That's not too small, but a good selection. Enjoy your products!
Thanks love. They just this minute arrived so I'm about to go rip open packages to explore my veining, pics/opinions to follow and I must start up some new FOTDs ;)

I just got my little black box from this collection. I only picked up A Perfect Day and Beach Sand. I LOVE nude lippies or really bright ones :) I wore Beach Sand yesterday with Stripdown pencil and it was soooo pretty!

I hauled big today, but I love absolutely everything :) My favourite of the eyeshadows are Daylight and Cloudy Afternoon, and I'm loving applying the MES all over the lid with the 235 and then blending out with the 286 brush! I ended up only spending £107 instead of £169 by using a 10% off voucher, a £30 giftcard and £15 of points

I hope everyone else enjoys their Naturally picks too!

They're both beautiful and so pigmented!

I abolsutely adore Twilight Falls, I just did a quick look with it...it has the most amazing green/blue shimmer which steps it up from an average brown. I can't capture it but tis gorgeous. I was hoping for product pics and a FOTD but my lighting is terrible...damn you energy saving bulbs. I snapped a few pics of a look I did but I only post two...I'm just getting to grips with the iPad photo bucket and I can't figure out how to tell what size my pics are, so apologies if they're huge!

I think it's a lovely day time look or a casual date look....I love how smooth and pigmented these mineral products are :)

I manage to order the first product I ever want it from Mac: Redhead. House of Fraser UK has some products from the collection online, but not all. They will arrive to Romania in 11th of January, but I think I can wait :)

Thank you, I felt like a change :) Perfect day is gorgeous! It's so creamy and opaque, I love how it isn't an 'orangey' nude too...I find a lot of macs nudes have a yellow/orangey tone on my lips!

When i swatched it to today it seemed to lean more pink, but was sadly still so nude on me that I looked dead :(

I know exactly what you mean! I can't wear a lot of nudes with my skin tone being quite pale, things like MAC Myth are awful on me. There's still something telling me to go for sweet sunrise but I know it would look dreadful on me!

I only bought Redhead from this collection as well as Vegas Volt lipstick to get free P&P - it's so silly to spend an extra £13.50 in order to 'save' £2.95 but I really wanted the lipstick so I guess it's okay. I was tempted to get one of the mineralised blushes but couldn't decide which one and sort of baulked at the price.

A few have said A Perfect Day lipstick is out of stock but it appears to be back.

I just got my Naturally - Round 2 haul in last night - Daylight MES, Cloudy Afternoon MES and A Perfect Day l/s.

I LOVE Cloudy Afternoon - it reminds me of Vex without the pink duochrome and with a tinge more green. I'm wearing it today over Soft Ochre paint pot, with black mascara and liner.

I haven't tried a full look with Daylight yet but the swatch seemed a bit more pink than I was expecting. The veining seems good, there's a good amount of purple in it.

APD has a great texture and coverage, but is a little too putty-like for me on - just slightly too pinky plasticky. Hard to explain. I'm also not used to myself wearing a nude lip so it may be a bit of that too. I'm dark (dark hair, blue eyes, NC25) with very pigmented lips so much lighter lips isn't what I'm familiar with. The amplified consistency is fabulous, though.

I got my haul! Thought so far:

A Perfect Day - I love it! It's opaque, creamy, and pink enough that it doesn't wash me out too much. I wore it yesterday with a simple smokey eye using Golden Gaze MES and one of my colleagues told me I looked "stunning"

So yeah - instant love. Thinking about backing it up but I'm not sure - I have many nude lipsticks and there's always something new just around the corner so I'm trying to resist BUs at the moment.

Early Morning - tried it on briefly at home last night. Wow - people weren't kidding about the texture and pigmentation! I barely had to touch my 187 to the blush at all. It blended out nicely. Not sure about the colour yet - I'll have to try it as part of a look.

Cloudy Afternoon - I've only swatched this so far but it looks interesting. It seems to be a silver but with...something. Looking forward to trying it but I'm not sure what to pair it with - any ideas?

Daylight - I'm really like this and it does seem different from anything else I own. I thought it might have been similar to Circa Plum but it's pinker, less purple and without the silvery touch that CP has. I'd describe it as a lavender-pink, although the veining in mine is such that I think I could make it pull more purple if I wanted to. I'm wearing it today with Magnetic Fields in the crease, Vanilla and Phloof to highlight, with Dipdown Fluidline and it looks simple and pretty.

Dalliance from Peacocky comes to mind...
