I purchased Two Virtues, I swatched it next to Dollymix and I likeTwo Virtues much better

Okay so maybe I wont get Chic Couple. Yay.

I only picked up Two Virtues and I LOVE IT!! Just use a light hand and blend blend blend for perfect pinky/lavender cheeks! I also want to get Chic Couple or Sun&Moon but I'm in no rush to buy them. I'm hoping that Ripe Peach comes back in stock!

Bi-Tone is so gorgeous! I am glad I picked it up! Cremesheen glasses are my fav but I can get them later since they are perm. The liners are fabulous but only got two - In Synch and Trimmed Pink. I find the more wearable.

Good idea. I havent been to my CCO in a long time.

I tried on Chic Couple at the MAC counter and wasnt impressed. Then something told me to try it wet. I asked the MA for Fix+ and tried it on again. GORGEOUS! It made such a difference.

Its going on my list

I like these new blushes because they are pretty if you use a light touch (ie 187/188) and have shimmer but aren't glitterbombs. I love the texture!

I just came back to tell y'all about the fabulousness that is Richer, Lusher!!!!! SMH. I did Ever Hip from Liberty of London with Spice lip liner and RL on top... it will blow your mind!!!!

Is Boy Bait a must have? It looks so sheer on the back of my hand. I have pigmented lips and I am not into lip liner.

Probably not a MUST have but I like it a lot. I have one from the 1st release after it was really really popular.
Its a nice color to wear over nude lipstick if you like the milky nude look. If not, you can definitly pass

i got 2 mineralize blushes chic couple and two virtues .
i didn't get any of the cremesheen glasses , i find them way too sheer and so light and kinda liquidy , they remind of Ingot sleeks cream glasses which I hate .

I'd venture to say that before this collection came out, I had a WOC come in every week or 2 looking for it. Swatch it...you may like it!

I'm an NC40 and I got
Buddy Up and Sun & Moon both gorgeous on my skintone

I think I'll go back for Rhapsody in Two as I'm hearing it's a good highlighter for us WOC and I don't have a peach toned highlight. I wanted Two Virtues, but in person it seemed a little 80's but I might go back again.

The Cremesheen Glasses are now permanent so I didnt need to rush to get them but in the future there's a few I want to pick up including Richer, Lusher and Just Delight.

 

[QUEENSFLYEST718]

I grabbed richer, lusher. Its gorgeous! I also picked up naked liner. Have any WOC figured out how to wear this liner?

 

[jazmatazz]

I picked up boy bait, I'm really liking the texture and feel of the cremesheen glasses...just fabulous! Lighter feel than the lipglasses, perfect for daytime. I will be picking up a more pigmented one next, perhaps Richer luster.

 

[Blushbaby]

I bought Two Virtues and Chic Couple blushes and Mouth Off liner. I already have Boy Bait and quite like it. I'll check out the other shades later.

 

[thiscarmen]

I'm NC35ish, and I only picked up Rhapsody in Two. It works great as a peachy-pink highlight, and it's not a total glitterbomb. I love it!

I agree. I've been experimenting with using different brushes and so far I like to use the 187. I bought all the blushes except Rhapsody in Two. It reminded me of Handfinish and I wasn't sure I could wear it as blush. I did not try the lip products.

Ahh this collection came out this Saturday, and Boy Bait and three of the blushes were sold out already! I picked up the remaining three - Buddy Up, Two Virtues (surprised this one wasn't sold) and Chic Couple.

Buddy Up is a very pigmented rose colour, not sure how I'm gonna pull that one off.. and Two Virtues is exactly what I thought Azalea Blossom b/o would be (was sold out when I went to get it as welll). Chic Couple is pretty easy to wear - its like a more bronzed/darker Springsheen. I love Mineralize Blushes!!!

I also picked up Richer, Lusher and Double Dare.. Richer Lusher is awesome (I'm wearing it today with Chic Couple) and Double Dare is this opaque brown-red. I was surprised at how opaque it actually was!!

 

[Curly1908]

I actually picked up Over Indulgence much to my surprise! Love it -- reminds me a lot of 3N. I'll eventually get some more creamsheen l/g.
