My comments never seem to go through on this site anymore, but I posted earlier the link for reporting blkbarbiewhatever on Instagram. What she's doing violates their terms of conditions and she should be punished for it since she's a repeat offender. I also figured it was the YouTube chick but didn't want to put someone's name out there on the chance it was two different people.
Her youtube name is the same as her instagram username

I can't believe people think it's okay to just steal other's photos!
And her grammar is appalling

And I don't blame you, you spend your time doing so and these simpletons steal your photos. And then they have the nerve to brand it with Their cheesy website as if it were their own property. My apologies to whomever else this happened to with the recent Archie pics.

people steal pics all day long, but the thing that irks me the most is she watermarked the pics and fronted like it's hers. This type of thing is very popular on instagram sadly.

I went to a MAC S/S VIP presentation today and I saw Archie's. All of the testers were in a glass box and they didn't allow people to test them!!! Of course, I wasn't happy at all!!! Anyway, I just took some photos. Girl Next Door looked like less intense version of Saint Germain cuz it's luster finish and I think it had tiny shimmer (almost iridescent sheen) when I took a closer look, but I wasn't sure cuz I couldn't test it! Betty Bright looked similar to somewhat between Nicki l/s and Reel sexy l/s (It's peachy-coral with a hint of white, I think) in the tube and it's totally diffrent from Force of Love or Watch me shimmer. Daddy's little girl reminded me of Outrageously Fun, but I think DLG is more intense cuz it's satin finish. Oh and Veronica's blush had shimmer. I think it's silvery shimmer. and Betty's blush was little darker and oranger than I expected. I only had a chance to test Betty's pearlmatte cuz it's the only sample they allowed people to test. (It was on the presentation stage, not in the glass box.) It had shimmer, but it's not glitter. Find shimmer with golden undertone. The texture was really smooth and silky. It was way better than Vera's pearlmatte!!! It was sheerer than I expected and it's like satiny-sheer finish. It didn't look chalky on my hand at least. And it reminded me of lighter, sheerer and peachy-coral version of Immortal Flower blush! Hmm..I just thought it's similar to NARS Deep Throat blush, but less pink and sheerer.
beautiful pics!!! sorry u had hella drama tho! stupid BZ stealing ur pics I saw them on INstagram. I am getting all 3 lippies for sure. I never got st germain cuz it's too white so girl next door sounds like its the light pink Ive been waiting for. I missed reel sexy and I really like that Lippie so Betty bright is a sure thing. and any bright pink Lippie must be mine I dont care how many I have lol. I was planning on both blushes but now I'm confused about the pearlmate. I had decided on Veronica's and planned on trying the coraly one in baking beauties but now I kinda want Betty's more. if I get that one then I will just get the pink n periwinkle one from BB instead.

according to instagrams terms of use she has to not violate copyright, have permission to post other photos etc. Why not just report her photos? I mean they say they may delete your content and or account if you break the rules. Whoever took the pictures can just contact them via support. You don't have to be a member to hit the support button and tell them

I reported the picture as spam/scam. Did anyone notice she also stole KMQE716's pic of the BS swatches? Smh how low.

Grammar and spelling! I can't even sit and read a book for leisure without finding typos or other such errors. I don't look for them. They just jump out at me! Drives me crazy. Not unlike this collection and how indecisive I am over Boyfriend Stealer and Cream Soda because the color never looks the same in different pictures! (See what I did there?

Dear Aquamarine1543 - thank you so much for the fabulous photos!! They really change around what I was thinking about getting.

Mostly Betty Bright! I'd written it off as being close to Watch Me Simmer, but it looks like a deeper, less pastel Reel Sexy - like Reel Sexy mixed with a touch of Ever Hip. I love it! DLG doesn't look quite as good as I'd thought before, so maybe I can just switch 'em.

I love what you have to say about the Pearlmattes. It sounds like the things I didn't like about them in the past may have been improved. I think the Veronica one would suit me very well.

Thanks again and don't take it to heart about Instagram fools. When you contribute to Specktra, you're contributing to a great community full of great folks who look out for each other - that's the most important thing!

Haven't seen this posted yet, if it was my baddd. Here you can pretty well see the Pearlmattes/Pigments/Betty quad/Betty's blush, which I expected to be a little brighter than how it looks here and in other pictures I've seen of it.
Do we get more MSF in this collection?
