Well, seeing as the funds are pretty tight in the PK household, I'll hafta pass on most of this collection, now. But I did B2M for Colour Crafted today
(that one may be backup-worthy), and I'll be at a f/s this weekend so I can get a couple of the glosses.
With all the mixed reviews of the MSFs, MBs, and MESs, I'm not entirely heartbroken about skipping this. Maybe I'll get lucky and grab some things when this lands at a CCO...

I was just playing with Funky Fusion (dang its gorgeous on) & I think I found a way to get the product on the applicator. When you're pulling it out of the top, push the backside of the doe foot into the plastic - that will leave much more gloss on the front side when you pull it out. does that make sense ya'll?
By pushing the foot against the backside (it squeezes, narrows the foot), so when you pull it out it won't swipe that much off of the front.

It's my dog Baby. It was her 3rd birthday on Sunday so I threw her a party and invited some of her little furry friends
. I got her a cute little outfit and a birthday hat
She looked adorable lol. Most dogs HATE putting on clothes, but for some reason Baby love them. She only lets me take them off her. When my hubby tries, she growls at him
BTW- I take it as a compliment if you get distracted looking at my Baby!

I loved all the MSFs in this collection, they were gorgeous. Unfortunately I was recently made redundant and with no money coming in I couldn't afford to let so much go out either. I only picked up Smooth Merge however it arrived today and I think I made a great choice - it looks so different to anything else I own. Excited to try it when I do my makeup in the morning!
What are everyone elses thoughts on the MSFs in particular? Oh and the 131? I was tempted but like others have said it seemed expensive when I have the 187 already.

That's a perfect stand for palettes. Where'd you get it? Is it like a dvd stand or something?

I hope this helps someone. I got the MES in Eccentricity, Odd Bits, and Girlish Romp. These are some dupes for Odd Bits: the pink is like Pink Bronze pigment, the grey is like Electra but frostier, the purple is like Plum Dressing but frostier, and the gold is like Jardin Aires pigment. These are some dupes for Girlish Romp: the pink is like Sunset B but frostier, the whitish color is like a lighter version of Golden Lemon pigment, and I don't have dupes for the purple or peach color (the peach swatches lighter than the whitish color, it swatches a very light peachish color). In Eccentricity, the bronze looks just like Tan pigment, the gold is like a lighter Golden Lemon pigment, and I don't have dupes for either purple. Beautiful iris isn't a dupe for the light purple. Nocturnelle isn't a dupe for the darker purple because it's darker and less frosty and bright.
EDITED TO ADD: I swatched the MES with mixing medium, and the colors are much more vivid when used wet.

Forget calling this town winterpeg, right now its rainterpeg I swear! LOL I'm just glad i was on the way home when I got drenched and I actually (gasp) skipped makeup because i was too busy doing laundry this am.
What this has to do with Colour Craft? Well I kept staring at MAC as I was walking into Circuit City earlier. I stayed strong and didn't go back... but I still want to. I'm hiding from more MES and the Graphic Garden collection. They are pretty and I must resist, MAC is not the borg, and resistance is NOT futile....
(Oh and I made my dad go see Star Trek movie at the Imax today... how I heart vacations, despite the rain that drenched me)
