I have such a thing for violet/violet pink these days

yeah, I will get a new Summer Rose to see the difference.

I know what you mean, there are always items from the perm line that I want that I have put off getting because I spend all my money on the LE collections!

Yay, I'm sure you'll have lots of fun. I went to my first preview party for the Spring Colour Forecast collection. It's pretty crowded but it's nice getting to see everything before it officially comes out!

*makes a note to check out Creme D'Nude*

Hard for me to justify, though, as I already have several nudes from several lines that already work well for me. Plus Boy Bait, which has to be the sexiest nude gloss EVER.

For the record, I love Hue and it's much more wearable on me than Myth, which gives me the "concealer lips" look. Not a good look for me. Myth is amazing on a lot of people, but not moi.

i haven't seen peachstock, but that is a definate for me to check out!

-B&B and bough grey (as if those weren't an obvious buy!

)
-free to be (didn't get it from POP, but getting it in gratis so

)
-shell pearl (i'll have 4 then! it truely is a gorgeous soft glow on us pasty caspers)
-blue india np

(even tho i haven't seen it yet, the colour description is enough to make me buy it.)
-both blushes (dirty plum to have for freelance work on darker skintones and to use lightly on myself, and prim and proper. based on my book swatch, it looks to be a dirtier version of the perfect cheek, which is my HG blush at the moment. hopefully its not too dirty

I think I am on the right track... before you posted your list, I had decided on mine... They are nearly identical!

Birds & Berries e/s
Bough Grey e/s
Blue India n/p
Prim & Proper Blush
Shell Pearl BP

I already have Dirty Plum & Summer Rose, and I will get Free to be in pan form at some point. The only other small possibility is GMLOL e/s, but only if the payoff is good. I am not sure about that one. I am SO excited for this collection!!

I imagine they can, just not take the drinks? Anyhow, I can't wait.. my wallet is going to suffer!

Yeah I asked that in my thread that I made about it. I called and asked them, and they said they check id's at the door, but you can still get in if you're under 21, they'll just put an X on your hand so they know not to serve you.

But yes. I'm wicked excited!!

I'll probably end up buying more than I was meaning to when I didn't think I was going.

Yay! I'm used to big crowds because I go to a lot of shows, so it shouldn't be that big of a deal. Still excited!




Question for anyone that's been to one though. When I called to RSVP, she told me she booked me for 8pm. Does that mean she booked me for a makeup application and I should go in with a bare face, or was she just giving me a time between 7pm and 9pm so they can spread out the thickness of the crowd??

Aha! It was just a different thread that it was posted in! Thanks for the info. And I hear you, I think every collection I end buying more than I intended on.. I planned on only getting Birds & Berries e/s and Bough Grey e/s but now I'm stoked so I think I'm also going to pick up Shell Pearl BP, A Different Groove l/g and Give me Liberty of London e/s.. hopefully I can convince myself to not get more than that!

Well, I haven't seen it yet, but it is supposedly a neutral nude. I am really liking the nude one from All Races (the name escapes me right now), so I want to check this one out. Erine said it is similar to, though a little dirtier than, the Perfect Cheek blush which I don't have. If it's good, I'd like to get it, partly to have a blush from this collection with the special packaging. My MA said she would probably have the LOL stuff next week when I go pick up my Too Fabulous stuff. I can't wait to see it!

 

[Hypathya]

Creme d'Nude is mine!!

I've just B2Med it!!

Thanks Audrey!!

Same! I didn't even know this blush existed. Does anyone know the finish of Prom & Proper blush? TIA.

Thanks dear! Well, I absolutely LOVE love the Perfect Cheek blush (so much I bought 2

) PC is an everyday wearable no makeup makeup blush & great for contouring under the cheekbone. I'm not sure that I would want a "dirtier" version of this color. But then, one nevers knows for sure. I'll have to wait until you see it

 

[shadowaddict]

I'm super excited about this collection. I really like the packaging. And my list looks pretty much like others here.

Birds & Berries e/s
Bough Grey e/s
Blue India n/p
Prim & Proper Blush
Shell Pearl BP
Ever Hip l/s

 

[gachapin_luv]

I am interested in Prim and Proper, but I hope it's not too brown. I don't know if I should skip it b/c I bought Azalea Blossom and Ripe Peach from SCF, and I will buy Rhapsody in Two and Two Virtues from Too Fabulous. So, I def. need to know if it's a must-have color or not.

"Prim and Proper" reminds of my mother(eek) - she was always saying that to me that I have to be prim & proper, I have to look presentable when I step out the house, etc
