me too! gorgeous

I see tons of LJ on eBay already. One person is selling them for 80.00, and it says 14 have sold already. I wonder if those 14 people paid 80.00 for them?? That's crazy! I bought one recently for 30.00, it was an old one that was a sentimental favorite of mine. And if there was one that had a very high collector's value I might pay more, but I honestly don't think LJ or the packaging is that unique that it's worth 80.00.

When you click on 14 Sold, it tells you the price sold for...they are getting pretty greedy with the last 2 available at $80.

Temptalia has some sneak peak swatches up... And now I want ALL three lippies! Though, Acai is starting to look more and more like something I already have.

T's is the first swatch to make me reconsider getting Boca. It's not as special as I thought.

I am thinking the same. It looks like a regular nude.
Sometimes I find her lighting doesn't do justice for certain colors. Her lighting is making boca look like a lighter version of oxblood from the Toledo collection. The video that was posted earlier along with some swatch photos were completely different

for me. Boca's far less mauve than I hoped for, I don't need that red and I'm pretty sure I have at least half a dozen dupes for Acai in my stash, though I wouldn't mind seeing some comparison swatches just to be sure.

True. I will probably make a decision on it closer to the time. So far my list is:

  • Acai x 2 (one for my sister)
  • Petite Red
  • Boca (?)
  • Linda Blush

I like the pink rebel drops as well but realistically I don't see myself wearing it often enough to justify purchasing it.

Sounds good! Yea that's why I didn't put the luster drops on my list either... I wear mostly nude shades, so I have to BU Boca! PR is beautiful, but i wouldn't wear it much. Açai is really pretty! You are a sweetheart for thinking of your sister :heart:

I've been looking for a pink nude so Ts swatches are making me like Boca more. The shots of Boca in Julia's video looked a little... Barbie? For me. Like too blue toned..but not enough gray.. Not sure how to describe

Aww thanks...My sister is into those vibrant matte colours.

I don't think nudes look that great on me so that is why I am on the fence with Boca. If it is pinky or mauvey enough, I think can pull it off. Then again, if I buy it but don't like it, I can always pass it along.

The right lip liner can change a horrible nude into something magical! Soar, whirl, cork, edge to edge and dervish, are great liners to pair with nude lippies :) Whatever you buy, i hope you enjoy :heart:

Well T's swatches confirm I want all the lipsticks but her swatch of Linda is seriously putting me off. In every other swatch it looked pinky bronze but in hers I see no hint of pink whatsoever. It looks like it would turn to mud on my face in her swatch.

I have been meaning to pick up a few lip pencils. I have both dervish and edge to edge on my wishlist. Will give it a try. Thanks much

Hope you enjoy your goodies too.

T posted her review of the BBW beauty powder but I noticed that she's wearing some of the shadows from this collection as well as the lip gloss.

Wow... T's swatches make me want to skip this completely. Even Boca! Her swatch of Boca kinda looks like Oxblood and I'm not 100% in love with my Oxblood. I guess it would be good to skip though, cause I am going crazy with MAC Is Beauty!
