so this collection will be discounted???

After that most things were. Dame Edna however was one of the first collections I heard of that wasn't discountable at all and no products were available for B2M (besides holiday and special sets of course). After that, we were told Hello Kitty Lipsticks were not available for B2M either. Since then though, Style Warrior products have been availalbe through B2M, and I also recieved my employee discount on those items as well. It seems to depend on the collection itself. Since McQueen and Emanuel Ungaro were discountable and B2M'able I imagine this collection will be as well. I hope that's informative! I'm feeling under the weather so my sentance structures might be a little off so forgive me! |

HIIII. I've seen this collection in Taiwan today. It's already been released.
The greasepaint sticks are heavenly and pure love. They are like shadesticks but better. They go on pigmented, smoothly, and creamy. They're like a creamier shadestick, because we know how dry those can be. Greasepaints are not blotchy or dry at ALL.
No extra warming up needed.
And intense black, I didn't see any redness in it to be honest like Bunny is saying.
The purple is pretty, but more red-based than blue.
The blue is GORGEOUS. It's a blue like Deep Truth, but really worth it in this form, but if I had to skip one, it'd probably be this one, since the color is dupeable in eyeshadow form. But I didn't swatch side by side, so I don't know how true this is.
Hope this helps!
I dunno about budge-proof-ness since I only had time to swatch and not try them on my eyes.
And I realized I didn't take pictures of the swatches, I should have. If I go again on Thursday, I'll try and get pictures for all of you.

I totally am. I see EVERY brand in the US here plus all the Asian country make up brands. Asia is definitely the land of makeup. US just doesn't carry all the awesome Asian brands.

Blood Red isn't "blood red" I would have liked it to be.
Love the Black Opal greasepaint stick though!

People that have seen them both, any ideas how similar Nude Rose is compared to UD's Naked?
