As a teen, I would have described this quad as fugly. It looks like it's mixed with my make up and my mother's. Damn, that's awful. It's trash can ready.

I don't have anything yellow and I swapped away Satin Taupe, otherwise I would try somethng with these colors and see what happens. I am still betting that those colors in the promo pics are way off. Watch, we are all hating on it, and it will turn out to be one of the best quads MAC ever came out with

I love Satin Taupe - but I pair it with brights, like Aquadisiac or Pearl of the Earth (Trend Delights palette.)

Seriously though, YELLOW? *ick*

Yep, it maybe a huge hit. Anything is possible.

I love Satin Taupe. I can wear it anyday of the week. I love it especially with the other colors in the Smoking quad (Smoke Signals, fall '07). I already have two, but I think I want this quad...

The yellow is actually a frost, and is said to be quite bright, and the darkest shade is actually (as someone has mentioned) a pearled navy.

I personally don't care for the quad, but I've always heard people wanting a shimmery or frosty yellow as opposed to Chrome Yellow, so this can be an opportunity for people looking for an alternative to Chrome Yellow... although buying a whole quad for one color seems a bit excessive, but I'm sure other uses can be found for the colors even if they wont' use the colors together.

When I see the swatches , it seems like the 3 lighter colours almost look like the 3 eyeshadows in the Dress Camp palette

Sure you can make them work, it's just not a great combo. A green in place of Satin Taupe would have been better, imo. The yellow is gorgeous in person.
