Neonkitty - During the F&F sale I ordered lots of paintpots and i had to have my dad help me open them. Luckily he was staying with me at the time or I'd have gotten extremely frustrated. ~L~

Even my husband couldn't get greenstroke to open. But just a pinch, apparently I'm just a wimp.

Yeah but, I just handed it to her because she said she wanted to try it, and she popped it right open. She has clearly mastered slight of hand, or....I'm just a wuss.

If you put it under really warm/hot water in the sink, let it warm up for like 20 seconds, and then dry it quickly and twist open. It should open really easily. I hope this makes sense!

My mom taught me this for metal lids/glass jars, didn't think it applied to plastic lids, but I will try it next time, thanks!

I was all excited about this Quad. Oh well it is probably for the best since I just ordered Get Baked set from Urban Decay (I was bored at work lol). Oh well I guess we will have to wait until May 20 to see if we get it!

Re: The whole paint pots being impossible to open--the whole rubber band around the cap and twisting the hell out of it trick works too. It's a pain, but it works.
Haven't picked up anything from this collection yet...waiting for the Nordstrom quad and deciding from there...

I think I've bought everything I wanted for this collection, and am SO ready for Style Warriors now!
Here's my haul from the RR collection:
Way To Love l/s
A Rose Romance l/s
Magnetique lipglass
Secret Crush lip colour
Loving Touch lip colour (I got a backup of this too- I know it's pricey for a sample size, BUT I just LOVE the color so I had to!!!!!)
Just A Pinch Gel Blush (Can you guys tell me how you apply this???? It never comes even when I use my finger, but which brush would be best)
Mutiny Pigment- LOOOOOOOOOOVE THIS!!!!!!!!!!!
Circa Plum pigment
Silverthorn e/s- I doubt this can be duped
Blush of Youth bp- this color is just gorgeous on my NW20 skin. It has just the right pigment to use as a blush. I got a backup of this. I've been using this EVERYDAY!!!! LOVE IT
Summer Rose bp- I'm still getting used to this color. On my skin it shows up a little purple, so I have to use a light hand as it's super pigmented on my skintone. I only use light pinks or corals as blush, so this color is definitely something I don't already have in my collection.
None of the other eyeshadows really caught my eye. They didn't seem that pigmented and I already have tons of highlights. I also didn't really like the fix+ rose as much as I thought I would. I might be in the minority, but I actually like the original scent more than this one (my wallet's not complaining though lol).
Overall, I really liked this collection. And I'm really trying NOT to go get more backups. There have been SO MANY collections in the past that I have regretted not getting backups. I've spent so much getting them on ebay afterwards. So lately I try to buy backups of the things that I love. The lipsticks in this collection- although they are gorgeous and I love them, don't seem backup worthy to me as I feel I can find similar colors. I already got a BU of the BOY bp, so I don't need a 3rd as I might love something from the colour craft coll in july even more. I'm REALLY loving the loving touch lip colour. I've been using it everyday, and it just stays on, I don't even have to touch up at work. It looks like I have lipstick on me that never comes off. I bought a backup of this, but I'm thinking of getting another one for fear of not finding something similar. But I know deep down, for the price and the size I get for it, it just isn't worth getting a third one. Can someone here PLEASE talk some sense into me. I think I need to hear it from someone else. I know I'm going to use it, but is it really worth it.

Aww, I don't know if I can talk any sense into you (and I don't think you sound very non-sensical to begin with
)--it took me a while to get over that whole "OMG I need a backup for everything LE" feeling--but sometimes just looking at all of the backups you have over and over again kinda kill the desire to get more. Or you can always tell yourself that you will be able to find it at a CCO...and then by that point something else you love will have come along...
Good luck with staying strong

Et tu bouquet--LE, finish?

Thanks!

Also picked up Carbon as I want to try a look with Mutiny, Silverthorn and Carbon.
