i must have missed it since it is absolutely amazing! it's exactly what i've been wishing for & then some. i have only played a little with it since i was under the weather when it arrived so i'm super excited about doing a full face look! any other ladies fall head over heels for this kit?

Hi Nadja! I love mine, but I was sick also (still am...) when it arrived. I have only done a full face with it 2 times; took pictures one time.

It really is so pretty!!! I love all the colours even more than I thought I would (I left a glowing review already)

I tried 'Velvet dream' for a blush yesterday and it turned out great. And that Star Bright is just so sparkly and cute. I am considering getting another kit just so I have enough of it (I know I would buy a large size Star Bright if it became available)!

So after all that, in short I LOVE the kit, I've just been very sick and didn't post it yet...so... BIG YAY for the kit!!!

are any of the colors available from the kit?? I saw wonder in the Elemental eyes collection today.

the shadows from the 2007 nice and naughty kits are available plus all the other elemental lustres that were introduced after these kits were sold... but none of the items from the 2008 valentine sweetheart kit are available to purchase seperately... yet. they are a sneak preview to the new gothic lolita eye collection. you're prolly mixing the shade "wonderland" from the gothic lolita collection with "wonder" in the elementals. sometimes i get confused when there are hundreds of shadows and a few have similar names... but i just blame it on the fibrofog.

abby ~ i bet "velvet dream" looked gorgeous as a blush! (and would be awesome as a lippie too... can't wait to try that out!) and star bright is adorable and sooo lovely and feminine... but not "girly". pretty pretty!!!

i sure hope you start feeling better soon sweetie! i'd tell you to get lots of rest and pamper yourself with a nice quiet bubble bath... but i know with toddlers you rarely get a chance to shower let alone spend some time by yourself.

I love love love the kit. The colors are all so beautiful!

Star bright is probably my fav, it is so sparkly and girly!

I didn't buy the kit but am having fun reading reviews .... at a minimum, I will definitely sample Velvet Dream and Burnt Roses when they become part of the permanent collection!

PS: Has anyone tried Velvet Dream as an eyeliner? I'd love to see pics, I'm curious if it is similar to Gothic without the purple sparkles, or like DQ Red without the black undertones, or like neither!

i guess we all have different opinions of what "girly" is.

(just a small correction ~ moonsugar said it was girly... you quoted me saying both)

velvet dream is a lot like gothic liner but without the purple sparks or the smoky undertones. it's simply gorgeous and would make a beautiful liner.

I haven't gotten to the '08 kit yet, nor the '07 kit! Today I wore the '05 kit again, but this time used "Call Me" as a crease color. Tomorrow I'll start on the '07 kit, then in a day or two get to the '08!!

The colors in all the kits are so wonderful, I'm glad I snagged the older kits while they were available.

i thought i really said both when i read it! lol! i figured i lost my mind... and was gonna blame it on the fibro fog. it took me a while to figure out.

I love, love, love, love, love, love and a million times over love star bright!!!! Oh and velvet dream! DREAMY
