I am SO excited about this collection. The visual is inspired around a cupcake..hence to dramatized coloring. I cannot wait! Kinda reminds me of Sweetie Cake collection from a few years ago, but I am sooo excited!!

youre right, nothing says cupcake to me here. when i first saw the promo pic, i thought "oh my". but i think the reason why this collection isnt so spectacular is because it's a prom collection. thats the theory my MACMA told me. gotta love Daria!

Okay ladies, I just saw pics on a favorite blogger of mine (this site won't allow me to type the name) but she got the pics from Bjooti.com.
Here are the pics:
ETA: Check out Tish's post...it didn't work for me.
Okay so ladies, what's your verdict so far?
I can't front, I like the Simply Delicious lipgloss.

I understand what you are saying and agree to some extent. But, I think the main difference in the Barbie visual and the Sugar Sweet one is the overall look. Barbie was very stylized. The makeup was bold but it looked good. It made you think, "I can wear that." I don't get anything like a, "I can wear that" vibe from Sugar Sweet. The woman in the promo looks like a clown. It's the very definition of making a color work for you (Barbie) versus blindly applying a color with no regard for what it will take to make it look good on you (Sugar Sweet). The whole thing just looks sloppy.

What better way to show off true color than on a high contrast back ground? That's what she provides for the colors applied. I love Scandalous Beauty's video on the Heatherette lippies because she starts out wearing Fleshpot. We know this lipstick is a hot mess alone but she worked to suit her. And that's what ANY woman wanting to wear the products from the collection would do. |

I bet if she had long, elegant, dark hair you wouldn't be saying anything ;-;
Or if she didn't look pissed.

LOL...right! I love the way you phrase things.
As for the collection itself I think I'll pass. I have like 19 shadesticks and don't need these. The MSFs look like they will be ashy. The glosses look like they will be too sheer and overpriced.

I said in the big Sugar Sweet thread that the only thing I would get is the shadesticks, but I looked at them again in the swatch thread and thought "Naw...that's ight!" I have a hard time working with them applying them to my lid, and I'm not going to spend time warming it up between my hands, no ma'am! Not worth it.
Now if this collection had some paint pots to replace the shadesticks, then we're talking!!!

I actully wouldn't mind the shadesticks if the colors were more interesting or unique. When I looked at the swatches they were similar to the shadesticks I already had. I love to see some with more of a pearl finish or metallic finish instead of a frosted or shimmery one. I also would love to see one that looked like Cornflower pigment or something similar to blue brown. Maybe some duochrome shadesticks. I have lots of ideas.

Yeah I like the shadesticks too....But different colors would be great....even some of the paint pot colors in a stick would be great! I think that is why the Red is the only one on my list...The only one remotely different from everything else they make....I think you need to submit your ideas...they are obvioulsy running out of them
