OK, I got the new Smashbox TSV and haven't tried it on my face, but here is my review of the products swatched on my hand.

Eyeshadows: What happened to Smashbox's quality? Their shadows were so pigmented and creamy, but these shadows seem powdery and not very pigmented. Disappointed in the shadows. Maybe because they are made in China? Felt that the shadows in the last Tarte TSV were of the same sub-par quality and they were made in China too.

The primer is the usual Smashbox primer

The concealer runs dark I think, and very yellow. I got both the fair and light kit. This is reviewing the light kit (haven't received the fair yet). I think light might be too dark for me, but it is pretty good coverage.

The shadow liner I think is going to be good. I will have to review more after I apply it on my eyes, but after 3 hand washings, it is still on my hand. The color is a charcoal with sparkles.

The soft focus will be more of a highlighter than blush I think.

Hope this helps!
