OMG I am so disappointed that the MQ palettes contain only creams! And honestly the other collections aren't terribly appealing either =x

I had the magazines too. The packaging always looks delicious. Just not sure if the product works wonders too.

Hello- wondering whether you'd recommend MAQUIA or Biteki in terms of the seasonal little book collections they release? I had the spring biteki one and loved it- but wonder whether Maquia is any better? They are all shrinkwrapped here so I can never tell =/

=D Thanks!

Dear Wombat,

For the summer '09 collections, I preferred Biteki's feature over Maquia (Voce did not have one) as Biteki's was slightly more comprehensive whereas the Maquia tried to squeeze many brands onto a few pages.

Overall, I usually prefer Voce out of the 3 as Voce usually does a very comprehensive separate booklet (around half A4 size) that's a pleasure to flip through at leisure as each brand usually gets its own page (some even get 2 pages). But I think Voce does that only for the spring and fall collections.
