I was surprised to love the blue eye palette so much. The pale blue shade gives a pinky lavender iridescence, making it more wearable for a wider range of skintones. The bottom half of the display is all limited edition (except for the Liplift lip primer), so I think there's a high chance I'll be getting the Meteorites blusher and the blue eye palette."

Thanks for sharing Patentg33k! Very interesting display....not quite sure how I feel about it in terms of the color
selections, but then again I've been pleasantly surprised by odd color combinations.

I have the Voyage pressed & its very nice with no shimmer. I would love to know how the new one compares. I would like the glow too but I need to hear that it is beautiful skin in a tube

Like soft focus diffused pretty stuff
That's encouraging to hear!!! The Baby Glow is very intriguing

I'm really eager to learn more about it. I'm a baby and I wanna glow!!

I'm looking for it to just add a glow under foundation. I doubt it's anything that's going to match my skin.

I was thinking that it might be like the Charlotte Tilbury Wonderglow Beauty Flash Primer, which you can wear under or over your foundation. The only problem for me
is that it broke me out when I wore it as a primer. I'm ok wearing it over my foundation but I wasn't wowed by it. I think I need to try it again because since it's not
something that I routinely do, I forget to put it on. Too many options.......balls & pressed balls and beauty powders and correcting powders....OYE!!!

I've gotten foundations that you've tried and suggested. That would be great. If it's anything like the Dore 04 Météorites it might be deceiving----Dore oxidizes and really
darkens on me.

I picked up two items from Saks; the compact and blush perles. Very pretty!

Which compact did you get? Would love to hear your impressions after you get to use them.

Is the compact one glittery???

@Medgal07 04 Dore, based on light swatching I did at the counter, it created a very soft, luminous soft focus finish. Colors aren't exactly the same as the perles in the tin (I really like the chocolate colored, uh, pearls in that one) but it's still very nice and sheer.

@elegant-one Nope, not glittery at all! I'd say it has the same soft focus shimmer that the permanent perles have.

Mine says out of delivery!!! I am tired waiting for the FedEx van :sigh:

​Thanks so much NYCBJ!!! I'll probably order 04 Compact after my 03 arrives, just for the variety.

I think someone mentioned that they would be perm.

Sounds like I need to see if I can get to a Saks on Sunday. Is that where most people are seeing these on counter?

I cancelled my Nordies Blush order & just ordered it from NM. I think I'll get the compact, but I would like to know if its perm.

My Nordies didn't have the baby glow. I was going to pick it up.

PICTURE OVERLOAD! They've arrrrrrriived!!! I got the Blush balls and the 02 compact. This opinion is only my first impression, as I haven't done my makeup yet. I shall be using the blush and the compact in my routine today.



Blush: The packaging makes the little blush perles look so TINY! It's hard to see in the photo. Mine came with zero "ball dust", even though it was shipped upside down! The sponge was absolutely saturated in what I assuming would have been the dust at the bottom of my container. I tapped the sponge on my hand to a giant cloud of glitter and pink. Oh no! It's Glittery!? However, I got out a dense angled blush brush and applied it to my inner forearm. No noticeable sparkles indoors. However scrutinizing my arm in direct sunlight, I saw tiny flecks of sparkle. I guess this depends on your tolerance for glitter/shimmer. The color took a lot of swirling in the container and swipes on my arm to become how it is on my arm. I'm going to play around with brushes and obviously over foundation and see how it fares there. It is glowy and beautiful though, in my opinion.

Compact: Good news for you non-sparkle ladies! The 02 compact is no more shimmery than my perm. 02 clair perles. It was hard to get a swatch of the powder, but it looks as nice and glowy as the perles. The only "shimmer" shades in the compact are what would be shimmery in ball form, too. The white and off-white shades. I can't wait to try these out! I kind of want to see the Medium ones in person for maybe added warmth. The 02 blends perfectly into my fair skin without looking ashy or powdery.

PS: All of these photos were taking facing a window using natural lighting.

HTH!!!

Thanks for posting Lauren! I'm happy that the compact is in line with the current versions!
