I have swatches up also :)

This collection is killing me. I loooove it!

The eyeshadows are to die for.

The blushes are the best mineral blushes I have ever seen from MAC.

I am not a fan of the MSF though. Rose Quartz is quite glittery and chunky imo.

Gem of roses is just... om my goooood!


Nice swatches. You make me reconsider Feeling Flush. Your Rose Quartz does look glittery - almost gritty, but the center circle is also quite big. Maybe that's why it's more glittery?

Maybe. But I am not a fan of the outer circle either. It's quite dusty and crumply IMO. There's SO much to spend your money on in this collection. They shadows, blushes, lip stuff and supposedly the brushes are amazing. Save the money for that is my advice :)

I loooove feeeling flush!

Yes, the swatch looks like the product is just sitting on top of your skin rather than blending in. I'm glad you are heaving fun with Feeling Flush. It looks very pretty.

I've just realised all the Mineralize Blushes I have are frosts. Maybe there is room in my collection for Feeling Flush and Warmth Of Coral after all? My bank account will not be happy about this

Now I am tempted to get one of the mineralize blushes. I actually wanted to pass on them.

I will be in NYC on Friday and want to stop by at the pro store. Does anyone know if I can pre-order over the phone and then pick it up on Friday? I am also not a pro member.

There are conflicting reports that some customers (non-pro members) didn't get into the store because they were asked to show their pro card. The store is also on the 7th floor of the building so they couldn;t even go up there. Here is San Francisco and Los Angeles, pro stores are also open to the public.

Lucky! oh just a little tip if you use fuel perks from giant eagle or another type of gas grocery store saver thing. Just buy the gc's right before going, that way you can justify your spending a little more saying you're helping pay for gas (that's what i tell myself)

The store here in Nashville is a pro store. It was just a regular one and then about 2 yrs ago they made it a pro with all the stuff. But they never launch collections early. It is the only store I think in TN. ihave 2 counters close to me also.

So are you guys saying that these other pro stores are not open to the public at all or just for early launch days? sorry if this is a stupid question.

It's out at counters and stores the 7th. and one week earlier at Pro stores.
Clarity is much more of a no-brainer than Unsurpassable - you'd have to like green and periwinkle blue to love Unsurpassable, but Clarity you just have to love opalescent sparkles!
i wish it will be out on the 7th. unfortunately, i live on the other side of the world (Singapore). So I'll have to wait quite awhile. What I did was have a CP done for the MSFs, MB, and Golden Glaze mes.

Clarity, I'll pick up from here so that I cant find swatch it first. I'll also buy the lip products I want then. This way, I don't pay so much all at once. I know at the end of the day it does not make a difference, but somehow it makes me feel better about splurging. Haha.

I didn't even know the MAC Pro Store in Greenhills Mall,TN was pro until I called last week. It doesn't show up as a pro store on the MAC website. That or I did my search wrong.
