I think it's safe to say the big hits from this collection were the face kits lol even on Instagram when I look that's 90% of the posts!

I'm trying to figure out why I didn't get a free 2 day shipping option. Was there a minimum purchase requirement. I'm bummed my Sweet Vision isn't coming until Tuesday.

Are you Obsessed? Maybe you have to select it in the dropdown and it's free instead of $5? If you're Devoted you have to spend over $50.

Since you beautiful ladies let us in on how you layer your blushes, I am thinking maybe it would maybe be worth my wils getting yum yum to layer with the At Dusk blush in the sweet peach pallete. The two together may be so.ething to drool over.

The girl I screenshotted earlier from IG and posted here who bought Yum Yum messaged me swatches and said:

"Oh by the way, I just tried both powders on face. Now I like the pink aka yum yum the same way I like sweet vision. I use the yum yum as a blush and thru a highlight over it and the sweet vision I just wear it by it self as both highlight and blush.

Yum yum is more pretty like a blush than a highlighter"

I think she means that SV can be worn as a blush or highlighter on her and Yum Yum as only a blush.

I would love to see swatches of Sweet Vision and Becca Rose Spritz side-by-side if anyone is willing. Still not sure about getting SV. Thanks!

After looking at dupes, my list is much shorter. Leap of Delight is so close to Punk Couture and Potent Fig, and i have both of those, so i think i'll skip it. Saucy Little Darling is pretty, but too bright for my taste, so another skip. I got the cool eyeshadow palette from the 2014 holiday collection, and i like it better than the 2016 palette, so another skip.

But Pretty Dainty - pink coral shimmer - and Rabble-rouser - bright intense pink - eyeshadows are still on my to-test list - i'll probably get only one - and now i'm contemplating Dark Lullaby as a crease color. Plus i still want to test Yum Yum Yum.

Glad my list is getting shorter - i need to spend a bit at sephora to keep my status.

I just swatched and did a pre-sale on the Copper at my Macy's. Swatches soon. The other one, the blush is too ashy for me and it's matte so it won't work but for an eye shadow maybe. The highlighter in that one is pretty though.

Yeah I went ahead and pre ordered too as soon as I seen that the copper face palette sold out on the MAC site. I'm going to pass on the other saw your swatches and I agree with that blush being a problem

I got the two duos, SV, and YYY in the mail yesterday!

I'm cleaning the house and such and then I'll post some swatch pictures. :) I'm loving it all. I like Yum Yum Yum better than T. Yes, it's a littler dryer than Sweet Vision, but on my fair skin it's totally buildable.
