Reading this just bummed me out

I'm looking forward to these the most

Thanks for mentioning this! I have Sunsonic, too, so maybe that will save me some $ and not have to get Beachbound

I agree

Can anyone swatch Beachbound and Sunsonic for me? TIA

I don't know where my mind went, but I've been wanting to get Humid from this collection, and I just saw that it's permanent- So that's one thing off my list!

The color is gorgeous, but I can get it later on, and I depot my shadows so I don't need to get it in this special packaging (which I'm already not too fond of!)

Usually when there's a collection with special packaging, I'm all over it! This is the first collection where I'm only purchasing b/c of the products and NOT the packaging! I hate the packaging! Maybe it would have been more interesting if the lippies had seashells all around the packaging instead of just one, irunno lol. But I'm not crazy about it! The only packaging I LOVE are the lip/eye pencils

. One of the eye khols (the green one) are permanent, though, so if I buy it when the collection comes out, it will be only b/c of the packaging otherwise I can just wait!

Does anyone who's seen the collection have a dupe for Lazy Day lipstick - maybe Creme Cup? I love the color, but I feel like I have so many similar shades. Thanks!

I'm not seeing it

Can you post the pic here? The only one I saw is her comparison of Beachbound and Sunsational- not Sunsonic

Opps I am sorry I misread it

It is Sunsational...

Does the colour Flurry of Fun show up on pigmented lips or is it more of just a shimmmer?

Thank you so much, TeresitaMC!
I like her reviews and swatches.

Lazy Days looks so lovely in those swatches

I cannot wait to own this & the pink lip pencil.

I'm getting impatient

 

[VintageAqua]

Does anyone know when it will be up online? I thought the launch was today for some reason.

I'm NC42 and Flurry of Fun looked terrible on me. It almost looked like I had some funny disease on my lips! The blue and green sparkles just don't look right on pigmented lips (and the base colour is so so sheer) unless you plan to use it over a lippie.

I agree! I think Lazy Days and the liner paired together will just be

It looks so good in the tube, but I had a feeling it would be really sheer on my lips.

Thanks so much.!

It will be online on May 25th, right, people?
If it was launched online today, that means I would have already missed Marine Life by now, and I'm going

.
Well hope not.

BTW, I'm still undecided on Marine Life.

Yes it will. It's pretty pigmented.

I'm so happy - I just secured my Marine Life! My MA was just unpacking it when I called her

She said it is really pretty. And, she kinda talked me into the lighter cream bronzer (we'll see) its cream to powder which I love. I love the color of Refined Golden so I don't know yet.

Also, she said the pink lip pencil is beautiful!
