Thank you to everyone who posted swatches - now I'll be able to leap the second they come online in Canada!

Updated list:

Red Racer
Sail la Vie
Fleet Fast
Shore Leave
Throw Me a Line
167SH

I don't want to order a bronzer without seeing it; hopefully I can wait and see what they look like on me before ordering. I want a natural sun-kissed look but don't know if Sun Dipped will be too light/Soft Sand too dark for me.

I'm very tempted by Send Me Sailing as well, but I just started Double Dare and don't want to end up having to toss both out because they've gotten gloppy. I'll wear less gloss in the fall/winter.

Decisions, decisions!

If you hurry up, you might finish DD by the end of May and then enjoy SMS :)

I'm curious to see more swatches of Launch Away. I scratched it off my list based on how close it looked to Immortal Flower in the pan (since I passed on IF too) so I can't believe how different they look on skin!

I just opened it yesterday because I wanted a summer red that wasn't heavy/matte (looks great with just the faintest hint of Red Enriched liner). I don't think I'll get through it that fast - I'm on a coral kick right now. I'm new to buying MAC LGs; how long do they last before thickening/changing odor/taste, etc? I've been buying the lipstick for eons so I know how stable it is; I'm trying to avoid buying too many of a shorter life product and wasting them. My stash is small by the standards of most here; I just have fun with my own little treasure chest.

I'm waiting to see Send Me Sailing lip swatches before deciding; then I'll have a better sense of how close they colours are (or aren't). :)

Wondering if the p/b from Hey Sailor are anything like the lovely texture of the blush from Tres Cheek??? If so, I may need Fleet fast. I need to narrow my list really to save for Heavenly Critters tho.

Launch Away seems very similar texture wise to Immortal Flower and Lovecloud (those are only TC blushes I have so far). It seems to be a bit more powdery when picking up the product, but applied on the skin they're very much alike.

I would say LA is lighter, like a muted version of LC. LC is a more intense pink colour.

Thanks! Ehh.. I think I'll be crossing LA off my list. Yay, for saving money! Lol. I'll definitely get Fleet Fast, Jaunty, Barefoot, and 167SH.

Hope they help. I thought Red Racer would be very dupeable in my hoard of red lipsticks, but it is not. On me it is really very neutral and very bright, unlike Russian Red. Nikous swatch of it is very good and close to color. Thanks for posting! Here are some comparisons with Jaunty.
