I am sooo excited! I loved Woo Me and Enchantee in the kissable lipcolor line from Peacocky and I didn't get enough of them! They are a nice subtle pink and great nudes. :)

-Thanks for the colour story! Finally! :) yep...I'm screwed. The only thing I know I'll pass on is the kissables. I have Enchantee and never wear it. I tried, it just does this weird thing on my lips. PC was all about the shadows for me.
-Dunno bout the fluidlines either. I was hoping theyd be more unique, but never really know until swatches.
-Wonder how Quick Sizzle (bright matte pink) l/s compares to Pink Pigeon.
-Watch Me Simmer l/s (bright pink orange) sounds like it could be awesome. I got to be careful with picking lipsticks though, I need to ease up on those.
-Quads sound promising. Shop Drop sounds awesome!The Colour Added quad sounds good minus the yellow shadows. Yellows on my eyes makes me look sick. So I'll prob have to pass on that one.

-What are the cremeblends like? I'm scared I wouldnt know how to apply them vs. powder blushes.

They're a really nice cream blush, actually. Very quick and easy to apply. I just dab them on with my fingers and smooth them out.

Thanks for those swatches. Dish It Up Looks like every other blued midtone pink I have (I have them in multiple, believe dat) so yeah, I am actually happy for a skip. More cash for klssables, tender tones and quad. I think this collection is going to be about stuff other than the lippies. I am glad to see its so large and so many products!

By the time it rolls out, I am thinking I will be over the bright lippies having got my fill from IA and into different lip products

Can anyone say more about the Brash e/s from the previous Spiced Chocolate quad? Why is it loved? Since I am on the fence about the quad, it could enable me to commit...


I researched online that Brash looks like the offspring of Coppering and Amber Lights. Not sure if that's true because I've never seen it, but I can't wait to find out!
The spiced chocolate quad was so pupular that it makes me wonder how well loved brash was? Any one with the quad have any thoughts?

I don't know if Brash itself was such a big deal, or if it was just that people really liked the Spiced Chocolate Quad. It's a copper shade, a little bit pinker than Amber Lights and not as bright or red as Coppering. I do find it looks really nice against blue eyes- makes them pop!

It's really awesome for blue eyes.

Just another opinion for you but!! When cream blend blushes got made permanent I purchased all 6 in a pallette... I felt they dried out due to the no air seal situation do I swapped them for individuals... It turned our that wasn't the issue... They ate so so dry I'm. Not a fan at all!!!!
i think nars cream blush are way better.... A Mu said to me that the are a combo of Ccb and cream blush.

This could save me some cash. I like cream blush in theory, but don't have any other than a Guerlain pot or 2. I really should try the NARS cream blush. Although the bright MAC blushes can also be used on eyelips and lips. ( I guess the NARS can too)... I am holding out for MAC to put out some push up sticks like the MAC ones from Surf Baby we didn't get (or like NARS multiples)

My Lillyland ones haven't dried out yet. I never used my fingers in them, though. I also always like to apply them best with a 190, which is stiff enough that maybe it's ripping straight through any dry skin that's on the top of blush. That's my favorite brush for them - i just pat it on, do some initial blending with it, then do more blending with the warmth from my fingertips if i need extra. They're definitely not as emollient as CCBs, but that's why I prefer them - gives a much softer finish on me.

I second what Martiangirl said. Looking forward to a full report. I'm super psyched about the lipsticks (of course). I really should stop buying since I have no room for anymore, but... I can't help it. I love lipsticks and all the pretty colors & finishes. Quote:
im hopefully seeing the whole collection next sunday!!!
