I'm looking forward to a few items (good to see some different lip gloss options this year, and a duo fiber brush set!)
But..
I wish they'd stop putting black eyeshadow in all the shadow palettes! all 4 this year have some version of a black shadow, as well as every other holiday palette I already own, and I never use them. And I was surprised to see they are going with crushed metal pigments as opposed to the traditional kind, I don;t see these selling nearly as much, seems like everyone says the same thing, they look beautiful but they are so much messier & harder to apply
LOL. yeah, the repromotion of Carbon in every other palette seems to be a ubiquitous annoyance for Specktra peeps

Lou, Iceparade (snowglobes) and Glitter & Ice (MES, BP, etc..) will be released together. Dazzlesphere comes later. Not that it matters, but I believe you merged the wrong threads....
darn it! well never mind. I guess we can discuss the palettes and mini things here anyway which will be away from the main colour collection. I have so much info today my head is exploding! lol!

No worries, it gets mixed up anyway and people who are interested will read both threads anyway...
i am hoping so

The Illegal Cargo in the new palette is NOT like the old one (and I am still disappointed over how bad the latest release of Lightscapade was).This new one reminds me more of maybe a darker version of Shale e/s? Though most of the other colors in that set make it worth buying. The highlighter reminds me of transparent teal glitter made into an eyeshadow. Its a frosty white with the teal duochrome effect. The all white fiber brush set is what my heart is set on. Even though I have been working there every weekend I am still going in to the unveiling (Oct 18th for the MAC Indpls store) during the week to pre-order that for sure. Check your local MAC, there might be a glossy 8 page catalog showing all the sets and colors to start pre-ordering for those who cannot make the unveiling event.

I might get the Coral Lip Set since Phiff! is a gorgeous dazzleglass! I might also get the Pink Lip Set as well.

I've never had trouble with creasing with them, but I did find the Surf Baby ones didn't apply well wet - they'd eventually get all crumbly, as I think they have an oily binder which doesn't play well with water. I've had good luck with them over Vibrancy Eye primer or just really well moisturized eyes, but I let those sink in super well first. The best effects I've gotten with them are over Big Bounce shadows (which also keeps them from fading better than anything else - they last great over those), as well as on top of standard powder shadows - you can get some really lovely 2-tone effects this way, since they're rather sheer on their own. Just look for my ravings about them in the Surf Baby and Big Bounce threads. I love them, but you have to expect some sheerness. Look for a base that's got somewhat of a texture like Big Bounce - something that forms a second skin over your eyelids but still has a bit of grit in the mix for something for the pigment to "grab" onto. I guess this is why using them over powder shadow is good too. Anything too smooth or oily and they just slide off.yeah crushed metal pigments are tricky. i find no matter what primer i use they fade and crease on me

Things I'm interested in is the Cool palette and the Pink dazzleglass set. Maybe the coral one as well. I already have two crushed metal stacks I dont need any more.
The brush sets I'm still debating on. I'm trying to just get the full sized ones as some of the ones from the sets I have are kinda scratchy on my sensitive eyes. Does the glitter in the brush handles move or is it solid?
