Everyone who has posted pictures of things they've ordered have gotten great swirls - I don't think you have to worry too much :)

Yeah, I'm betting on Star Wonder and maybe Venus. It might take awhile though. My counter still had lots of everything left and I think I bought the first Light Year :eek:

I ended up with Light Year, Venus and Fire Sign to keep Star Wonder company haha. I wasn't going to get Fire Sign, but it really IS like VG Cyndi with less coral in it, and VG Cyndi was my favourite lipstick until it melted :'( I skipped Ring of Saturn because it is like a slightly more orange version of NARS Orgasm on me and I like Orgasm better.

I'm totally satisfied with what I got! I think this is my biggest haul from one collection ever... I know it's only 4 items but I usually only get 1 or 2.

I knew I loved Venus, but didn't realize how much until my BF pointed out that I spent the entire drive to dinner last night admiring my lips (sideview mirror, pocket mirror and passenger side mirror)! Haha, I didn't even notice I was doing it...I promise, I'm not that vain! Venus is just so pretty, I couldn't help but look at it!

Obviously, I bought a BU after dinner. Hahaha.

I like it a lot, but I don't need a back up. I think it's more of a highlighter on me than a blush.

MTE... Don't think it's perm. Temptalia said she asked MAC herself and they said no.


Sad to hear you don't like it so much. :( I think that's the exact reason I like it so much.

Ugh I have to go back to the MAC store because they gave me the wrong shade in the studio cover concealer! I didnt notice and I used it on my blemishes and the color was so off! She gave me NW20 instead of NC20. I don't want to go back because I know I'll be tempted by the HC tester lol!

It has the triangle of death on the dutch mac site as well, but I'm sure that's a mistake.

Lightscapade is perm here in the netherlands for sure. I saw it myself in the update book. Maybe it's not in the US.

I don't think it is perm in the US. I remember doing a live chat a few months ago and they said they had not heard anything about Lightscapade becoming permanent. And since it's no longer on the US MAC site and Nordstrom, it's probably true.

Would be much appreciated for MAC would do the same with, oh, I don't know... Stereo Rose, New Vegas, Glissade and Pleasureflush? Wouldn't go amiss with me...

Weird that it's not the same for all countries.

Ah thank you so much for taking the picture! Super helpful. I think I'm safe and don't need a backup then.

I'm quite sad looking at your shattered UA though, that sure had quite a good amount of that amazing looking purple color.
Click to expand...
No problem at all! After you asked, I couldn't resist comparing the pictures... It was such a great question! It makes me feel better knowing that the overall colors/swirls are consistent throughout on these MSF's. Crew from HS sort of put me off with how it was reported to change as it was used. Although that sounds very interesting, I like to know what I'm dealing with from my products. To know what to expect. I'm happy that my UA loss could be for some good! HeeHee
I liked all the purple in my broken UA too... the replacement they sent me is definitely nowhere NEAR as nice... hardly any purple in it at all. Oh well, guess that's the gamble we take when we have to order our swirls online. I'm sure it will still be nice.

I was wondering if any WOC have purchased/swatched Venus? I'm an NW45 and keep going back and forth about it. Thanks in advance!

I agree, Venus is very pretty. I kept going back and forth with getting a BU since it appears to be nothing special at first, but there's just something about. I'm hoping I can get a BU at one of the counters.

I love the swirls in your Sky mes! I'm still waiting for mine to arrive. I hope it looks at least half as good as your's!

I finally swatched and took pictures of my MES this morning. There was overcast yesterday, and it's partly cloudy today. So I tried taking pictures whenever the sun popped out. I have to go through them to see if the pictures are any good. On the bright side, I accidentally learned that my camera phone has the ability to zoom. Of course, I discovered it *after* I finished taking all of the pictures.

After swatching everything, I'm not sure how I feel about Sky. It doesn't have the same sheen as the others when swatched on my arm. I'm also not sure it's a color I would reach for often, so I would probably want it in a formula that's easier for me to use like a Veluxe Pearl. I look like a little girl who found her mother's makeup after I applied Sky to my eyes. It's all over the place. I think I'd prefer to have Universal Appeal instead of Sky.

Richelle, what do you think of Light Year? I skipped it because I only got the gold sheen to appear on me. Am I missing anything special?
