I'm just so glad I'll finally have a chance to get Lavender Whip. I don't know what rock I was under when it was released in the past. LOL.

Man. This collection is really disappointing me. I agree with erine. Why the hell would they make color lip balms and all they do is show up f*cking clear? What's the point of that? If I buy a blue lipgloss I expect it to be blue on the lips! I was thinking about Glace' but, now it's a pass as well. I don't think there is going to be anything in this collection I'm going to jump out of my seat for. I just hope the Summer collections are this much of a let down.

Pure Decoration and Devil's Food...

I don't know if I'll get either of these. I kind of like Pure Decoration but not quite sure yet.

Now please show me Raspberry Swirl.
Thanks for this! I doubt I'll get either of them either. Pure Decoration is a little to pale for my liking... At least now I know I'll be only getting the other lipsticks. *shrugs* more money I get to save

If I would've known that I would've waited to place my order with the ed collection.
ED would've sold out by then tho.

Is anyone as dissappionted w fancy frosting pp as I am? I was heart broken when i heard that the texture was gritty... I was hoping to use it as a base to make my colored es pop... Is anyone still thinking of getting it?
I was hoping for the same thing. The last thing I want is a gritty, patchy base though. I thought April was going to kill me and my wallet, but it looks like I may survive if after all!

I was hating on the Pearlmattes (they aren't my style at all) until I saw swatches. Now I'm thinking, "Who cares if they look like granny panties, I'll just be using them at home..." I think they will both be good for me since I am really fair...like, Seattle fair. Any of our resident color experts have an opinion on this? Erine? MacGuy?
I'm a paintpot junkie, but I think I'm going to wait for swatches and reviews. There are a couple of nice colors, but I don't think any of them are that unique.
I'm still intrigued by Raspberry Swirl, but the "white" in the description is a little off-putting to me. I'm afraid that means it may be chalky looking. I definitely need to see a swatch of it before committing to it.

I'm sticking with my previous opinions on PMs.

Yeah. I'm on the fence with most of this collection. The pearlmattes look pretty and they probably would work for my skintone too but, there just not that unique except for the design. I have plenty of highlighters and light blushes. I guess I was just hoping for something a little different. Higher expectations I guess.
