I heard Marine life costs 29 euros (around $37) in Finland. Whaaat?! That price's outrageous! Now it doesn't really matter if they sold out, there's no way I can afford it this month

I need to start posting more FOTD's. I have just been wearing neutral looks lately with no e/s. 
But, I will post one just for you when I get ML! |

I bought my goodies today and so far I'm pleased with them. I got:
- Sand & Sun - lovely color, I hope it will look as lovely on the lid as it did on my hand
- Firecracker - sooo hot and def more orangy than HotHotHot
- Rosemary & Thyme - I'm really into greens at the moment, not just e/s so this comes in handy
- Thrills - so gorgeous!!
- Get-Away Bronze - I was eyeing Hipness but me and the MA both said it's more pink than would be good for me so I got GAB instead, this is the only one I'm unsure about, I mean ... brown blush ??? I haven't tried bronzer before but I think that's how I will use GAB for
I can't wait for tomorrow's play time

I'm calling it Lazy Sunday - I like that better. I've decided that I am going to get 2 because of the special packaging. Its a gorgeous everyday pink ls.
Too bad about Plink!?!?

I got the best bikini at target the other day! it's black with diamonds on it. Damn my boobs for being a 34D but looking super small in bathing suits and no bra days!
I need to get R&T, I don't know why I never picked that bad boy up, I love olive greens & I don't have a liner to go with my olive e/s. It being in special packaging makes me want it now, but I have to wait.

Wow.. this collections sells out like crazy here in Germany!
Maybe because of the bad weather?
This morning I first went to the Counter only to be told that the release is tomorrow but luckily the Pro Store started to sell today.
Maybe the counter started to sell later in the day as well after they heard how fast it sells out.
I love, love, love this collection!
This is the first collection in a very long while where I hauled a lot from here and I am happy with everything I bought.
The first product that caught my eye was Marine Life.. of course.
Now it already is sold out online here like a lot of the other products at the counters and stores.
Oh my.. Marine Life is breathtaking! I don't want to use it though because I don't want to hurt it.
So I'd love to get a backup but sadly.. or luckily it is sold out.
Such a stunning coral. I can't see the highlight in this powder. To me it is just a fab blush.
I just looked very quickly at the Lipglasses because they were just
to me. The pink (can't remember the name) looked nice but not that special. The others were very sparkly.. very very sparkly which is nice for summer but I also didn't care much for them.
I got Rosemary & Thyme because I forgot it was perm but it's ok because I love the packaging.
Float On By looked nice as well but I like Undercurrent more. But I would prefer the blue kohl for the waterline because I don't think my eyeballs would be amused about the glitter in Undercurrent. Because I rarely wear liner on my waterline I skipped it, though.
The lipsticks looked nice as well but the store hasn't gotten the shipment for Beachbound l/s yet. Thrills was on my list but I skipped it to get Marine Life.
Hipness is so pretty. Of course I got it as well. I can't skip a coral blush.
I already have Shimmermoss and Humid has to wait until I will get it as a refill but I bought Sweet & Punchy and Firecracker. So pretty in person.. I just couldn't say no.
I also bought Lucky Green as a refill and I can't wait to wear it with Sweet & Punchy. Now thinking about this look.. I do regret not getting Humid, though.
(Or maybe I should get Bottle Green to have a matte outer V color *thinks*)
I haven't looked at the Bronzers, Creme Bronzers or the bronzey blush. The Lustre Drops didn't caught my eye this time too.
The In The Buff n/l looks fun! Like a light avocado meets sand/beach color. I bought it because I don't have anything like it and I just ordered Scorcher as well because it is selling out like crazy too and I don't want to miss out.
It reminds me of China Glaze's High Hopes (HH could be a bit lighter than Scorcher) though so I need to compare them when the order arrives.

Yes, I thought it might look kinda orange on me since I am more on the cool-toned side.
Sweet and Punchy looks more yellow than the Too faced lucky charms duo so I am getting it. Fire-cracker is a skip for me, I just don't like wearing pinks on the eyes and don't like how it looks on the eye on temptalias site.
I love how Marine life looks coral-red.
I can't wait for Funbathing!! It looks so sexy and unique. Beachbound is a skip since it's a glaze so the color pay-off is poor and it just seems to just give off frost. I allready have lipsticks like that.
Still not sure about Float-on-by since people are saying it smudges.
My list is confirmed I think:
FunBathing l/s
Marine Life powder
Sweet & Punchy e/s
Float on by e/l
Only 4 things but I am very excited for them.
I don't want to hoard makeup and be on the "I am a hoarder, help me!" show.

I am sure this was mentioned before does Hipness look anything like Joyous BPB?
If it does I will pass...but, crap, I love me some coral cheeks!
I did pre-order FOB, but Undercurrent seems to look a lot better. So I might nix that off my pre-order list.
I did also pre-order GAB but I have a zillion bronzers/blush colors...so that one might get nixed as well.
The bronzing oil looks amazing but I do have Skin Shimmer from awhile back. So I probably don't need the oil.
I am also loving how In the Buff looks. It does kinda remind me of split pea soup color, but it'll look good on tanned olive skin!

Ok, so I've received my TTB goodies 2 weeks ago and I’ve had more than enough time to test them properly.
I'm a bit surprised that cream bronzers aren't a bigger hit. To me, Beach Bronze is definitely neither too dark nor glittery. It actually appears much darker in the pot and is really, really sheer once applied (I'm probably between NW/NC 15-20 right now and if I apply one layer with a brush, I can hardly detect any colour). It melts with the skin instantly, blends effortlessly leaving a golden glow. When I hear ‘glitter’, I think of Superglass or the middle stripe/crescent in recent MES. In BB, however, there is shimmer, a lot of golden shimmer. If one prefers a more matte bronzer this one is definitely not what you’re looking for.
I've even put some bronzer on my neck, shoulders and down to my neckline and the effect was lovely. What I need/want during the summer is a multitasker and in my opinion Beach bronze is exactly that. I can imagine using it on my face and then adding some to the décolletage in the evening for that extra oomph
.
I also couldn't resist the temptation and ordered Float on By despite the possible smudging factor- I promise to swatch it next to MUFE L12 once I receive it.

The bathing suit sounds really hot - yeahhhh, especially on YOU!
I guess I understand, I lost more weight so I'm like a 0 -2 but I still have 36D - but with a little less air in the them
maybe they need filled up with some soy beans (thats what the guys call it when ya get enlargements)
I may have to take a trip this weekend to see this collection in person. I really wanted to buy it now.

The MA raved about the cream bronzer as well. How easy it is to apply and how natural it looks (and how nice the finish is when it dries) but I rarely use bronzer so I haven't really looked at it.

Boy, you ladies have been chatty today
I am going back and forth on Float on By still. Everytime it's mentioned, it's followed by the word smudgy. I think I will pass and *possibly* include Sand and Sun e/s instead. Sweet and Punchy, Firecracker, Easy Lounger and Flurry of Fun are non-negotiable though. I am so excited for them!
