I bought the Smashbox tsv on Tuesday - got it Thursday - used the stuff today.
I love the makeup! It is very high quality. That tsv was a real deal. The kit was great - the blush, lipstick, and gloss are very go-with-everything colors and the eyeshadows are beautiful. What I really love is the cream eyeliner. I love black eyeliner and this is the best I've ever used. I was able to get the thinnest line ever but the black is very intense. And it stayed on all day without disappearing. And no smudging. My eyes are very sensitive and water easily and this eyeliner really stayed put. Gorgeous. I'm going to order more of their products.

HI KITTY! I TOO ORDERED THE TSV BUT HAVEN'T RECEIVED IT YET. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THIS LINE, ESPECIALLY THE LIP GLOSS. I DON'T KNOW IF YOU WERE WATCHING THE PRESENTATION THE OTHER NIGHT WHEN LISA R. WAS ON AND SHE WAS RAVING ABOUT THE LIP GLOSSES. WELL I OWN THE ONE SHE WAS REFERRING TO AND AS SHE WOULD SAY " LOVEEEEE THEM!!!" IF YOU WANT TO TRY THEM I SUGGEST THE "POUT/EVOKE".

I've used Smashbox for years, before it ever came on QVC, and while I don't use every single item in the entire line (I'm a makeup junkie and use all sorts of different brands), I do LOVE Smashbox. Just got the TSV today and it is a great one even though I do have the blush and shimmer already and the eye liners but what the heck! They are so innovative and always right on target with the colors that are in. And not only are the colors forgiveable and blendable, but they last for hours. So I hope that everyone who ordered it for the first time is happy with it and will go back and try more, like the foundations and the brushes which are THE BEST on the market. The seem pricey but they are well worth it. If you buy the full size set that QVC has for $100 (that includes a bottle of the brush cleaner) it's well worth it if you add up what the cost would be individually in the department stores. But a MUST HAVE is the Blush Brush No. 2, which can also be used for powder. It feels like mink and is totally decadent! The small travel kit of brushes that QVC has for $52 is a great buy, too (and that includes a small blush brush); I bought that at Nordstrom for $89! And I didn't even NEED it; just thought it was too cute to pass up!

Isn't SmashBox kind of a new line that started with Max Factor cosmetics? I used to use many MF products and liked them. In fact, I still use some of their products as I always thought they made fabulous makeup.

i also ordered the smashbox tsv.i am so mad at qvc. i sent a check since i am trying to pay my credit cards off.so i sent the check the next day or the day after and now they tell me that the item is back ordered.
did anyone see that episode of seinfeld where jerry tried to rent a car.he said i made a reservation,the woman said we ran out of compact cars.then jerry said but thats the point of making a reservation i reserved the car.so you know how to take the reservation but not hold the reservation which is the important part of the reservation.thats qvc.

jsp, you should look into getting a visa checkcard. It works just like a visa but it's really a debit card - the money comes out of your checking acct just like writing a check, but it's handier and faster. It's accepted everywhere that accepts visa - i sound like a visa commercial ! leila, max factors great grandsons founded smashbox.

I got the lip stain that was a this day only. It is horrible. Dries out your lips, doesn't stay on (Holly said wait about 60 seconds and it will dry) and made my lips tingle. That went right back. Holly also said that it won't come off on the clear lip gloss applicator - well it did! I like their other lip products, but that was horrible!
