those swatches are lovely! TY for posting. I have both of those PP + FF and I have yet to experiment. You are making me want to track down the new LW however.
Maybe you got a defective one? I wouldn't say it makes my e/s flake off but it doesn't make an opaque base so it doesn't do anything to make the color brighter like other ones. It just adds those pretty silver shimmers. IDK, its sort of unique. I wonder if we try to layer it over or under another PP? Maybe just swap it back to MAC for FF??? I did really hate it at first b/c I love the pink color in the pot and I get none of that on my lid, its just like transparent with glitters but the glitters are so pretty. I could be biased, I am sort of a glitter bimbo. It is definitely different from the other PP, and that could be good or bad depending. I am trying to experiment with how to use it. Similar to the pressed pigments IMO, as they add very little color but lots of pretty micro glitter. (THEY migrate though, big time)
I have it but haven't played yet. I think they are still on the US site!
Still waiting to play, I was in a rut today, but in the pot it looks like Rubenesque--an oldie but a goodie! I think less golden than Rubenesque and more beigey-white gold if that helps at all...

Thanks MG! I have Rubenesque. Perhaps I'll pass and try using what I have for a change!

Okay not going to lie, a little nervous about posting but here is RS. I really wasn't sure about it at first because it seemed really stiff but as I've used it more, I've come to really like it. Hopefully, you will too! Sorry, picture's really blurry. :p

I got one from the holiday collection, not one of the new ones.  Did they change the new ones?  Because mine has gold shimmer, not silver.  I like the color, so I might try just using it on it's own, it shows up on my lid the same color as it does in the pot, but the amount of work I have to do to get an eyeshadow to show up over it was just bad.  It was like that when I first bought it too, so it isn't going bad or anything.



Miss Dynamite, I used Lets Skate again and really stared at the glitter. I thought it was silver, its actually pink/pearlescent. The color in the pot is pale pink with golden shimmer. (I have the Glitter & Ice one also.) It does make the e/s flake off! Its is like a Bizzaro Paint Pot which actually makes e/s wearing LESS not more. I hope this isn't the case with Mooncake, which I wore today. It has similar glitter, but the glitter is more beigeish gold. The color is neutral beige inside my wrist, but on the lid, all you can see is the glitter with a very, very pale golden beige color. I will report back whether it makes my e/s last longer or it flakes off like with the Lets Skate PP. I am curious still to see if layering Let's Skate over either a Paint or a primer like UDPP will make it stay put and negate its "eyeshadow flaking off effects."

It's so weird. I might try layering Lets Skate over another paint pot or something, but I don't really have anything it would look ok with. Who knows, maybe alone is best, lol.

I am so annoyed at myself for missing out on Eclair. I wanted that and mooncake (along with all the lippies, reflects transparent teal, and pink buttercream). I want all of those but I'm totally broke now (and I only got RRW and SLN because of some sheer luck with money that day).

*screams in frustration*

Here's me wearing the pink buttercream pearlmatte on top of peony petal blush as highlight and raspberry swirl lipstick (my new fav pink) and cherry cherry mineralized lip balm. Sorry for poor resolution as it's cropped from my face book profile pic. I really like the pink buttercream pearlmatte powder a lot and this is something to say as i have dozens of cheek products XD

I wouldn't worry about eclair. I got it on saturday and when I put it on it's just a plain old brown shade which I feel I've seen a million times before..

Me too! I saw that someone that ordered from the second batch already got theirs shipped. I'm checking my email compulsively in hopes that it'll ship before the 13th.
