I just want the lipglasses; nothing else really appeals to me!

The good thing is now I have more money for the BBR collection.

What are you getting from Chill?

Could you post the link to the Dame Edna swatches please?

I personally don't like the packaging...purple with glasses on it?? Strange...Normally I am a sucker for packaging, but I know that I probably will need to see these items in person before I decide to get anything cause nothing is standing out to me.

PS, I know I could totally google this but just wondering who is dame edna? Comedian?? Ummm..is it a he or a she?? Serious question!! lol...

hopefully the link works. I just copied and pasted.

I am planning getting all the e/s and all the lippies except Snowscene cuz to me it looks like my sugarrimmed d/g. That may change when I try it in person but as off right now I'm not getting that one.

Mmmm, truthfully nothing is still appealing to me.
All of the lippies really aren't anything we haven't seen before.

I believe that Dame Edna is a he dressed as a she. I think that she would be considered an entertainer more than a comedian but she does both.

I agree.

He's an Australian comedian and has been doing so many appearances as Dame Edna, for so many years that you just buy into the persona.

jdechant, once you see the character of Dame Edna, you'll appreciate the packaging, it really fits with the character!

 

[jdechant]

Maybe I shall google Dame Edna tonight...thanks girls!!

I have my eyes on a couple of lipsticks and a lipgloss, but I still want to see everything in person first!

Can anyone label the lipglosses and lipsticks for me? I'm confused trying to match which is which.

but for the exception of the shadow palettes, the glasses are a sticker and you can take them off.

 

[purrtykitty]

All three glosses, please!
