I'm glad I picked it up but I think I'm going to stare at my arm (and the box) lovingly until I decide how much I want to keep it/if my plan to split it up with another MUTer comes through. I'm mostly surprised about how light the pinks look! And, as much as I don't need more reds I probably won't wear - I'm really happy with the reds in this set!
Haha that's my problem... I can never find the right shades of pinks and nudes, reds look good on me but I have drawers full of reds I don't even wear because it's either too bright for daytime or doesn't go with my eyeshadow that day, ughhh lol. I got the Hautelook lip bag that was chock full of reds and I think I've maybe used one of them once... which makes me sad, so I really need to stay away from reds. I think my favorite nudes/pinks are from the NYX soft matte lip creams, they have a really nice color selection, especially online.

Boom. Got it. Underwhelmed by the pinks and especially the nudes (one of them perfectly blended into my skin) but that's OK since I don't love those anyway. The SA was pretty annoyed with me. Whatever dude.
@[SIZE=11.8181819915771px]usofjessamerica - [/SIZE]Thanks for sharing this! I'm tempted to get this set, but there are a few colors that would never work for me. sigh 

 
Ok this weekend I am on a mission.  I see that the Too Faced Everything Nice has a shadow called Totally Fetch.  This is also in the Pretty Rebel Palette.  Since I have several Too Faced palettes I think I may have most of these shadow!

Yay for freeing up more room in the makeup budget!

Was also able to talk my self out of the melted set since I have Peony and am getting the fushia one in the Sephora Give me more lip.

If only more stores/brands would release collections right now!

 
That was the full size smashbox for me last year. SUPER disappointing that one of the full size ones I could use as a concealer,lol.
Was it the Smashbox in Nylon Nude?  That was my favorite from last years set  :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />  I wear it every time I go out at night.  My friends and I call it my Vegas club lipstick  :smilehappyyes:

 
The Too Faced La Belle Carousel, as well as the Beauty Wishes & Sweet Kisses, Melted Kisses and Under The Mistletoe sets are now up on TooFaced.com. I jumped on the Under The Mistletoe, because the swatches I saw were simply gorg, but I think some of you were interested in the Melted Kisses set? It looks super cute! I am guessing the colors are Melted Nude, Peony, Violet and Fuschia, but I could be wrong.

If you decide to order from Too Faced's site, use code LOVIN for free Glow to Go set. ;) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> AFAIK, there are no free shipping or discount codes right now.

So, I think the Give Me More Lip Set is going back. What's funny is that the nudes are the only colors that really work for me, even the pinks are a little too much. The reds are pretty, but I already have more reds than I'll ever use. Alas, this also happened with the last Give Me More Lip set, but as soon as this new one went live all reason and logic dissipated and all I could think was "Pretty colors!" Oh well, I guess this leaves more for me to get later! I still think this is a killer set for whoever could get a use out of the majority of colors (or if you're doing a trade), but that person is not me.

I agree, I wanted this set so bad until I realized most of the colors are to dark and they all seem to be a similar shade.

 
@@coffeecardigan - Thank you!  I have been wondering if I am picking up much product on my brush.  I don't see any on my brush.  So, I keep going at it in hopes to see more.   I will play with it some more.  Thanks for responding. I will take the cheesy glow!  That is what I am after too.   

 
The studded lip set is the only thing holding me back from the give me more lip. I wanted the KVD set last year and held off and regretted it so I really want the studded set this year.
Word.  I stalk Sephora every day looking for it.  I am so scared it will sell out and then I will be a sad panda.
Omg, I'm a studded lip set stalker too!!! Any guesses on its release? Will it only be available to vib first? I'm only a BI.

this is also the only set I want so far...I'll wait to see if bite releases a larger set too.

 
I just found out I'll be getting some extra $$ next week. Most of it is going towards paying off bills and buying a new couch, but I think I'll treat myself to a pretty large Sephora order with some of what's left over. :D /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

Also, seriously obsessed with Ladyflower from the UD lipstick set. I almost bought one off of eBay, but I'm thinking I might just buy a whole other set. I can always swap/sell the ones I don't want dupes of!

 
I received my Urban Decay lipstick set. I actually like it more in person than from the pictures on the website. I tend to shy away from bright colors but I like a lot of these. Liar (the nude) is my favorite but I'm a fan of the pinks too. The only ones I'm not sure about are Gash and 69 but it's still worth it for me. Happy happy! :) /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" />

 
Ok so I learned I never need to buy Too Faced again.  I have a lot of palettes from them and who knows how many of those shades are duplicated.  I was too sad to check.

But I did find the following colors from the Too Faced Everything Nice set are in other palettes:

1. Paper Roses-Too Faced Country Palette

2. Heaven-Too Faced Neutral Eye

3. Honey Pot-Too Faced Neutral Eye

4. Girly-Too Faced Pretty Rebel

5. Totally Fetch-Too Faced Pretty rebel

I am also pretty sure some of them are colors I owe but different names.  I am going to go to Sephora later today and see if I can swatch the palette and compare with the palettes I have to see what colors are dupes.

I get lured in by pretty packaging and ooh shiny but this exercise has showed me I need to compare palettes from the same brand before purchasing!

Oh and I saw Melted Kisses set is on Sephora.  Come on KVD studded lippies set!

Too Faced is known for reusing colors and changing the names, or just flat out using the same colors over and over again... one of the reasons I don't buy many of their palettes.I actually passed on A Few of My Favorite Things last year, which is probably a good thing considering! :rolleyes:

 
I stopped by Sephora today (yes, sephora on a saturday!) to touch the Full Frontal set and make sure I will use it all. I couldn't find it anywhere and so I asked 2 sa's if they had it in stock...

1. Neither of them had a clue what I was talking about 

2. They both then misinformed me that it was a UD exclusive and I could only get on UD.com

3. Both didn't bat an eye when I said "It is on Sephora online" 

This is why I only go in to swatch....
