Pro on the 2nd, everyone else probably the 3rd, definitely the 4th.So April 4th online? That means maybe Pro will get it a few days before. It's going to be a long week. I can't wait for this release! ompom:

It does appear pale white with pink undertones in the pan however has a lot of color pay-off when swatched.I'm confused...Opalesse is supposed to be white with pink shimmer.
Opalesse (excellent color-payoff) is unlike prior releases however Triple Impact IMO is comparable to Stylishly Merry. Regarding RTP, no similiarity noted amongst these. I however think that Triple Impact and the silver shadow (which I did not swatch) are the most dupeable ones. Smoky Mauve is much lighter than I thought it would be but it has a very nice subtle sheen to it. The closest dupe I can think of to SM may be Prettified CMP. Dimensional Blue is only a tad bit lighter than Smoky Pressed Pigment. DB is not a must-have for me but it is nice with a silky smooth feel and really pretty sheen. DB may look beautiful paired with Zestful. Zestful (a must-have) is refreshingly new and unique to the EDES family.So basically Opalesse is not like the past releases but Smokey Mauve is like Stylishly Merry and Triple Impact is like Ready To Party? Did I read that right?
The sheen and sparkle evident from Glorify and Superb was not as visible with the darker portion of DD. I think it may be best to mix both areas to get that effect. It was somewhat duller and a bit "pasty" swatched compared to the others if I remember correctlyThank you so much Debbs! Can i ask what slight difference you noticed with Def.Defined, altho similar to Superb and Glorify? I'm on the fence about it because i rarely use either one of these....especially Glorify..used it once maybe twice. Your description of the shadows have made me curious about them. I was so not interested in them and now I am lol.
This makes so much more sense, thank you!Opalesse (excellent color-payoff) is unlike prior releases however Triple Impact IMO is comparable to Stylishly Merry.

I think you sold me on only getting the EDES's from this collection and skipping the EDSF. To me it sound like the darker portion of the EDSF has a similar texture to the blushes. I might get Definitely Defined for that reason as a blusher but will now skip Double Definition for sure.The sheen and sparkle evident from Glorify and Superb was not as visible with the darker portion of DD.

They are different. I would describe Dimensional Blue as a frosty like sky blue. When I get home this evening I will swatch Divine Blue.Debbs, would you say that Dimensional Blue is similar to Divine Blue?
TIA!
Some much truer close up photo's of the products: Double Dimension, Shape The Future, Fiery Impact, Bareness, Opalesse, Dimensional Blue and Smoky Mauve.

But no Definitely Defined yet...

Off the top of my head I think Divine Blue has more aqua-like undertones but I am not 100% sure
The same here!My list isn't getting any smaller - I can't wait to haul!
