after those swatches i just saw i definitely need sakura! i'm not too sure about giggly now...it definitely looks dupable. & sally hanson makes a dupe for that mint nail polish. i'd never pay that much for a nail polish even if it is MAC.

Is it similiar to petticoat?
My order had just arrived and the blush is so cute *squeel*

I love it. The main pink colour reminds me alot of Well Dressed

Giggly is much more pigmented in real life, My camera doesn't pick up how bright the swatch is.


Pink part of Giggly L, WD right
When swatched side by side, Giggly def has a purply blue undertone and Well Dressed comes off as a barbie pink in comparison. They are very similar if you can avoid the middle heart which will change the colour

I just tried Giggly on over my makeup and it is so pretty and crazy pigmented, I had to buff it away to make it wearable. Well worth waiting all this time to order from a Mac collection.

I'm sticking to Sakura, the quad, and little girl type. No lip products for me

It still kills me to pay 14$ for a nail polish tho! But I can't resist little girl type

Is it predicted that In Synch and Naked liners will sell out quickly? Sorry if this is a repetitive question, but will the liners be permanent in the US?
the liners will be perm everywhere now so no stresses on those! i think candy yum yum and the blushers will go first.

No not at all, Petticoat is nothing alike.


Hang Loose, Two Virtues, Well Dressed, Azalea Blossom, Giggly, Petticoat.

Petticoat, Azalea Blossom, Giggly

I have found by swatching all my blushes that the pink side of Azalea Blossom is identical to the pink side of Giggly and Two virtues mixed is the same as the heart.

Two Virtues, Giggly heart

I think i might try play time instead of playing koi. i'm flip flopping here. :p

So far I just have miss behave, mischievous and i <3 you on the list. not too much, therefore MAC should put up the collection already(for us non pro card people), tee hee!

Hi guys,


Sorry I'm so tardy with this pics. I used the whole quad and both Giggly plus Miss Behave as a highlight. Here's a few pics to see the look. I love love love the quad :) Its so spring and pretty, I did layer a little but not too heavily as I think a spring look should be light. I'll pop some swatches in the swatch section and I'll put a full FOTD in the FOTD section with a full list of products used. But just to give some idea, here goes (pic heavy) :)












I love the look you created!! And you were right, Giggly looks perfect for spring & summer! Thanks for the pics, you look beautiful =)

Thank you! I'm trying to cut down on my haul as much as I can bare to, because I'm traveling to see Lady Gaga next week

I think my list is now just:
- Candy Yum Yum
- Quite Cute
- Sakura

Still can't decide if I want Playing Koi or Miss Behave so I'll probably wait and maybe buy those later if they don't sell out in an instant.

Aw thanks ladies, I'd be liking all of your posts but for some reason my iPad takes me to the export a wiki page when I try to like stuff!?! Not sure why! Thanks so much for your kind comments, I really liked this look and my hubby noticed it too - he never comments on make up but told me how 'cute and fresh' my make up appeared which is no bed thing. Everything applied really well too no powdery or chalky feeling here and it's last really well, still on now around 6 hours or so later. I'll put full info up when I post in the FOTD section just in case anyone wants to recreate it :) and there will be pics and swatches - just need to get on my lappy. Overall, I'm really really pleased! Urban, giggly is such a summery blush and will look gorgeous on you! ;)

[/quote] IMHO I went with Giggly because even though Sakura was more 'unique' I feared it would not be a spring/summer colour and in strong sunlight it would appear purply or ashy. I got Giggly as it seemed more versatile and whilst it's a pink blush... I do think when it's mixed and with it's subtle shimmer, it's a pink worth owning! Also, the quad is lovely, I found it comparable to other mac eyeshadows and it's such a shame it's getting bad press for being a little sheer - surely it should be light? They are pastels after all. Not sure if this helps? Lol

[quote name="Ahoyitslivvy" url="/forum/thread/173299/mac-quite-cute-discussion/1770#post_2100844"]MrsB- Is giggly noticeably shimmery?
[/quote] It has a subtle shimmer..well actually it's more of a sheen and it's not actually noticeable unless I was looking very closely at my cheeks..adds more of a lil glow to me and I certainly couldn't pick it up on any of the pics I took?
