I am so looking forward to this collection coming out on Thursday. Thank you to everyone for your reviews as it really helps me with my list!

Aww,thanks Katie!

Yeah,I had a wicked great birthday,I went to see Poison and Def Leppard

Sooo much fun,my SO bought tickets for my bday,he's a sweetheart

To only1angel-- Sounds like something I would do, coerce my husband to go on a certain day b/c mac is launching a new collection!

I am lemming soo much from this damn collection! But I need to slow my roll, as I've mentioned many times before, my makeup is swallowing me alive, there's so much of it laying around! It's so disorganized too...grr..

I'm still thinking about Colour Crafted-not sure if it's something that'll get a lot of use but it looks pretty. I think I want 1 MB, but I can't decide btwn fad-dabulous and improvise. And of course, Cheeky Bronze is still calling my name, but I feel like even though the colors are a little different, with like 20 MSFs, a slight variation in color is not going to matter a lot so I don't know if I need anymore....

I am glad to hear that you had a good Birthday Jessica!

I really wanted colour crafted lipstick but after I heard that it was frost city I decided against it. I was really looking for a close dupe to Aloof lipstick. I can't wait for trimming talk lipstick. I bet that would look awesome with Ms Fizz or another hot pink dazzleglass.

To Porcelain Pink, or to not Porcelain Pink? Hmm...

OMG I feel the same way. I love collecting MSF's but I have soooooo many most of them look brand new even with regular rotation and almost daily use. Fak. I am lemming Smooth Merge (but Petticoat is a good dupe) and Triple Fusion (I know I can dupe this one).

Plus I'm running out of room to store everything. What to do!

I know everyone loves this one but to me its kinda boring compared to all the other MSF's out there. Is it worth getting? and will PP even show up on NC30?

That's awesome?!?! She actually ships it to you? What counter to you go to?

i thought macys wont let employee discount to be used on cosmetics and fragrances... do they?

 

[maketotheup]

? for you ladies that have seen it.

What 2 msfs do you think are the must haves? I'm pretty pale if that helps. I just need to stick with my budget!

the brush is ringing up $40, the glosses $17.50, the shadows$19.50, and the blushes $21 at my counter.

SM has a completely different finish than PP, and a different colour, so the answer is no.

it isn't similar at all to either.

I order from the Mac at Mall of America.

I have seen this collection and i LOVE it!

I got Porcelin pink, Smooth merge
and Cheeky bronze msf (<---must have

)

I passed on the 2 pink blushes but i got the other 4. They were so pretty and they showed up on my skin. These aren't glittery, they leave a lovely sheen/highlight instead. I loved how glowy my cheeks looked when i looked in the mirror.

Lipsticks aren't unique so i passed on them.

 

[versace]

could someone please help me.
i wonder if smooth merge is going to show on me,im not dark at all (stila 60 watts is a bit too dark for me ) but well dressed doesnt show on me

and how does sunny by nature compare to sunbasque?is it more or less orange?

thank you soooooooo much

LOLOL same here i really dont need some of their stuff but i had this collector side of me attack, so ya i failed and i just clicked the submit button to order the 131 brush and some blushes and eyeshadows.

 

[LMD84]

the collection is up on the uk site now. i just got cheeky bronze, smooth merge and the purpley gloss - ecentric edge or something... i like the colour just can't remember the name!!

i'm hoping hubby will treat me to the 226 brush and maybe even the 131 - i'll treat him well tonight and see what i get!
