I looked at the swatches & can definitely tell there is a difference. And I just love how it looks on the model. We'll see when I get it.

I LOVE Specktra. Even when sales people/MUA's tell us we don't need something we get it anyway because we know we'll be able to tell the difference (even if they can't)!

My order arrived today. I just got 3 things from this particular collection - Saffron, Mehr and Siahi.

Saffron is a lovely colour, but swatched on my hand I found it a bit sheer and I had to apply more to get the colour payoff - it would probably work better with a base.. Siahi definitely looks very teal on me, and it blends out nicely and would make a good base (not for Saffron of course) . Despite reports of people saying Mehr looked brown, I find it to be more of a rosey pink, and it looks great on. I can see this being one of my 'go to' colours.

Overall, I'm very pleased with my haul.

Thanks for the review rockin. I'm especially pleased that Saffron is a bit sheer. I was worried the colour payoff would be too much for such a bright colour. Mine has shipped and should be here soon.

Welcome Calla88.

Thanks for the blog postings Niftyness. I'm resisting the urge to run off and order Mehr and Gulabi right this moment.

siahi is stunning! it arrived this morning and i am very happy with it! i actually found it quite pigmented when i used my 209 brush with it (yes i took it to work to test it out!) oomph is very pretty too and i know i will be using it alot for green smokey eyes. and i think greengrease gps will be the perfect base for it. :)

I got Siahi fluidline, Dalliance and Top of the Posh (both from Peacocky). Love this purchase!

I went to Toronto Eaton Centre at 10 am. There were only 5 customers there and we headed straight to the MC section. I'm kind of happy they didn't do holds at the store. It was first come, first serve.

My Mehr order shipped! Yay!! I'll have it tomorrow. I'm relieved, I thought they would cancel my order.

Question because Siahi is my first fluidline: do they work on the waterline alone? Do I need a similar colored eyeliner to go with it?
Click to expand...
I used to do Fluidlines on my waterline but I started using pencil but they held up fine to me. If I remember correctly Mac doesn't suggest f/l on your waterline only because they didn't test it that way.

If Siahi isn't waiting at home for me today, I am going to have a tizzy.
