the cream is also a moisturizer, where the liquid is not, so that might help.

I mix the cream with my foundation...or if I am in a hurry I just apply it directly on my face before I apply the foundation...But most day I mix a dime size or smaller amount in my foundation before I apply it with a 187 or 109 brush.. I have never used the liquid

I just saw the new swatches. Very pretty! I love Summer Rose.

I try not to think of the nail polish too. I will stick to just getting Peppermint Patti.

What's the colour of the brighter shimmery pink eyeshadow?

 

[GlamYOURUs]

One of the blushes looks like Stark Naked! :O

the last collection i was really excited for was the fafi, but i was a little disappointed once i went to the counter. but this collection is so gorgeous and elegant!!

 

[Susanne]

I will get Rose Romance together with Sugar Sweet

Will I survive?? So many great new products?? Where to give my love first??

 

[lipglosseater]

Thanks Risser for the new pics and swatches!! Everything looks beautiful!!!

 

[genduk26]

i think if i mix... summer rose + blush of youth =

... but i'm not sure if i want to buy or not...

After seeing risser's swatches, I might cross off Silver Thorn eyeshadow (too much like my Shu Uemura silver) and the other two lipglasses (the new ones). I might get a lip stain, either Secret Crush or Tender Tryst, but so far the only thing still on my list is Magnetique.

 

[Susanne]

I will pass Silver Thorn, I love my Silver Ring

 

[caramel_geek]

Thank you so much risser!!!

When I saw the swatch for Love & Friendship, I was like: OMG! I NEED THAT!
But on second thought, I think I need to hold back on the nail polish. Tight budget. plus...I'll still stick with OPI for its quality. And I'm pretty sure I can find a close dupe for Love & Friendship from OPI.

If it were me at the counter, I would be swatching one product but eyeing the next product. In the case, maybe eyeing the other displayer. My eyes and hands would be everywhere!

I will get Rose Romance at the counter, Sugar Sweet and the RR quad by order

I have to play at home with all the new goodies!

Sussane:

I don't have Silver Ring. Do you think Silver Ring looks much better than Silver Thorn? Color-pay off and finish wise.
Cause I always thought Silver Ring would be much darker than Silver Thorn.
