That's a weird release date. Wonder when we're getting it in the UK. I thought it was January for us.

Did you get Naturally in November last year or was it in January?
I'm curious to see if this collection will launch earlier in Europe too...

Do you know what, I've just checked my blog and it was actually February!

Maybe you'll get AC in February then again.
Although, if I remember correctly, Naturally was released in mid-Jan, while this year, AC is released at the end of December. The release pattern doesn't seem to be consistent or predictable anymore.

Last year Naturally was released in february in Italy too, but this year Apres Chic will be released in January... I know it's odd because every year in January we used to have two collections (cham pale and stylishly yours, daphne guinness and iris apfel..) ... something is changing to the head quarter? XDMaybe you'll get AC in February then again.

We also had Naturally in February, but no Stylishly Yours or Iris
. I'm fairly certain that my Mac said that we are getting this collection in January.

I'm in desperate need of some swatches from this collection, Strength or even taste temptations....

It is amazing that we are getting it first, I was stunned because it released in January last year for Naturally

I'm actually a bit concerned about that. While on the one hand I'd definitely appreciate less collections per month, I hope that won't turn out in getting less collections outside of Northern America. I'm a bit wary now that it seems that we won't get Taste Temptations. I really can't remember a time when we didn't get such a big collection over here. Well, we'll see...

I wouldn't be too concerned. In the past, there were also collections that were Europe exclusive, such as the Cine-matics refills (I believe those were also not available in England).

Its a great blush, too bad it doesn't last on me, my skin eats it. It is a really pretty, cool toned cotton candy pink.
Not sure if it'd work for you, but I found that using a stippling brush (my favorite of the moment is by Real Techniques) to apply my blush. I notice my blush has more staying power this way.

I'm with you on this. I have 4 of the products you listed, plus Benefit Cha Cha Tint, Nars Orgasm blush, Laura Geller Peach Blossom and a few other coral type blushes, so I'm trying to skip Stereo Rose.Well, i'm not yet on the bandwagonabout Stereo Rose - "Coral with golden-bronze shimmering nuances" because I have:
-- MSF - Semi Precious Rose Quartz - “rosy pink base with inner circle of silver, lime, white-pink, and copper” - looks coral on me
-- MSF - Redhead - "Gold to salmon pink degradé with frosty finish" - looks coral on me
-- MSF - Light Year - "Peachy pink with gold shimmer"
-- Mineralize Blush - Solar Ray - "Peach and gold melange"
as well as
-- Pearlmatte Face Powder - Flower Fantasy - "Pale coral with gold pearl/pale pink/soft pale salmon" (different finish, similar color range)
And
-- Benefit CORALista - "bright coral with shimmer"
-- NARS Deep Throat - "peach with shimmer"
-- NARS Orgasm the Multiple - "pinky peach with gold shimmer" (a cream stick)
Is Stereo Rose really so different that i should consider it?
edit: Just remembered I also have the Casual Colors and two of them are coral/peachy. Hopefully Stereo Rose will be a skip for me...but swatches always have a way of swaying one's opinion lol.
