I'm really hoping that's the case.So do we expect other bloggers (T?) to have swatches up soon too?

We might have to wait until after the Pro release. I forgot where, but I heard a rumour that she doesn't receive as many PR samples as back in the day so she has to buy most of the collection and overnight's it.So do we expect other bloggers (T?) to have swatches up soon too?
Agreed! I dismissed it outright because it looks blue-based but it looks pretty adorable on Karen at MBB, and she is around the same skin tone as I. Although, I am a little concerned it look too similar to Betty Bright once it's on my highly pigmented lips; Betty Bright is a definite buy, so...Well I knew I wanted Betty Bright and maybe Boyfriend Stealer, but that light pink Betty lippie is looking gorgeous here! Not generally a lustre fan, but this pic makes it quite tempting...
My guess is they would make great highlighters (I've used Play It Proper under Salsarose) but aside from that, I'd defintely try it in person to be sure.Hi ladies, do any of the ladies that are NC45-NC50 think that pearlmattes will look good on our skin tone

T has all the promo pics now, but seems like she didn't get any samples.We might have to wait until after the Pro release. I forgot where, but I heard a rumour that she doesn't receive as many PR samples as back in the day so she has to buy most of the collection and overnight's it.
Uhm... Are those really the actual colours? Because I thought somebody here compared them to those colours but not necessarily saying they were the exact same thing. Otherwise I'll skippety skip Shell Pearl and get Flatter me instead. I doubt it though. The Pearlmattes aren't that shimmery, are they?T has the official product release information on her blog. Prices do vary a bit from what was posted here (IE, Pearlmattes are $30, not 29 as posted here). As others have asked today, the Pearlmattes are a combo of already released products (according to the press release):
[h=3]Pearlmatte Face Powder — Veronica ($30.00 U.S. / $35.00 CDN)[/h]
[h=3]Pearlmatte Face Powder — Betty ($30.00 U.S. / $35.00 CDN)[/h]
- Veronica’s Blush Silvery pink base (Frankly Scarlet powder blush) with deep pink hearts (Play It Proper Beauty Powder)
- Flatter Me Golden peach base (Shell Pearl Beauty Powder) with coral hearts (Foolish Me Powder Blush)
This definitely has me wondering if I need Shell Pearl and this one...
Online date is Jan. 30 (so maybe Sunday or Monday of next week on the website). Year of the Snake is online about the same time.
I doubt it as T says that, "I will not have reviews available until I’m able to purchase the products and receive them! I always post my reviews as soon as I can once I have the products. If there are no reviews, it means I don’t have the product!"I'm really hoping that's the case.
Mine surely did! Lol!!!Can't process all of this!!! Crap, my list needs to completely change!
Not sure about Magic Spells, but to me, in this online photos; Black Poodle looks like My Dark Magic from VV. looks like more of a pinkish sheen then the purple glitter of Later. I can't wait for Christine's swatches for a different viewBased on her pics, they look just like later and moonlight night, no?![]()

They look amazing wet. Try them with Fix+ or eyedrops, even water. They are also a multi use item. You can even make nail polish with them.What is the big buzz on pigments? To me they don't really do anything. I feel like it'd look ashy on my skin tone, anyone have any shade pairing ideas? Can you mix it up with the Veronica quad? n00b.
Your notes on Ronnie Red, I could have wrote that myself. Ruby Woo, ewwww MAC Red isn't so bad on me, but Russian Red is a mess. Too Orangey for me.Can I just say how much I LOVE Karen's reviews and swatches?I've managed to refine my list a bit and got reinforcement I want nothing from the Betty collection. I thought about getting the black pearlglide pencil but I have Black Russian which is black w/ silver and I love it. The Black w/ gold just isn't me. It's still all about the Veronica collection for me 1) Spoiled Rich Eye Quad -- Gonna give it a try. Last year's Wonder Woman eye palettes really turned me off w/ the awful quality. I'm a sucker for purples and while I'm in love with MUFE #92, I've also come to be very fond of e/s palettes. 2) Lipsticks - Yep, getting BS, DLG and RR. Ronnie Red looks so ridiculously blue red that i gotta have it. Strangely enough I have no blue red MAC lipsticks at all. Don't like MAC Red, Russian Red looks like crap on me and I loathe how Ruby Woo feels. 3) Lipglasses - I need all of 'em, especially Strawberry Malt. 4) Prom Princess blush -- it's pink and as such I must have it 5) Designer Purple and Petrol Blue eyeliners - I need backups and Petrol Blue is one of the sickest MAC eyeliners I own. My current Petrol Blue is a sorry-looking stub. I'm skipping the Pearlmatte powder from this collection because I already have Play it Proper beauty powder and my Salsarose blush looks close enough to the Frankly Scarlet used in the compact. I was going to get both pigments but...I've got Cinderfella which is such a sick silver glittery black which blends amazingly with any color.![]()
I layer the mess out of my lids, Nars Smudgeproof Primer. A matte setting powder, then a paint pot then the shadows. I've got it down to a science! So here is my small list: Ronnie Red Black Poodle Strawberry Malt Kiss and Don't Tell items I have to have and no breaking the bank which is always nice. There is no much coming out from MAC and there is no need to overdo it. So glad I found a few items to haul, cause for a minute there I was going to buy something just based on pure fandom. Glad it's working out. I wonder if the little comic book on her blog will be given away at the event. I NEED it.Maybe I should try paint pot and pigment to help me to because my lids are oily as well.
Yeah, I think that was a mistake. That is the actual product description, not product comparisons.Uhm... Are those really the actual colours? Because I thought somebody here compared them to those colours but not necessarily saying they were the exact same thing. Otherwise I'll skippety skip Shell Pearl and get Flatter me instead. I doubt it though. The Pearlmattes aren't that shimmery, are they?
Yup, get to stalking this weekend, my friends!This is not good. The paint pots still say 2/7 as the release date yet they are online. For archie's it says 1/30 for online launch and the events are after that. Houston, we have a problem.
