Looks like they're using the same promo pic as the previous PC collection. I was kinda hoping they'd do a whole new one. :/

BOOO to using that old promo though... I wonder what the third pigment will be... Judging by the info that's come out so far (Magenta Madness? and True Chartreuse) I'm thinking from the promo pic that it will either be some kind of black/grey or an almost black purple or a neon green. Anywho... I WANT IT ALL!

I've just recently got into collecting pigments this year-- which started when I found tons of mini pigment holiday sets at my local CCO lol. I just kinda loathe full size pigments because it just seems like SO MUCH product. And I kind of refuse to pay full price for a full size because I know I'll never be able to use all of it lol. But whatev, that means they'll last me FOREVER! All of the Nocturnals pigments are coming home with me this year, I cross referenced the colors with what I have now and there's only one that I'll end up duping so I'm good with that lol!

They are so addicting! My collection is mainly indie pigments that I'm trying to find a place for. I think I'm going to have to break down and tackle the task of pressing them all and putting them in palettes.

I came to this thread because the one for Divine Night has so many people saying they're saving up for this collection - and it made me curious. x] I'll be honest - "Punk Couture" is such a lovely purple. But with my lips being on the thin side, I feel like any of the colors for this collection would just make them shrink even more. I suppose I could put lip gloss over it but I hate using multiple lip products, too [[lollazy]].

On top of that, I'm not too familiar with the retro matte formula. I own one lipstick in it - "Flat Out Fabulous" - but I received it in the mail during the past week, which was the week I had to stop using everything because my skin threw another tantrum. I just went to the derm today and am happy to have reassurance that my makeup more than likely isn't the cause, so I'll be able to try "Flat Out Fabulous" soon. But even so, I bought it mostly for the color than the finish, and I know for a fact that I prefer glossy, hydrating lipsticks (though I do enjoy the Wet 'N Wild matte lipsticks!), so I don't know if I should bother with a really dark lipstick in the drier matte formula.

And that purple....as gorgeous as it is to look at in the tube, I don't know how it will look against my skin. I'm fair/light, and I know darker colors can look gorgeous against fairer skin, but I just...can't see it looking the least bit flattering on me. I guess I'll wait for more swatches before I decide to bar myself entirely from this collection.

This is all pretty much I did when I did the South Beach Diet. SBD is supposed to be a lifestyle and when I stuck to it, it worked. But, unfortunately, I wasn't disciplined enough. :(  
Awwww. :) but with this type diet, you eat every 3 hrs , with snacks too, it's not too late for u to start bk...just do it like Nike! Also what helps...don't keep your bigger size clothes...keep your slimmer ones so u will less go bk to that big size..lol

Some people seem to get away perfectly with black lippies. It's not a color I would wear personally but if you are the person that is able to pull it of than...GO FOR IT!
Thanks NaomiH

The pearlglide eyeliners make pretty liners for black lipsticks.I tried different pearlglides with Black Knight and
Pristine (Illasmasqua) and loved all the results
