I've decided to get the blue, even if I never use it!
Flaunting It or Scandelicious
Love Peck
Peacocky
Strut Your Stuff
Super
Temper Tantrum
I am debating about the Peacocky Lipcolor. I am really liking it as per Temptalias review. I am debating if I would ever really use it. What do you think? I am an NW45.

I just posted swatches in the swatch forum with the eyeshadow colors and some comparisons. I'm nc45 for reference.

I picked up Odalisque, Specatacle of Yourself, and Noir Plum. I might go back for Ego, it's really nice.

That's the one I'm debating too. I don't know that Forest Green is an acurate description - it seemed more green/teal in person. I really did like it though.

I got Spectacle of Yourself and Tweet Me. Tweet Me was a pleasant surprise. I thought it might look ashy on my skin but it was gorgeous warm peach that caught different colors in the light. WOC do try that one.

OK I am NC45/C7 and I got
shadows-Top of the Posh, Odalisque, Paparazz-she

not from the collection ---Prep and Prime finishing powder

I can't wait to wear these shadows on eyes. I swatched on my hand and they looked so good. Was hard to just get 3. Would have gotten more if they would fit it my palettes

I'm nw47, I picked up peacocky, paparazz-she, odalisque, and noir plum. I think I'll go back tomorrow for another peacocky. I loved ALL the lipcolors but I didn't feel like any of them were MUST haves.

I went back to the store and swatched Tweet Me, it is indeed very pretty !!!!!!!!! I didnt pick it up cuz im still debating, I might go back and pick it up later if it is still there. The MA did say that is was very close to melon pigment

Yesterday, I purchased the Exxxhibitionist and Scandelicious Kissable Colors. I was so eager to try out the Peacocky Lipcolor. I tried it and I was not that impressed. It would require that you mix it with another color such as red or pink. Peacocky is not an ideal everyday color, but it more costumey in nature. Think Fashion Runway. Even though, I like the Love Peck and Strut Your Stuff Kissable colors, I passed. I already have too many colors that are similar in color to those two shades. I also purchased the Chickery and Magenta Lipliners yesterday.

I picked up six of the shadows today (Papparazz-she, Dalliance, Dandizette, Ego, Noir Plum, and Mating Call) but I am wondering if I should order Center Stage. It looks so basic, but then I don't know if I own anything like it. I know I don't need Unflappable because I have Smut, but I love Smut, which makes me want Unflappable, which makes no sense. I am surprised to hear so many raves about Sexpectations because it seems so similar to Cranberry. Do those of you who love it, own Cranberry as well? Did anyone buy Prance?

The colors are so pretty, but I couldn't justify so many of them because they are so similar to things I already have. Oh and I think Urban Decay's X might be a dupe for Tweet Me.


ETA: My MUA put Odalisque in my bag instead of Ego, so I swatched it with colors I thought were similar; if you have UD Haight, it is an exact dupe.

I was a little disappointed in this collection. Some of the colors were too similar to items I already have from Illamasqua & Urban Decay as well as perm items that I've been lemming for a while so I ended up purchasing more perm items. I got Flaunting It l/g and Dalliance e/s. I didn't get Love Peck l/g but it's a must if you're short on blood reds or burgundy lippies. (I'm not.) I was surprised at how bad Temper Tantra l/g and Super l/g looked on me. I usually can pull those type of colors off with no problems. And So Vain l/g, Vanity Fair l/g, and Woo Me l/g were hot, chalky messes. I'm not surprised that this collection hasn't done as well as others have predicted. The MUAs were really pushing the Peacocky items, but customers weren't interested.

Ok so I picked up 4 l/g-
1.exxx-hibitionist (coral)
2. peacocky (blue)- not for everyday wear, but its nice when u want to be daring
3. scandelicious (fushia pink)
4. love pecks (burgundy)- reminds me of cunning-which I love

I also got 3 e/s
1. Odalisque- This is very similar to Urban Decay Haight (Teal Blue)
2. Noir Plum (purple)
3. Paparazzshe

Sexpectations reminded me alot of Cranberry also. I did like Ego, may go back n get. I also have to check out Tweet Me and Flaunting it.

I bought Prance, it surprised me that it was just so pretty and I was that taken by it. I do think that it has some kind of similarity to Vex, which I adore, but I just think that it's a standout.

I totally agree with you about UD's X being a dupe for Tweet Me. When I look at Tweet Me I see so many acceptable substitutes, and all have been mentioned on Specktra I'm pretty sure.

Ego is like the Antique Green pigment, that has teal in it, but greener. Forest green, not really.
