*ahem* The 3 green shadows are coming home with me for sure, as well as Get Away Bronze and the absolutely gorgeous highlight powder. Maybe one lipstick and lipglass each for collection's sake! :D
What's on your list? Are you as excited as i am for this collection, or are not not impressed at all? Spill! :D
