Sorry I can't recall if this was posted? I am loving the eyeshadow swatches here, as well as Mehr and Sur *drool*

I am currently using Accentuate / Sculpt duo for contouring (which I love
) but is almost completely gone. I wonder if Gana and Sur would be a suitable replacement. The only problem is, I hate to get my hopes up that this would work for me only to find out that this collection sold out online in 5 minutes! Also, does anyone know how Sur compares to Darkly my Dear from VV?

I'm curious to see how close Saffron is to Texture or Snappy (long ago LE). Does anyone know or can compare?
On my definite list are:
-Mehr l/s
-Siahi f/l (I have been loving Dark Blue/Navy/Sapphire eyeliner lately)
-Sur blush (because I am still kicking myself for not backing up Prim and Proper)
Skipping Gana in favor of a second Play it Proper. (Which I am LOVING!)
Skipping Oomph in favor of Ego from Peacocky (although I know Oomp has a darker base and Ego is more true green, but I figure they are close enough)
I may get the quad. I'm trying to talk myself out of it, but It seems like one of those very versatile palettes where you can create a simple look or a more dramatic look not to mention Folie is a staple for me. But...I don't know if I *need* the quad.
And I may get Saffron if looks different enough from Texture or Rule, but I likely will be able to talk myself out of it.
I just wish there were a week or two between this and Peacocky. I'm on a bit of MAC overload these last couple of weeks!
Plus I need to check out the Chanel spring stuff too (I'm late to the party - but I am waiting for it to hit my counter, so I can see the quad, quint and blush in person before deciding if they are worth the splurge - but all 3 of the n/p are definitely coming home with me).

I'm trying to decide if I'm going to purchase the Quad. Surprisingly I'm sure, I do not own Carbon (gasp) or Folie and I'd like to see what the other shades in the Quad are about so.....I think I may be purchasing it.

I can't completely tell from the online swatches, but DMD looks to be a bit more plum/brown/rose and Sur looks a tad more rosy brown...? But I haven't seen Sur in person to confirm.
Also, Gana is going to be a shimmery highlight, where Accentuate is not (I love the Accentuate/Sculpt powders - they are worth the call to the pro number to reorder in my opinion. You can't get the duo any more, but they sell the pans individually).
But if you're looking for something you can buy at the counter or online, I honestly can't say enough good things about Play it Proper b/p from Stylishly Yours....I'm an NW 20 and it is all gorgeous glowy goodness.

I really like Folie too. I'm going to go for Saffron as I think it will be different enough.
And, yes - save some $$$ for that gorgeous Chanel!!!

I think Mehr would be gorgeous with your skin tone.

Thanks for the info! I am NC20 so Mehr might work on me. I had ANOTHER dream about it, so I think I need it.

I haven't been to this thread in ages, but now that it's so close to release, I can't help myself I'm only getting three items because I'm super broke, but I'm very excited for each of them:
Gulabi
Mehr
Siaha
I actually have a sari that is in gradations of cream and hot pink that will look GORGEOUS with Gulabi, Mehr looks like my HG rosy nude which I have been searching for my whole life, and Siahi makes me drool just thinking about it!!
Can I also say that I'm so glad these products aren't ginormous?!?! My wallet is breathing sighs of relief that it doesn't have to fork out more cash... Peacocky is hurting me badly enough!

Thanks HG
Good to be back! And I know I'm lucky - I won't touch that stuff because I know I'll get hooked and go without food to have them!
One day... when I'm finished school and employed by a school with a full-time salary!

Thank you, Bis.
Am I only one that thinks that Mac should give Wet n Wild some money because the new lustres in Astma looks exactly like the eyeshadows in the Wet n Wild holiday brown palette, sparkles and all. Drugstore is catching up to high-end with the quickness, it's freaky scary.
This collection is bringing out my stalking tendencies. I hate that I can't try on the stuff because I would try Mehr but I think it would be too rosy for my skintone, when I think of rosy colors I compare everything to Brave lipstick or Nars Dolce Vita and that is about as far as rosy that I can pull off. That Flesh Poo l/g when swatched makes my head hurt.
