I love love rock with lavenders/purples. I wore it with my beautiful iris, knight devine in outer crease, pink hello kitty glitter liner and fashion mews lipstick and I loved the look. But yeah I got Love rock and moon river and I love them both. I am going back for grand duo and do I really need intenso? I can't decide. I am skipping sugarsweet so I am good.

OMG, so beautiful!
I'm seriously glad I ordered Love Rock now! Even if it's the only one I'm getting.
I really want Hot Planet now too.. but I'm going to stay strong and just get one.

Wow, the color swatches look very pretty. I'm so glad that I got Grand duo & Love Rock as I think they are beautiful colors. I am a blush whore though

Yay for you Yagmur, and am glad that Andrea got to do some makeup on you too! Your bonding time must've been amazing.

I hate to be an enabler, especially when I'm trying to cut down myself, but...
I saw these today and they are really pretty. I was worried they would be glittery, but that isn't the case. The are very shimmery, but not chunky. I was going to only purchase one, but couldn't! Although, I didn't end up with four like I wanted!!! I swatched Moon River, Grand Duo, Hot Planet, Earth to Earth and Love Rock. They were all pretty. The swatches on here are pretty accurate. I ended up with Grand Duo and Hot Planet. I skipped Moon River, although it is a beautiful colour, I felt (from swatching, not actually trying it on) that I would have to apply it heavily to show up on me, and then it ended up looking too frosty. Earth to Earth was suprisingly pretty, but difficult to describe... a very earthy (thus the name) bronze-y peachy shade and with slightly plummy tones to it. But I didn't give in, because i have a couple of the bronzy MSF's. I swatched all of them by running my finger over both sides, to get a true idea of the colour.
I don't however feel that the price is quite warranted, i think that the $25 they charged last year for the mineralized blushes was really pushing it. Fortunately I had my Bay beauty VIP card that saved me $10, so i guess I can say that I got these for $22 each! (And I'm stealing my mom's $10 for Sugarsweet!)
And I should add, that these were very pigmented (Moonriver not as much).

Blush whore indeed though! Because they'll look so pretty on you.

Oh my goodness! Hahahah, I really want Hot Planet now, but I'm really trying to stick to just Love Rock! These sound like a mixture of both MSF and blush, which is amazing sounding don't you agree?
Do you think I'll regret not getting Hot Planet? Because honestly, I tried to skip Electroflash and get away with just getting 2 duos, but I'm on the hunt now for Sea and Sky and recently found Odd Couple.

I went yesterday thinking they would be available but they werent. They told me today they would be out, but my MUA buddy hooked me up and showed me the display and let me play with the Grand Duo's a bit. im not much into shimmery items BUT this mineralized blushed drove me crazy. I did get danity and Warm soul which arent duo's but are mineralized blushes. When I swatched them I just went nuts with the idea of a blushcreme and a grand duo blush mixed with fix+!!!!! the finish would be out of control. Has anyone NC45 gotten any of these and swatched them? i liked how it looked on my hand but Im concerned on my face it will dissapoint me.

They really are a combination of MSF and blush. As for Hot Planet, it would look gorgeous on you, because it actually comes out kinda corally, and we already know you look stunning in those types of colours. (Sorry, i really don't mean to enable... really).
