Ahhh, I wish I was going to Hawaii this week instead of next month. Haha, can you imagine the look on my group's face if the first thing I wanted to do when we land is search for f/s stores?
Lol! Well, you won't have to look far. There are only two f/s MAC stores here. Which one are you interested in?

Probably Vintage Grape, b/c I passed on it earlier this year. But it's one of those "if I see it somewhere, I'll buy it situations". I won't be heartbroken if I don't own it, especially w/ all the upcoming collections. I will be trying AB w/ FoJ this week though.

I love love loooooooooove Modern Mandarin blush... I think I'm either going to return Peony Petal or give it to my little sister who's in the NC family..... It's way too blue-based... Or maybe I'm just too warm. LOL. Either way, I'm not pleased. Azaela blush is a pink with blue tones in it but it looks cute on my cheeks... I'm gonna give PP one more chance, but I'm not feeling too confident.
when i picked up PP and lovecloud, the sales assistant at the pro store was wearing PP with lightscapade buffed into/over it...it kind of transformed the colour....it was still blue based of course, but it looked more like magenta blush than the pink that is pp....

I have this thing about layering blushes ... it's just not for me! Sounds like a cute combo though. I haven't given up on PP yet. Still gonna give it one or two more tries before finally giving it away or sending it back to mac pro. I have a couple blue based blushes and Azaela damn near has more blue undetones in it than PP. IDK... we shall see!

Did you get all 6 blushes? You're our blush queen. LOL I'm glad you love Lovecloud. :amused: I love the blushes I got from this collection, too! I got Full of Joy, Lovecloud, and Peony Petal. They're seriously great. I'm in pink heaven!  :eyelove:

Hoppin on the Lovecloud love! It's def the one I reach for the most. It's so awesome! I have been thinking bout BU's but with my paleness I dont have to use much.

I have been trying to decide between MM or Fleet Fast. I'm super pale. What would you suggest?

Per sister-in-law, they have two Azalea Blossoms and one Vintage Grape still in stock at one of the stores. Just thinking of Azalea Blossom with Full of Joy.... I think I may have to go pay the store a visit.

I feel like the only person not on the FoJ band wagon. I compared it with my Sakura MB from Quite Cute, one on each cheek, while I was in the store, and Sakura was just so much nicer on my NC15 skin, that I didn't bother getting FoJ. I just found it looked too flat and powdery on my dry skin.

I have zero skipper's remorse, especially since that violet color from Casual Colour is way more gorgeous, purpler, wearable and multi-purpose. That's the single most salivated over product for me until Heavenly Creature. Plus, we're also going to see a basically purple MB with Heavenly Creature and my guess is there'll be more purple, plum, violet, lavender and lilac blushes going forward from MAC, since it's fast becoming THE makeup brand for Purple Lovers!

I like FoJ as a highlight. I don't think it would work well as a straight up blush for me. I skipped Sakura, so I can understand why you didn't get FoJ if you have that.

I am also super excited for the CC purple!!! I think I will get more use out of FoJ pairing it with that!

I CP'd for Pink Tea in pan from a lovely Specktra member that is part of the Asia Pacific and I cannot wait to get it! I am now done with this collection!

I bet FoJ could be layered over Pink Tea to get a dupe for Pink Cult. Just saying...Not that anyone who missed it the first time didn't get it (or a BU) the 2nd time, but it never hurts to be prepared...and clearly, I am obsessed with Pink Cult

Thank God, I gave Peony Petal another try and it worked! I guess the third time is really a charm, because it looked so pretty on my cheeks. I didn't have to combine it with any blushes, because I hate doing that! Peony Petal doesn't photograph well on my skin, but I don't care. It looks good on me in person so I'll take that. Now, I kinda want Lovecloud and FoJ... I know I'm late on these, but they're still on the site so I'm debating. haha

I'm so glad PP worked out for you! It's such a pretty blush!
