Yeah all of those Blush Ombres look like perm Estee Lauder blushes (the nuance family as I call it because they have Nude Nuance, Plum Nuance, Rose Nuance, and then Peach Nuance!) So I might actually skip those I think if all else fails I will get both quads for sure and maybe the Pink/Purple pigment stack, lippies I am totally not sure about : /

I think the Blush Ombres are going to be the product to have from this collection. I'm pretty certain I'm passing on the pink/purple crushed metal pigments, and I may pass on the neutral ones, too. It just seems like a lot of money for a little product. Maybe once I see them in person I'll be wowed? So much of the rest of the collection seems dupeable, except those Ombres!

Completely agree with you. Blush Ombres are THE product of this collection!!!

I want to go to the Estee Lauder counter to see them myself. I'd really love to see comparisons between Nuance blushes and Blush Ombres!!!

OH yes!!!

 

[sapnap]

the quads for sure!! esp the purple, I have no purples except for Young Punk and these look like a great start

.. plus the blush ombres (depending on which ones are unique in shade) and the lippies... am actually getting quited bummed with the lipglosses, hate the white rim that forms inside the lip, anyone else getting this and any tips for not?

 

[shimmergrass]

i really want the purple quad and pigment stacks...

is it the same as normal pigments?? any ideas?

I signed up to go to the Spring Colour Forecast Event for February 2nd!! I'm so excited!!

 

[abbyquack]

Hey, not sure if this has already been mentioned, but in the Feb issue of Marie Claire, they have a picture of Phlox l/s (p. 50) and Pink Burst l/s (p. 147)-

they are both gorgeous, but I think Phlox is more my style. I just wonder if it will be what I'm looking for, since it is a lustre. I enjoy lustres once in a while, but I've been looking for a nicely pigmented light pink. Sigh..

 

[TeresitaMC]

Oooh thanks! I'd love to see that.
I am pretty sure I will be getting Phlox

I'm most confused about the single eyeshadows, I have no idea which ones I will get or won't get until I see swatches I guess. The rest I am pretty decided on

but swatches will just confirm. Can't wait

 

[Vlcatko]

After much pondering, looking at pictures and more thinking I am still convinced that the only thing I will -possibly- buy is the Color 4 quad. I love neutrals and as I didn't buy any eyeshadows from W&C nor do I plan to buy any from the All Ages, AR, AS collection... If the Ombre blush in Springshine had 50:50 ratio of the colors I would get it too but it is too much of the darker color to my liking

I am confused about them too. It's a little bit of an overkill in my opinion. There are already quads and crushed pigments in the collection. Too many items at once besides their 4 different color themes.

Ok I will take loads of pics for you girls! It sucks that you both have to wait until March for this collection to be release. Why not release it on the 11th everywhere?

yes osmetimes it's frustrating being left so far behind. but then other times i think it's good because it gives us time to read reviews and see more swatches

I remember trying the Nuance stuff several years ago and I didn't find anything that I really liked. In fact most of what I tried was that kind of "put it down and slowly back away" response.
I hope the blush ombres are better than that...

i agree, i love looking at swatches beforehand! makes it so much easier to narrow down my list of what i want. i do get impatient though..
i've skipped on so many collections lately, i finally want some new stuff!!
