Oh, good to know. Although I think I will give Feline a try.

I've never had a problem with the Queen St store. It is Queen St after all. Very cool and easy going.

I just bought Too Faced Foil Liners (as recommended by specktra's own lovely Lara) in Bronze Bombshell & Black Beauty...those suckers do not move & I wore them in extreme heat all day. The only down side, you're not supposed to use them in the waterline

sigh I just bought two of them and tried one. I wish I ha read this first. I hate returning things that they just throw away. I woul rather have the eyeshadows

 

[AudreyNicole]

Just called my MA and had her hold my order:
Smoke and Diamonds
Lotusland (still on the fence, have to see it in person)
Top Hat
Talent Pool

Yeah, and remember how I said I was passing on these...I obviously have NO willpower

they dont throw them away they use them as testers if u return them .. at least thats what i was told

 

[xoleaxo]

has anyone compared:

bold & brazen with antiqued and coppering
grand entrance with all that glitters
go with bronze and romp

i checked the swatch thread and i'm not sure if it's already been mentioned here on previous pages..

Woo! No fair!

I guess I'll just keep checking the sites..

hurry up and WAIT!!! UGHHH

 

[MACForME]

FYI-
Nordstrom.com has the collection promo pics up, for BOTH Lustre Twins AND Starflash.. but they are *not* clickable....YET.

bunch'a teases..

 

[newagetomatoz]

I feel really okay about more or less passing on this collection. Mink & Sable is close enough to Sumtuous Olive for me and the rest really don't scream "BUY ME!!" Well, maybe Smoke & Diamonds

But I'm trying to pass on it for the most part so I can maybe get one or two things from CoC without feeling guilty about spending money I should be saving. lol

I just wanted to buy three e/s and one kohl power liner as I bought so much in July and Starflash will be released with Colour Forms here - but I guess I will add Top Hat as a fourth e/s to my list

And now no more recommendations, please

Same for me. I keep adding and dropping from my list. I too will not be buying anything (after this) until the next round of MES come out. I'm kind of new to mac so I only have family silver and earthly riches (which I found at the cco) from the list of the repromote MES coming up in October. I know I'll want all the others.

So far from Starflash I'm going to definitely get:
Orpheus Kohl
Smoke and Diamonds
Grand Entrance
Go
Talent Pool

I honestly want all the shadows except for Star By Night and Sunset B though. This is so tough and I know I'll end up just getting them all at some point since I'm not getting anything from the other upcoming collections. I did some damage earlier this month already with Electroflash though.

 

[Susanne]

Now I am getting to be excited for this collection as well

 

[panther27]

I have all of the kohl powers coming out with this collection,and they are beautiful!My fave is Feline,but they also smudge a lot on me,being kohl liners.

[panther27]

[MzFit]

Ok so really going to try to be good here I must have all the liners them smoke and diamonds, top hat, grand entrance and maybe one more once I see them in person.
