Sarah: ELECTRIC COOL EYE SHADOW (again ?)
Sarah: Above are the following Collections coming out in September
Me: What are Project RF and Middle Eastern lipsticks? And Go Sees?
Sarah: Go Sees are MASCARA KIT, PREP + PRIME KIT, FOUNDATION KIT
Sarah: Project RF is relaunching products that have been discontined I think
Sarah: Im not sure what Middle Eastern Lipsticks are as I do not have any information on that collection I am afraid
Me: Ok. Do you know if and when By Request and Ruffian are coming out?
Sarah: By Request will be out online only on the 4th October
Sarah: and we will not be getting the Ruffian Collection in the UK only in the US
Project RF was ruffian wasn't it?

Thank you all for the suggestions! I hope you are all correct. I also hope that most of this stuff will be available permanently/for a longer time since my wallet is finally going to collapse tomorrow when I get my SS stuff + some other items. It is NOT going to strech for all things mentioned coming out in September!

I saw two different write ups in magazines (American) about Ruffian and they both showed blue on blue nails. Anyone know anything about these?

These are from the fashion show, but they were not related to the Ruffian collection.

Wow! What a long list of collections. I'm very curious about the Middle Eastern lipsticks even though I'm in the US and not UK. I really miss our "sources" that would give us more updated information and color stories ahead of time. Please come back home to us. Please....

The lipstick extensions are some of the lipsticks from the Mickey Contractor collection.

I know that my local store got all the Ruffian nail sets in, totally by surprise. They weren't even given a display for them - they had to just stack a few up by the registers. Could this be what they're referring to?

On a side note, I wound up getting the black & gold set and the pointy red set. I would have never bought them online without seeing them first, but in person, they were really nice, high quality, and amazingly, nice and small to suit my small nail beds, which most press on nails totally fail on for me.

I've seen the nails in my local f/s standing store too. It was weird and they had them up at the register and even the girl behind the counter was surprised they had received them. Must be overstock maybe?

Gotta admit, those nails are a hard sell, especially if you can't even see them in person:

1) Press-ons??!!
2) Freaky looking
3) If you don't mind #1 and 2, are they even sized right for you
4) If you don't mind #1, 2 and 3, are they decent quality, how's the sticky backing, etc.


Doing it first online only was only good for selling mass quantities of lipstick, if you ask me.

I actually hope that my local store gets the nails in - I was interested in them, but I never ordered them since I had no idea if the size would work for me.

In the UK we've never had Ruffian, so I wouldn't think that's what they were referring to, esp as Project RF (whatever it is) is online only. But I hope they do mean the Ruffian collection, I don't care about the nails, but wanted to get Ruffian Red l/s.
