I just looked at Sabrina's post and I thought Charming looks really close to Constellation glossimer. Wonder if she has Constellation. And after seeing her comparison of Pink Pulsion with other pinks glossimers, I must have PP!

I worry that Pleasing is too brown for me as I cannot wear brown lippies. Will have to wait until I see it.

A-mazing! I am in serious problems cause I am lemming the quad so much because of the two dark shades but I am not so sure about the two light ones and the super sparkle finish they have since I am reading that everywhere.

For those of you who have already got it, do you find it too sparkly for an everyday use?

If sparkle is way out of your comfort zone you may find it too much for "everyday". I don't care for sparkle either but I didn't find it too over the top so I felt comfortable wearing it to work the other day when I tested it out. Not really an everyday, oridinary palette though with the sparkle.

Ok ok. Here it's THE plan.

I am getting the quad for me, cause I can't do this to myself and skip those two gorgeus brown e/s and then, I am getting Magnolia and Pink Pulsion l/g as a present for my mom. She never wears makeup, just at her lips, which are never out of colour. So with this arrangement, I'll be able to enjoy also Pink Pulsion l/g

Am I evil or not?

Yes, I'm milkyway on MUA

The blush is indeed Pink Cloud and the pencil is the Clair kohl from the fall collection.

Anyone have feedback on the Splash Ombre D'eau (or any of the liquid eyeshadows for that matter?) I haven't tried this product yet, hopefully it's easy to blend and doesn't crease. The color is beautiful!

The Quad is Beautiful!

And Almus -- I think it is perfect that you are buying some products for you and some for your mom -- it's good to share!

Elegant -- I am dying over your pics

The quad keeps coming back to haunt me -- is that a sign that I need it?? You need to post a pic of you wearing your new goods (ya hottie)

 

[Miss QQ]

My experience with earlier ombre d'eau is that they blend very easily because they are liquids, but they crease easily too. I use it over Too Face e/s insurance and it is fine. They are very shimmery!

Thanks for the pics, elegant! I can't wait to get Pink Pulsion!

And your pics make me want the quad now.

- I'm so camera shy Michelle

The colors in the quad are so beautiful imo - but I only wear these kind of colors. The texture is wonderful & yes, it is "good" glitter - very fine & no fallout. Pink Pulsion is much sheerer than it appears in the tube. It is a brighter but soft rosy fuchsia pink, very shimmery & beautiful.

Karin - this is for you baby! OPI 20 Candles On My Cake

its even a little deeper blood red than in the pic.

sorry, I've had the polish on for awhile so its a little worn.

GORGEOUS!!! I was kinda tempted to return mine until I saw this.

Probably was Constellation I was thinking about. I know I had one that was just like Charming...but I sold it off.

Thanks ladies for all the complements!

Noooooooooooo not too sparkly at all. I wore that look all day, and it never.moved. Didn't fade either. Everyone was asking me about it!

And that sparkle can be blended down.I must say for the first time EVER, I found myself having to really blend out a Chanel eyeshadow!!!!

Normally, I'm patting them on to build the color.

I went to bloomies last night to get the Rose Temptation blush, and THREE DIFFERENT SA's asked me what I was wearing on my eyes. They don't have the Holiday collection yet. They all put an eyeshadow quad on hold/pre-sale after talking to me!!!!

Darn it -- I should have held off on my Chanel order until I saw all of you lovely ladies' pics of the quad! I bought all lip products and am now kicking myself about not getting the quad! Why is Chanel not doing free shipping (grrr)

This is going on the list for the hubs to buy me

I seriously can't wait to get Magnolia! That combo sounds amazing. If you aren't feeling camera shy, I'd love to see pics!
