I'm just waiting to see the yellow pigment. Then I can decide between it and Lily White. Nothing else for me.

Haha smart girl. I never have any summer holiday money cuz im a makeup whore. I want some damn swatches tho its like porn for me.
I do have my eye on the playland lipstick and the egg yellow lipglass, could wear that during the day in Ibiza. Otherwise, no money will be spent and I'll be left mixing piggies to make a random lip colour

Ibiza huh.... i need to save some money!!! My dream is Rio and Belize. Hey even Mexico lol. Well my dream is to move somewhere tropical. I have always loved palm trees and hot weather. And i give u props on the creativity of mixing pigments like that!!! Its cool. I love mixing colors. Used to oil paint and i loved oils cuz they dry slow and u can keep mixing them on the canvas. Colors are so fun to play with

Do you want a really yellow color? Because depending on your skin tone, Lilly-White doesn't come off that yellow. It's pretty sheer (thought buildable) and on me, just blends with my skin tone for a subtle brightening effect. It's not stop traffic yellow in any way.

Im still undecided on my wishlist for this collection. Im not sure if I should try a casual colour since I skipped them the last time. I kinda wanted weekend gettaway but it was sold out when I decided that I wanted it.. although it will be more of a lip product for me, im not into cream blushes.. curse of having oily skin. ={

I also have very oily skin but found i like my casual color still. i set a lil powder over it. and if its just for lips i would skip unless you really want the color. it works on lips good but not great.

hmm it sounds a bit like the nars multiples... thats the only cream product ive ever worn on my cheeks, it works nice actually but for lips not so much.

I guess it must depend on your skin, because my casual colors work better on my lips than on my cheeks, where I find they never dry down as much as I'd like - they feel a little heavy…and I like the Cremeblend blushes.

I think Casual Colors is a kind of weird product that's better for people who either don't have a lot of makeup already and/or people who love a monochrome look or just want a super simple makeup routine with one product and out the door. If you're ready, willing and able to use separate lip and cheek products, even on the go, the Casual Colors aren't specialized enough for lip or cheek for someone who is particular about their makeup and knows what works really well vs. what works well enough for convenience.

One thing, the last batch of CCs had some really nice colors, and that's what made me buy them, but just in general, I'm not crazy about products in pots I'll have to use a lip brush or my fingers with - if they made something like the CCs but that came in a tube or a stick, I'd be more inclined to get use out of them.
