OMG-- That must have looked amazing! Club is beautiful and that subtle transition would be stunning. I actually have a Face Stockholm color that is in the same range but probably a tad less bright and maybe a hair more green-- I have to try that.
I'm pretty impressed with Olivine. Because it's such a chameleon, I think it holds numerous possibilities in terms of eye looks.

I just used the darker shade as a liner and the lighter shade on the brow bone. One could also do the combo in the crease but that would be too dramatic for my current location. I also have the Shu green palette so that would also provide some interesting options to build around Olivine. It sounds like you are a green girl like me, Ernie, and to have a creamy neutral green without heavy shimmer that unifies the lid is a missing link for me. Wonder if I have to get a backup.

Same for me on Laurier Rose. When I swatched it on my hand, I was in love. But on my eyes, it was scary. I could totally see it as a lip color or even a cheek highlight dab. Wonder if there are any comparable colors intended for that purpose. I did see a Makeup Forever orangey-red-gold iridescent color that was in the range. The SA at Sephora talked me out of it. The tester had oxidized and was different than the new pan so never got it. When it comes to pinks around the eyes, I am better off with cool tones like the TF eye and cheek or even the Lancome la Parisienne is just neutral and cool enough to be wearable.
I need to do some experimenting w/TF Jade.

If you love vampy colors, the deep purple in the lip gloss is to die for. Perfect match for the recent 5 pan color with the deep purple and bottle green shadows. I use a lip brush to apply, or you will end up with too much product. I also use the Tom Ford lip glass in pink or clear (frosty white) to add the boost of shine. Not sure it belongs in the summer collection. But I love dark lip colors, and you can control the depth of the color without much effort.
I keep looking at it and wanting to buy it. I enjoy coordinating my colors from time to time & thought I could possibly go all out with it and Campanule on my eyes and
Lavanda on my nails. My fear is that I'll buy it and then not use it.

I didn't think i'd love any of the RCS colors but when i tried on Reveuse, I had to have it. Beautiful soft color on me. I really liked the orangey-red one (the name slips my mind) but I'm trying not to shock my wallet with one giant haul.

I feel less "guilty" when i acquire collections in small amounts.
I only picked up one----Amorosa. I think you might be referring to Insoumise, described as a pink-coral.

Amorosa is the only one listed as limited edition so you can essentially order one a day!!!!

LOL so true!!! I jumped on the Tom Ford Band wagon. I might be skipping Mac's Wash and Dry after all.
I was debating the MAC blush/highlighter because it looks so gorgeous in the pan, but two thirds of the surface is yellow-golden which is iffy so it's an easy skip for me. Some of the brow products might be interesting but no reviews of them yet. In using my first TF blush, I can really understand why everyone loves them so much.

What is the name of the purple gloss? I am not seeing it on Chanel.com

It is Deep Purple #50. It is the two ended gloss with the clear top gloss and the deep purple on the other end. Again, a light hand or your lips will come in the room long before you do. Still love it.

Insoumise, yes! Pink-coral!? Too funny, it totally looked like a warm reddish orange on me. Perhaps it was the lighting in NM. Good to know only one is LE. Thanks for the heads up! I won't have to get it right away then!

Are you planning to get anything?

Laurier Rose is #1 on my list, followed by Lavanda. I want to swatch Caroube and Amorosa and to see Terrana. From what I've seen on skin tones close to mine, the bronzer will be very orange on me, so that's a skip (it might surprise me though

). What about you?

Yeah, I guess the Bronzer is a skip for me too!

I'm really interested in the Stylo e/s. I love them from the time they came out two (?) years ago. I definitely want to swatch Olivine and Caroube. (And I guess those two are coming home with me!
