So sorry ladies-- I got tied up for so long!!!
I actually have a little story about the new Jasmine collection, too--it's been on their website for a while, and was supposed to come out in stores this past Sunday, the 17th. (My MOH is a Jasmine NUT and was checking her Sephora like every other day).
She went Monday after work and they were out of almost everything-- already! She got the perfume and they gave her a voucher for free shipping for the rest online, so she ordered it that night.
She was upset most about the compact, because it was her favorite item at the Bridal Showcase, she held the sample one in the store and they were out there AND online.
Anywho, I waddled into my Sephora and asked about the line (I didn't even SEE the display and was a bit worried) and they said it wasn't out yet in stores. Riiiiight. So I told them what was going on and after "checking" with the backroom, they brought out a compact out and sold it to me from the backroom! Woot!
The really helpful girl there told me that they were only sent
three (and yes, mine was one of those!) so she understood how MOH's store was out a day later.
Anyways, back to the
Sephora line and why I'm posting!
At the Bridal Showcase, I asked the Sephora rep if Sephora and Disney were going forward with the line and he said yes, Jasmine is the *second* Princess in what will hopefully be a nice long series.
I asked him how many more would come out this year, as I was going to buy them as gifts for my 'maids (and myself). He asked when my wedding was-- I told him April 2014-- and he thought for a second and told me only one other would be released by then, and that is *third* Princess in the series,
scheduled to come out in July of THIS year.
I lost my mind at this point (I am a Princess fanatic, if you can't tell) and told him it
had to be Belle, she is my absolute favorite and I am hoping to channel her on my wedding day-- and he laughed and said "Belle, huh? I'll, uh... I'll keep that in mind."
My MOH and I think that, while BOTH collections offer a nice range of colors for all skintones, the Jasmine collection clearly favors darker/warmer skin tones, and hotter seasons (for Summer's tans!) BATB as a movie is a perfect Autumn palette, with lots of rich jewel tones, and would be a good compliment to the the two others.
I have Belle's coloring, so most of the Cinderella colors are too icy/cool for me, and most of the Jasmine colors are too warm/dark-- so they've got to get something us neutral-colored pale ones can wear. (Plus, just imagine the rose-scented "Tale as Old as Time" perfume!!!)
But let me just say... if Belle really is next, I am CAMPING OUT to make sure I get it all, especially after seeing how popular the other two have been. And if it's not Belle, I'd love to see Rapunzel most (I'm pretty sure I'd buy "I See the Light" perfume by the gallon, that's my favorite Disney song!!!)
Enough from me. Which Princess would you like most to see next?
