Can't wait to try it all out tomorrow ... well ... not all of it at the same time at least

Thanks for the swatches!! I think my list now consists of...

-Frozen Dream l/g
-Snowscene l/g
-Wintersky e/s
-Arctic Grey e/s
-Eyeliner Pen
-Lashes!!

Not too bad!!

How is the color-payoff and pigmentation of the e/s? Especially Artic Grey and Wintersky. (cause these 2 are the only stuff on my wish list)

Aw, I have such an awesome mom...I was worried about being able to afford Chill with BBR, HK, and Dame Edna all coming up, and she bought me the shadows and 2 of the LGs for my Christmas stocking! Now the hard part will be waiting a whole week to play with them!!!

Me too

That Free 2-Day shipping and all the emails kept tempting me!!! I ordered all the lipglasses and the Black and Artic Gray shadows.

Has anyone actually tried any of the collection yet? Is it in stores yet, or just online?

OK, super dumb question... but where is the swatch thread?! I am new so I am still trying to find my way around here

Thanks for the tip about the liner pen... I was almost ready to order it with my shadows a minute ago, but held back... Now I am going to order it too - you twisted my arm haha!

I know!!! Why do they tempt us with all this new stuff?!! I might as well just order all five shadows since I will eventually buy them anyway.

Just ordered the antique gold glitter and the liquid liner pen... this free 2day shipping is killing me

 

[xxAngelxx]

Well damn. After seeing the swatches, I want Arctic Grey e/s an Snowscene l/g. I am glad, however, that I did pick up Wintersky e/s and Frozen Dream l/g.

 

[CantAffordMAC]

i think now i want the pink e/s and snowscene lipglass.

Thats it?

The sick thing is I will probably buy the liner later on even though I will probably never wear it out of the house because I'll get mad that I can't apply it properly on my odd looking eyelids. (I think they don't like liquid liners!... i keep hoping the next thing I try will work different for me..

)

How is the pen liner staying power/smudging factor ?
Somebody as any review on that ?

(Quicky scans email over again and again...) NOPE!! Just what I expected!! No 2 day shipping to Canada...just "free standard shipping" so in other words over 5 business days once they send it out!!!

Sometimes I wished I lived in the states to take advantage of those offers..lol...

Oh yah, WE DONT get the little black boxes shipped Canada either...just a plain ol ugly brown box...NOTHING SPECIAL!!

OMG I thought it was just me that got brown boxes. I wonder why that is?

i don't know why they put looks in our book if they aren't gonna go on the web or in the look book. kinda retarded if you ask me.

i hate almost this entire collection. with the exception of the liner and lashes (which we get both in gratis) and the glitters (which i already have), i'm staying far away from this collection. yuck! maybe that's why this site won't let me view the most recent page of this thread.

 

[TISH1124]

^^^^ I am so glad to hear you basically say...I am not missing much by skipping this collection!!!

 

[erine1881]

^^^yep. not impressed with any of the shadows or the lipglasses whatsoever. maybe because i like color.

its all too pale for me really.

oh, and SakurasamaLover-

the liner is long-wearing (12 hours), smudge-, transfer-, flake-, and fade-resitant.

 

[TwistedFaith]

Dang it! I was hoping to skip this collection, but Wintersky, Naked Frost & Snowscene are tempting me. I'll have to check them out this weekend. *crosses fingers, hoping I dislike them*
