I gave in and bought 5-couleur in Dream Matte today. At least it's a perfect excuse to buy two new lipsticks: Clarins Joli Rouge in Soft Plum and Pink Lilac. :)

According to russian information, I've gathered the following:

The collection is called Metallics.

The sticks are a combo of the blush sticks from two years ago and the contour sticks from last year. One side is a blush (the brown can be seen as contour for some), and the other side are iluminators.

There is a burgundy liner and those two products in the corner (there are actually three) are for the brows (three shades in neutral blonde to brown, similar to the brow chalks from last year).

The two eyes palettes are boring, but they'll be good basics. Both have two "normal" shades and three "metallic" shades (one pulls more glittery than the other two). Well, it's kind of obvious looking at their promotional pictures. I still want to try them to see though.

Supposedly, the metallizer shadows are like a bastard child of the mono fusions and the liquid shadows from two years ago. I don't understand why they insist on this type of packaging for shadows, nor products that can be used on the lips and somewhere else (the lip and cheek glow was another one). Most don't want it. Why haven't they continued the cream shadows, or relaunched them? Truly, I am a very sand panda on this.

The lipsticks are very pretty shades, they'll be popular. So check them out as soon as they come out if you're interested. Three are matte, two have shine, and one is metallic (the red one).

The nail colours are three metallics and one crème. Supposedly, the darker one is not black, but very dark green. I very much doubt that, as it doesn't really fit with the rest of the collection (then again, neither does that odd lilac metallic one).

Thank you! Didn't they have a "Metallics" collection just a few years ago?I think, I remember the name.

If anyone was wanting the Attract eye quad from the elusive Care and Dare collection, it is up on Nordstrom now. Any Canadians can purchase it online at Holt Renfrew. Attract is the eye quad with the gorgeous warm browns/golds and that awesome hot pink in the middle. Other than the lip tattoos, Attract is the only item launching from the Care and Dare Summer collection in Canada, but at least it did! It's really gorgeous for summer:icon_cheers:

I have some specifications about the fall collection. Take into consideration that I didn't swatch anything nor did I see the product itself, I usually only see graphics.

The Metalizer shadows have the full name 'Metalizer Eyes & Lips / Creme Shadow / Long Wear / Metal Effect'. The package is 8ml, which is huge (for reference, Mono Fusion was 6,6ml and Fluid Shadow was 5,5ml). The colours are about the same as the Lustrous Mono from last year (I'm still wondering what's the point of this, yes), the purple one is especially pretty (it's more purple than Temptation, it might be the first to go if the reviews are good).

The 5-colours palettes are very shiny.

The two brown rouge diors are very, very pretty. One of them looks like Cosmopolite, which was a hit. Perhaps more brown than burgundy.

Another thing, the Paradoxal nail colour might be dark green after all.
