Yes I don't know why she's calling them balms because they certainly give the appearance of a sheer lipstick and I agree completely with your sentiments regarding balms being like the Fresh ones.
I'll check them out in person and if I end up really liking 1, I'll get it in the November Sephora sale.

Got my 2 balms this morning & I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE them both in shades & texture. They are not slippery balms but very soft on the lips. I was scared when I saw Succexy thinking it would lean a bad burnt orange, but it's gorgeous on my lips A slight pink medium fleshy coral. Love Supreme is just as beautiful on. It is a medium slight pink rose. VERY very happy with these. I just wish that I bought a couple more.

sorry it took me so long to write back:If it's any consolation, I've bought that complete Metalmorphosis set and ever since regretted it. This post pretty much sums up what I'm thinking. Those metal shades are pretty, but the cream shades are not that different from other golds, silvers or coppers that you can buy from other brands. And the pigments are difficult to use, or even unusable for everyday make-up. All in all, I do use the cream shadows, but I think you're getting more out of a metal-themed Tom Ford, Dior or Chanel quad. There might be some for the upcoming holiday with metallic shades, so I think you haven't lost out.
thank you - actually i feel a lot better reading that

I forgot this - they are pigmented but still light.

Thinking of getting one of PMG's red lipsticks instead of Chanel Extreme. Leaning towards Sedition.

I see they’re up on Sephora but not all of the shades are there. Are some exclusive to PMG’s site?

Yes, I noticed that. It says LE for all of them but not Exclusive for the missing shades on PM site. I just checked. I hate when they do that. I think you would really like the texture of these. Oh, BTW no Chanel ls for me to swatch

I am annoyed by Sephora’s lack of shades. The ones that I was interested in are not offered by Sephora. No swatching before buying and no using a rouge reward to help with the cost.
Yep. Unless they haven't finished putting them up yet it stinks.

I saw that as well. I think you could get a similar look as far as the colors go from any of a number of warm palettes on the market but it would be hard to beat the PMG formula - especially for the glitters and ‘special’ colors.

Nars Singapore and Bayadere quads are very comparable to the colors and glitters in the PMG palette.
In fact, had I bought Singapore and Bayadere first I NEVER would have ordered Bronze Seduction. The quads have that gorgeous glittery bronze and even the beautiful flame red of the PMG palette. Actually, now that I think about it the Singapore quad is a near perfect dupe for 4 of the colors in the PMG palette.
I can't say enough about them-the Nars quads are really fanatastic. I ended up buying a third one-Mahe, as well.
The colors and formula of the new Nars quads are fantastic!!!
