I like the fact the swirls are much chunkier looking than the Semi-Precious MES for better color selection; and I bet the texture on this will be even nice, with that less glitter overall and more of the texture of my all-time favorites like Hold That Pose and Daylight. Even still, I don't want to dupe colors I still have plenty of from SP. There are a few I know I don't have straight dupes for, though, and if I get a few that are similar to ones I already have, it'll only be if the texture is dramatically better than what I already have (which is why I got a couple of the ED shadows, which were very similar to MES I already had, and I feel OK about that hehe)
HEAVENLY CREATURE (Eyes) (North America - July 5, 2012/ International - July 2012)
Mineralize Eye Shadow $20(USD)/ $24(CAD) - all frost finish
Aurora - Peach, green, and brown melange - I don't usually do well with pale olive greens like Modern Pewter and Dalliance, so if this one actually works on me, I may get it.
Magnetic Attraction - Orange, pink and gold melange - looks warm and glowing apricot. Don't think I've got a dupe and will probably snag this one for my green eyes.
Neo Nebula - Cream, warm amethyst and warm pink melange - may be dupeable, but will get based on texture and if I can get one with plenty of amethyst.
Universal Appeal - Gold, bronze and violet melange - sounds lovely, may be close to Daylight. With the right swirls, may break down and buy.
Invincible Light - Icy white, lavender and warm gold melange - not sure this will do anything for my coloring. will resist unless it's magical.
Earthly - Beige, peach and cool brown melange - I skipped Havana, since it was the wrong cool brown for me. Probably won't need this either, fingers crossed, especially if it's not nicer than Twilight Falls.
Water - Yellow, lime green and blue melange - Looks like a combo of Jade's Fortune and Unsurpassable, but with bigger swirls to pull from. I don't honestly need it, but it sure is pretty. Will probably resist.
Bright Moon - Grey, silver and icy green melange - one of those colors that usually doesn't look good on me. 'Looks like Hint of Sapphire, which is also a color I usually can't wear, but somehow works on me - so the verdict is out for reason of possible dupe and/or if it works.
Sky - Green gold, turquoise and cobalt melange - for sure getting this one - the cobalt shade is perfect and is going to be a huge color going forward into Fall. Here's hoping it's nice and dense, rather than being too sheer.
I'm going to finally get the duo fiber eye brush, I bet. I'm not interested in the VAE, so all you other ladies can have mine! 'Still going to be an expensive haul for me, whatever way you cut it.
i'm still undecided on if i want to buy the VAE. can you believe after all these years i have never tried it?! but i tend to just use my clarisonic for exfoliating now - no need for an actual scrub of any sorts
