Its out of control

The Dazzleglasses didn't help being thrown into the mix of collections for me. I'm gonna try to be selective. At least Nordies is a little ways away

bronze is my favorite brown

bronze has more red to it. burning ambition is more of a true brown. why do i never wear ba? i know, cause i have a shit-ton of other colors!!!

Erine can you please do a swatch of Tempting and Mulch for me. I need to figure out which one I need. Thanks!

I just posted several pics of the Solar Bits - Black Ore in the swatch thread

My excitement was soon diminished by the immediate fallout not only all over my counter, but all over my face & beneath my eye after application. I guess you could consider it Dazzleglass for the eyes, but it was a bit too much sparkle fallout. Not chunky, heavy sparkle, but not really subtle shimmer either. Not sure if the other lighter colors will be as sparkley.

I did however, like the color which is very close to Blackground with lots of gold. It looked stunning over Blackground & Indianwood PP. It did thin with a little water on a thin liner brush & could be applied over an eyeliner, but probably would not be smooth enough on its own.

The product in the container is quite lumpy & is waaay too messy for my tastes - & I'm not a messy person. Every time I take the lid off, it falls all over the place - quite frustrating. Unless I am educated with another better form of application, I think I will not get another as it will be easier to use regular shadows. But, I may change my mind as others get them and talk about use.

I want that pink grapefruit l/g and the volcanic ash exfoliator sounds interesting. I might get that too!

Well, I am not sure whether to be relieved (for my wallet) or disappointed. I saw the swatches (THANK YOU SO MUCH!) and while I think it is lovely, I really don't want to have to deal with a messy fallout everytime I use a product. Really, the only one I want is the black one, and black fallout is worse than any other! I will still check them out, of course, but I doubt I will get any of them. I REALLY hope that people will sample them out like they do pigments. I would definately buy them that way. Please report back if you use them again, and let us know how it goes. It really is beautiful with all of the gold shimmer, but I wonder if it is worth the hassle? Thanks again for sharing!
