Don't get backups! That should save money for other collections. Unless it's a color that you know you'll love and will get a ton of use, there will always be other collections and similar colors.

I realize this might come off as completely crazy…. but my list is still at $240 for this collection. (that includes tax and backups)

I don't want to spend that much and I have to keep reminding myself Proenza is like a week after.

Woah Chill out. Remember there's juicier stuff coming out! Do you have any depots maybe ? B2m? I've gathered enough for 3 b2m during the last depot parties I did at home. Massive blush depot and also used up a lot of stuff.. I finished bb, foundation, lip primer, and I'm feeling like these will be the lippys I'll get with that... Yes.

I was just about to give up on this collection. Tx for the swatches and pictures. I still may skip this due to wanting more stuff from Moody Blooms, The Osbournes, Alluring Aqua and whatever else is hiding in the wings from MAC for us. If I do decide to get any lippies from this collection it wold be Red Balloon and Happy Go Lucky.

Toying Around is my kind of color, but I don't want an amplified. Skip. Karen made this collection look very cute, though.

Hopefully, we'll get to see lip swatches on another blogger with more subtle application skills soon.  I pretty sure this whole collection will be a skip for me.  I'm not sassy enough to carry off these bright colours.

As a lipstick "slatherer" myself I appreciate a blogger that wears things full strength. Or at least tests them this way, I've found the default for many bloggers is to test a lipstick that's been blotted and reapplied a few times and that's just not how I wear my lipstick. I think most cosmetic blogs err on the side of subtlety, so I am pleased there is one that does not.

This collection is underwhelming, I haven't been wowed by a lip color, since I purchased a lip maestro #505 from Armani ♡ it. I'm skipping this collection the anticipation was 2 gr8t & MAC has disappointed.....my bank account & hubby are pleased & I'm secretly happy:)

Okay, you guys are right. Everything just looks soooo pretty. Okay I'll cut out one lipstick and the casual colors. And MAYBE a lip glass. This is going to be really hard when I go into the store that day….

For some reason my store doesn't B2M on LE collections. I've already asked and the girl flat out said "NOPE!" …...I do have some stuff to b2m so maybe if I give the puppy eyes they'll let me slide or maybe I'll try a counter and see. For the most part though they seem pretty strict on it. I tried for FOF and for Punk Couture if I remember correctly.

Her reviews? are always on the safe side, but she does like nice playing with the Playland pieces.

Exactly my thoughts. Karen seems like an awesome blossom but she is either less critical or more accepting then I am when it comes to a number of products. It's probably a result of her seeming to have a sweeter nature then Yours Truly.

Toying Around and Red Balloon for me. I'm glad for the delay because I probably would have got Happy Go Lucky too and after seeing T and Karen's swatches I'm not crazy about it, plus I'm positive I could dupe it.

Okay I can cut out 3 of the lip glass

The yellows are so disappointing. I guess people really were just using the pigment on their lips.

Just Live It Up and Pure Silliness for me.

So I think my final list will be:
Lipstick:
1- Playland (the payoff sucks but it's freakin' yellow!!)
2- Sweet Experience (1 for me and 1 for my mom because she said she liked it)
2-Happy-Go-Lucky (NEED NEED)
2-Toying Around (NEEEEEEEDDDDDDDDD!!!!!!)

That puts me at $112 so far (not including tax)

Lip Glass:
1- Live It Up
1- Pure Silliness

Those two would be $30 (minus tax which'll make it 32.10 if I remember correctly)

So now I'm under $150 all together. I did good….. RIGHT?! SOMEONE TELL ME THIS IS GOOD. *pats my own back and tells myself I did good*

Well swatches put me at one lippie. This collection isn't all that its cracked up to be. Just one lippie and blush from prozena that's it.
