Ooooooooooooooo swatches! Thanks soooooo much for that link Ponde!
My list is shorter than I thought it would be. More monies for Peacocky... sweeet

I'll be getting at least two of the lipglees, Bubble Lounge is a definate, not sure on the rest. I just love my Resort Life so I know I'll love these. I use it pretty much every day.
I Get No Kick eyekohl. I cant wait to use it on my bottom lashline and tearduct. Thats it, wow I'm pretty surprized! But I also plan on getting Lady Gaga with this haul before its gone. And probably gone romancin dcg since I lost it :(

MAYBE Feline. Not really sure yet, theres so many blacks liners out there. Plus it doesnt seem to have very good staying power. I have smolder e/k and it smears. I hate to have to look at my mirror all the time just to see if my liner smeared. BUT I also heard its an amzing liner so I'm torn. Thoughts?

The quad (I cant afford to get a quad mostly for caviar dreams and the other 3 colors are perm), polishes, and lipsticks are pretty dupeable to me. I have barestudy p/p and barely use it so no paintpots. The highlighters at first didnt know but then I found this and damn...I might like it...http://toomuchblush.blogspot.com/2010/11/mac-cham-pale-special-reserve-highlight.html crap lol

Too bad you haven't found your Gone Romancin DCG.

On Feline, it looks like it's highly YMMV: Some love it and it stays put very well, some hate it because it is a smeary mess. I think the best is to try it out in the store and see.
MACs kohls are probably the only ones I can wear on my waterline and they stay put.

Thanks for the feline review. I have an eyekohl and it doesnt stay on my lashline. I do have really watery eyes though. I use eye primer usually so maybe that would help with this liner.

what you guys think?
should I get all the paint pots? I love paint pots.....lol





Thanks so much for the link. Macy's has got testers now and I got to play with them. I really like this collection and here is my list:

Rose Ole Highlight Powder (the other gold one was a little too light for my NC30 skintone but still beautiful. I might reconsider.)
I get no kick eye liner (this will be so pretty on the lower lash line and it goes on really smooth)
Bubble Lounge (gorgeous pink-peach) and Straight to Head (light bronze) lip gelees
Let me pop and Dangerous Cuvee (LOVE greys) paint pots
Fix & Lavender (I am obsessed with Fix sprays. Ordered one backup. I am usually not a huge fan of lavender scents but this one smells really good)
Tinted lip conditioner

I skipped on all lipsticks, nail polishes, Feline eye liner and the quad. I was tempted to get the quad but the only color that I liked and don't have is Caviar Dreams.

Hope this helps. :)

i enjoyed translating that blog page in google. simple things amuse me.

as far as the collection, though, i think I'll just get a few feline pencils, maybe the fix+ lavender, and call it a wrap. not sure now about the paint pots. i feel like i'd look like an escaped Solid Gold dancer with all the shimmer in this collection, and I just don't feel very jazz-hand-ish after the holidays, not to mention overly spandex conscious.

Think I've come up with a list. This will possibly be my last splurge for a while, since the woman I've been replacing at work has decided to come back

(aside from the whole income question, I really like my job and the company I work for, so having to leave just sucks).

So here goes:

Flustered l/s
Bubble Lounge l/g
I Get No Kick e/l
Caviar Dreams Quad
Dangerous Cuvée

Most welcome girlies!

I was hoping the beauty powders will be more finely milled.Seems quite gritty when swatched or perhaps cos its thickly swatched?
Yeah, plus they are frosty icky. I am losing interest in the collection because of too much frost. I can't even get too excited about the lip gelees although I love the texture of those, because they are going to be glitter bombs. I don't even reach for the Resort Life anymore because of that.

Deffo have to get the Feline liner though. And Dangerous Cuvee, because I am okay with silver with sparkle.

the lip gelees look very pretty :) i keep looking at the pictures of them! but i have too many glosses! and they look kinda dupable and nothing special - to me anyways.

Just the I Get No Kick eye kohl for me! Hopefully that would be it for this collection. I wish they made a paint pot in a taupe shade, I would've loved that.

Sorry to her about your job, being the external is most of the time a nice thing, but it never means you grow attached to the job and the people. I am sure you find an even better job soon :)

This collection could be the first collection I'll skip since summer 2009. Grey PP sounds good, but I don't think I need another PP, especially a
grey one. I'm still on fence with Feline, but I'll probably skip that one also.

Not sure about the quad or the fix + lavendar yet. But I do think I want the Flustered lipstick and the bubble lounge lipgloss and the soiree nail polish. And I must try one of the paint pots. I have painterly and I LOVE IT! I really miss it right now because my Mom wanted to try it and I shipped it to FL. :( Anyway, I'd love to get another paint pot. Maybe Let Me Pop????

Exactly. I don't know how it would look on me. But, I'll probably end up with the other three since Bubble Lounge is quickly creeping onto my list.
