I wish the pictures did it more justice! Soooo gorgeous, and not at all overwhelming on pale skin. The blushes seem to be gorgeous on everyone - pick them up at your local counters if you can! (Especially since everyone's been having such bad luck with shipping!)
JennsJewelz , I think you should be a makeup artist!! your looks are always beautiful... Did you use just one side of the blush or did you mix the two colours together?
I picked up my pre-order last night and was surprised that both MSF and colored mascaras were already sold out. Yes, Pink Power MSF, Spitfire l/s and MA blush are my favorite items. Didn't expect to like Spitfire so much.
However, there really must have been something wrong with either the shipping method or MSF/blush production. Thanks to all of you, I checked if MSF and blushes were not broken BUT I did notice that all of them had tiny cracks and dents in them. I am ok with it but was it the bad weather on the East Coast or production flaw that brought up bad batches?
I would definitely recommend that you check all MSF and blushes before you leave the counter.

I tried WW and AK lipglass and they looked horrid on me. However I can see why everyone loves the formula. So smooth and silky. SI is a big winner for me though but since I ordered that online I will wait. I laughed outloud when I got to the counter and saw how big they were.
I've mentioned before my little boy is so excited his mom has WW makeup. Well I was trying on the lipglass (at the counter they looked fine but after some wear and then getting home not so much) and said I was going to return them he was so sad. "Mommy you don't like Wonder Woman lipstick?" I had to tell him that I was getting a different color and would still have WW lipstick. I believe he thinks I'm going to turn into WW when I wear the makeup.

We only have one MAC counter where I live so I should be surprised how much was sold out yesterday. But seriously I went after work yesterday and by the time I got there at 5:30 half the collection was sold out. Marquise d' was sold out so I opted for Sandy B from the permanent collection (the swatches looked pretty darn close), and I also got Spitfire (wore it to today and I love it!
). I was debating on getting Wonder Woman l/g, but I just couldn't handle all the gloss that comes gushing out when you pull out the wand (total product waste
). So that's it Spitfire was the only thing I got.
It feels totally weird only getting one thing from a MAC collection, I feel like I'm breaking some sort of make up loving rule.

Elegant, has your replacement arrived yet? Enjoy your goodies! Did you happen to take a picture of them? I always love your photographs.
Ladies, any thoughts on Amazon Princess blush? I've been thinking about it. Oh boy, I'm so weak!

That is just too cute about your little boy, made my morning reading that. Enjoy him while he's little. They have this bad habit of growing up and way too fast. You'll probably need medication during the teen years

Ben Nye's Lumiere shadow in Azalea looks very similar. I don't have it or Bright Fuchsia, but i have swatched them both. On youtube lots of people say that they are the same colour!I really liked bright fuchsia pigment but I've read it's not eye safeis there something like it?

How does one or two or three work some where and do not know what they sell even if it's a limited edition collection? Anyway, I went to take back the makeup bag, MA, and Marquise d', but came home with Pink Power and Emancipation. Swatched up Pink Power with all the MSFs I have and came to the conclusion that it looks similar to Redhead and I like redhead so PP is going back which is awesome because I was contemplating giving back Golden Lariat to have PP, but I have nothing that looks like GL so to me it's unique and I love it. I just have to be careful with the middle color because it's a bit orange-y.
Emancipation and Athena's Kiss are BEAUTIFUL, but I went with Emancipation and I love it. I like that the wand is big so I only need to go in once for product to apply. I'm very careful with taking the wand out so no splashes have occured yet. So glad I got it!

Yes, the middle of GL is a lil orangey but if you apply it with a light hand and blend well, I think it'll be just fine....at least that's what I plan to do

Hrm...I don't think I'm loving Secret Identity gloss now as much as I did in the store. Don't get me wrong, it's pretty, but I don't really see it on my lips as much when I wear it alone. I'll give it a few more tries, but I have a feeling that I'm going to swap or return it.
Wonder Woman, however, it quite adorable even when worn alone. I tried it over Dubonet and Media and it was seductively gorgeous. I think I can do without Russian Red so I might return that without opening it.

Oh no doubt! I am willing to work with all of that product. I like it over PP. This is a different type of highlighter and powder for me and that's a good thing.
Went to check out MA blush last night. Had the mua apply it because I'm pretty pale (NC20 and blonde) and I wanted to see it on before bringing it home. Ok, this baby is HIGHLY pigmented, very bright and incredibly gorgeous!. She applied the darker shade lightly to the apples of my cheeks only, then the lighter shade all along the cheekbone and over the other color. She buffed it out a bit with some loose powder. It was more color than I'm used to, but its so pretty. I did it myself this morning the same way she did it, and even with the lightest touch I got vibrant color. On me, its one of those blushes that I will always pair with a neutral eye and lip. I love the look after its buffed out with a bit of translucent powder. I've had it on almost 4 hours now and it hasn't faded at all. I have alot of coral blushes, but none of them have this vibrant, fresh-look finish to them. I won't need a back up because of how little gets used each time. I'm going to enjoy this one for a long, long time.
