Not interested in part 2 I hate tartan print I much rather have last years bubble package over tartan although tartan is more of christmas pattern. I look forward to the colour story and picking up a few things but other than that nothing is striking my fancy.

I guess I'm in the minority... but I'm really disappointed by the bags for the brush sets. It's just a bit too much with the clashing plaids, the black patch and the studs. I wish they had just done the two patterns and left off that bottom corner. I do love the palettes though! Although the colors looks near identical to last year's, I'll still be picking up a couple eye shadow sets.

WOW!!! I woke up to pics. This has made my day!!! I definitely want both brush sets, the kit with the mineralize eyeshadow, and the kit with the pigment have caught my eye.

Blimey! I'm an idiot! Of course that's why they're not there. Thanks for setting my head straight. So I can go ahead and not feel let down. I can also say that the cool eye palette and the cool pigment set are calling to me across the highland hills.

Is it just me or are the brushes that are included in the plaid set the same exact brushes that were included in last years holiday brush sets. I looked it up and they seemed to be the same.

Yay some pics of the sets. This will be my first year buying from the holiday collection. I find it kind of strange that they release it in Oct instead of Dec. My VV list seems to be getting cut down so I'll def be getting a lot from this collection.
I'm going to try and stay away from lippies but that cool gloss set isnt helping! Guess it depends on what colors there are in the set. And that dazzleglass we saw from the other pics. I just cant resist my glosses and lipsticks...damn But I'm def getting the cool pigment set. Pigments are my weakness too! Will it ever end! lol

I feel the same! But, I usually don't like the spring or summer collections very much (only bought from one this year), so after cham-pale, I'll probably have a bit of lull where I can save or buy something else.

Well, I was looking at the pictures again, and got a silly question. I don't know the name, but does the metallic tube part of the SE brushes and the lipsticks appear to be gold on everyone's monitor? Or am I just being silly again?

I really like this packaging. It's just how my fav ma described it. The top part of the brush bags looks just like my daughters old school uniforms. It reminds me of her going off in her startched white oxford shirt, cute plaid skirt, blazer and knee socks.

I also can't wait to see pics of the Kids Helping Kids. My ma told me a couple months ago that there will be two little bears this year wearing plaid. One is tiny like to hook on your bag. I usually buy the cards and they never get used so this will be great. I sure hope he was right.

still the same. nothing from this collection aside from the killer pigments in the colour collection. the purple shadow palette is interesting, but i doubt it'll be much different from last years sorceress palette.

Yeah I'm glad to see photos but nothing is really jumping out at me still

I agree with Erine I like that purple palette but I want to see how close it is to Sorceress first. The pigments (individual ones) look really awesome still but other than that nada from me yet!
