Finnaly some pics, although I can't say I am very impressed. I was looking forward to the teal one being a teal lover, but it looks like a color that has been done over and over. The only one I maybe want to get at this point is the light pink one but Ill have to swatch in person.
Someone said that swatches make them buy more than they usually would just going to a store, I find this true to myself as well. So from a financial point of view, I guess the lack of swatches is a good thing. lol

Oh gosh, my thoughts word for word, and I was really looking forward to this collection. These pics make the shadows look a little...dusty? I dunno. They don't look as vibrant as I'd imagined. Definitely gonna wait until it hits stores.

I did say that
I am underwhelmed by the photos hopefully future pics and swatches will change that.

Yes, I can't wait for swatches! Remember even the lighting in those pics, whether it be the type of lighting or even the angle the pic was taken at, may be affecting the colour.

It's nice to actually see some of the colours, though I think the watermark is in the way and the picture is bleached a bit. Can't wait for real swatches (i.e. Erin) and those pics don't show the ego colour . Really wish we had other pictures (i.e. ones I can use on my blog too!)

OH dear. All of this waiting, and these are the shadows? Here I was expecting to spend a good $175 to $200 on this collection, and now i am not sure I will buy anything.

Sometimes it takes at least two set of pictures to get the ball rolling on people's decisions. I suspect the lighting in these photos to not be so great so I am still holding out hope for certain colours. If not, money saved for me.
I fell in love with Center Stage and Dalliance when I saw them used in a look on a couple of models. Those are colours I'd use most often so I'm looking at those first, but in total - I'm waiting on swatches for 8 of them

Well I`ll buy plenty of them, mostly because of the texture, for sure the light colors first, the purple and a brown one

I would definitely not make any final decisions only after seeingthese pics: they're only good to get an idea about the colours!
These pictures were most likely taken a bit sneakily with phone cameras; most eyeshadows have lids closed, which distorts the actual colour of the shadows and doesn't let you see the texture really well (besides, maybe, that close-up of the purple shadow); the lighting might have been a bit crap, like Teresita says...
Plus, since these are mega METALS, the texture of the shadow in the pan hardly reflects the actual look of it when swatched. That's why we loved HerGreyness' photos!

Ahhh something to finally look at! Thank you HerGreyness!
I think they look AMAZING in their pots and I like a lot of them swatched too. That orange is especially amazing but I'm not sure I need another orange shadow. And the green and the reddened bronze one will be mine for sure I think.
