Stubborn is very well pigmented, I like to use the brush #187 or #188 to apply it very lightly on my cheeks. And it stays at least 8 hours without fading, probably longer than that but I like to remove my makeup as soon as I get back from work.

I do have oily skin, but when I apply it on my cheeks my skin isn't even oily yet and it doesn't look powdery. And not every shade will look good on everyone, I think T forgot that it's great to have pale shades for light skintones and that doesn't mean that the product is bad. I dunno.. just my 2 cents. Don't get me wrong, I love her.
So glad to hear the pigmentation is good. I put in my order today and I can't wait to get it.

The lipglasses seem to be the better part of the collection.

I just went on MAC Chat because I was curious about the lip products used on the Office Hours Promo photos and I was a little shocked.
These are the products:
Lip conditioner (tube)
Bittersweet PLW lip pencil
In Synch lip pencil
Persistent Peach PLW lip glass

I was shocked because Bittersweet is hella dark for that look and it looks kind of matte for gloss. I don't know...

Ohhh I was guessing In Synch was used in part, due to its yellow-pinkiness. Interesting that it looks very matte! Must be a layer of photoshop on top, too hehe

I did not find that the PLW blushes lasted a longer amount of time - or shorter time, for that matter - than the regular powder blushes. Both wear equally long on me. On the other hand, the mineralize blushes tend to fade quicker.
Thank you! If they wear similarly to normal blushes I'm okay with that. I think Baby Don't Go miiiiiight be the "nude" blush I've been looking for - so many of them turn extra pink on me. I will have to check it out next month when all my fun money isn't already spoken for!

Stubborn's available on the regular site too :) I almost snagged it, but PrettyKitty's swatch looked pretty similar to Band of Roses, except BoR is shinier.

I was really looking forward to a new pink with this collection but with all the bad reviews I'm not sure I want to spend the $25 for one.

Any opinions on Girlie? Is it similar to either of the pinks in this collection.

Thanks for your help.

I might the only one but I am excited for the e/s!

I like to have some shades that are more sheer and matte.I plan on using them to set my metal-x e/s e.g.I think that Linger Softly
will look very nice over Obscura and Cyber.
Also I think that these sheer shades are great for blending out the edges.EI should work with nearly every look and the other
e/s with the matching look (Bloom on for pink/rosy looks....).

By the way it's great for the brows, if you are looking for a true taupe brow powder without any warm undertones.

Thank you PrettyKitty!

Very good to know!
I will definitely try it for my brows because I need a replacement for the Taupe brow pencil as it is d/c.
