Glad to hear you're ok Babylard!
Went to my appt. today and I ended up buying both pigment stacks. My MA did a wonderful purpley smokey look on me with the Summer Stash stack. I also ended up with Gilded White liner and Sun Blonde, which I wasn't expecting to get either.

Had an awesome event today! I was not so sure about this collection at first, but after working with it a couple days now I have to admit Im really loving this one The colors are amazing, my favs have been the STO Pigments, MP Cheek Powder ( although it was sold out day one, no surprise there) , Surf USA, Saffron, Sun Blonde, Hibiscus LS and the Nail Polishes.

so i tired a look with the surf the ocean pigment stack, and it didnt seem to blend very well and when i did blend it, it blended either patchy or completely into nothingness.. i used them dry on top of primer potion, i used the minty green and the dark green/blue, is it better if you dont use two together?
how have you guys used it?

Yesterday I used the minty shade (Aquamarine) over primer potion and when I just blended into my lid, it seemed to disappear too! But then it occurred to me to just dip the brush into the pigment, tap off excess and the pat all over the lid. After, I blended it out and it seemed to do the trick for me. It didn't appear crazy pigmented but it showed a lot more.
HTH!
I seriously love the pigment stack and I'm soooo glad I own it.
One thing I didn't like is that the color doesn't seem to photograph too well... or maybe it's just my camera failing.
HTH!
And a couple of my eye look from yesterday coz I just can't help myself. XD

I also agree that Surf the Ocean is the one to get. SS is very pretty, but I also think that it is a lot more dupable. The light green pigment from STO is amazing!

"I've been thinking about those two shadows also. Could anyone help? Any thoughts? I have only two gray eye shadows: Bough Grey and the light gray in my Graphic Garden palette. You can tell I"m no gray e/s expert.

Bis has comp. swatches up in the SB Swatch thread. Someone had mentioned here yesterday that she thought they were the same thing, so I went and swatched them myself, but didn't have time to photo. I will agree that they are dups for each other. Bough Grey is more greeny and sheer than Swell Baby which is more pigmented and not as opaque.
And Oomph! Looks good with either Swell Baby or Bough Grey.
I haven't had time to post lately. This is my first haul since MC.
Thursday ran like a mad hatter to Bloomies and got Summer Stash and Surf the Ocean. Plus the last one of Surf Baby cheek powder. (They didn't even have a tester out for that!)
After seeing everyone's e/s swatches I went to MAC f/s and got Swell Baby and Short Shorts. Neither of which I needed as I find Tissueweight and Bough Grey are dups, but none the less, they have been added to my collection.
I would say that Surf USA would be the best e/s to pick up from this collection.
Tried on Hibiscus as you all were raving about it, but it looks very orange on me. Not attractive.

Alright ladies the willowbrook mall in Wayne nj has a Macy's and they have all surf baby products in stock except hibiscus. They even have my paradise and the pigments. The mac store in the same mall has everything including mp and hibiscus. I backed up hibiscus and kk.

I got Surf the Ocean pigment stack, murflegirl's look was so pretty she sold me on this one.
I tried Sun Blonde over Knight Divine, and the result was an interesting olive green, I kinda liked it.
Thank you for the sweet compliment! I hope it turned out just like you wanted! I'm having such fun with this pigment stack. I love this collection so hard.

After a super long work shift last night, my eye look with STO didn't budge at all. I only used Too Faced SI and NYX's Milk jumbo pencil underneath. I have to say I adore the green duochrome that the dark blue has. I'll need to use the silver pigment soon to see how it holds up.
