Pearlglides!!!!! I wish that I owned Wolf, Bankroll, Spare Change, Molasses and Fly-by-Blu. Even though I've seen Black Russian and Molasses on ACW! I'm in a need of a backup of Black Russian and Rave pearlglides.

I failed at my attempt to stay away from this collection. I had my sister pick up Boy Bait for me yesterday since I am still sick. She also placed an order for all THREE pigment sets

I love Black Russian! It's the only black liner I have that doesn't smudge under my eye on my lower lash line. Yes, I have Feline

Thank goodness I got a backup of Black Russian; I did so because I heard (probably on Specktra!) that it is versatile and can be set with any colour of e/s. FYI, I don't even set it and it stays put.

to be fair if you don't have many pigments the little sets are a great way of trying them out. plus if you find a colour you don't like you can always give them to friends or family as gifts!

I also use Black Russian as a base for other smudging eye liners, it turns out any blah eyeliner into a wow eyeliner and prevent them from smudging

i love these mini pigment sets, especially since i cannot see myself ever finishing any of my full-sized pigment jars. i have to skip on them this year though, each set contains at least 2 pigments i already have

ONLY 1 WEEK til the lipglass and pigment sets arrive to Canada/US!

I want the Sexy Shenanigans set but also love one (maybe 2) of the pinks in the Frisky Business set! *drool*

For the pigment sets, I am liking Haute High Jinks and Sexpot, however I am trying not to buy either one!

In the Sexpot set the only LE is Sunnydaze, which I am really liking. The rest are perm and can be bought if I really love any of them. But this is also a great way to try several colours at about 1/3rd of the cost. Plus I imagine even the mini ones last you a long time unless you used it daily

I have one mini pigment in Gold Mode and I only ever need to use very little at a time

As for the Haute High Jinks set, 4 of the 5 are LE. I look at it this way because I have to be careful what I spend. So I really will need to see swatches before I can decide if I can pass or cannot live without these

So excited to see them!

anyone know if there's a dupe for Sunnydaze? I have the rest of the colors in the kit and can't justify the price tag for one color

I think the closest dupe would be Grape pigment, although there is a slight difference in the way that it reflects.


She is talking about Push The Edge pigment here. HTH!

i have both grape and push the edge and the look practically identical. however i prefer how grape applies when dry - push the edge is a little chalky... not a big niggle but something to think about

fab colours though!

^^Thanks guys for your replies. My daughter and I both love purple so still haven't decided on what to get. I only have the piggie sets from last year that I got when they went on sale. I figured that was a good way to try them out instead of buying full size and since they were on sale it made them an even better deal.

They had the mini pigments out today at Nordies for pre-order (for half yearly sale). I wish you could do mix and match. That would be a neat idea! As there are colors I like from all three sets.

A couple years ago I asked one of the MA's at Nordstrom if I could mix and match, just joking, and she gave me THE dirtiest look LOL. I found it funny but apparently she didn't. But that would be awesome if we could do that. I bet more people would buy them!

I guess I will skip the pigment sets again, not enough colours I like to get one set.
