I'm in agreement with Elegant; the queen speaks truth! *bows*

What will cinch my decision to buy or not buy is how it wears on an oilier person. Do the MBs have better wear time than MAC's regular blushes? Those lasted a scant 4 hours on me, which is why I purged them from my stash. I don't need to have a blush last all day, just as long as a work day.

I wear them over a cream blush and I get at least 8 - 9 h of wear. Currently, I use the blushettes as a base for MB's as their colors are subtle enough to complement most MB's; also their slightly tacky texture makes them an ideal base for MB's to grab onto and hold well up on the skin.

for sure

You will like it as it is a redder version of Faux Gold. I passed on it as I couldn't find one with more pronounced veining but I will search for it again when I'm back in the States.

And there I was thinking that my list would shrink after more swatches. Not :shock: Subte Breeze and Early Morning MB, TF and Daylight MES. And the new brush. QueenOfSnark, I'd like to layer a BP under the MB, works very well for me w/o chaining the color too much, but I have dry skin as well.

I want Early Morning I just hope it's not orange in anyway on me. Orange does not work with my skintone at all. It is a coral shade right?

I was going to get A Perfect Day but I think it might be too milky for me and I ready have The Faerie Glen and Woo Me, and they are my fave nude lippys.

So I think I'll stick with Early Morning (hoping it won't be orange) Twilight Falls and Rich & Witty lipglass.

uhm I guess I have my list! but I'm still unsure about eyeshadows... but I have a month to think about it since this collection will launch in Feb. here.
Fresh Honey
Hot spell
A perfect day
Early morning (still have to see if I have something similar)
Cloudy Afternoon (maybe).. I like it because with a pen brush you can also use individual colors!
Twilight falls (maybe maybe maybe because I'd like to buy Naked 2 UD palette)

Early Morning is deeper and while not pure orange does lean more orange(more like sienna) than pink.

I cannot believe that I'm saying this...but nothing is really jumping at me. FH is just wayyyy too orange for my face. Tarina T has an awesome coral blush I have my eye on and I think it will look better on me. I'm so confused on the blushes though. T says they give a naturalflush but to me they look so bright. The mes look so pretty I might get a few. But for right now I'm passing. Me not wanting anything is such a strange feeling...whats going on!? LOL

After seeing T's (and Ernie's!) swatches and talking to MAC online, I'm down to Early Morning, Hot Spell, and maaaybe Pillow Talk. When I asked the MUA about how Pillow Talk compares to Touch, he said it was only slightly lighter than Touch and had a creamier finish. Everything else is much too light for my skin tone.

Ernie! Thanks for the swatches. I still want all the eyeshadows and blushes. I'm stuck on the lip products. I love the colors but I don't know if I can wear them. They may be too light for me. I'll probably get Hot Spell since I must own all shades of bronze.

Thanks for the swatches Ernie! I am definitely getting A Perfect Day. I can happily skip all of the lip glasses though, so that"s good! I kinda want In the Sun, but honestly I own so many colors like that. I love them and wear them a lot, but I should stop LOL!

The MB's blend like a dream... so I'm sure you could go for one (or two... hehee) and build it up to the desired "brightness." I thought they looked too bright at first too, but they wear so gorgeously! I wore EM today. So happy I didn't get scared off by the color in the pan.
