Here's a look using Burmese Kiss & VPF palette. Love it!

Well that settles it! BK and Imperial Jade NP for me. Toying Around turned out pretty orange on me so hopefully BK looks exactly like this pic on me. If the bp sticks around a few days I might get that too but I feel okay skipping it. Thanks for sharing!

I'm a fan of the Mineralize lipstick formula - very hydrating for my lips. They're always soft and smooth after a day wearing them (or the Mineralize glosses, for that matter). I think they're worth the extra cost if it's a color you love, because you will find you will be wearing it a lot, when your lips need a pick me up. Dreamdaze is one of the most perfect, beautiful neutrals/nudes I own, especially in the summer when I'm a little tan. Total HG. You would love it for sure! Be Fabulous is definitely my easiest to wear pale pink and gets tons of use. Tropical Buzz looks strangely yellow-orange in the tube but blends with my lip color to make an amazing warm, nudish apricot. It's very unique. Love Temple is fun for my more-casual-than-Sushi-Kiss days and I like the new LE Touch the Earth - a little pale gloss on top and it works more easily than RiRi Nude. Special shout out to Pure Pout, which is a totally fuss free nude for any day. These are my favorites! Thank you for clarifying! It's so hard to get good photos of these bright colors. Descriptions really help. That is an adorable color - it seems close to stuff I have but cuter! I will probably break down and get it plus Lavender Jade. Was thinking about the eye shadow palette but I'm having a lot of expenses coming up, so I will probably skip it. The blue nail polish is looking like a particularly good version of a color that's somewhat common. I'm probably going to grab it. No BP for me - I'm sure it'll be great, but I have By Candelight, Superb and Fairly Precious, so I will live. 
I could never get RiRi Nude to work for me. I gave mine away along with Bad Girl RiRi.

That's great to know because I love this swatch! Still unsure if I am skipping or picking up an item or two :dunno:
I think you should pick up a few items :D

FS will look lovely on you! I'm picking up lavender jade and Burmese kiss as I missed them on the first launch

Here's a few more swatches that my roommate added on the other thread when it first released. I thought it would be helpful to add them here too:

She's much lighter than me (nw10) but the beauty powder still has a peachy glow when applied to her face :)

I hope T or Karen gets this Collection!! Sooo tempted by the VPF palette!! Would love to see some more swatches!!! :sigh:
I've been checking their sites literally 10 times a day for a potential review. If they don't get it together soon I'm just going to order everything on launch day. Lol

I think my final list is still just the polishes

The BP is pretty, but I have Superb. I'll live. I have gold shadows for days so I don't need the VP Palette. And the lippies! Pretty colors but I don't know. Maybe I'll go when it launches in store and try Forbidden Sunset. I think I just need those bright colors to be more sheer or they go clown on me.
