I neglected the SSS when the powder ones launched but now I'm back into them. I think the shine on SSS beats the powder ones hands down. I'm really tempted to try this pink sparkly one tomorrow as I'm wearing pink but I don't know if it will distract from some work stuff I have to do tomorrow. I think I might have to do low key makeup. Ugh!

I ordered the palette. I forgot all about it and then I remembered and was so surprised it was still there that I ordered it. But what about those other eyeshadows I heard were being released today? Did I dream that? I was quite tired last night. I don't see any new singles on the site.

My last order came in today. My 5 million supershock cheek and shadow were shattered. This is happening with almost every order. So strange. Just with the supershock. The powder highlighters were fine. When I opened the 1 highlighter I got in a compact, I gasped. It was so beautiful. I couldn't find a name for it so I lifted the pan out and there wasn't a label there either. I watched a video where someone said they didn't have labels and I thought they just hadn't taken out of the compact and checked the pan. No nothing. The bronzer I got in a compact did have a label though. I bought one in a compact so I could switch different ones out of the palette I made so I don't like this. I think maybe they switched to using labels after complaints or maybe it was just an accident. I don't know when I'll play with these though. I got 3 orders in today. Overwhelmed.

I caved and ordered it too along with a SSS and large empty palette to hit $30 for free shipping. I figure I can use the new empty palette for the upcoming singles. Those are now being released on 9/15.
I need a self-imposed ban, lol!

That sucks! Luckily I've never received any damaged orders. I ended up with two separate orders during the 5 million promo so I'll end up with the two sets of the shadow and highlighter. The lippie stix and liquid lip did not interest me.
Did you contact CP about a replacement for the freebies?

Yes. I know the drill by now. Need a photo of broken items and invoice. As for the lip colors. I really like them. I actually got a compliment on the liquid lip at Sephora today. I was surprised by the liquid lip color. I thought all of the colors were some version of plum. It reminded me a lot of Mrs. from the Karrueche collection. I wanted it more plummy so I paired it with Mac Plum lipliner. I got a compliment on my highlight too. I think it was Velvet Rope. I like the Lippie Stix too. I will get a lot of use out of it this fall.
Oh the singles are coming out on the 15th? I didn't actually see anything on Colourpop's page about the collection. But I think quite a few things are coming out that week so I may be able to resist.

Was the highlighter you purchased Velvet Rope? I need to check it out. I ordered Bae Area and love it! I forgot to select Pan and received it as a compact but now that I think of it not sure if it is sold as just a pan. I love my bronzer in the pan I can't stop reaching for it. The label for the highlighter was at the top of the box on the actual flap. They didn't add the name anywhere else which is silly since most of us just toss the boxes.

I wish I knew when the fall collection (or "the fall edit" as Colourpop called it last year) will drop. From what I remember last year, it came out around mid- September. Hopefully, it will be coming out soon. I loved their fall items last year and their holiday sets (like the lip sets). I am holding off placing an order until the fall stuff comes out. I can't wait!

I think I read the new fall single powder pan eyeshadows were coming out this Friday.
I did buy and wear Velvet Rope on Saturday. All the pressed highlighters are available in pan form. Ooh I think I got Bae Area. Will move it to the top of the try list. Thanks
If you mean the broken highlighter I got, it was the super shock one from the 5 million followers collection. I don't remember the name but all the products were a a play on words re the Numbe five. Update on that situation is that they don't have any more product and are giving me a code. I don't know for how much. This time the breakage wasn't as bad as previous ones so I can use them but it does bug me because I made sure to order enough so I could get all 5 products. Btw I am wearing Take Five matte liquid lip today with MAC PLUM LIPLINER.

Anybody get any of the new powder shadows? I ordered 8 of the 17 released (really only 16 new since Let's Do It is part of the I Think I Love You palette). These are the ones I ordered:
Crown Jewel
Dragonfly
Fortune Cookie
Glass Bull
Hung Up
Lucky You
Paper Crane
Snake Eyes
CP finally shipped my Labor Day order so it should be here tomorrow. I received my order with the I Think I Love You palette yesterday.

I'm about to work on an order. I was only going to get a few shadows but I thought Pat McGrath was launching her shadows today and she didn't so now I might order more. Don't know yet. I did try another highlighter today. Pink toned - Total Package. Paired it with Mac Redlite strobe cream and the Mac pink blush from Mariah Carey collection.

Not sure yet since I just got it yesterday. I ordered Prickly Pear SSS along with it and wore that today. I briefly swatched some of the colors and they seem nice but I think I'll need to use it with other mattes for a full look. I think for days where I only wear one color it'll be perfect. I'll let you know as I plan to test it out more tomorrow.

I order Snake eyes, Imperial and Tea Garden. I wanted to order Dragonfly and Paper Crane but i'm sure i have similar in my collection.

Update - not sure what I was thinking as this palette does have mattes! I am wearing it today and didn't need to go outside the palette for a complete look. It has the matte highlight, transition, crease and liner shades which is all I need. I'm really liking it so far but it's definitely not unique enough if you already have plenty of shadows. I'm just a collector so I like to have all the new palettes.

Duh! I posted about wearing Total Package highlighter the other day. I just noticed it is in the highlghter palette that was first offered before they launched the single shades. I don' think I had tried it though. I thought all the singles were new shades. I didn't need two. Just thought I'd warn people who were considering it.

thank you for your input
I do like the colors yes I think it has 4 matte shades? I like to have different transition shades to choose from usually but I could definitely manage. I love the packaging on this one and I guess it's my weakness

Ha! I bought this and realized it it's the same, too. I'm kinda bummed I didn't realize they were the same as I would've bought Angel Food instead.

The packaging is my favorite part, too. Better than the usual white which just gets dirty so fast.thank you for your input
