I just posted a review of the collection on my blog, but I'll put some comments here as well. Sorry if there's too much info!

From left to right, Mulled Cider, Modelette, and Chamomile[/FONT]
[FONT="]
Mulled Cider is a satin, although it looks and feels more like a matte. Although I liked the warm brown-ness (I wanted to write brownie-ness there, but that would be whole other connotations!), I felt it was easily dupable. A Little Folie was pretty close, although it had a touch more plum to it. [/FONT]

[FONT="]Modelette is a pretty tan or light brown that I see being really useful in daytime neutrals. It is not super pigmented, so needs some work to build up color.
[/FONT]
[FONT="]Chamomile is a surprising winner. Again, it is a satin, and has a nice smooth feel. It is also pretty pigmented - more so that Modelette actually.

Siss and Warm Me Up
[/FONT]
[FONT="]From the lip side, I picked up 3 glosses - 2N, 3N, and Feeling Dreamy, and 2 lipsticks - Siss, and Warm Me Up.
[/FONT]
[FONT="]Warm Me Up is an Amplified finish, and a pretty rose pink color. I love it. It is a great neutral pink. Siss is a mid-brown or tan glaze. I think Siss is pretty much the same color as Modelette eye shadow. It also is suprisingly cool-toned on my face, and doesn't do anything for me at all.

Siss, Warm Me Up
[/FONT]
[FONT="]From l-r: 2N, Feeling Dreamy, 3N
[/FONT]
[FONT="]2N is a warm, creamy neutral beige. It is a pretty color, very wearable, and there is no shimmer.
[/FONT]
[FONT="]3N is a gorgeous, warm, browny color, with a hint of shimmer. I loved this color, and could definitely see me wearing this on a regular basis, especially at work.
[/FONT]
[FONT="]Feeling Dreamy is very similar with 2N, but with a hint of shimmer. Weirdly, I usually don't like shimmery glosses, but preferred Feeling Dreamy to 2N. I felt like the shimmer added a bit of a kick to it.

[FONT="] I also didn't pick up the shadesticks, because I have no idea how they would fit into my collection, but I'm now debating picking up Nurture which is a pink champagne. Plus, I skipped the blushes, because they looked supershimmery, which isn't really my thing.[/FONT]
