I don't know but those are the two old school colours I've had my eye on for a while, too. Would be good to see a swatch on fair skin, if anyone can help there.

:oops: thanks))) I'm so pleased))) You're very beautiful and I'm very pleased to hear it from you)))

On the pic there is one of my favorite eye makeups. it is deeper in the flesh and these color help me to make my eyes very green. Here I have Cherry blossom in the inner half of the lid, Boom as a highlighter (my HG - my skin but better) and an off-brand deep cranberry color in the crease. I have already asked Karen to clone it as it is great - it looks scary in the jar but absolutely gorgeous on everybody who tried it. It is good for lips too - it becomes soft mauve if mixed with clear gloss))
I used to pair it with Luxe or Nekkid or Intergalactic in the inner half and even light green)))) Pinks with Cranberry is my favorite Winter make up I call "Winter berries" it goes great with Espresso liner))) Bright winter berries and dark naked branches inspire me. And a little Envoy in the inner corner!

Warms like Luxe paired with Cranberry make perfect Autumn look))) I call it "Spirit of Italy" as the color match reminds me paintings of the great Italian artists, Roma and Venice shots... I haven't been there but that's how I feel))) And also I have a scarf and one of 2 caps in the world that compliment me - in these colors)))
I look bad in pink blushes (though I keep looking for the ones that will work for me) as I'm very yellow, but pinks on my eyes look good.

Irina....have you tried Quiver? I am actually not a huge fan of pink, but I ADORE Quiver. It makes a great one-color wash, or it looks great paired with tons of other shades. I like it with Moonstone in the crease, and Sonic to highlight.
The Quiver shade really brings out the green in my hazel eyes.

Isn't Quiver discontinued? I have it, here's an old (and bad, I should take a new one!) picture with Quiver and ExtraVert: http://host.silknaturals.com/forum/view ... ver#p17404

I've been eyeing Cougar and Wildcat, but decided that they look too similar to shades I already have... also on the swatch I think they look a bit too cool for me although the descriptions say otherwise. I *really* like Posh and Chic though, which kind of seem like similar colors to Cougar and Wildcat but with pearl shimmer instead of sparkle.

Let us know if you get them and what you think! My personal fave combo at the moment is Boom on lid (I like to apply it wet for extra oomph) and Dark Arts to line (again, foiled). Very simple and extremely flattering.
1 Olive : 14 Ivory (original) + a smidge of Buttery Gold

My fave now is almost the same - Homecoming Queen to hightlight, Boom on the lid, Dark Arts to line)))
Forbidden on the cheeks (got as a free sample and it is veeeery bright) and Gleming gloss on lips.

Still eyeing Cougar and Wildcat))) But if I get it I'll let you know)
