If it were ME I would say crushed bougainville , though its my only CCB so might want to get others opinions. I like the color for blush. (I'm fairly pale.) I also like it on my lips to add a lil color. That's my only "Must have" from this collection. Freckletone is perm, you bought Pure Rose.
The other CCB is PRETTY but I think its too pale to use as a blush on me and I am not experienced enough to use it as a higlighter (i put it on right on my brow bone though I know its not EYE safe but i figured that was high up enough to be okay? lol)
Maybe I'm not using it right/haven't had enough time to play with it, but the beauty powder (to me) isn't a must have, especially if you have a really light pink blush already... It's great , but if you're on a strict budget...
However if you are like me a total gloss junky Pastel emotion is gorgeous.
In summary (lol)
I'm not returning anything and I will probably fall more in love with the other items as time goes on BUT...If I had been able to get to a store and try all the products out before buying I probably would have come out with...
Crushed B - CCB
Pastel Emotion Lipgloss (Though if you have a dupe then maybe don't need it? I like it lotes though)
and Pure Rose Lipstick (which you already bought)
If that's any help... !

ooh! I got my Ungaro today! It's SO gorgeous!!! <3333333
Too bad it was overshadowed by missing the Manish collection by a few seconds. (I was on early enough to have everything available, but as soon as I clicked to buy everything it was all gone!) I think I'm gonna go eat a bucket full of chocolate ice cream.

I agree with snowflakelashes! If you can swing it, definately Crushed B CCB. For me, it is the only must have from the collection. I got Pure Rose as well, but it was a B2M. While I do really like it, I probably wouldn't have shelled out the $14 for it, if I hadn't had the empties. HTH!

Alright! I got my packaggeeee!!
Pure Rose Lipstick
Pastel Emotion Lipglass
Soft Flower Eyeshadow
Mineral Eyeshadow
Lilac Touch Eyeshadow
Crushed Bougainvillea Cream Colour Base
Flower Mist Dew Beauty Powder
Mink Brow Set
I'm sort of upset though. I depotted the eyeshadows. Soft Flower and Lilac Touch have cracks in them. ;__; I hope they don't shatter... they're safe in a quad so I think they'll be alright. Be careful to those that plan to depot! They must be very soft.
Someone asked me to compare the 3 eyeshadows to the ones in Amazon Eyes quad from Raquel. Right away they look similar (I put the Ungaro ones in a quad). Soft Flower is much brighter than Statuesque. They are both very sheer, but Statuesque is much softer than the other, and is also much more buildable, thanks to the Veluxe texture.
Mineral and Primal look very similar at first glance, but taking a closer look shows the differences. Primal is very warm toned, and only has a subtle satin texture. Mineral is a cool toned, grey-brown, and although being a satin like Primal, it has a more apparent sheen to it. Mineral is sheer but more buildable than Soft Flower. When compared to Primal it is VERY sheer because Primal builds very well.
Lilac Touch looks similar to Roustabout. They are both satins with a soft satin sheen. Roustabout however has much more color payoff. Roustabout is a muted grey-violet, whereas Lilac Touch is a richer looking violet (in the pan), but still has that greyish tone to it.
