When I saw the display the first one to catch my eye was Constructivist -- lucky for me I already have it -- so beautiful.
I already had Constructivist and I love it. I use it much more than I've ever used Painterly. Speaking of Painterly I think I'm going to put it in my B2M bag.

It's straight up light blue.


I agree that it is absolutely not seafoam green. But it's much warmer than a pure light blue. It's a muted aqua. I like it - i can't wait to try it under Sex & the Oyster.

Your swatches look just like mine - although i didn't foto them - i put them on my inner arm. I tested Clearwater, Stormy Pink, Camel Coat, and Perky. I skipped testing Layin Low and Tailor Grey. Layin Low won't be a good color on me. And Tailor Grey looks too much like Maybelline Color Tattoo Tough as Taupe, which is awful on me (might work as a base, though; i need to test it).

Camel Coat was OK, nothing like it is in the pot, just a pale cool beige, nice, but i don't need it.

I love Stormy Pink - i think it will be very versatile. And Perky was new to me and will be great under all those orange & peach & warm pink shadows i've gotten this year. I'll probably get it, along with Clearwater and Stormy Pink.

But i'm not in a rush, 'cuz i got sooo much makeup this summer - even being out of the loop for three weeks - and i need to cut back. Plus i think next month will be a killer, between RiRi MAC Fall collection and Divine Nights, plus Spider Queen from the Rick Baker collection.

So I just got back from my counter, and stormy pink was exactly what I have been hoping for from the start. I plan on getting a few more later, but what I thought was hilarious was that all of the mua at the counter kept calling camel coat as camel toe LOL. It is forever broken now, I can't unhear it.

OMG. I actually looked at it in the store and that's what came to my mind. I chuckled to myself. It's officially Camel Toe now.
Ouch! Makes me think of a close-up photo of Miley Cyrus in that hideous latex bikini...

I haven't read through this whole thread, but has anyone noticed any similarities here? The formula is different, but the colors are similar, especially Clearwater.

In each swatch photo the pp is on the right and I took pics with flash and without. I ended up not taking pics of Perky because on my hand the palette shadow was way lighter. Very similar, just several shades lighter.

The palette shadows are much creamier and have more slip. When I was removing them with wipes I really had to rub to get the pp's off, but the cream shadows came right off.

oh good! i have that palette! i guess the prolongwear aspect would have been nice, but at least i've got the colours...

I have been out of the game for ages, quick question the lady at my counter would not answer me, is this a permanent collection? Sorry if someone has asked it already.

Tailor Grey...



Clearwater...

Is that the Spring 13 eye palette? I am wanting it now. Its probably OOS. I think these could be used on the lips as well?

I do not see anything wrong with these swatches. Maybe she wanted to apply it thick like that to show the color?
