All of the responses about the neighbor are too funny!

Thanks for letting me ramble on about nonsense, I love you guys!

x 100 OMG - I was reading this in bed this morning, laughing out loud, tears rolling, laughing some more all morning! WTH? Maybe he plays for the other team & doesn't want you to get any ideas

Maybe he just has FF- Fart Fetish

Seriously, I can't even type this without tears & laughing its SO freakin strange ----->

this is his smiley - just a puff of air!
OMG on the sexting - I could ask them to take me to Home Depot

( that was so sweet of you)

So what did you get from this collection?

I'm laughing so hard at the gas puff smiley, OMG! Perfect!

So far I picked up the JC, Black Pearl NP and Nakkar glossimer and those will be here on Tuesday! I'm sure I'll be getting more but I need to see the lippies and powder in person or see more swatches before deciding. As of now, 3 of the lipsticks (all but Peregrina) and the Rose Merveille powder are still on my list to grab. Plus, I want to get at least one more RAEDG...I love those so much!

I can't wait to hear what you think of Jersey Rose/Shore! You're getting that on Monday or pretty soon, right?

PS: For the record I would totally take you to Home Depot!

Has anyone been able to check out the Rose Merveille powder in person yet? I'm really interested in this product! Is this something I would use as a setting powder? A cheek highlight? Maybe a subtle blush? I'm in love with the pictures of it, but I don't know what to use it for, lol!

I'm curious about the Rose Merveille powder too. I automoatically wrote it off because it looks like a setting powder with sparkles. I assumed it would be like the Poudre Douce which was full of too big glitter particles to use on my face. The tiny ones in meteorites are the most I can handle all over my face.

^^ I have Almond Poudre Douce and it is too shimmery for an all over powder. I'm pleased to know the meteorites glitter are smaller, even the Holiday 2010 one? I'm interested in getting Rose Merveille.

I have one of those kind of powders - they are so pretty in the case, but I rarely ever use it & I have no idea why. They're more of a highlight powder & yes they are a little shimmery.

Yes! My JSR comes today. I hope ups is early so I can post some good light pics for you guys.

so you like Gas Puffy the smiley

But we don't want Michelle to die from laughing

On the new pearl quad - I used the beige color thats in the bottom left to do a very thin smudgey highlight line just under my lower lash liner. It really is pretty & highlights the liner & lights up the eyes. I've been doing this for a long time with Mally's highlighter wand. If you do it right it really really brings this subtle brightness to your face & eyes.

Yes even in the holiday ones they are very, very fine. My Rosee Poudre Douce was quite large glitter (in my opinion). I was surprised :-(

Thanks so much! I can't wait to try this

Anyone here who already has gotten Black Pearl?

 

[elegant-one]

Karen should be getting her's today, but because of work probably won't get to post pics until later.

I passed on it.

Rose Dentelle - left
Jersey Rose - Right


Rose Dentelle - bottom left
Jersey Rose - top right


Chanel Jersey Rose

Its very close in color to Rose Dentelle, however RD is more pink.
Jersey Rose is a beautiful more rose very slight coral pink. Its very pretty on. Perfect match for the blush!

 

[mrslid]

Elegant you take the most beautiful pictures!! Would you say Jersey Rose has the same overly creamy texture that Rose Dentelle and Magnolia have that most other RCs don't?? That looks like a must have for me. I got Chintz but not Rose Dentelle in the fall. As long as it's not too similar to Mademoiselle then I think I "need" it LOL

Yes, it seems to be the same consistency as RD. No, its not like Mademoiselle

Its a rose pink but def. has a very very slight coral undertone.

Thanks

I really want to see a swatch of Flamboyant ls!!!

 

[mrslid]

Oh hmm. I'm just assuming Rose Dentelle was the same consistency as Chintz and I'm really not happy with the formula of Chintz. It might be better in a deeper colour like JR though on me. Thank you for the info!!! I'm also dying to see more swatches of Flamboyante!!! What I've seen looks gorgeous so I'm very interested in it. I'm sure we'll be flooded with pics on the intenet soon. I really hope KarlaSugar does swatches because I always find hers so helpful.

 

[elegant-one]

I could only find that one pic of Flamboyant. Yes, for sure Karla's would be great. My Macys just called to tell me that they have the Pearl collection now

 

[Bonitinha]

Thanks for the swatches Elegant! The lippie looks so pretty

I didn't get Rose Dentelle -- so I'm excited to get Jersey Rose. I need a few more peachy pieces in my collection. Well, "need" is a relative term . . .

 

[mrslid]

OOhhh maybe I'll be hearing from my Macy's SA soon then!

Is it weird that I know I don't like metallic finish nail polishes but I keep thinking I need Black Pearl because everyone loves it so much?
