Yikes, some things went fast. I'm glad I wasn't really interested in what's sold out already, but I hope you ladies that missed out can get your stuff later. I ended up making two orders because I'm weird. The site is moving so SLOW. My first order is Apres Chic, Haute Altitude, and the Fluidline gel browcreme in brunette. My Anastasia pencil is awesome, but I'm looking for a little something to mix it with just because. My second order is Firm Form (why not? I think it might look good with Magenta lip liner) and Absolute Power. I've been unsuccessful finding a Christmas present for myself, so I decided to get things from these collections even though I wasn't eagerly awaiting it, though.

UGH I'm getting frustrated! I wanna place my second order but those damn blushes are saying sold out. I might just check to see if there is a pro store here in Austin and pick them up in person tomorrow.

 

[ladyarwen]

Both blushes are showing as sold out.

 

[elegant-one]

Richelle83 - You are being awfully quiet! Did you get anything?

 

[xsparrow]

OMGGG! Just submitted my order =D
1 Stereo Rose
2 Party Parrot
1 Apres Chic

Weird that so many things are sold out! Hope everyone gets everything you want

 

[LadyMisfit]

Orders 2 SW and 1 Party Parrot and now I can rest happliy. I will check out PiPi in stores on release day to see if I need it since I already use CYY and Dear Diary a whole lot. Happy Hauling ladies.

 

[sparklyy]

any chance someone can CP Strong Woman and Absolute Power for me? please?

Holy heck!!!

 

[elegant-one]

So...what happens with this....both blushes show sold out, but they could be ordered if you went to the actual product. ???

 

[valkolak]

A spoolie is nit only gonna waste the product, it's gonna only apply it to your hair, and this products needs to stick to the skin. I spoolie won't allow that.

Ah, I see. I guess I was expecting it to be like a brow gel on steroids. Thanks!

 

[duckrodeo]

WHEW! What an hour whirlwind for this collection lol

I placed orders and got confirmation for all that I was interested in, and even fought with the site to get confirmation for Pink Pigeon.

Final list:
Stereo Rose
Haute Altitude
Hot Chocolate
Apres Chic
Pink Pigeon
Absolute Power
Party Parrot
All Woman Quad

aaand now I'm broke! lol

I know exactly what you mean, there are 2 that I thought were really sweet but their Twitter completely changed my mind.

please I can name 6

I just got home from shopping and I can't believe I missed the launch after being home most of the day. I grabbed Strong Woman but I'm just going to go to my store when it opens Wednesday since I wanted Taupe Shape and Pink Pigeon. I live 5 minutes away and it gives me something to look forward to anyways. I hope the rest of you had better luck!

I was able to order a taupe shape at 8:35 cst. It never gave me trouble.

For once, I managed to get everything I wanted lol: Apres Chic, Hot Chocolate, Haute Attitude, Absolute Power, Party Parrot and decided to get Firm Form at the last minute. It seemed too unique to pass up but I'm like "Will I ever wear pearly-gold black lipstick?" Maybe New Years eve will be the perfect opportunity.

That would be a great idea

I totally wanted to get a quad but havent seen any swatches!

 

[SmokeSignal16]

The only other things I want from this are the 2 quads but I will wait to see if any swatches pop up or for it to possibly pop up on Nordies/Macys site so I can use my gift cards

 

[Jennifae]

I wanted to skip this collection, but I couldn't resist... I ordered Strong Woman. (Plus Stereo Rose, Haute Altitude, and Hot Chocolate from Apres Chic.)
