These collections are now popping up at Bed Bath & Beyond stores that have an extended beauty department (or Harmon Beauty store-within-a-store). So let's take a closer look!
Maybelline Limited Edition Fashion Week Fall 2013 On The Runway Collection
Eye Studio Color Plush Silk Eyeshadow Quads, Color Show Vintage Leather Nail Colors, Color Sensational Lipsticks and Master Smoky Eyeliners
Keep reading to see all of the other displays in this collection...
Let's start from the left and work our way across the display:
The Master Smoky Eyeliners are the only products in this display that are NOT limited edition. Everything else in this display is limited edition. The Vintage Leather polish above is named Lasting Lilac (more on that a bit later in this post).
Limited Edition Eye Studio Color Plush Silk Eyeshadow Quad in Violet Femmes
Limited Edition Eye Studio Color Plush Silk Eyeshadow Quad in Autumn XXX (sorry, didn't catch the second word in the title)
Limited Edition Color Sensational Lipsticks in:
Midnight Plum, Lavender Voltage, Violet Intrigue, Fuchsia Fierce
I purchased all but Fuchsia Fierce and you can see a sneak peek of the shades I purchased here (I WILL be swatching/reviewing these very soon). Fucshia Fierce is a very pretty pinkish-fuchsia but I think I already have some similar shades from Milani so that's why I didn't buy it.
More Master Smoky liners (NOT limited edition), two more limited edition shadow quads and one more limited edition Vintage Leather polish in the shade Vintage Violet (more on that in a bit).
Limited Edition Eye Studio Color Plush Silk Eyeshadow Quad in Fall Temptation
Limited Edition Eye Studio Color Plush Silk Eyeshadow Quad in Desert XXX (I think it's "Sunset" but I'm not sure)
Now on to the separate polish display:
Maybelline Limited Edition Fashion Week Fall 2013 On The Runway
Color Show Vintage Leather Nail Colors
There were two shades in the first display I showed you and eight shades in this display, for a total of TEN shades total in this limited edition collection. I purchased all ten shades and you can get a closer look at them here. These are unlike any other polishes I've seen before, and I believe that they're not like the Nails Inc. Leather Effect polishes. You can see a quick swatch I did of the red shade above here. It's a matte jelly with iridescent flakies (all of the polishes in this collection contain flakies) and it dries down to a texture that really does look like distressed vintage leather. I'm telling you, it's quite unique! I'll be swatching all ten shades as soon as I possibly can, so please check back very soon for my post.
On to the glosses:
Maybelline Limited Edition Fashion Week Fall 2013 On The Runway
Color Sensational High Shine Lipglosses
Flash of Pink, Purple Royale, Lavender Lavish
From what I could tell, all of these limited edition glosses are cremes (sometimes there's hidden shimmer that you can only see in sunlight so don't hold me to that, but I think they're all cremes). I purchased Purple Royale (above) and Chocolate Lust (below) and you can see a better shot of them in the sun and shade here. I WILL be swatching/reviewing these soon!
Raspberry Ablaze, Berry Brilliance, Chocolate Lust
I cannot stress this enough: every single one of these glosses is ten times prettier and more vivid in person. You really MUST see these in person to fully appreciate them. I'm extremely impressed with the color selection for this Fashion Week gloss collection (as opposed to previous seasons) and the only reason I only bought two is because I had to restrain myself and only buy the shades I thought were the most unique (for drugstore).
And finally, the mascara display:
Maybelline Volum' Express Big Eyes Mascara
NOT limited edition--these mascaras are all repromotes (from permanent line).
I was hoping that there was also a limited edition Color Tattoo display in this collection, but I called around to all of the BB&B stores here in town that I know have an extended beauty department and none of them had a Fall 2013 Color Tattoo display. They had the (permanent) Color Tattoo Pigments display, but NO limited edition Fall 2013 Color Tattoos. I'm not going to give up hope that there IS a limited edition Color Tattoo display in this collection just yet but, so far, I personally haven't seen it and I have't heard from any of you about one either. So I guess we'll have to wait and see...
Once again, please check back soon for my swatches of the lipsticks and glosses I purchased, as well as swatches of all ten of the Vintage Leather polishes!
i REALLY hope they do another limited edition color tattoo collection! last year's colors were beautiful - i'm hoping to add another color like barely beige (which was in last year's fall LE color tattoo line) to my collection because i've almost hit pan :(
ReplyDeleteI know, right? I loved that one too!
DeleteO.O Fall Temptation, Violet Femmes, and Raspberry Ablaze. I may pick up the blue Vintage Leather
ReplyDeleteThe blue one is really pretty... I'm in the process of swatching it now! :)

Hope that helps!!
I love those eyeshadow quads!
ReplyDeleteMe too...it was sooo hard not to buy them! :/
DeleteIs that a gold or bronze Master Smoky liner? Looks interesting!
ReplyDeleteI'm going to want a lot from this collection!
ReplyDeleteDo you like the gloss formula? Is it worth my trouble myself to find Purple Royale? I already like the CS lipsticks, so I might snag one based on your swatches/review! Will you be picking up the palettes, per chance? These actually interest me, unlike past collections (in my opinion, the past stuff has been blah).
ReplyDeleteOmg your killing me! Lol. I need those lipsticks. Cant wait to see your review! Thanks.
ReplyDeletei've been looking for a dark purple lip stick and gloss, looks like i'll pick those up & that light pink gloss & eyeshadow sunday at rite aid , between bogo50 and the load2card coupon & the uprewards i'll be saving big time , and limited edition collections always drive me crazy :P
ReplyDeleteI got 2 of the Nail Polishes, but haven't tried yet.
ReplyDeleteAt Harmon no new Tattoo colors in this collection just the pigments
Oh boy I can't freaking wait for these!!! I can't believe you found them so quickly G.! Looking forward to reviews!
ReplyDeleteI have never been disappointed by any product from Maybelline, can't wait to try these ones!
ReplyDeleteDo you know if these will be available at the drugstore? My BB&B doesn't have a Harmon in it!
ReplyDeleteWalgreens might be getting it this week.
DeleteThose eyeshadow quads look amazing! That quad with violet and green shades is beautiful! :D Oh I hope Maybelline has another Color Tattoo collection for us!

I can't wait to find these polishes! I LOVE textured nail polishes AND flakies, so I'm probably going to need several of them. They should turn up in stores besides Bed, Bath & Beyond, right?
ReplyDeleteI need ALLLL the lipsticks!
ReplyDeleteI just saw these at my BB&B as well and bought almost everything - yikes! G, the missing names on the quads are Autumn Dream and Desert Fantasy.
ReplyDeleteFYI saw all this at Christmas Tree Shop today!
ReplyDeleteMakes sense. Christmas Tree Shops are owned by BB&B. My local one has a Harmon department.
DeleteWelp, I'm gonna need ALL those polishes....D*** it, I was considering a No Buy this month, too....as if that would ever happen, I've already bought two new polishes and it's only the 7th :)
ReplyDeleteI'm gonna need all the polishes...
ReplyDeleteI'm seriously excited about the nail polish! Can't wait to see your swatches :)
ReplyDeleteThe lipglosses look nice too with some pretty, out-of-the-ordinary colors.
Beautiful collection, fingers crossed for my local drugstore to receive before the end of the year :/
The display in my local Wags has everything together: http://imgur.com/a/JY3mu
ReplyDeleteHey there..love your blog!!! Wondering if by chance you have heard if they are going to bring these back in stock? I've been looking everywhere and having friends and family out of state look as well with no luck...
