I usually go hog wild on the Mineralize Collection as it is my favorite but maybe I can exercise some restraint this time. So many of the colors look familiar. On the other side, it looks like it easier to pick out colors in the MES than previous releases. Cha Cha Cha looks like a previous color but it wasn't always easy to get to that green so I may just get it for ease of use.

For sure list:
-159 brush
-all new MSFs - can't resist them

Probably list:
-probably all MBs even though they look familiar too.
-Chic Couple MB looks very much like Exotic Ember MB but Chic Couple looks a lot more glittery. I will probably get it.
-Simmer MB puts me in mind of last summer's Ring of Saturn except Simmer lighter color looks more gold and Ring of Saturn's lighter color looks more peachy.
-Sweet Samba - I can't think of a similar combo of hot pink and bronze but it looks like the hot pink would dominate the color. I'm curious how a hot pink blends with a bronze color.
-Fever Isle Creme sheen - I'm not much of a red gloss lover but I have been loving these colors in the summer so maybe this one will work as well.

MES will just have to wait. I like many of them but I don't know it they are have-to-have-it colors. Narcissus I already have and like but I don't know if I need a back up. I don't use it that much. I love Glamour Era in fact I wore it today well really yesterday. But it's perm so no need for another now. I love Orpheus but I already bought a backup recently. I'm surprised it is repromoted so soon. They should just make it perm.

I may just get off easy this time. Time will tell. I like the collection but not as much as Heavenly Creatures where I went hog wild with backups and all. The way the products look, I don't think vein or swirl hunting will be necessary although I think some products may have more of one color than another. I guess we'll see.

Actually, I have been looking forward to summer so I can wear more of the Heavenly Creatures products. I think a lot of them look better on me in the summer. I don't know if it's my skin tone or the clothing colors I'm wearing or what but it seems that way. I have been using more of the lip products lately but I've worn the MSFs the most throughout the year.

I have been thinking about the Hibiscus Kiss from Rihanna and if they might be similar (prob not). From the looks of Simmer Ring of Saturn comes to mind, so probably an easy skip. Exotic Ember looks interesting, but I would prefer to swatch that one first. Sweet Samba looks like it could be very nice, but hopefully I can swatch before I decide to buy...

Revised list after seeing those lovely pictures:

159 brush x2. I'm probably most excited for this!
Lust, Rio, and Adored MSF.
Tropical Isle CSG
Heroine, Ablaze l/l
Midnight mambo l/s, ONLY if I can't get my hands on FMP

I'm curious as to how bossa blue MES will swatch. I think that my be my only MES depending on the swatch.

Simmer MB reminds me of Ring of Saturn MB from last year for some reason. I'm interested in Exotic Ember MB since it looks like something that I don't own. Will have to see swatches of the MB before I decide.

Short list for me......... Midnight mambo, heroine l/l, and adored! I missed out on heroine l/s so I'm hoping MM is purple and not too magenta.

T never rates them high because they do not perform well on her. Not everyone likes them-sort of like pigments but for many they work great.

very true, I think ill give one of them a try. You can't really know how you feel about a product until you actually try it out * shrugs*

My list keeps changing. I definitely want Fever Isle and Narcissus (BU). I might get Midnight Mambo to try the formula. Maybe one or two MB (Sweet Samba and Simmer) and MSF (Adored and Rio). I think I might skip the MES this time.
