Vad tycker ni om den här kollektionen? Själv är jag lite smått besviken på förpackningarna, det hade varit bra mycket coolare med en design i stil med de ursprungliga skisserna. Men jag tycker att Maleficent är så jäkla ball och hennes förpackningar ser aboslut snyggast ut (ja, jag är en sucker för LE-förpackningar), så hennes del av kollektionen ska jag nog spana lite extra på. Speciellt nagellacken ser ut att vara riktigt läckra! Missa inte läppstiftet Violetta om ni inte redan har det, det är en PRO-produkt i vanliga fall - ack så snyggt det är! Heartless-läppstiftet ur Cruella de Vil-delen och Bite of an apple-rouget ur Evil Queen-delen låter riktigt fina dom med, vill ha!
In English: This fall, MAC finally releases their collection in collaboration with Disney - Venomous Villains, a collection based on four disney villains - Cruella de Vil (from One hundred and One dalmatians), Maleficent (from Sleeping Beauty), Queen (from Snow White) and Doctor Facilier (from The princess and the frog).
What do you think of this collection? I'm a bit dissapointed in the packaging, I would rather have seen a design like the original promo sketches. But I do adore Maleficent because she's awesome and her packaging looks the best (yes, I'm a sucker for LE packaging), so I will probably oogle her part of the collection a little bit extra. I especially look forward to seeing the nail polishes! Don't miss the lipstick Violetta if you already own it, it's usually a PRO product and it's gorgeous! The Hertless lipstick from Cruella de Vil and the Bite of and apple blush from Evil Queen sounds gorgeous aswell!

- Factory - Light opal mint (Frost) (Limited Edition)
Den här kollektionen har väckt en hel del uppmärksamhet i skönhetsvärlden de senaste dagarna på grund av inspirationskällan. Rodartes originalkoncept sägs vara hämtat från kvinnorna som jobbar i fabrikerna i Juarez under vidriga förhållanden. Det är en väldigt fattig stad, och den är även känd för sin otroligt höga mordstatistik, varav de flesta mord förblir olösta och en stor del av de mördade är kvinnor. Då produkterna i den här kollektionen har namn som "Juarez", "ghost town", "bordertown" och "factory" är det många som har reagerat och tyckt att kollektionen är osmaklig och oetisk. Både MAC och Rodarte har uttalat sig om frågan efter att diskussionen uppkommit:
STATEMENT FROM MAC COSMETICS:
"We understand that product names in the M·A·C Rodarte collection have offended our consumers and fans. This was never our intent and we are very sorry. We continue to listen carefully to the comments we have received and have the following plans to address concerns:
We are committed to donating $100,000 to a non-profit organization that has a proven, successful track-record helping women in need and that can directly improve the lives of women in Juarez in a meaningful way.
We are changing the product names in the M·A·C Rodarte collection. As we have done in the past, please be assured that we will communicate details regarding our progress in this matter."
STATEMENT FROM RODARTE:
"Our makeup collaboration with M·A·C developed from inspirations on a road trip that we took in Texas last year, from El Paso to Marfa. The ethereal nature of this landscape influenced the creative development and desert palette of the collection. We are truly saddened about injustice in Juarez and it is a very important issue to us. The M·A·C collaboration was intended as a celebration of the beauty of the landscape and people in the areas that we traveled."
Vad tycker ni om den här kollektionen och diskussionen som har uppkommit kring den? Tycker ni att MAC ska dra tillbaka kollektionen eller byta namn på vissa av produkterna? Själv tycker jag att det är lite klantigt av både Rodarte och MAC att inte tänka sig för innan man döpte vissa av produkterna eller att göra tillräckligt grundlig research över exakt vad det är man hämtar inspiration från och försöker tjäna pengar på, samtidigt som jag tycker det är bra av MAC att donera delar av inkomsterna från kollektionen till de utsatta i Juarez. Jag är osäker på om jag kommer handla något ur kollektionen, men det är till största delen på grund av att ingen av produktbeskrivningarna lockar mig något nämnvärt.
In English: This fall, MAC releases a collection in collaboration with the designer duo Rodarte. The collection is based on Rodarte's fall collection, which have been inspired by the mexican border town Juarez.
This collection have caused quite a controversary in the beuaty community the latest few days due to the source of inspiration. Rodarte's original concept is said to be inspired by the women working at the factories in Juarez under very poor conditions. It's a very poor town, and it's also known for it's extremely high murder count, where most of the murders stay unsolved and a lot of the murder victims are women. As the products in this collection have names like "Juarez", "ghost town", "border town" and "factory", many people have reacted and finds this collection both tasteless and unethical. Both MAC and Rodarte have made a statement after the discussion began, you can see them above.
What do you think of this colleciton and the discussion that have rised around it? Do you think that MAC should pull this collection back or change the name of some products? Myself, I find it a bit clumsy of both MAC and Rodarte not to think carefully enough before naming some of the products an not to do their research thoroughly enough on exactly what they're getting their inspiration from and try to make a profit from, but at the same time I think it's great of MAC to donate parts of the sales to help the people of Juarez. I'm uncertain of if I will get anything from this collection, but it's mostly because of the product descriptions doesn't tempt me that much.

Jag är riktigt nyfiken på den här mascaran, och det gör ju inget att förpackningen är döläcker den heller! Den är lite dyrare än vanliga MAC-mascaror, men man får ju trots allt två mascaror i en. Den här tänker jag definitivt prova när den släpps här i Sverige!
In English: This fall, MAC releases a new exciting mascara - Haute & Naughty lash. The mascara has got two caps for the same wand - one that adds less mascara to the wand for length and separation, and one that adds more mascara to the wand for volume and definition.
I'm really curious about this mascara, and it doesn't hurt that the packaging looks gorgeous! It's a bit more expensive than the other MAC mascaras, but you do get like two mascaras in one. I'll definately try this one out when it comes to Sweden!

In English: MAC literally throws collections at us this late summer and fall - in july or august, the Dare to Wear collection is being released, with several bright eyeshadows and a new lipgloss formula - dare to wear lipglass.
For once, the lipglosses doesn't appeal to me at all, but the eyeshadows on the other hand... I have a real hard time to resist bright eyeshadows, damn you MAC! I already own Atlantic blue and Lime though, and Free to be and Winkle are permanent at freestanding MAC stores. Of the rest of the eyeshadows, Going bananas and Sassy grass appeal the most to me. Aqua and Sky blue are available at PRO stores, and it looks like Zingy could be a dupe of Electric eel, Louder please a dupe of Passionate and Shock a holic a dupe of Vibrant grape or MUFE #92 - it's really hard to see from promo shots though, so I really look forward to some swatches of these! =)

Jag är tokförtjust i färgschemat! Väldigt mycket godbitar som känns väldigt lockande, bara MAC har lyckats med mineralize-formulan den här gången. Låter ju onekligen lovande att färgerna beskrivs som "satin" om man, som jag, inte är förtjust i förra årets glitterbomber, Love to love och Calm, cool & collected ser ut att vara riktigt fina. Läppstiftet Go for it, cremesheen-glasset Chillin' och mineralize-rouget New Vibe låter intressanta med! Men jag måste säga att jag blir lika besviken varje gång jag ser att MAC repromotar gamla MSF-färger, men aldrig Lightscapade som jag så gärna vill ha... Snyft! Dock kommer jag nog knipa ett exemplar av Stereo rose och eventuellt Petticoat.
In English: At the end of the summer, MAC launches In the groove, which is a kind of a follow-up of last year's mineralize collection Color Craft. The collection consists, among others, of mineralize blushes, MSF, mineralize eyeshadows and cremesheen glasses.
I'm stoked about the colour scheme! This collection has got lots of goodies if MAC nails the mineralize formula this time. The "satin" colour descriptions does feel very appealing if you, like me, don't like last year's glitter bombs - Love to love and Calm, cool & collection looks really pretty. The lipstick Go for it, the cremesheen glass Chillin' and the mineralize blush New vibe sounds interesting aswell! Allthough I have to admit that I get a bit dissapointed every time I see that MAC re-releases old MSF shades but never Lightscapade, which is at the top of the top of my wish list... I will probably pick up Stereo rose and maybe Petticoat, though.

MAC - Superglass collection
I juli släpper MAC ett nytt sorts läppglans - superglass. Superglass är ett glittrigt läppglans, ungefär som dazzleglass fast mycket glittrigare och med flake-glitter istället för reflectsglitter, och mer färgtäckning. Låter hur smarrigt som helst, eller hur!
Release date: May 7th 2010 (US/Canada), July (International)
Shattered, decimated, blinded by a fantastic, intergalactic lip light! Just when you thought Dazzleglass was the best-of bright, along comes Superglass, with secret, snowflake-shaped helicone pearls sparkling in three different facets for triple the dazzle! Lips have gone big bang, explosively dimensional, a rare eclipse! Gloss feels slick and sleek on application with no draggy speed bumps, not a hint of grit. A light aroma of vanilla enhances kissability. Extreme innovation that’s a good reflection on MAC and the seductress lucky enough to strike upon it.
- Tunnel of Love - Deep blue brown (Pearl) (Limited Edition)
- Sugar Overload White beige (Pearl) (Limited Edition)
- Disco Blend - Light tan (Pearl) (Limited Edition)

Cherry Electric, Disco Blend, Fab Frenzy, Gift Wrap, Sugar Overload,
Superflash!, Sweet Tart, Totally Bang!, Tunnel of Love
Något som låter lockande? Jag är lite sugen på Totally Bang!, Fab Frenzy och Sweet tart!
In English: This summer, MAC releases a new kind of lipgloss - superglass. Superglass is like dazzleglass, but even sparklier(!) with flakie glitter instead of reflects glitter, and has more colour opacity. Sounds delicious, don't you think?
Anything that makes your heart skip a beat? I'm feeling a bit drawn torwards Totally Bang!, Fab frenzy and Sweet tart!

MAC - Alice + Olivia collection
Varje år släpper MAC minst en kollektion ihop med en känd designer. Tidigare har vi sett samarbeten tillsammans med bland annat Alexander McQueen och DSquared2, och i år görs samarbetet ihop med den amerikanska designerduon Alice + Olivia. Desvärre verkar det i dagsläget som att kollektionen endast släpps i USA, Japan och Korea, vilket jag tycker är himla tråkigt. Fler MAC-kollektioner hit till Sverige, tack!
MAC Alice + Olivia
Release date: July 8th 2010 (US), August 2010 (Japan/Korea)
- Sparklicious - Creamy pale pinky white with soft multi-dimensional pearlized pigments (Limited Edition)
- If it’s Pink… - Hot pink with soft multi-dimensional pearlized pigments (Limited Edition)
- I Want Candy - Hot yellow with soft multi-dimensional pearlized pigments (Limited Edition)
Pigment ($19.50)
- Later - Black with transforming purple pearlized pigments (Limited Edition)
- If It Sparkles… - White with transforming pink pearlized pigments (Limited Edition)
- Partylicious - Turquoise with silver pearlized pigments (Limited Edition)
Nail Lacquer ($12.00)
- Morning After - Creamy turquoise (Cream) (Limited Edition)
- So Rich So Pretty - Bright purple with pearlized pigments (Frost) (Limited Edition)
- Military - Black matte with silver suede pearl (Matte with Pearl) (Limited Edition)
OK. Jag MÅSTE lägga vantarna på samtliga tre pigment, dom låter ju hur coola som helst!!!
In English: Each year, MAC launches at least one collection in collaboration with a famous designer. MAC has given us collections in collaboration with Alexander McQueen and DSquared2 among others in the past, and this year, the collaboration is together with the american designer duo Alice + Olivia. Unfortunally, it seems like this collection will only launch in the US, Japan and Korea. Booo!
OK. I NEED to get my hands on all three pigments, they sound awesome!!!

Urban Decay - Sommaren 2010
Ett märke som jag tycker väldigt mycket om, men som vi tyvärr inte har här i Sverige, är amerikanska Urban Decay. I sommar släpper de en kollektion bestående av bland annat ett nagellacksset, en ögonskuggspalett och fyra fixeringssprayer.
Release date: March 30th 2010 (US/Canada)
Summer of Love Eyeshadow Palette ($29.00)
- Chopper eyeshadow - coppery fawn with silver microglitter
- Maui Wowie eyeshadow - medium gold with silver glitter
- Smog eyeshadow - deep coppery bronze
- Flash eyeshadow - bright iridescent purple
- Bourbon 24/7 Eye Pencil - brown with teeny gold glitter
- Sin travel-size Eyeshadow Primer Potion - champagne shimmer
Summer of Love Nail Kit ($28.00)
7 shades of miniature-sized nail polish shades.
- Shine On - beige sparkle
- Woodstock - radioactive pink
- Love Light - baby pink sparkle
- Hashbry - bright orchid
- Magic Bus - emergency orange
- Aquarius - electric teal
- Psychedelic Sister - bright coral
Urban Defense Tinted Moisturizer ($32.00)
Features light moisture, just enough color coverage, and SPF 20. With just the right amount of tint, light-diffusing pigments diminish the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, providing a youthful finish. The formula is buildable and highly breathable, so reapply as needed to get the coverage you desire. Our custom multi-mineral complex contains magnesium, potassium, sodium, zinc, lysine, and Vitamins A & E to nourish your skin. Anti-oxidants ginseng root extract and ginkgo biloba leaf extract help protect against free radical damage … like a big bodyguard for your skin.
- Halo - Light
- Bodyguard - Medium light
- Bulletproof - Medium
- Forcefield - Dark
Guardian Angel Spray Moisturizer with SPF 8 ($26.00)
This superfine mist can actually replace your existing moisturizer. Time release technology ensures that Guardian Angel continues to hydrate over a 24-hour period… probably longer than you actually need it! How does it work? The formula is hygroscopic, meaning it actually attracts and binds water to itself. Even with SPF 8, Guardian Angel feels light as air – no heavy moisturizer feeling. Worn under makeup, it hydrates evenly and creates a perfect base for foundation, allowing for smoother makeup application after misting. The lightweight formula is dermatologist tested, allergy tested, great for sensitive skin, oil-free, paraben-free, and vegan. Reduces the powdery makeup look you can sometimes get from foundation, and gives skin a healthy glow.
Makeup Setting Sprays ($29.00)
What prompted this marriage in makeup-saving heaven? Urban Decay and Skindinavia share a vision: long-lasting makeup. Urban Decay owns the market on pre-makeup prep with our Primer Potion franchise, while Skindinavia has developed an exciting lineup of post-makeup products. We were wowed by their technological expertise and clinical testing. Sure, there are other setting sprays on the market, but Skindinavia pumps their products full of innovative, super-effective ingredients. We worked with the Skindinavia team to identify the proprietary ingredients that best fit the needs of our customers. Together, we came up with three formulations that address shine, dryness and the need for all-night wear (of course).
- All Nighter - Facebook-ready makeup, all night (or day) long–great for all skin types
- Dew Me - Cooling effects prevent makeup meltdown; designed for dry/combination skin and those in hot and humid climates
- De Slick - Keeps oil under control so makeup stays perfect all day; great for oily/combination/acne-prone skin
De-Slick in a Tube ($28.00)
Forever banish a greasy t-zone (or any zone for that matter) with our lightweight gel, developed to keep matte under hot studio lights or in muggy heat. Apply De-Slick after your moisturizer, then wait about 30 seconds to apply foundation. This addicting formula provides unbelievable oil control and absorbing action, is super easy to use, and is miraculous for midday touch-ups.
Pocket Rocket Lip Gloss ($19.00)
- Max - Meet surfer Max, uber sweet and bashful; he doesn’t mind getting salty or wet, and this pinky nude gloss is ideal for sunset surf sessions.
- Colin Fireman - Colin really got our temperatures blazin’ with his bravado, and we salute his daring service with a punchy orange-red shade.
Jag är väldigt nyfiken på fixeringssprayerna! Något som lockar er? Urban Decay finns som sagt inte att köpa i Sverige, men kan klickas hem från till exempel brittiska ASOS.
In English: A makeup brand that I'm very fond of, but unfortunaly isn't available in Sweden, is american Urban Decay. This summer, they release a collection consisting of a nail polish set, an eyeshadow palette and four setting sprays, among others.
I'm really curious about those setting sprays! Do you want anything from this collection?

Något som kommer locka er vid en utlandsresa i sommar? Jag ska nog tyvärr inte åka någonstans, men gothette-boxen, dazzleglasstrion, läspptiftstrion och shape and perfect brush kit hade jag nog dreglat rejält över om jag hade fått möjlighet!
In English: Every summer, MAC launches a collection named Trip, exclusive for their duty free shops. Unfortunally, Sweden doesn't have a duty free MAC counter, but since there are many of you that will go abroad on vacation this summer, I thought that some collection info about this year's Trip collection might be interesting anyway =)
Unfortunally, I don't have any prices on the products since it varies from place to place, but overall these kits usually are well worth their money, and especially at the duty free counters where the prices are lower overall. Anything you'll be checking out when travelling this summer? Unfortunally, I probably won't go anywhere this summer, but I would probably have drooled a lot over the gothette box, the dazzleglass trio, lipstick trio and the shape and perfect brush kit if I had the opportunity!
For my US readers: MAC recently launched last year's Trip collection at their US website if you missed out on that one!

MAC - Opulash mascara
I sommar lanserar MAC ytterligare en ny volymmascara; Opulash. Mascaran har en medelstor/stor borste med smal tipp, vilket gör det lätt som en plätt att komma åt även de inre fransarna, och den ska ge både volym, böj och separera fransarna på en gång.
Release date: May 27 2010 (US/Canada), June 2010 (International)
THE BIGGEST, BADDEST, BOUFFANT LASHES EVER ARE MAKING NOISE WITH THEIR SEXY SWEEP… the most extremevolumization ever seen! Just like going to your hairdresser for the boldest Barbarella blowout you’d ever dare to wear, Opulash creates aesthetic extremes when it gets going, for a dramatic end look. It’s all in the brush: enlarged and engineered to grab roots, lift, hold, replicate, exaggerate, and build-out like an architect intent on astounding with structural sleight-of-hand. Pick up the brush – see it volumize and curl – and you’ll know the difference. Large diameter backs you up, tapered front tip makes inner corners sleeker to reach. Needless to say, no clumping or Spider-Woman Syndrome. Superlative separation, sublime innovation: Everything a M•A•C Artist lives for!
* Bad, Bad Black - Black
Jag är nyfiken! Det låter som att det här kan vara ett mellanting mellan Plush lash och Studio fix lash, så för er som inte gillar den gigantiska borsten på Plush lash så kanske den här passar er bättre. Själv älskar jag feta borstar, ju större desto bättre nästan. Den här mascaran kommer nog lanseras lagom tills det är dags för mig att köpa ny mascara, så det blir nog ett köp för min del!
In English: This summer, MAC launches yet another volume mascara; Opulash. The mascara has got a medium/large sized wand with a narrow tip, which makes it easy to reach even the lashes in the inner corner of the eye. The mascara is described to give both volume, curl and separation in one stroke.
I'm really curious about this one! It sounds like it could be a mix between Plush lash and Studio fix lash, so for those of you who don't like the humongous brush on Plush lash, this might suit you better. Myself, I love fat wands, the bigger the better! This mascara will launch about when it's time for me to get a new mascara, so I'll probably pick up a tube!

Zoya Flash and Sparkle
Zoya är ett av mina favoritmärken när det kommer till nagellack. Urtjusiga färger, lättlackade, snabbtorkande och hållbara. Tyvärr är det lite småknepigt att få tag i Zoya i Sverige (det finns dock en butik i Göteborg som säljer Zoya), och min hovleverantör Trans Design har tyvärr inte märket i sitt sortiment så det blir att beställa från eBay för min del. Nåja, det fungerar ju det med, och årets sommarkollektion Flash and Sparkle från Zoya är något jag definitivt kommer spana närmare på när den släppts!
Zoya har lite av en tradition att lansera sommarkollektioner i två delar som balanserar varandra. Förra året var det Truth or Dare, med vampiga respektive lättburna och oskyldiga lack, och Flash and Sparkle består av två av årets heta trender när det kommer till nagellack: krämiga pastellack och galna glitterlack.
Release date: April 2010
Flash Collection
- Robyn - perfect turquoise cream
- Perrie – soft lavender cream
- Dana – american rose cream
- Jolene – summer pink cream
- Maura – electric crimson cream
- Jancyn – soft tangerine cream
Sparkle Collection
- Ivanka – mermaid green sparkling metallic
- Charla – tropical blue sparkling metallic
- Mimi – royal purple sparkling metallic
- Alegra – fuchsia pink sparkling metallic
- Nidhi – rich red sparkling metallic
- Gilda – fashion pink sparkling metallic
Den suveräna svenska nagellack-prenumerationstjänsten Nail Mail tog in Truth or Dare förra året, så jag håller tummarna att så även blir fallet i år med Flash and Sparkle!
Vilka lack är ni sugna på? Jag suktar främst efter glitterlacken tror jag eftersom jag beställde en hel del pasteller från China Glaze-kollektionen Up and Away. Ivanka, Charla, Mimi och Nidhi är jag riktigt nyfiken på!
In English: Zoya is one of my favourite nail polish brands. Gorgeous colours, easy to work with, fast drying and durable. Unfortunally, Zoya is a bit hard to come by in Sweden (there is a shop in Gothenburg that sells them for an outrageous price though), and my usual supplier Trans Design doesn't have Zoya in their range so I have to order them off eBay. Oh well, I guess that works for me, and this year's summer collection Flash and Sparkle is definately something I will have a closer look on once it have been released!
Zoya have a bit of a tradition to launch summer collections in tow parts that balance each other. Last year was Truth or Dare, with vampy and innocent polishes respectively, and Flash and Sparkle consists of two of this year's nail polish trends: creamy pastels and crazy glitter polishes.
Are you curious about any of the polishes from this collection? I'm mostly all over the glitters since I ordered quite a few pastels from the China Glaze collection Up and Away. I really want to take a closer look at Ivanka, Charla, Mimi and Nidhi!

China Glaze sommaren 2010 - Poolside
Inför varje sommar brukar China Glaze släppa en kollektion med starka färger. Förra årets kollektion Kicks var faktiskt det som fick mig att fastna så för nagellack! I år heter sommarkollektionen Poolside, och består av sex stycken neon-lack.
China Glaze Poolside
Release date: April 1st 2010
Lounging poolside, sipping on a drink and reading the latest magazine…makes you think of Summer doesn’t it? The only thing missing is that perfect manicure and pedicure! Dip into the summer with some of the brightest and most amazing neons from the China Glaze Poolside collection! Perfect for fingers, and especially the toes, nothing says Summer of 2010 like a couple coats of bright polish! The 6 colors in the Poolside collection include:
- Pool Party - Neon Pink
- Flip Flop Fantasy - Neon Coral
- Sun Worshipper - Neon Orange
- Yellow Polka Dot Bikini - Neon Yellow
- Kiwi Cool-Ada - Neon Green
- Towel Boy Toy - Neon Blue
Scrangie har redan swatchat färgerna, och lacken är beräknade att släppas nu någon gång under våren. Jag har läst februari i vissa bloggar och första april hos andra, men det blir väl till att hålla utkik hos transdesign helt enkelt =) Jag vill ha kiwi-coolada, sun worshiper och yellow polka dot bikini! Tänk på att neonlack har en tendens att torka till en halvmatt finish, så ett bra överlack är bra att ha till dessa.
Update: Fick nyss pressinformation om kollektionen från China Glaze: den är beräknad att släppas den första april =)
In English: Each summer, China Glaze usually launches a collection with bright colours. Last year's collection Kicks was acctually the thing that made me crazy about nail polish! This year's summer collection is called Poolside, and consists of six neon polishes.
Scrangie has already swatched the shades, and they will launch some time during this spring. I've read everything between february and april in different blogs, so I guess I'll have to keep a lookout at transdesign =) I want kiwi-coolada, sun worshiper and yellow polka dot bikini! Bear in mind that neons tends to dry to a semi-matte finish, so make sure to use a good top coat with these.
Update: I just got some press info from China Glaze: The collection will launch on April 1st!

MAC - Prep for colour collection
I april kommer en lite mindre MAC-kollektion med fokus på prep+prime-serien. Delar av den här kollektionen är exklusiv för asien, så i detta inlägg har jag endast tagit med de produkter som kommer till oss i väst.
Release date: April 1st 2010 (US/Canada), April 2010 (International)

Jag tror inte jag kommer köpa något från den här kollektionen, det enda som ser lite spännande ut är ögonskuggan sorcery och den har jag faktiskt redan i min palett från den senaste julkollektionen =) Spana in den om ni inte redan har den, den är jättefin!

I'll probably skip this collection, the only thing that looks exciting is the eyeshadow sorcery which I acctually already have in my palette from the latest holiday collection =) Make sure to check it out if you don't have it, it's gorgeous!

What do you think about this collection? I like the color scheme, allthough it is a bit "meh". The eyeshadows memorabilia and gazette grey catched my eye, and chromagraphic pencil in NC15/NW20. I'm not too fond of wearing stark white pencils on my waterline to create the impression of a more awake eye, it's too hars against my eyes, so this will probably create a softer result!

Sigh. I'm really bummed about the fact that this collection won't come to Sweden, I love the greasepaint sticks and pearlglide pencils, and I'm dying to try out the lip stain markers! =( Thank god I've found a sweet gal who can do CP's for me in the US! Lipstain markers purposefully red and full of flare, greasepaint sticks greengrease, zinc zone and slick black plus the pearlglide pencil undercurrent are all at the top of my wish list!
