^^ Oh, that is too bad about the JC not lasting on you! They last all day on me -- I use foundation, powder, blush, and finish with a light dusting of finishing powder. But if they didn't last on me, I would be bummed out, too.

MrsB, I'm so glad you found the quint! YAY!!

QueenOfSnark, that's too bad about the JCs - they're so pretty. But at least Tarte works for you. I haven't tried the new Tarte blushes yet, but have been a bit interested......

Anneri, I'm sorry your trip had to be postponed, but waiting for SF will be very worth it, I promise you! A beautiful area, and it's fun to watch out the plane window getting there!

Michelle - its funny about the Chanel free ship codes - usually they will send a card in your order with a free shipping code for your next order & they did not do that this time. I looked all over for it...nope :( bummer

I bought a ton of stuff from the Fall collection. It is gorgeous. I've only has a chance to use Peridot nail polish and Emerveille shadow. Love them both.

Peridot - if you have any interest at all in this, get it asap because I think it will sell out fast. It is a very unique color. Depending on how the light hits your nails, it can look like brushed gold, greenish-gold, pinkish-gold. I had no interest until I saw it in person. It's definitely a fall color but I couldn't wait to try it out.

Emerveille - very please with this. I used this with UD Prime Potion. I applied at 6:30 am, it's nearly 6:30 pm and I still have a decent amount left on. It's a nice peachy color. It's shimmery but not over the top. I wore it on my lid with a matte brown shadow in the crease. The texture is also amazing.

I can't wait to try out the rest of the collection! My credit card took a major hit but it's the only fall makeup I'm buying.

Ohh...free shipping over $100...but my Byzance order comes just under $100, so that gives me an excuse to throw in another lippy, right? >_> Even though I just bought Mandarin and Imperial (FOUND ONE!) at my local Nordies...

^^ Thanks for sharing. This is posted in our foundation thread so you can go check it out. It is replacing Pro Lumiere.

elegant - is Plumetis like Hue? I recently b2m for it and I like the colour but my lips dislike the formula. It looks patchy on me.

MaryJane - thanks for your review. I need to try on Peridot before buying. I'm unconvinced at the moment that it will look good on my skintone. Now I want Emerville, it looks beautiful in the swatches, but I worry it will make my eyes look sick.

Karla raves about the eyeliner. I wonder if I need it, maybe I can use it as a base since it smudges.

Yeah not testers is a bummer.

Well I wonder what are they going to do with the actual items they have on display from this collection arranged open behind a glass so you can look at them but can't touch them.

Are they going to sell a display, items which have been opened, touched, probably fastened of some sort on the display stand and stayed under the lights????
I sure would not want to pay $64 for a quad like that.

BTW Temptalia just reviewed the Prelude quad and gave it an stellar amount of points!

I read that. Her swatches make the shades look a lot more interesting than I initially thought. They always looked beautiful, but more like standard colours I already have. Seen up close, they're quite breathtaking. I just have to remember that no one is going to be seeing them that close...

Now I want both Prelude and Topkapi...
