The girl I had on the phone was also really enthusiastic about it!It's a beautiful blush esp. for pale skins. It's unique I think.

Esprit was on my Maybe list. It's really pretty but I'm still not sure lol lip products are my weakness so I'm really trying to not buy things that are too similar to colors I have (reminds me of a mix of Suspense and Dialogue) or I'll run out of space lol but I loves me some burgundy in the fall...Esprit - a soft slight burgundy raspberry. Its lovely

Luckily the fall collection won't release until August here, so I have time to save. I'm sure I'll love it, it's pink and it's a blush

It appears to change to a dry texture when it touches the skin instead of staying creamy. It probably won't feel oily at all. The NARS creme blush does something similar.

Dear elegant,
Please stop posting beautiful, hard to resist swatches. I will go broke. Then I will be out on the street, living in a makeshift shack made out of nail polishes boxes.
Thank you,

I'm hanging fire on the petal blush til I see the Superstition collection in mid-August.Luckily the fall collection won't release until August here, so I have time to save. I'm sure I'll love it, it's pink and it's a blush
I have a Sephora 10% discount coupon tucked away for use on the collection and the petal blush may find its way into my basket.
I think all the ladies here know how that happens!
A question- how does Gri-gri compare to Chanel's Moon RIver?

The evening I'm going to pick mine up is a VIP-evening and I'll get 25% and I also have a €5 off coupon, so that's a deal I couldn't resist

The quad is very interesting. It came yesterday at almost 7pm and in that light looked grey, even swatched on my (yellow) skin. This morning I'm seeing the khaki both in the pan and on my skin. I like it a lot for my coloring. I also like both single es and the liner. I do see the bruise potential in Hasard but I think I'll like it paired with lighter/brighter shadows, maybe even with a little Illusoire; for my eye color anyway I think it's worth working with. Did not care for either Alchimie (against my skintone) or Mysterious (just too muddy for me), but I'm looking forward to getting Elixir today. Love, love, love Inspiration blush
but sadly my rosacea did not
-- it caused facial burning for me. I love the color so much that I may keep it anyway to try again; my skin is at its most sensitive in the afternoon for some reason and that's when I tried it. I'm grabbing at straws, I know, but I would really like to be able to keep it!

Bad news about the blush, Winthrop. This happened to me with NARS blushes and I was hoping to find a replacement for my beloved Gilda in this collection.
On the other hand, great news about the quad, ESs and the liner!
Oh, mid-August is far away!
I'm a similar colouring as you but with silver hair. I use Shiseido's Patina often and it sounds as though that might work well for you.

You just set off alarm bells everywhere in my head. Chanel skin care gives me reactions and now you have me thinking that the cream blushes may cause the same problems. I've not ever tried a Chanel foundation, so I don't have any experience with their cream-based products other than the skin care. I really don't want to spend the money on one of these blushes and then have a reaction... Hopefully when these arrive here I can try one on in store as soon as the testers get opened (picture me standing at the counter waiting for the moment when the testers come out) to see if anything goes awry.The quad is very interesting.

Very pretty...alot like BTiB's swatch on my monitor, maybe a tad lighter and more shimmery. I think the quad would look great with your eye color, I still just wonder about how it will look on pale NW skin? Can't wait to hear what you think of it!

I received my quad, gri-gri, and blush yesterday. My initial reaction to the quad was "WTH did they get khaki from?" I plan to play with it a bit today, and hopefully I will see the khaki too. Gri-gri looks amazing in the pan, and I hope that color translates when applied. So sorry to hear about the blush!The quad is very interesting.
