So so true. I have a small sports car---I hope one of us at least has an SUV or a van!!!!

Come to think of it we might need to find someone with a temperature controlled truck.

  [COLOR=0000FF] Oh no!  That's not a good feeling!  The colors are really magnificent!!!![/COLOR]:eyelove:
I hope they get away with the glitters make them metallic. Tonight I'll try to use the glitter with an angled brush and make it as a liner. Hmmm

You know C, I'm wondering if you can use that center shade w/all the glitter wet---if so that might tame the glitter a bit.

Can't wait to hear more about it!

My Tangerine Dream arrived today too

(Sorry it's a bit blurry - I was trying to capture the dimension of the center shade as the sun was setting...an impossible task!)

Now THAT is gorgeous! Looks exactly like the promo pic!

Ladies, you must share! How is the pigmentation on these palettes?

I was modest and only ordered Pandore nail polish. I am really trying not to buy stuff.
I've been staying away from Specktra because I'm trying not to buy so much this year.

That said, I just placed a small order with Sugarpill and ColourPop.

My justification is that they're less expensive...

I tried the eye revival palette and the texture is super buttery and it blends soo well. None of the shades are matte and more satin! The last shade is a cake liner and the first a powder primer. Incredibly easy to work with and no fall out issues either. I tried to get good pic of the swatch but the lighting washes it out and makes the shades more bland,so I excluded that. But here is a pic in natural lighting and much closer to the actual look of the palette!!

So interesting that it's a powder primer. I assumed they meant just a light neutral base shadow to assist in blending the other colours. Does it have a special texture?

Not really! It feels like the rest of the shadows texture wise!! I think it would be neutral base shadow too and maybe they just described it as powder primer for the same reason?!!

I've tried it wet yesterday but once it dries they start to fall off. Btw, I got allergies on my eyes early this am. It's so red. I'm not sure if it's the glitter or the eyeliner in using. I'll try the glitters with a sticky base tonight. My mom arrives tonight at 7pm Pst. She'll stay in San Fo with her cousins until Sunday.

Ok ladies. Adding my Tangerine Dream swatches to @charismafulltv's! I posted a video of this on my instagram (see signature) that I think gives you the best idea TBH. On my skin tone, that light peach does not pop and it was really hard to pick it up on camera. But in person you can still see peach and it's got a little irridescent finish to it. This palette is really really lovely. I haven't tried it on my eyes yet so I hope I don't get glitter in my eyes! That center shade swatched smoothly despite the glitter so I'm hoping if I'm careful I won't end up with it on my contacts LOL.

Thanks for the swatches!

That tangerine shade is seriously calling to me. I know I have dupes of the other colours and I have oranges at home, but this particular one looks so fresh and spring-like! It'll carry well into summer. I'm trying really hard to resist purchasing this, but I'm not doing so well. Thank goodness it's out of stock right now!

It really is perfect for spring and as you said will transition well into summer as well. Hopefully they will restock it soon. I think if you love tangerines, you shouldn't skip this palette!

Enjoy it!!! I've found with many Dior palettes, they suggest that one particular shade is the base color and should be placed on the eye first.

Oh no with the eye issues. Not good!!!! I hope it gets better quick---maybe give it a rest from the glitter.
Glad your mom is visiting stateside!!!!
