Lipsticks: I was excited to see Moxie on the list.  I really only care about seeing Moxie make the list but the 3N and Eden Rocks are my favorites out of the rest of the choices.  

• Moxie
• 3N
• Eden Rocks

Lipglasses: They only color that stood out to me was Cult of Cherry, but I wouldn't mind seeing the other 2 because I love a light natural lip. 

• Cult of Cherry
• Flash of Flesh
• Icescape

Eye Shadows:  I thought there was a much better color selection with the choices of eye shadow shades. But these are my favorites!

• Moth Brown
• Heavenly Bliss
• Guacamole 

What colors are you hoping to see return in this special collection?

This collection is featuring Electric Cool eye shadows, which are a newly improved reformulation of the Big Bounce eye shadows.  I was not a fan of the Big Bounce eye shadows the first time around, as I found them to crease very easily but I might be willing to give these a try.  Pure Flash!, Superwatt, and Coil are colors that are right up my alley.  I'm keeping fingers crossed and hoping for the wear of the Maybelline Color Tattoos.  Which I currently love!

I'm thinking about picking up the Smokey Eye Kit #1.  Assuming the eye shadows are a full size, I think it's a good value.  Plus they are colors that I have previous owned and would love to have back in my current collection.  

Are you planning on shopping this collection?  Are you going to try the Electric Cool eye shadows?
