I've got Conjure Up and it's really nice, if you are fair you should use it a light hand with it but it's a really nice colour.
I have to swatch again Superdupernatural but I think I'll buy it and I'm not sure about Lucky Number n/p, is it streaky or not?

I'd love to know more about the texture of Lucky Number too.
Especially because it is a metallic finish nailpolish I am curious about how streaky it is. Kelly from Vampy Varnish: A Nail Polish Blog wrote that they are quite streaky.

I already have the entire China Glaze Romantique collection and I am curious about how close Lucky Number is to China Glaze's Admire from this collection. On swatches Lucky Number looks a lot like Admire but side by side Lucky Number could be cooler toned.

You own the entire ChG Romantique!
I haven't seen the nail polish IRL but Lucky Number looks streaky in the pics. Wow, the pics at temptalia and vampy varnish look very different. On temptalia, Lucky Number actually looks like ChG Emotion to me.
I'm looking forward to the blushes, Pervette, Boy Bait and Jingle Jangle.

Aww the collection only includes 12 nailpolishes.
I bought them all just for Konad. They are pretty as a base coat too but also streaky. But the new China Glaze Khromes are way less streaky I've read.
I love the swatches from Scrangie and VampyVarnish and other great blogs like Steph's Closet and All Lacquered Up. They are much more accurate than the nailpolish swatches on Temptalia IMO.
China Glaze's Emotion could be darker and warmer I think.

Now I want CG's Khrome collection! Thanks for the info
For the nail polishes in this collection, I first tried the 'pink' one and it applied very well but I felt I had excess polish on the brush. So when I did the silver one I wiped the brush a bit more this time, though I could still see my nail showing through after one coat. I had to apply about 4 times until it showed a nice solid colour. Maybe I was too delicate in picking up colour? So I will have to try again. I cant right now though cause my nails are done with french. I thought about it a couple times and then remembered I cant!
So it shows I am eager to!

I hope everyone who already got their Holiday stuff is enjoying them! I can't wait till i get mine at the end of this month!! Both, the counter and store already have their shipment
Looking at swatches this is what i like:
- It's a miracle and Mayhem MES's
- Jingle Jangle Dazzleglass
- Conjure up MB
Maybe:
Midnight Madness mes.
SDN-MB but in swatches it's too simmilar to Eversun and Fun N Games.
Let's hope i stick to this list.

I love Conjure Up! I am NW15 and I used the 187 from one of the brush sets, it makes it go on lightly. I think this will be my winter blush, and By Candlelight from Warm and Cozy!

That's what I'm doing too, using a skunk brush with Conjure up (an all synthetic one from Alima tho) and even then I'm using it super lightly...and loving it and Superdupernatural that way!

I am darker than you but Eversun on me is like nice peach, SDN on me is liking glowing beautiful peach/coral with highlighter or anything else to make it shine.
That's it, no more from me about it except I have worn it everyday since I got it. I also compared SDN to Fafi Hipness and they are close but hipness seems lighter but could be textures. EDIT: the two are nothing alike, hipness way more coral

You all make me more and more excited about the Minerlized Blushes!
Congratulations to finding Danger Zone and the #183 in your CCO, LMD84!
I especially love the brush too! Danger Zone has been neglected by me though.

I just saw this collection! The MBs are like the MBs from Sonic Chic, which are not very glittery like those from Grand Duos. I tried both on my cheeks. They are pretty, but they are warm colours so I didn't buy them. CU looks like Love Thing. I would get Gentle instead. She-Zam is beautiful because of the silver and red glitters. Jingle Jangle looks like Steppin' Out and Internationalist so I passed. I tried on Boy Bait and although I find the colour very pretty, it is sheer and settles into the fine lines on my dry lips so I don't like it. I can apply balm before applying the gloss but I'm too lazy. Pervette is pretty, looks like a softer and pink-er Fashion Mews. The MES are pigmented and smooth except for the glitter crescents.
Lucky Number is a little bit streaky. Jeanette, I think it looks a little bit more berry pink than the pic in vampy varnish. It is cool, not a warm pink.
I think I may go back for She-Zam only. I need to use my budget on holiday makeup wisely.
