Now that I've seen swatches of both of the lip sets--if I had the money, I'd get them both just for the lippies. Mmm they look so good, especially Baron's Rose. Why can't I be RICH?

My eyeliner disappears from the outer lower corners too when I use the PG's but now I figured out why I have the jagged line.....wasnt sharpened enough. I used Undercurrant yesterday with Golder's Green on my lid and Teal pigment in the crease and UC looked great with this combo. I was trying to thinly line the lower lashline to see if it would still do that uneven line and I noticed it did when I not knowingly turned the pencil a little.....ie where it was wider. I may just get another one of these as a backup and will be my only purchase till a few other things go to the CCO.

i think i'll only get glamora castle, black swan and moonlight night.
although i don't know why i keep buying pigments since i never use them...
as always i'll skip the sets because there's always something in 'em i dont't want (although i really like mellow mood!)
not sure about faerie glen. any fans?

I've been having a hard time making a list because I'm not sure how much I should spend. The first three things are my must haves and then the second list is the other things I'd like to have in order of importance
. I can't get it all though. I might just have to forget about my like-to-haves.

^ I'd like to know just how close they are too. Cut a Caper is the kind of shade I usually love but I have EH AND Jazzed and I don't think I need it... THANKFULLY!

Guys, I just read a review from the site that shall not be mentioned and I could not disagree more! I was eager to wear the six beauties palette but with my outfit, I decided to wear twists of tartan. I adore it. Pigmentation is awesome and the colors do work well together. I am wearing every color except set to dance(navy blue). That Is impressive since I usually use no more than 3 shadows because I am impatient. I'm sure you more experienced ladies can work in all the colors.
I can't say her review is wrong. Maybe she just got a bad palette or maybe she was expecting more, but this reminds me that in the end you really have to try things yourself. I might've skipped the palettes had I read her review first. It's sad that some people on the site said they will pass on all the palettes. My experience with this palette makes me want to buy the other ones!

Since I wanted to make sure, I did the livechat, and asked them about Viva Glam Gaga and Cyndi. The MA said they will be available throughout the rest of 2010. So, whoever wants Gaga and Cyndi, don't wait too long.That'd be great! The Viva Glam one?

Thank you Shontay! That's so helpful. I have mixed feelings about this one, I really don't like vainglorious, not my kind of color, and I have swimming that looks so close to the green in this palette, but it just looks so colorful and nice and I'm really in the mood for antique golds and dirty grays...
Some part of me is still hoping that she was wrong about the brushes as well, because I'm such a sucker for brush sets and I desperately want one of these although I already have most of the brushes

I believe she may be wrong on the brush sets as well! The sets that I saw/felt were thick full & soft. I always buy the short handle sets & only the red handle ones sucked. I have one of the regular 187 & its not near as full & lush as some that I have received in these kits.

Thank you guys!I ask myself this question every day.
And thank you Shontay and Elegant - for dispersing my sudden doubts about the items she reviewed!

This year's brush sets are definitely better quality than some years past. The hairs are softer overall, and although not every brush is equal (the 187's white hairs are not as long and precision spaced like the full size), some bushes are really nice - I got the face set since the 168 was full but a little smaller than the regular one, which is what I prefer. (Never got the full size 168 because it was just too big for my cheeks). The bags are really cute too, so that's something to consider.
Best advice is to test them out yourself - second best advice is listen to all the feedback here and take the general consensus opinion

I wore Ever Hip to the unveiling to double check this - it's quite close. It's sheerer than Ever Hip and maybe a touch more coral. If you have Ever Hip, this isn't different enough to be worth it, unless you were looking for a backup color.
