The quad is cuter than I though, BUT not worth my $$ overall. I like the Azuki Bean shadow though.

Azuki Bean does look nice but I think I'm gonna skip the quad still. I'm thinking my standards are low enough for the blushes though. I still want two of them.

I was debating the quad but now it looks like there's going to be a new Urban Decay palette and my Sephora had a couple Book of Shadows 3 left so I may check that out instead.

is it the new palette mentioned on temptalia? im wondering what palette tt is.. i may get an UD or TF palette in favour of this palette as it looks disappointing..

yeah it's the palette on temptalia. she just did a review on it. I think i'll be able to do more looks with it, but I already have the Naked palette.

I was just hired as a MAC Freelancer and I'm eagerly awaiting the paperwork to go through so I can get my employee ID number already...but I'm so excited for this collection!! I want so much stuff. I haven't been this excited for a MAC collection in a really long time and I want to haul, haul, haul to celebrate my new job :)

How crazy would I be if I still order Sakura blush, Boldly Bare lipliner, and I <3 U plushglass on the day they're released, even if I don't have my discount card yet? I just don't want them to sell out, but you know like the day after I order I'll get the call that my paperwork went through. I think I'm the only one hoping that this doesn't go up online too early!

Okay, so I cancelled my appt for the lil "party" MAC is having for this collection. The only thing I'm gonna look @ is Play Time L/s, hopefully it isn't sheer. I cancelled my appt so I won't be "stuck into buying $50 worth if products. Imma use that $50 to buy an Inglot eyeshadow palette... lol

I got to see the collection today! Omg everything is soooooo cute! Quite cute! hehe ;)


I have to say, I really like the quad! I didn't find it hard to swatch at all (I wish I had taken pics!). I am really excited about it. It is beautiful in person!

The blushes.... awesome! I really love them a lot. They are very pigmented. And that green in the middle, might make for a good highlight color on the cheeks. It's got a beautiful, almost white, shimmer.

The bright pink lippie def looks almost neon. Very bright! Beautiful still! That's a for sure on my list.

Nail polishes are adorable! I'm a nail polish fiend though, so I may be biased! lol.

The lip liners are very nice, and will be permanent, so yay!

Only thing I didn't swatch was the glosses =(


Sorry I am forgetting the names of everything lovelies! lol. It's been a long day.


Overall, I'm still excited! Everything is rather lovely! =)


Oh and for reference I am NC35-NC37.

Playtime does have some pigmentation, quite cute is the sheerest of the bunch. But def swatch them for yourself love. There is nothing like seeing something in person ;)

Yet other sites have really dark, underexposed lighting, so that's bad too. I guess really bright is better than too dark.
I hate to complain, I love reading early reviews and seeing swathes to get an idea before shopping, Who has the best lighting do you think? Probably Karla...
I agree that Karla has the best lighting! But I could be biased, because she's also in North Texas, so that lighting is the lighting I'm actually in all the time! :D

Now that I think about it, this could be why I don't find such bright artificial lighting to be useful for swatches -- I'm rarely in that kind of lighting. I don't work in an environment with fluorescent lighting, and even the malls here have lots of outdoor lighting. Plus the sun is always out here in Texas, so I'm in natural light most often.

Having said that, I'm have to admit that this collection would likely be a complete pass for me even if the products were amazing. Pastels just don't play nicely with my very warm collection, even in clothing. Spring things are quite often a big pass -- I rarely by "spring" clothes, either, because the colors just don't work.

Looks like fun to those who love pastels, though!

I am not too excited about most of the collections coming up but I will definitely get Playtime & Sakura. I am not sure about CYY. I adore bright bold colours but that might just be a bit too much. Then again I do sometimes wear bright pink eyeshadow so maybe I can make it work.

Congratulations!!

Remember, Boldly Bare is going to be Perm. So wait for that one.
I don't see the plushglasses selling out either - I'm most worried about the blushes going because they are so cute :)

Wait, is this collection going up online this week or next? I thought it was next week, but people are talking like it's happening earlier. We're antsy even if it's not a stellar collection, aren't we? True addicts. I'll go ahead and get Candy Yum Yum and Boldly Bare liner. I think that's all. The other colors either bore me or just seem way outside of what I can pull off on my skin.
