thanks for the 411!! Makes skipping Snowglobe a lot easier =)I went to my Nordies counter to preview/preorder today...**The only thing I didn't see was the pigment gift sets
I pre-ordered:
"What Joy" lipstick ...close to Hang-Up but slightly more...berry/pink...gorgeous and right up my alley
Snow Season MES...described as a soft brown, I would describe it more as a peachy pink beige (gorgeous wet especially)
Sultry e/s palette: Couldn't resist these colors!! Gah. Berrys, browns, right up my alley. Yes please and thank you.
*****What I was tempted to get/what I think is going to be popular:
The paint pots are GORGEOUS...especially the pale pink one with shimmer (Let's Skate) and the taupe (Morning Frost). I skipped on pale pink because I know it won't show up on me, and the taupe was too similar to something I have from Benefit. But no doubt about it, people are going to freak over these...prettty.
I was tempted to buy Frozen blue MES...it's a gorgeous gray leaning light blue with shimmaaaa lol. Its so vibrant, omg. Perfect Ice Skaters blue. But I knew I wouldn't use it. So alas I parted ways, with great sadness.
One of the sets which I *think* is the Warm Fabulously Flawless Face Kit (tho the colors Temptalia is naming is not what I recall seeing in this palette?): A couple of the e/s were SO gorgeous...one was a darker/less copper version of Antiqued. and one was a darker version of Expensive Pink e/s. GAH. I didn't like the blush or l/g that came with it though and the particular brushes are useless to me...so..I had to pass...At least for now lol.
And lastly, the item I had the hardest time saying no to "Snowglobe" beauty powder...its a subtle, sheeny cheek highlight that will look gorgeous on fair/pale girls especially...but it really was SUBTLE. I felt like it wasn't different enough from my HG highlighter to have both. Finely milled and would be gorgeous over blush

a guy at work had an eye infection that left his eye blood red for days... it was like he turned evil or something!
Please let us know which Benefit one you think its similar too! This might make my temptation go away as i have most of the Benefit ones!
I'm optimistic that everybody who sees this collection in person seems to like it overall and find a couple things they loveJust got home from Update.....
O-M-G.I want it all! I guess if I had place the products:
Gold Medal : "Skate With Me" Paint Pot
Silver Medal : "Shimmermint" Mineralize Eye Shadow
Bronze Medal: "Glitter & Ice" Dazzleglass
The collection is just beautiful!
Yes, it has high frost and shine, but not as much as I had thought. Even if you are not a " glitter" lover, no worries...I tried out the paint pots with some regular shadows and they are just stunning. SWM p/p on a bare lid is actually quite pretty. "For Effect" was not nearly as dark as it looked in the pot, pretty versatile color. The 2 beauty powders were even a surprise. Im not usually a big fan of those, however these both give the skin that perfected glow without the glittery texture. "Whirls & Twirls" lipstick was the over all pick of lipsticks, such a chameleon---it looked completely different on every person, but we all loved it.
I never made a list because Im just going to face the fact that this is the one collection I may just flat out have to have in all its sparkling glory.
Not for me if it helps make babies
