On one hand, I am thrilled to get something that I will absolutely use, all the time; at the same time I am a little disappointed I didn't get one of the limited edition eye Kaleidoscopes that some others got. To date I have not seen anyone else receive a Face Kaleidoscope. I LOVE the eyeliner and it will obviously replace my Stila Stay All Day liquid eyeliner. I'm not entirely sold on the lipstick color yet. I think it is too dark for my fair coloring and I'm not used to colors this bold or dark. The formula feels amazing, though - creamy with easy application. I will try it with a lip brush next, and I will do a wear test as well. I just slapped in on for a quick photo.
From top to bottom:
Classic Flawless Face Finish Translucent Compact Powder, Highlighter in Whisper, Radiance Powder Rouge in Echo, and Bronzer. Here is a review of the Flawless Face Kit: http://www.messywands.com/2011/11/le-metier-de-beaute-flawless.html and I've taken a few pictures of it and the lipstick in the spoiler. I have not swatched or tried on the Kaleidoscope yet. Not sure why I'm waiting but it will get there soon!
I am so happy with this big purchase and I cannot wait to see what surprises the rest of the year brings. I am totally in love with Le Metier de Beaute already. My wish list for future boxes includes: Peau Vierge Anti-Aging Correcteur, Eye Brightening and Setting Powder, Creme Fresh tint, a pinkish lipstick, and of course some of the skincare products! I know they said they will not be doing complexion products, which I think is understandable but a shame because I would love to try the tinted moisturizer or flawless foundation.

I also tried on the lipstick. Please excuse the messy application and not-so-great face...just returned from 6 days of working, with a 14 hour day. Here is the lipstick outside:

Looks like you got a great box I love the face kaleidoscope colors you got.
