No, I didn't get an e-mail either, but then I only have one Viva Glam (Cindy) l/s. I'm not that fussed, it's not super limited edition anyway, is it? Not much point in that.

Yeah, I want most of the ED eyeshadows. If they're anything like the Tesco ones, they're gonna be great. I love the Tesco ones, but there's only 6 colours and mostly neutrals, so I'm hoping for more oophm with the ED ones.

I also like the look of the Too Supreme l/g. But Lou says that's April, so phew.

I didn't get any pre-order e-mails from Mac, so they must have sent it to people who purchased Viva Glam items online?

I'll be happily skipping most of the March collections. Only 2 lippies from Shop, Cook and 1 lippie + lg from Chen Man. In April, on the other hand, I'll be getting most eyeshadows from Extra Dimension. God, I'm such a sucker for cool new eyeshadow finishes!

I just took another look at the Nicki email, and it says that the collection goes live on 1st March, so there's not long to wait anyway, and I believe it's supposed to be available for a year?

That confirms that Nicki is indeed one of the 9

I also have Cindy, although I don't remember where I bought that one, LOL.
Yeah, I'm not in a hurry to get Nicki before I've actually swatched it.
There are a lot of purples/violets in ED!

Luckily I only want one thing from the Too Supreme collection, as I'm skipping the glosses completely. Shop Cook and Vera will be getting most of my money, and maybe a couple of lip liners from TdF

I went to Boots in Kingston and managed to buy the 17 palettes and nail polishes, they're all so pretty! I also got a couple of Revlon polishes, one is like the Facets of Puchsia one, but in pink, and a Jessica polish that is a Chanel Peridot dupe. :) So much for not spending much money on make up. Oh well, they weren't exactly expensive.

I went to Selfridges today and picked up the Chanel Lucky Stripes powder and the gold lipstick. I wasn't even wanting the lipstick, but got talked into it. The powder is really pretty, not sure I'll be able to use it for now, but it will look better on in the summer anyway as I'm more of a pinky beige colour right now.

Checked out Shop, cook and I still don't want much from it. They only had 3 lipsticks out: Innocence beware, Watch me simmer and Naughty saute and to be honest, I don't even know if I want any of them. NS seems a bit too light and WMS seems very orange. Although when I went outside and had a look at the swatches on my hand, they looked better, but still very bright. I bought all3 bright Iris Apfel lipsticks, not sure if I need more right now. Will have a think. The rest doesn't interest me at all. Can't wait for Vera though. :)

I also finally made it to the Boots in Westfield that stocks Stila and had a good swatching session. Ended up getting 3 smudge sticks and a glitter eyeliner. I will order one mroe though from the Stila website as I wasn't sure if I had that already or not, but turns out I didn't.

Hope you like your new Chanel goodies! I've decided to skip the collection and all the MAC releases next month!

Wow, that's some willpower you have there! :) I think I've managed to cut my list to quite a managable amount seeing that 9 collections are coming out this week. I think I might only get Quick Sizzle l/s from Shop, cook, and Inez l/s from Marcel Wanders, maybe Comfort & Joy from Tour de Fabulous (apparently it's very similar to Karin l/g from MW), Pink Union mes and Force of Love l/s from Chen Man, and maybe Nicky l/s. The only thing I'm getting lots of stuff from is Vera, but I really want the pigments and the powders. Okay, I know that still seems a lot, but it's basically only 1-2 things from each collection (except for Vera).

Hope you like your new Chanel goodies! I've decided to skip the collection and all the MAC releases next month!

Still can't believe MAC are releasing 9 collections next month! I think that's the reason I don't want to get anything anymore, that and because I have way too much makeup and absolutely no more storage space! I think the only brand that will tempt me is Guerlain but we've got a few months till the summer collection is out :)

9 is just crazy!! I won't be getting anything from the MAC LE collections, I am limiting myself just to stocking up on basics for the time being.
I do love the look of the new Laura Mercier Portfolio Animation collection that will be coming out though, it has a pretty kickass makeup organiser that is making me drool...
