i'm still not so patiently wating for this collection - just like all the other european specktra members!
Me too!!
This collection will arrive a week after my birthday so I'm going to buy myself a lot of things ;P
Mating call and flaunting it were the first products on my list... then I've added paparazz- she ... noir plum, unflappable and finally also spectacle of yourself!!

I know what you mean about not being able to get enough of certain colors. I am that way about taupes and neutrals that lean purple/plum/lavender (like Hypnotizing and Prepped for Glamour) I got SoY anyway. It's richer and more visually interesting than Antiqued so I caved. Plus the texture is awesome and you can wear it wet. I also got Tweet Me (I don't have Melon because it swatches gold with no melon-ness on me, plus it has more color pay off and is more pink than Urban Decay's X and it's less overpowering than the Loose Pigment version of X which is like powdered gold). I also picked up Unflappable; I was finally able to compare it side by side with Smut (which I brought with me since Smut is a store/online only shade) and Unflappable is warmer, plummier, and browner and Smut leans more black and I rock the hell out of colors like that anyway so I know I'll use it. Maybe now I can give my Bobbi Brown eye shadow in After Hours a rest since I don't have a b/u. And I also picked up Top of the Posh and Prance. I didn't swatch Peek-At-You for fear I would like it and Sex-Pectations on me is exactly the same as Cranberry, like identical. I was returning Odalisque today because it was given to me by mistake instead of Ego. I just could not convince myself to keep it - normally I love teals and turquoises but I think UD's Haight looks better. Does anyone else think Odalisque's texture is not as great as the other shadows? So now I own all but 3 shadows from the collection and I am fairly certain I am done now. Whew!SoY is a little more orange than Antiqued. I have DeVil and on the lid it looks like SoY. I say they are all in the same color family. It just depends on how much you feel you would get use out of the color. Personally, I feel like there are certain colors I can't get enough of, dupes or not.
I may still haul Sexpectations. Its such a pretty deep pink on. Sometimes I get in the mood for pink

Noir Plum is not similar to MUFE 92 in color, finish or texture. It is so pretty. The closest thing to it that I already have are UD Ransom Deluxe Shadow and the center stripe from Togetherness MES, but neither is a dupe for Noir Plum.

I think Noir Plum is very close to Stila Cassis.

Good for you! My first day list was Tweet Me and Flaunting It.
Ever since then (and the swatches and discussion in Specktra) I've added a couple of temptation list:
- I know I will be tempted with Odalisque but I'm still not sure because I don't use the color often.
- If Noir Plum leans to blue on me, I will probably get it too. I wonder how similar it is with MUFE #92 though.
- Dalliance, because everyone said it's a great color, I have to check it out.

[/quote] I concur, Noir Plum is nothing like #92. Completely different purples and I love them both. Oh and if you have Strike A Pose, leave Odalisque behind (just my opinion). I am out of my shadow funk! I'm going out and decided to give these babies another shot. I got Dalliance on the inner eye, Strike A Pose on the outer and Centre Stage in the crease. I love it! Every time I try a look that fails I get frustrated and swear off buying anymore shadow, but today has restored my faith.

I think so too. When i was swatching last night i though that is Cassis and UD Ransom had a baby it would be Noir Plum.

I love greens so Ego is screaming "Buy Me", anything close to this? Dalliance or Tweet Me looked liked like it would pair well with Ego. I was trying to stay away from these and ease up on my shadow purchases but this new formula is really calling my name. The purples look nice also, but I find I wear greens more often. Thanks
Shontay, sorry if I missed this earlier but is UD Mowie Wowie a dupe for Dalliance? I saw you did a side by side in the swatch thread but my monitor is kinda wonky. I have Mowie Wowie in probably more than one UD palette but I don't hink I've ever touched it.
