Lol I'm going to just take my chances that CDN in WAD packaging will still be available at 7am EST when I get out of work on the 14th. If not I'll be happy just to get Stylized Brows lol

My first impressions and a little huge spamfest :) Firstly, I adore the packaging!  And I like the combo with my NOTD :) (NOTD is Dance Legend Axe) Golden Rinse - If you loved Aphrodite’s Shell, you’ll love GR too, I highly recommend it! Temptalia made it sound pretty awful, but I really really like it, the texture of the product is a-ok and the colour is perfect for my NW20 skin. Top: GR, bottom AS (AS is one swipe, GR is several swipes) Tumble Dry - I knew it was gonna be sheer, but it’s even more sheer than I thought it would be lol.  Hipness - Love this colour! Blendability isn’t really a problem imo. Although I don't think it's a super-unique colour, I don’t have anything similar in my collection. Here’s a comparison with The Balm Toile: Top Hipness, bottom Toile Crisp Whites - Swatched it looks quite sheer, but I haven’t tried it yet on mah face, so I can't really say anything about it yet... L-R: Crisp Whites - Hipness - Aphrodite's Shell - Golden Rinse Freshen Up - This product was a must-have for me, but I must admit I’m pretty disappointed thus far... I don’t find it easy to work with at all, if the colours aren’t mixed "well" it just looks yellow on my skin. Not a look I like to go for! I guess I just need to learn how to make it work for me, but I was surprised, I thought I was gonna love it. It also kicks up quite a lot of powder, at this rate it's gonna be gone quickly :/ L-R: FU1 - FU2- FU3 - FU Mixed L-R: FU1 - FU2- FU3 - FU Mixed - Crisp Whites So pretty in the pan: RIP overspray, still pretty: So powdery though: That's it for now, hope you enjoyed :)
Pretty swatches.

Daylight without flash. AB even turns out a little ashier irl, but my camera cannot capture this properly. Hth!

Thanks a lot for the photo!

Ash Blonde looks like it could be related to the PP Camel Coat. I know it is a bit different texture, though.

Kind of waffling on Freshen Up. Not sure it'll look right on my skin tone...but maybe that is because I typically go for cooler colors? I'd have to use it as a blush, most likely...I guess I could always grab it and see. Rather that than skippers' remorse!

Welp. My list has grown.  I also just took the day off and had it approved. Does this mean I officially have a problem?   Anyways, my list now is: Crisp Whites, Hipness, Colour Matters, Steam Heat, Sudsy, Morange, and Freshen Up. Though I am iffy on the liners...Temptalia gave them a C! And I am not sure if Freshen Up will look good on my skin tone.
Nope u good I took the day off with riri collections,marylin collection and the last one cinderella collection U have to do what u have to do
