I've just been lurking on this thread. As much as I can't stand that family, as [MENTION=72361]NATlar[/MENTION] said, it is all about the products in the end.

In regards to RockIt now, if anyone has Pillow Talk... Can you do a comparison swatch for me, as I'm trying my hardest not to go overboard with PT. Thank you.

I don't care for Caitlyn Jenner and I think most don't either that's why pretty much everything is still in stock. I don't have anything negative about Caitlyn haven't taken notice but I do think some comments I've seen floating about on Twitter and Instagram about MAC collaborating with Caitlyn Jenner is disgusting but that's my opinion!

Im more about the products really interested in the powder and blush duo and Rockit lipstick but after Christmas I'm pretty much skint haha but we'll see!

I can't stand the Ks and Js but I agree it's all about the products.. I'm also disgusted by some of the comments I've seen on Instagram, I know many people don't like Caitlyn/them but they went too far.

And I'm surprised none of the big beauty blogs have reviewed this collection yet? Not even swatches in T's gallery. I don't like this at all and I have a feeling this will happen more often in the future. I really don't know what to get without the swatches and reviews :/ Same for this collection.. still debating whether to get the msf or not.. I only got Rockit for now. Btw Rockit and the blush duo sold out really fast in Holland, the rest is still in stock.

I'm rarely on Instagram these days, so I haven't seen the comments. If the comments are anything like the photo of those beautiful lips wearing Matte Royal, I really don't want to know.

I hear you on that. I was surprised how many people love Kylie's lips and how harsh they were on that model. (who am I kidding, I wasn't that surprised) Part of me hopes it is b/c it really is an unflattering pic and people are tired of this family. BUUUUUT....

I just couldn't understand the double standards from the majority of those people. Kylie's lips are plastic. The model's are the real deal. After that photo was posted, I hit the 'follow' button on the model's profile (I can't spell her name). She smashed Matte Royal out of the f***ing Milky Way. Those comments were just disgusting and uncalled for.

Allure's Facebook page has a video swatch session with three different skin tones. It's not super easy to see the colors (clean your lens, Allure) but since there's so little info out there some might find it helpful. Allure | Facebook Scroll down, I think this was posted yesterday.

The comments are disgusting,the majority are from women,full of ageism,intolerance and hate.I have to say i'm confused, a few months back people use to preach for tolerance but because of her political beliefs now they feel it's allowed to be a bully.
Very disappointing,i thought the goal was to be better than that.I have to say i expected that from Temptalia though.There is a small chance that my parcel arrives tomorrow, i'll post swatches as soon as i can:)

I have Rockit, Blush Duo and the MSF in my basket maybe i'll not check out but I'm tempted! I do need a new Soar lip pencil as I leaned on mine without realizing and broke it in half so I'm using what I have left haha but I think i'll pick it up in the original packaging at some point as it's not needed to buy this minute as I have some left so it'll do for now but I do love the packaging of it in this collection...

The hate for Caitlyn is not because she's trans, it's because she appears to be a bad human. Isn't that the whole goal? To be treated according to your merits as a human and not your sexuality?

I do get if it's about her being a bad human which I haven't taken notice of but most of the comments I've seen on social medium have been about her being a transgender which is disgusting...

Agreed. I also think she faces more scrutiny on whether or not she's a bad human b/c she's trans.

I don't have time or patience to go over all the pages in this thread. LOL. So this link has probably already been posted,but omg the Rockit lipstick looks very similar to Julia Petit's coveted Boca (matte) but in cremesheen form. I just bought it to compare, looking forward to it coming in next week.

What's to understand? It's racism pure and simple. Natural full lips on a black woman are a problem, but if a white girl purchases some, it's beautiful. Wash, rinse, repeat.

As for this collection, I try as much as possible not to support anything or anyone that is antithetical to me and my life, especially with my hard earned coins. People mocking Caitlin for being trans are transphobic to start with and are just using the fact she's a trash individual from a trash family as an excuse. They are garbage themselves.

Just speaking for myself, sometimes it goes beyond the product. I'm not going to buy stuff just because, especially when I have options. Whatever people want to do with their own money is up to them.

I just do NOT understand HATE...period. If people spent more of their time giving, forgiving & extending genuine love to everyone around them, this world would be a much better place. That's how I've always lived my life...even to those who didn't accept me for who I am. Doesn't matter...love covers a multitude of everyone's issues.

Still skipping.

1. Because I overspent on makeup recently when I should be saving my money towards my move later this year.

2. Because of her. And not because she is transgender. I don't care about that and think to each his/her own, if that is who she was, fine. What I'm not ok with is the family, and the way they handle themselves. All the publicity, the media stunts, the reality shows, all to keep the cash coming in since they have no talent. Ok, so Bruce was an Olimpian, but Caitlyn is not. It is a good thing that she wanted to bring awareness to transgendered people, but her way of doing it was all wrong. Then, the car accident. She kills someone and gets away with murder? Ok, manslaughter, but still.

so skip because no money, and yeah, because of her.
