i only got love bud. i might get iris print or lavendar sky, but i dunno. i am saving my money for sweetie cake so i didn't want to go on a make yp binge just yet. also none of the lustreglasses really piqued my interest. they look so nice in the tube but they are too sheer.

any of the other lipsticks cause to me they are similar to other ones and didnt get the other lipglasses cause i think one looked like pink poodle and one like poopie. no violet underground cause i got enough purple e/s for liner and i dont really use liner. no overgrown cause i got bitter and thats all i need. botanical because i think it looks dirty on me.

Bought: Flowering quad

I didn't like this collection at all.

Well, I did buy Petal Pusher l/g, but I am returning it because the sparkles were gritty and really irritated my lips.

I just got Budding Lipglass. It's so pretty and fresh! I thought I'd love Sweet William, but when I tried it, the glitter was too big and obvious. I expected something more subtle. The e/s were no must-haves for me, since I already have over a 100 of colors. Trance Plant looked nice on the lips, but I already have way too many lipglosses and Budding is prettier. I'm quite proud of my reasonable spending

I just got Love-Bud e/s, Overgrown e/s, and Budding lustreglass.
Nothing else was just really for me, or looked too much like something I already had.

* Iris Print e/s unique but hate it
* Overgrown e/s its crazy so I just had to get it and plus I dont have bitter
* Love-Bud e/s hate it
* Spring Up e/s the only one I liked out of all of em
* Botanical e/s hate it....eww looks like dirt
* Lavendar Sky e/s this is the only e/s I didnt get why?Because I dont care for purples.

I thought Iris print was blue.I didnt even look at anything I just bought it.

Sweet william blush creme pearl - got this because of the new finish and hype about it.

dont do lips

dont like purple so didnt get the pencil...


when it comes to e/s they are more for my clients and not for me.I knew they would ask for culturebloom so I had to get most of the e/s.

i love how [Iris Print] shows up on my eyes! love it to bits. and that is the only eyeshadow that i have purchased from the collection. [Overgrown] is very nice thot but i find it somewhat similar or close to [Bitter], which i already have hence i see no point in getting similar shade. the rest of the single eyeshadow doesnt look tempting to me.

as for the lipgloss, [Budding] turn me off when i first saw it. but the MA told me not to be decive by the outlook of it. so she apply [Budding] + [Petal Pusher] and the color goes - vo-vo-la..

but i feel that i can easily replace [Petal Pusher] with [Morning Glory] that i had to achieve the similar result so i merely bought Budding.

and of cause, how can i leave the counter without [Sweet William]!

i was kinda of worry not being able to do a good job at applying the blush. but the MA was very nice to teach me.

neither did i bought the flowering quad. no doubt the color is very sweet and nice but i feel that they can be easily replace by some other shades, they are not that very special etc.

So far i have ordered
Iris Print e/s
Love bud e/s
Violet underground Kohl, i ordered these from the states before they were released in australia so i'm hoping i like them.

and i picked up petal pusher l/g today. I am loving it, it's sheer with a ton of sparkle, so i can wear it alone or over a l/s. I think i'm gonna have to get budding as well.

I got..

Overgrown e/s x 2 [ I needed a greeny color like this, esp. since i don't have bitter
ssad.gif
]
Iris Print e/s [ it looked so pretty in the pot ]
Botanical e/s [ I really have no idea why I bought this...lol ]
Lavender Sky e/s [ I like VP eyeshadows + pinks ]
Sweet William b/c [ I'm in love with blushcremes <3 but didnt get the other one because I don't think the color looked good on me...too peachy ]
I got all of the l/g and l/s except the brown ones [Trance plant and Plant a kiss] because I don't like how browns [or darker colors] look on my lips.

Also...I didn't get Lovebud e/s [ i really hate lustres ]and Spring Up e/s because I wasnt satisfied with the color payoff :\ They just wouldn't show up. Overall...I wasn't too happy with the eyeshadows but I really loved the lip products from this collection..especially Budding l/g + Petal Pusher l/g

I only got Botanical, because I'm into browns. I wasn't sure about Overgrown, but I have Bitter and find myself not reaching very ofter for it.
I didn't like all of the glosses and the lipsticks, I know MAC doesn't believe in the cold/warm thing, but I do and all the colours didn't fit to my cold complexion.
So I saved money for Deja Rose. I want all the l/s!

I got...

Love Bud e/s- its just a pretty color
Botanical e/s- i love this color, so versatile
Lavender Sky e/s- pretty pretty pretty =)

Awaken l/s- i love this w/ Uberpeach c/g
Fresh Buzz l/s- again, so pretty
Poppy Hop l/s- one of my faves

Petal Pusher l/g- a lil glittery but i likes
Budding l/g- samre as above
Flowerosophy l/g- i like this cuz its a different kind of lustreglass

Smoothberry l/l- i needed a color like this


I didnt like...

Iris Print e/s- im not a huge fan of velvets, the glitter just goes everywhere & not a big color payoff for me.

Overgrown e/s- i liked it, but it didnt look right on me, i love it on medium-darker skintones.

Spring Up e/s- didnt have anything to really go with it.

Culturebloom l/s- i was afraid i would look like a clown.

Florabundi l/s- pretty, but wasnt sure if it would look good on me.

Trance Plant l/g- too dark

Blossoming & Sweet William blushcremes- i just havent gotten into blushcremes yet.
