i love red too! that's why my hot contrast is basically black and red.

Yeah, I remember reading that. I just assumed that she was referring to the new duos since those were the one we were talking about on the phone...so they'll rotate the new ones back in ...eventually?

My MA told me that they'd be made perm back when i called her before the collection came out but i wasn't sure. So it's good to hear that confirmed on here.

 

[gigglegirl]

i hope and assume (perhaps wrongly) that some of these will make reappearances. but which? don't know. will be interesting to see

So if I had the choice of getting Fresh Green Mix, Fast Thrill, or a Mineralized Blush, which should I leave out? If Fast Thrill is similar to Bombshell, (which I can always get), should I leave that out? Fresh Green Mix is so pretty, but is it more of a "summery" shadow? I'm trying to narrow down whats in my cart!

I'd say leave out the lipstick. Fresh Green Mix is gorgeous, and I am LOVING the mineralize blushes I got. The lippies didn't seem that unique to me. Just my opinion though

Ditto.

Hello all you lovely ladies!!
I am as excited about these MES's as many of you are and I thought I'd share my first try outs with you

Fresh Green Mix with Solar White as highlight

Pink Split with Solar White as highlight, Sharkskin below lower lashline and Blackground above upper lashline

Hot Contrast with Vapour as highlight

I can't wait to get the others!!!

 

[blackrose]

I'm also thinking of getting Sonic Vibe. Does anyone know if this has a dupe? I remember Elegant-One mentioning that it was really pretty...

Help any ladies w/ NW15 coloring!
What are the must-haves from this collection?
i've already gotten Sea & Sky, Fresh Green Mix, Pink Split & Love Connection, Mellow Mood & Culture Clash ...but I think I might want to go back and get Polar Opposites, Hot contrast, and possibly play on plums... are these also necessities??
(i def think i want polar opposites cause i have no silvers and it looks AMAZING!)
also maybe sonic vibe l/g.. anyone have a swatch on lips (less pigmented if possibly cause mine aren't very)

thanks =)

I am a fair NW20 and I LOVE Hot Contrast. It makes a beautiful smokey eye. And the black can be applied sheer for a dull grey, or built up for a frosty black.

And YOU GUYS my new favorite lip is Soar lipliner, Vanity's Child lipstick, with Cultureclash Lipglass. Vanity's Child gives a golden hue to the lips, and also since it's so sheer, it sheers out the lipglass. It makes it less glitter-frost bomb, and gives it a juicy look with a bit of frost. It is SOOO gorgeous. I really want Vanity's Child because I have Cultureclash and I think it'd gross alone! Vanity's Child makes it look so juicy and perfect. I'll post pics when my camera works!!!!!
