I cannot even imagine any colors not looking good on you! How about a light application of So Scarlet lippie or Cult of Cherry lg?

btw: You look incredible (like a princess) in your new picture!

I'm so undecided about this collection. I was really liking the Spiced Choc quad, but after reading everyones reviews on how dupable all these are... I can do without. But I really like the lipsticks O & Lightly Ripe!
They are beautiful! I know I'll be def getting those two. I like the Cherry Blossom lipglass but from what I see, it looks too comparable to Sugar Trance, which I have and use.

Cult of Cherry a brighter red right? I got my first 2 France OPI's today - You Don't Know Jacques! and Parlez Vous OPI? When I haul CoC, I am going to grab a few more. I am thinking Eiffel for This color and one other of the darker ones

they aren't as dry as mattes, so they're a bit easier to apply with a brush.

aren't the opi color gorgeous!?!? when you look at YDKJ in direct sun, it turns a mossy green color. very transformer-like. i'd recommend one of the darker colors for you, but seeing as how i bought the entire line (minus 3 colors), i can't narrow down a single one for you.

that's exactly how i was describing it. the the nail verson of s&d!

haha!! i only wish it were like that but sadly no...i tried out port red and it just didn't suit me at all and everyone was raving about it. *sigh* i was thinking about trying out So Scarlet...it's more of a berry red not a true red...right? Cult of Cherry l/g omg i love the color...i'll try them out the way you suggested and i hope it works!!

haha thank you!! i got bored so i got out the jewelry i dont wear too often and just started taking pics!! this of course after trying out the new starflash shadows i got to using finally.

I got to go to the event in Toronto for this collection; Believe me when I say you WILL NOT be disappointed!!! The pictures do not this collection justice. I picked up the tempting quad, the O lipstick, and the Jampacked lipglass... I skipped on the blushes only because I bought five from the Sonic Chic collection and my bank account just wouldn't allow it... LOL

agreed! it's my favorite! i bought a fullsize of that one & the mini pack that has a couple of the purpley shades. but all in all i LOVE this collection from OPI, though You Don't know Jacques is my favorite I think. Well that or Eiffel for this Shade, one of the two. I'm wearing YDKJ today w/ a smokey grey eye and it's sooo lovely! i'm in love (plus OPI's texture is better then MAC)

oooh & i have an appt to get my MU done at the CoC event next thursday, soo excited. I will definitively decide what I am getting then! whoo!

Mission Jacques accomplished

and it is indeed beautiful. I'm doing a mani with it tonight, even though it's still August.

ETA: and it the second to last one left at my Ulta. It took all my strength not to take the last bottle as well. I'll probably regret it later.

Yay! I am so glad you were able to snag one!

And pffft, who cares if it's August! I already used it on my toes

I totally love this color!

grow more hands?

It is seriously gorgeous though. It's a lot more complex a color than it looks like in the bottle.

cough: I may have picked up Parlez vous OPI as well.
Hey! It was pretty and I have no willpower.

Great minds think alike!

Those are the only 2 I have so far from the collection, and I love them both! I can't wait for CoC to launch, then I will feel complete

Yup, at first I thought it was just another lavender polish, but it has this smoky tinge in it thats to die for in the light. Those two struck me as really unique. Also have you seen the Sephora/OPI Metro Chic polish yet? It is taupey-lavender-o-licious. Me wantz!

i want the spiced chocolate quad so bad...i'm going to give up my quad virginity. love.

I was eyeing this online - have you seen it in person? How similar is it to YDKJ?

I know but I have Cranberry, NYX Rust e/s and pigment (the pigment looks like the colourforms red), Embark, A little Folie, Shadowy Lady, Folie, 3 or 4 oranges from various companies and I want to do it, money not an issue, just buying unnecessarily dupes or close too the color, but I do want it so. Check out DRbrooklyn tut on YT, she makes me want it even more.

Wow. Now I must find a way to own that pallette. I don't care if I already have Cranberry and the red shadow from colour forms. I don't care if I really shouldn't buy anything since my poor dear car required repairs. I will eat ramen for a month.
