I saw Chanel Noirs Obscurs collection today and came back with the eye quad.

I liked the colours immediately when I swatched them. They have ultra fine shimmers throughout. I can't wait to wear the quad over the black grease p/s.

I tried on Maniac l/s and the lipgloss on my lips. The lipgloss is sheer black with very fine red glitters. All the three l/s apply smooth and creamy and the finish is luminous. I like Maniac but I will not wear such dark lips anywhere very often so I passed.

Now I'm very excited and can't wait to see the MES from Style Black!

ok guys, here's my review of this collection copied and pasted from my blog. Sorry I didn't post it yesterday I was just so exhausted.

Lipsticks: Black Knight is not as black as you would think, it's more like a black-ish gray (at least on my lips). It's also a Creamsheen formula so it's kinda slippery. The two mattenes are ah-may-ziiiiing!!! I so wanted to buy both! I ended up only getting Night Violet which is a more purple version of Kirsch released last year. I love this kinda dark lipsticks. Midnight Media is a true black. If you want black lips I would say get Midnight Media over Black Knight

Glimmerglasses: These really surprised me. I was totally going to skip them but Black Fire was so hot over Night Violet that I had to have it. Bling Black looks more green-gold than true gold with black base so i skipped it. Blackware is black but not very opaque. In general all of these are kinda sheer and are best paired with lipsticks. I had one set of B2M with me so I B2M'd for Black Fire.

MES: These are the star of Style Black IMO. All three are gorgeous and that's saying a lot as I hate MES in general. I wanted to buy all for but for now I only got Young Punk which is a gorgeous black base with purple/pink glitters. I will be picking up Cinderfella (black base with silver glitters, yumm), this Thursday.

CCB's: This are gorgeous black bases but I hear that CCB's crease a lot. They're not must haves for me but they swatch beautifully.

Grease Paintstick: Ok, so the pro store I went to had already sold out of this

So I didn't get to play with it. I need to see it this Thursday.

Nail Lacquers: I did not play with these as I'm not a fan of MAC nailpolishes, but if you are make sure to check out Baby Goth Girl. Seriously gorgeous polish!

Face Products: again a skip for me as I don't like LE skin care.

In general, this was the best collection MAC has come out with for a long time. I'm really impressed and cannot wait to play with everything again this Thursday.

I'm gonna post some swatches in the Swatch section as well. Happy hauling everyone

Thanks so much for the review. I'm going in next week to pick up Hysteria lippie and will check out the quad as well.

Again thanks for another review of the collection. PSA for those who live close to a CCO: Both of the CCOs I frequent had Night Violet.

Gah! The more I hear about these MES, the more I want them. Seriously obsessed here. Today is a major depotting day for this reason. I may end up B2M for one of the l/g as well. I think in terms of quality, this collection will be my CoC-esque equivalent in terms of what I pick up. Between this collection and the Chanel Noir collection, I'm going to need a serious hiatus from hauling after this. My wallet will be smoking.

You're gonna have fun with Night Violet, I can see it. =) I love that you mentioned the skin care because madam Tish must have been on to something about that exfoliator because damn, if they're not sold out. I only bought 2 and she only bought 3 so other people snagged them up....but I got my order completed so I'm fine. <-- I love this perverted little guy.

well Blue Flame didn't have as much blue in it as I had hoped. Between the 4, Young Punk was my favourite eventhough blue is my favourite colour. I'm gonna give it another chance this week. I'm torn between Cinderfella and Blue Flame.

My skin is sensitive so I don't like LE products. I don't want to get my skin used to something and then take it away if you know what I mean

so more for you and Tish

i'm buying blue flame! that's my number 1 choice out of the mes. young punk is a close second though. the gold and silver are nice but think i can easily dupe those babies.

 

[SMMY]

I have DuWop's Payoff shadow intensifier, which converts powder eye shadows and pigments to a more creamy consistency (making it less messy to apply) and a more intense color payoff. It both brings out the shimmer and intensifies the color payoff of the shadow, hence the name. If Payoff can't get more bang out of the blue in Blue Flame, nothing will. Awesome, awesome product.
