This is the same problem I am having, it looks "different" so I "need" it

Nine times out of 10, the lemming dies down and I move on to the next new thing.

I try to do that but as soon as I know my lemming isn't leaving & go to buy it I notice its sold out & then the lemming grows into psycho monster-sized lemming from hell

swatch time *excited* too bad i am not allowed to get anything from this collection. liberty of london ate my wallet. *sad* PAP is such a pretty collection.

 

[AudreyNicole]

Wheeeeee! The swatches of Instant Chic has kicked that lemming into high gear. Gosh, I don't usually get excited about peach/coral, but this blush looks perfect! So pretty!

 

[Lialani]

Instant Chic looks so similar to Dainty in overall color appearance minus shimmer. Or is it just my monitor? I'd be sad if it turns to be just as sheer as Dainty. Love you Dainty anyways

 

[peachsuns]

Both blushes look gorgeous!

Just curious, are there any permanent blushes look like them?

 

[HOTasFCUK]

aghhhhh she saved the lip stuff for last!!! I'm passing up the eyeshadows and blushes. The eyeshadows seem way too similar to what i have although tissueweight is tempting me and the blushes seem too matte almost. I just love shimmer but who knows, my self-control can go out the window tomorrow when i go see the collection in person!

Her pic of coral crepe p/p looks sooooo pretty, almost like pink grapefruit lipgloss for the eyes. Its what i've been hoping Fold & Tuck lipgloss will be like.

I was originally only planning on getting instant chic and one of the lipsticks, but I think I might get one of the chromagraphic pencils too. I don't get a lot of sleep and i always look tired so maybe that will help.

 

[kpenn]

Wow, her swatches have really blown this collection wide open for me. There goes my self-restraint!

I'm now sort of wanting all of the eye shadows, both Instant Chic AND Garb, and a chromographic pencil...not to mention the lip products which I'm sure will get me

I've swatched Sumptuous Olive recently and it's really awesome. i've had it on my wish list for some time, but I haven't gotten around to it yet.

 

[blusherie]

Instant Chic looks so pretty, and I don't want to miss out on it like I did with Ripe Peach....do you all think it will work well on someone who is around NC 35? I don't want it to look ashy....TIA

 

[HOTasFCUK]

I think i need to see the chromographic pencils on somebody. Don't all shoot me at once but it looks like concealer as a liner. I'm not crazy for it!!! But if it does make me look bright eyed and alert, i may have to give it a try!

I just refreshed temptalia and how did i know that she would do the nailpolish swatches before the lipstuff?? I want to see them badly......i need to have a mental shopping list before i go to the mall tomorrow.

 

[RayannaBanana]

I'm glad I skipped this actually. I can save up now!

I need to see this on someone too, it just sounds strange to me so I need to see it in action before I really pass any judgment

And OMG Originality n/p is gorgeous!

 

[Shadowy Lady]

ok, no more skipping for me, Originality n/p will be mine

the other one looks too dark too be nude on me, pass! Also love the swatch of Coral Crepe p/p. I'll prob pick these two items tomorrow

 

[Princesa Livia]

I really wanted to skip this collection too, but seeing her photos it's too difficult! I want a chromagraphic pencil now, and Coral Crepe and Instant Chic are eating away my self-control.

Not to enable or anything (

), but looking at your pic, I think Instant Chic would look really great on you.

I'm doomed

[bumblebees24]

I think Instant Chic will be sold out as quick as Ripe Peach Ombre!

 

[perfectdefect]

Just looking at the swatches does cut to fit look anything like brash from the spiced chocolate quad?

 

[AudreyNicole]

I am weak in the knees for Gazette Grey and Tissueweight (but don't tell Shontay.)

And is it bad to be contemplating a backup of Instant Chic before I have seen it in person?
