Cool. So I'll definitely try before I buy. And if I don't like it, maybe I'll pick up Peaches instead.

Thanks for answering all my questions today!

Yes!

Thank you Erin! I think I'll skip the blushes from this collection. I have a hot pink blush (Full Fuchsia) and enough peachy blushes which will last me for a long time. I will spend the money for something else such as pigments and pearlglide eye liners.

I have a sample of it and the base texture is flaky, chalky, dry. It's not my prefered smooth pigment texture like antique green, teal, old gold, pink pearl etc... It's workable when used wet but still makes me go

lol

That being said, I think these ones are worth the extra effort.

And yeah mutiny and mauvement aren't the best ones either. But I still can't give up my precious mutiny.

^You will not regret getting it. Thinking about how it would look gorgeous with the Reelers & Rockers Palette!

I can literally feel the drool inside my mouth when I see this

 

[PlatinumV]

backup? That's a good excuse for buying also the sets in which I already have pigments ^^
By the way, finally today I am getting my VV order! ^^ ^^ ^^

These will be the pigments that bring pigments back into my collection, I can't miss them. I think MN will be gorgeous over Greengrease GPS and TFC over French Quarter or Brown Now GPS will be yummy!

Erin...thanks!!!

Great ideas! I'll be trying both of those.

Also, my mom doesn't really approve of my makeup addiction, but I emailed her the link to the swatch of The Family Crest, and she was like "oh my god! you have to get that for Halloween."

I thought that was cute.

I got one last year because I loved 2 of 3 of the colours and I still thought it was worth it. Though I have used that third colour a few times just lightly applied with my finger. I think it's a great deal if you will use at least two thirds of it

Colorado sounds so nice! You should go visit your dad. You'll love it.

I've been there a couple of times, and I really enjoyed it. The fall colors I saw there was something I will never forget. (nature!

That's a good way to look at it.

Ugh I know- I used to love spending my summers there. I miss it a lot. It's so hot where I live, so the breeze and all the green trees are always a nice change. I think I'll try to go early next summer.

WOW I love the look of Family Crest pigment

I can't wait to get it!

I think I might pass on MHH since I'm a yellow NC 30/35 and don't want it to turn orange. I have RP, ML and IC so I think that'll be enough. Unfortunately I can't swatch so won't be able to try it.

So it looks like my list has come down to only two items *gasp*

Family Crest p/m
Lord it up pgl

That's good, I have to stop spending so much

 

[Visi]

Erine, I posted your swatch in the swatch thread

I hope that's ok, if not, let me know and I'll remove it!

 

[Ilenia]

I wanted to skip the pigments and get a pigment set instead but I'm not so much in love with the swatches from the sets so far. However, I fell in love with Moonlight Night and The Family Crest!
Do you think MN will look good on green eyes?
