What's the difference?

Oh! I didn't realise that. I'll probably have to apply one side of my cheek with the BP, the other with blooming to see the difference.

I think that i'm mostly going to skip this collection. The es don't interest me, the beauty powder looks so light for me. I might look at the lipstick and the gloss but thats it

.....I hope

Meryl, could you remind me again of your skintone? I may just skip it if it doesn't really show up. How are you liking the other things you got?

 

[xoshopaholicxo]

I'm skipping all the collections until Manish. Nothing is really a must have for me:[ I was thinking about the lipstick & l/g but decided it's probably too light for me. I'm going to mac today, so we'll see what i come home w/.

The Beauty Powder is pretty, but it seems like something I would never use. It's too close to my Benefit Dandelion which is really pigmented and smells yummy. So I don't think that I would reach for the BP much when I have the Dandelion already. As far as the Mineral...I'm pretty sure Mystery would be a good dupe because it's a cool almost plummy brown. So it's not worth it. But I AM getting the Lilac Touch, Soft Flower, Pure Rose, Pastel Emotion, and the Not So Shy lippies. So I've stayed hopeful...but for those who have seen the collection in the US IN PERSON.... We're pretty sure there's no paint pot huh?

Okay I responded last night but it didn't go through. Sorry, no paint pot..

Seriously, this is driving me crazy....waiting.....waiting.....

It feels like this is the Twilight Zone & we're never going to get it

Wow, I love the look of that lip stain & gloss

Mineral es kinda reminds me of a matte Botanical - which I love. hmmm

me loves Ungaro & rbella

Its like the longer I wait the less and less I want- Im seriously only getting pastel emotion from this collection. I thought I'd get like the whole damn thing but since we found out there was no paint pot ive been on a downward spiral

funny thing is--- i didnt want ANYTHING from manish but now i want 4 things. Weird.

 

[nursee81]

does anyone know what happened to the PP why aren't they realsing it?

I feel the same way. I think just Pure Rose (b2m) and Pastel Emotion for me too. I wanted a bunch more, but with the more time that goes by, the more I realize I don't need another purple e/s or a coral one that I won't wear enough to warrant spending the money on. I have a TON of blushes and MSFs so I am skipping the BP, and I am afraid the CCBs will break me out. Good for my wallet though

[AdlersMommy22]

^haha heard.. I keep talking myself out of it- which is DEF good for my wallet as well- after this last haul (mostly a bunch of perm items- since im trying to catch up on the perm collection as well)... my wallet keeps climbing into bed at night and smacking me across the face "stop spending money, bitch!"

 

[rbella]

***Currently shunning Audrey***

Totally kidding. But seriously, just because it is taking a bit longer to launch, why all the hate? If anything, we should be getting more and more excited!!!!!!!

I can't wait!! I refuse to let this get me down. I refuse.

***I love you, elegant. Hang in there, we will get our goodies***

***I still love you, Audrey. Even if you are an Ungaro traitor.***

Actually, I felt that way with Suite Array. I only bought one pencil - Molasses - that's it! I was wondering if all of us will get to the point where there aren't any more different colors to even buy

Is that possible

LOL... Mine just tries to get lost in my purse when I am at the store... It's a good game of wallet hide and seek...

For the love of all things pure and sacred I hope not!

Nothing from Suite Array impressed me either. My MAC has their Red She Said release party next week and I'm really looking forward to that. My first holiday release party yay! And Manish Amora...I think it's just Pink Manish and the eye palette for me...most just for Going Bananas and Playful.

 

[rbella]

I'm so pathetic, I bought 4 liners from Suite Array and I don't even know if I really want them. I had just gone so damn long without electricity that when it came back on I was drunk with power. I ordered a butt load of stuff from different places.

 

[AdlersMommy22]

^Those liners were WELL worth it.. dont feel bad! Im so in love with fly by flu and black russian that im thinking of buying backups soon.. they are SO gorgeous!

Are you sure it was power you were drunk with?

I am still excited for...I will forgive the lack of paint pot, for now. That ONE, MAC! I'm still definitely getting the Pure Rose l/s and Pastel Emotion l/g. I'll also get the brown and purple shadows...and probably the coral, but I'm still not sure about that one.
