It doesn't have that nasty self tanner smell. I've had a bottle for maybe 4 months ? I think. I use it first night 3 drops, second night 2 drops and then just maintain with one drop. Sometimes I do not use it for couple of days. It develops the most natural tan on light skin. Very even, not orange, not streaky not patchy... and I go only one foundation shade up when I use it. So it's not extremely dark on unnatural looking. Also when I exfoliate or don't use it for a while it just fades evenly.

Listening to you all, I am so grateful that there is not a single TF eye shadow from this collection (apart from the palette), that would work on me, that I can't wear bronzers, and that sheer lipsticks are a washout on me. That means I can concentrate on the blushes, (if we forget about the Chanel collection, which I have not.)
Hmmm....well Naked Bronze/Spice does not look so hot on me (too red), but I can't usually wear pinks or peaches on my eyes and love Golden Peach on, I am Casper pale and don't do bronzers but fell in love with Gold Dust, and the summer sheer lipsticks from last year and this year are among my favorite lipsticks ever despite having pigmented lips (and Paradiso is really not sheer at all). Not to tempt you into rethinking or anything....

Thanks, I agree with that after the first application, I'm surprised! I read that review before ordering. 4 months sounds perfect, the bottle is tiny! The body booster definitely has the fake tanner smell but it's not too strong.

I use to get backups, then I run out of real estate to store them. End up giving them away. The only backup I have held onto is the Chanel Notorious blush. Yep, still in the box. Figure someday I can figure out on to sell on eBay and can make some fast cash. I think it sells for some absurd amount the last time I checked. 
Luckily my collection is still at a place where there is room for growth! I just started wearing makeup last year, so my stash is small compared to many...but it is growing at a rapid pace :shock: if you ever are looking to sell or give away something, inbox me! ;)
But we are helping you, so you won't have to go to the shrink to process not having purchase the product when you should have. Even if you have insurance, the co-pay for the numerous sessions you will need for the shrink to work this all out is more then the lipstick will cost you right now. Plus the value of your time you will be spending driving to the shrink, the cost of gas to get there. You will be money ahead if you just purchase it right now.
:haha: You are absolutely right! I bought the BU lastnight :yahoo:

Have you gone to the counters to swatch anything? Or have you had the MUA use the items on you? I feel this collection is so universal..what are your undertones?
