I agree 100% with Sanayhs. The only thing that is truely unique and special about Kanga-Rouge (for me) is the packaging. You can find that color almost anywhere.

Maybe you can try to dab a little on your lips and blend it? Or top off with lipgloss. I'm pleasantly surprised that it sheer out beautifully, and it complements my skin tone. But I didn't get it. Saving for Hello Kitty!

Hello ladies, I just got back from my mini-haul.

I bought Coral Polyp, Gladiola, and Varicose Violet. Honestly I am very very happy with the products that I bought, because they are so gorgeous.

Gladiola looked sooooo good on me, that even the MA commented that it made my face look 'alive' (I guess he meant that it brightened up my face in a good way).

Splendid looked like an easily dupe-able color, Hot Frost was way too sheer that I could only see the sparkles on my lips (my dazzleglasses can achieve the same sparkly effect), and Possum Nose Pink turned out to be a lot more sheer than I had expected; it didn't wow me at first glance, but the pretty color slowly grew on me. Being a bold lips girl, I'll have to rethink whether I should buy it though.

 

[dreamer246]

Back from reading the Creme Team discussion (and I can't see my previous post again), just thought I'd say the doefoot applicator for these glosses are a big turnoff too.

I got the Royal Tour e/s trio but it turned out I already have the Climate Blue e/s, so I'm just going to return it. Anyways, does anybody know of dupes for the purple shadows? I was thinking of getting the pro pan of the dupes from the perm line, if they exist. I tried backreading and do the search but couldn't find if it was discussed before. TIA!

i bought all 3 l/s....i love them all, but Coral Polyp is way orange on me

Try wearing it as a stain and add a lipgloss over it?

 

[dreamer246]

For those who bought the eyeshadows, are they worth getting? I don't have any colors like those of the Royal Tour Trio, but um, I've heard that they're chalky (I didn't have time to swatch them in the store). Is the texture really very bad?

I have Wisteria Trio and don't think the shades are chalky

But I am not a good role model.. I ordered PNP.

 

[darkishstar]

Hahaha, go team no!
I didn't get Possum Nose Pink. I managed to escape with 2 lippies.
I only got Kanga-rouge because I've been lemming a red lippie for awhile, and it's Amplified creme, which is love! I didn't want a matte red, seemed too drying.

 

[GlamQueen21]

I got my Royal Tour e/s trio today!!!!!!!!!!! I love it so much!!!!! I cannot wait for my other DE collections to come in the mail!!!!

 

[SUMM3RxBABii]

haha i think the packing is cute but kinda tacky. i loveee Possum Pink Nose! It's kinda like Glamour O.D.

Save for BBR where you can get a more pigmented gloss. PNP doesn't impress me, as it's too sheer for me to love. Just say no!

 

[nadiya]

Possum Nose Pink was on my list untill I checked out Red Devil and Strawberry Blonde from the BBR collection. PNP looks a bit too glittery for me, though I know lots of people love that.

As an Australian I'm kinda disappointed that I'm not feeling the love for this collection. I do like the look of the Wisteria eyeshadow, but not enough to get the whole trio. Hmm, maybe I'll feel differently about this collection after looking at it IRL, it hasn't been released over here yet!

I got my coral polyp l/s in the mail today, but didn't get to try it on until now. I LOVE it!!! It can be worn now, but I think it'll be so nice for spring/summer. I'm so happy I decided to get it. It's actually because of darkishstar's lip swatches.. so thanks to her. It looked gorgeous on you darkish.. I'm very pleased with my purchase!

ok dame edna has finally hit NZ (along with chill). went in only planning to buy PNP, but the MA put the high light powders on me. i ended up getting spectackle! and i love it! it is perfect subtle blush for my skin (NC100). am totally considering to go back and get the other one. no lipstick love though
