I got to see everything today :eyelove: it's all just so beautiful in person. I bought a backup of Camelia Rose blush. It comes in a rose pink box ;) I bought Desirio & Tenderly nailpolish & Rouge Coco Shine Etourde which is so beautiful in person. Here are quick store swatch pics. I will do good closeups tomorrow since its dark here. Camelia swatch is on the very top center of my hand. Angelique is to the left top. The waterproof liner is under the blush swatches. I loved this & forgot to get it. Below it in the middle side of my hand is left, the darker mauve pink from the quad TF, next is the darkeset shade in that quad, to the right of it is the darkeset shade in the other quad. I love TF, so I will get that online. To the right of the darkest shadows are the 2 glosses which are very very pigmented & beautiful. One is a deep fuchsia raspberry & the other is intense slight coral orangish shade. They are lovely. Bottom 2 left swatches is the shine Etourde - LOVE this shade. Next 4 are the ls. top 2 are the velvets, bottom 2 are the RA. He showed me the next 2 collections in the book. The next one is so Beautiful!!! pinks, roses & reds. The collection after that has very very bright blues, purples etc. This was so sweet - hubs was waiting in the shoe dept. of Dillards while I swatched the Chanel & chatted - there is this very elderly man that works in that shoe dept with a hearing aide that always chats with hubs while he waits on me, so hubs wanted me to pick out a pair of shoes so this elderly man would get some commission for Christmas :love:

The Velvets are stunning! I didn't care for it as it was VERY bright almost neon cast & didn't look strawberry red to me at all. I don't think it was the lighting & hopefully it was that ls that I actually swatched.
It the very bottom right swatch.

Sorry if someone posted this already (I didn't see it but could have missed it!) but here's a swatch of both blushes side by side. Camelia Rose looks more pigmented here to me but maybe she swatched the darker flower and lighter combined as opposed to just the lighter shade. I'm so on the fence about it!

Mine is pigmented. That does look more like the darker flower. The blush is more of a medium rose pink on me. I'll get you some good pics tomorrow so you can see it better.

Thanks Elegant! I know the darker flower would work for me - it's the lighter area I'm doubting. I should probably just try it anyway. There is little worse than skipper's remorse right? ;-)

PS Angelique is

I'll make sure that I swatch dark & light shades for you. Angelique is very pretty. I couldn't believe how pigmented it was.

Thank you elegant for the swatches! My local Nordies SA called to say that the collection was in. I am trying to hold out for NM online b/c I have a gift card still sitting in my wallet from several months ago. (I hate shopping in NM in person b/c the SA's are beyond pushy and follow customers around everywhere trying to sell $1000 skin creams. But I digress.) I will probably cave and go to Nordstroms tomorrow. At least to get the blushes.

It's dreadful Ella. I think I'll be swirling the two colors. I hate having navigate a dual colored design.

That's so sweet of you and hubby! The orange gloss is pretty. If the second shade on the bottom is Insaisissable RA then it's worth a second thought on my part lol

I can't believe Nordies has not yet put it online.

You're welcome friend! Yes, get the camelia blush for sure.

I hate it when they are so pushy like that.

I went to the mall to return something and came out with the flower blush, tisse fantasie , and tenderly. From nordstroms , my justification was that it was 10% off ( all cosmetics were at my nordstroms)
