I ended up getting only 2 things!
Bat Black CCB

Unfortunately the MES weren't as glittery as I had hoped.
Intense Black wasn't as purple as I had hoped and I figured I could just do the same thing with Blacktrack.
I would have bought Blackware if it weren't for the fact that I have Black Lipmix and Clear Gloss, but I highly suggest this one to anyone who loves looks with red lipsticks. It's an amazing way to get depth with little-no effort.

I am NW 45 and I bought:
Cinderfella MES (don't sleep on this one ladies!!! Amazing smokey eye!)
Blackfire Glimmerglass
Holding off on getting the Greasestick as it is also coming out with the DSquared2 collection with two other colours.
To make the shimmer in the MES more pronounced, mix with Mixing Medium or Fix+

I got my hands on Cinderfella and Night Violet. I might go back for some more shadow but I am not sure yet.
Here are some swatches...I'm NC50 for Reference.

I just want to say that ALL OF THE MES's are BEE-YOU-TEE-FULL!!!! I want them all!!!! But due to being a poor student
I couldn't buy any yesterday. I checked out Night Violet but decided to get Hipster instead because it just was more interesting IMO. The nail polishes are HAWT!! I put BBG on my pinky nail and it was super pretty!! I only had about $20 to spend so I just picked up a VAE and B2M'd Hipster. When I get some more money, I am definetely going back for the eyeshadows and nail polishes and a b/u of the VAE. I'm gonna wait to get the paintstick when DSquared releases.
Oh and I used the VAE last night and I am in LOVE!!
I had some minor breakouts and this morning most if not all were smaller and damn near gone!! I am so angry that this is LE!!!! We have to get MAC to make this stuff permanent!!! Definetely try it out if you can get your hands on it!!!

So got my MAC-over for Style Black! It was great! But the excitement of the collection has waned.
I got the BLACK FIRE look w/ black lips instead of pale.
MAC-over: (I'm NC50.) Instead of the black base-I requested the grease paintstick be used-BEAUTIFUL! It's a must have!
It's black with fine purple sparkle throughout.
We smoked the grease paintstick out into a cat eye, put Texture and Era e/s in my crease, went over the grease paintstick w/ Blue Flame me/s, and I requested my eyes be rimmed with Blooz e/l. For the lips I did Black Knight l/s, no base or anything, then it was lined w/ NightMoth l/p. Then a light dusting of Fever blush to the cheek. My brown eyes popped so much! What a winning look!
So I bought:
I found that all that could tie me down for the collection was a grease paintstick and Blue Flame me/s. They looked good layered over the other and I needed a first me/s. So why not? Think I'll double up on the grease paintsticks from this collection-they're the most amazing thing to me!
No Buy:
As for the black lips...probably gonna go with a cheap NYX black l/s or even OCC lip tar in TARRED. Midnight Media and Black Knight l/s don't seem worth it to me.
The Blackware glass has me on the fence. Could just get a NYC gloss in clear and pump some matte black e/s in there and be done.
Had no need for new skincare...so that's that with the Volcanic scrub and mask.
Oh and got a sneak peek of the Holiday Collection and Dsquared2 Collection:
The grease paintsticks for the Dsquared2 Collection are sad. They're just a generic looking (medium dark sky) blue and (you've seen it) purple. Damn, MAC. And besides the grease paintsticks, there's 1 l/s, and possibly 1 contouring duo that is WOC friendly in the collection.
Oh but let's not forget Feline Power Kohl/p!
[What's wrong with MAC that they don't formulate a black, black e/p like Feline that's permanent all year round ?]

I posted swatches just to let you guys know. I only got Bling Black and Blackfire Glimmerglass, Midnight Media and two tubes of VAE. I'm going to pick up Night Violet at one of the CCO's. I know everybody's been downing the other lippes but I'm going to try them with my Urban Decay Lip Primer Potion and I think that should work. I'll let you guys know.

I ended up with the greasepaint stick nightviolet and blackfire. The MA that did my makeup did a great job, but the pics that I took on my phone don't really show it. So I'm going to take a pic of the lips and put it up here some time this weekend.

Did anyone see the video on the website, that showcases Nadine (senior artist) doing the layering effect for dark lips. I tried that the other night, and wow.. talk about opaque. I think this is how you can really make some unique lips, playing with the under tone of the pencils.
Just thought I'd share.

Indeed, not a smolder pencil in sight! She layered to death with 2 deep violet plum pencils.
However the eye look at the end was a no no.

just wanted to share... my overall impression of style black MES'S glitter bomb baby...
In spite of that I did get young punk. I'll be playing around with it to nail my club look
the GPS was okay but I have the big black crayons from HIP as well as numerous black eye liners so I really didn't see the value of GPS all you'll EVER need to do a smokey eye is a plain ole black eyeliner...
Night Violet looked pretty on my lips but I tried that and Fautlessly and they both looked really pretty on my lips.. but i couldn't shake the sense I already owned something similar with the cult of cherry mattenes (which get moderate play both personally and for my kit) and so I passed
I ended up getting violetta instead and I got four of the cremesheen glasses.
and just a real question.. how often are you going to wear black lips.... so i passed on all that like someone mentioned before a cheappy or even black eyeliner with some gloss on top for sheen is all i need
still ended up spending 150 :-/
I'm gonna go back and get smolder though
I know .. boo me
