You know I went and got this yesterday, right? So, here's my take. The green, Happy, is much softer and paler than the green in Big Bright & Bold (limelight), the "vanilla mint" description is very good. It's really pretty and not as limey as limelight, nowhere near as bold.

The purple (Wowza) is a bit darker and more concord grape than the purple (vivid) in Big Bright & Bold. The difference is subtle, swatched on the hand I could barely tell them apart. In sunlight the Wowza is as I said, a bit darker, and maybe a denser color? than vivid. Vivid is a bit brighter, but I really had to look to find differences.

I already had the Indigo pencil, and love it. It's very inky like dark indigo jeans.

I put too much of the purple on and didn't like it, so rather than wash it off and start over, I layered the green over it, and that worked well. It softened the purple, and gave it a bit of a glow.

The Chuckle blush is a soft pink, very wearable. I didn't open the lipgloss because I have way too many open already, but it's a soft pink as well.

I hope this makes sense! Describing colors is hard!
