I just love the flower imprints on the powders in this collection, reminds me so much of A Rose Romance! I think my favorite piece of the collection is the Lipgelee in Fashionflower, the pale sparkly pink. I have read that this formula of gloss is super shimmery but without much pigment. For the lips, I also like the Mlle Lipstick shade, the pinks are only shades that I am interested in this collection. I have a love/hate relationship with Beauty Powders, I often love the shades however using them as blush doesn't always give me the pigment payoff that I crave. They usually work best on me in the fall and winter months when my skin is pale and I have to put them away in the summer months becuase they do not show up at all with a tan. Knowing this, I still like the Alpha Girl shade but I am going to try to find a MAC Blush close to the shade itself.
I have heard very mixed reviews on the Eye Shadows, several were considering to be fantastic, others chalky and harder to work with. I read about these shades on the Temptalia blog and I was happy to see that two of my favorite shades were listed as the better ones of the collection; Fresh Daisy and Lucky Green. Free To Be didn't fare quite as well in her reviews but I still want to play with it at the MAC counter since it is a very unique shade. I love all three of these shades for the warm weather.
What I can say?! I just love flowers!
