The bristles of the 227 seem to be much longer than the 235, but it might work well for emollient products such as concealers. I need to compare them side by side though...

PS: Her Rose Quartz is the prettiest of all the RQ I have seen to far. It's a really beauty in the pan.

Thanks for your swatches. What's your favorite MSF (and why)?

Thanks for your vid. The colours look gorgeous! You got to buy so many, very lucky girl indeed:)
It made me kinda reconsider not buying any msfs but they're too small and too glittery for me:)

Allura's video overview with swatches is also up.

already watched it :)

and I haven't slept a minute, and have a bad headache now. Sorry for off topic)[/h]

Most of the MES look kind of disappointing seeing them being applied, the more swatches I see, the more I think about skipping them completely. I'm still so undecided with the MES and MSFs.

Sorry about the music. I agree with your on the MES, they look much better in the pan than swatched. Have you decided which MSF you will get?

Ok I have cut my list so small so here is what I'll be getting:

Rose Quartz MSF
Gem of Roses l/s
Geo Pink c/g

I'll get Lush Amber l/s, Pressed Amber MB and Natural Flare c/g next week online. I'm unsure if I want Dark Indulgence MES now.

I can't decide on Gem of Roses.... To anyone that has bought it already, how sheer is it truly? In swatches, it seems pretty sheer to me, but I'm not sure =\

maybe i am in the minority but i think most of the mes swatch just as nicely as they look in the pan and i'm still excited to get a few of them :)

Probably Rose Quartz. But I'm not too excited that this one is supposed to be gritty, and also that the MSFs have much less product in them for the same price than usually.

RQ is definitely the prettiest in the pan, but I worry too about excessive glitter and gritty texture, especially with RQ.

RQ ended up being at the top of my maybe getting list but its a small amount compared to other older ones and the gritty texture worries me. So im skipping all the msfs this time. Maybe the holiday collex will have a better msf sellection, who knows:)
