My MSF collection has grown immensely since I first started posting!! I now own:

MSFN in Deep Dark (I think this one causes me to break out )
Warmed
Light Flush
Petticoat (1st release)
Stereo Rose (1st release)
Warm Blend
Gold Deposit
So Ceylon
Soft and Gentle
Refined
Perfect Topping
Blonde
Redhead
Brunette
Cheeky Bronze
Soft and Gentle

...and I plan on going to purchase By Candlelight soon

My favorite is still Warmed, which is the first one I ever bought. The only other one that I'm lemming for is of course Metal Rock

I bought Petticoat and Stereo Rose. I bought By Candlelight from Warm & Cozy in January and skipped Comfort as I have Sunny By Nature from last summer's Colour Craft.

I need to do a blog post on Petticoat - it's love!

 

[reesesilverstar]

Isn't it tho? Petticoat is so pretty. I don't know why some WOC slam it.

Right now my loves are So Ceylon and Stereo Rose with some Cheeky Bronze thrown in at night.

Thank you. I hope most are repromoted soon or my local CCO will get them.

I am NW45 for reference, and I have several MSF's but these are my absolute favorites:

Comfort-when you want a subtle glow
By Candlelight-Pretty Highlight when applying with a light hand with an 188
Warmed-Gives a Nice Glow (very similiar to Comfort)
Warm Blend-Give a Nice Glow
Petticoat-Pretty layered over berry colored blushes
Stereo Rose-Pretty over more orange/coral blushes

By Candlelight is sooooo awesome for a pinky highlight shade.

I also like Soft and Gentle for a more goldish highlight.

If anyone's looking for a Metal Rock MSF, please pm me, I have one that I've just bought but it's too dark for me. I'll sell it for a lot less than eBay prices. Thanks.

I'm NC40 and just recently got into MSFs.

By Candlelight is my favorite for highlighting. I actually prefer it over Soft and Gentle and Shimpagne. My particular Soft and Gentle has thicker chunks of glitter in it, which makes me not like it too much. Does anyone with Soft and Gentle have that problem?

I like Comfort because it gives me a nice glow. So pretty!

I have Petticoat and Stereo Rose, and I prefer Petticoat over Stereo Rose. I notice others have said to layer it over other blushes....I need to try that!

Has anyone gotten through an entire MSF? If I ever do, I will feel SO accomplished =)

 

[Fiberluver]

I haven't used an entire MSF yet. I just keep collecting them! My "newest" purchase is Glissade and I really like that one.

I only wish I had begun collecting them in the beginning because I love them so much.

I have made serious dents in:

Petticoat (I gave the one I was using to my niece and opened my back-up
Gold Deposit (same as above except I gave it to my sister - but I had a back-up!)
Brunette
Sunny By Nature
So Ceylon
Warm Blend

I rotate through the highlighters and they all still have their domed shape.

MSFs are addictive.

I hope MAC will release new ones before next July!!!

i do that all the time. i love putting by candlelight over ANY blush! when i'm doing a bronzed look i like putting on refined or comfort (lightly) over whatever blush/bronzer i'm using that day. msf adds sooo much glow! perfect if you love the dewy look!

I like Petticoat over the matte blushes I use to add some shimmers. Brunette is another favourite.

 

[bluebird08]

I <3 Metal Rock, So Ceylon and Petticoat...

 

[sapnap]

I was in a major MSF collecting mode, realised that I dont even use most of em so I sold/swapped:

Warm Blend- really pretty but the glitter was horrendous;
Smooth Merge- Glitter was horrendous
Cheeky Bronze- Glitter was horrendous
Refined- can achieve the nice highlighter look with products that are much cheaper or with NARS Albatross thats way nicer. It also looks "light" on my skin

The ones I have now:

Sunny By Nature- MY LOVE
Brunette MSF- very pretty as blush
So Ceylon- pretty, but I have a cheaper dupe so contemplating selling it... still very everyday wearable
Stereo Rose- pretty.. esp with Fix Plus /Water and over Ambering Rose/Peach blushes
By Candlelight- looks nice, but it seems too frosty on the skin as well, not sure how to use it
Perfect Topping- Looks nice over Vintage Grape blush Ombre, maybe I can achieve it with some other highlighter as well
Warmed- a great skin "warming" MSF for WOC.. but a bit onthe gold side
Metal Rock- awesomes personified for WOC. Its a crime MAC isnt re releasing it and making truck loads of it so that all of us can experience it.
Petticoat- I always wanna swap this awa cos its metallicy, but when I wear it, so pretty!
The only other MSF i wanna get is Comfort...

i´m nc 25 and are my favorites too!

 

[reesesilverstar]

I just need 4 more and I'll be done:

Warmed, Comfort, Warm Blend and Metal Rock. Everytime I see swatches I'm sad I don't ever pick them up when they're available... tsk!

 

[dopista]

I only have 4 MSFs and from the past MSF releases I like every other WOC want to see what the fuss is about Metal Rock.

For now I have a tiny MSF collection:
a pink/rasberry one - Petticoat
a highlighter MSF - Refined
a coral MSF- Stereo Rose
a bronze MSF - So Ceylon

 

[aziajs]

I used to be so obsessed with MSFs but I'm over it. The last one I bought was probably Gold Spill or Northern Light, which was 3 years ago. I just realized that I never use them and they are too glittery and shimmery for the most part. I do really like Metal Rock, Lightscapade, and Naked You. All three are very different and serve a different purpose.

 

[Aijuswhanakno]

I like Glissade a lot, even though sometimes I tire of it's glitteriness.

 

[Fiberluver]

I've been collecting msf's for about 2 years or so and I haven't tired of them.

I make sure I use one every day. Sometimes, depending on the look I will use 2 or three.

I figure msfs are like lipsticks - you can never have too many or too few! They all serve a different purpose and will give you a different look!
