Earthly is the only one to arrive like that though. I think it's because Nordstrom put it in a huge box with a small piece of paper. It was rattling when I got it.

I have to return Invincible Light. I hate it so much. It is chunky and makes my eyes burn.

Also here is my sad Earthly that Nordstrom sent me :(

Yours actually arrived in much better condition than mine believe it or not! Someome mentioned that Earthly seemed like it was much more vulnerable than the others for some reason... that would explain why it seems it's the one that is arriving in pieces the most often! I think it has something to do with the larger amount of matte shadow in Earthly's swirls. Maybe they aren't binding together with the other shades in the swirl as well as the other ones with more shimmery colors. Either way, after all the hassle and more waiting on Earthly to arrive in one piece, I am sadly not happy with it. It looks lovely on PrettyKitty and others seem to really like it, but it is a miss for me. I gave it 3 really good chances to impress me. It's a decent color, but not good enough to pass by my other pretty taupes to try it again.... Hope when you get a good one, you like it better than IL. Sorry you have to deal with that mess of an MES!

Here are pictures of the look I did. I'm wearing Devil pro blush on my cheeks, Earthshine as a contour and Flurry of Fun l/g on my lips. I also have to say that I love Devil blush!

Earthshine and Devil look pretty on you, Pinkdollface! And green! That's your color!

I really enjoyed this collection. I'm so sad that this trend has died off. No offense, but I don't think the new eyeshadows that Mac released are anywhere near the beauty of heavenly creatures.

I agree that HC seems more exciting than the new EC shadows, but some people have had their HC goodies for awhile and a lot has been said about it. A lot of the time, anticipation is what leads to people posting a lot. Then comes the excitement about what their swirls look like, the sense of victory one feels when they picked the perfect swirl. Then aside from FOTD, there really isn't much more to say.

People are still using the products, I wouldn't say the trend is dying. I've learned that no matter how excited Specktrettes get about a certain product or trend, it's not long before the buzz is about the next collection or great new product. And that's ok. It's nice to be look forward to things.

Mineralized products are very different from anything else MAC releases. I'm glad that MAC has a variety of products. It allows them to appeal to a wide range of people. For example, I couldn't even really use MSF or MB until recent launches b/c I used to break out every single time I tried in the past. And some people can't use MES without getting eye irritation. If other shadows/products didn't exist (i.e. shades from the permanent line or the new EC shadows), some people wouldn't even give MAC a second thought.

There's a product for everyone! And that's pretty cool.

Cut a caper is back in stock on the UK site, I think I'll get it next week when I get paid! And Earthly finally. I'm never going to be done with this collection. If anyone needs a CP, just let me know. :)

I'm not that excited of Electric Cool, I haven't bought anything from it yet...unsure if I will. But after the past couple days, I'm debating on finding other brands to shop from, MAC has kinda disappointed me by refusing to help me out on an order that I didn't receive.

Made a nice combo swiping Magnetic Attraction over BE Celestine. Made a gorgeous coppery rose similiar to Mythical e/s. My MA has almost no yellow in it btw. Having so much fun with MA, especially since I never used my Expensive Pink. It just didn't look right on me even tho it's nice in the pan. And Magnetic Attraction is so much more fun!

I was kinda hoping this forum would reach 10000 posts like HK.

It feels like folks are drifting off to other releases.

What is it about mineral makeup that is so enticing???

I'm looking at my swirls and they kinda remind me of the tube/roll cake that has cream or filling in the middle.

Yummy.

I was hoping for 10000 posts, too! We can do it! In the future I am hoping for a tie dye mineral collection from Mac with some trippy 60's/70's models! Some of these could be repromoted in that collection! Regardless of the upcoming collections, I don't see myself falling out of love with these anytime soon! They are just so easy to mix with other makeup looks...hence my need to buy more makeup to utilize the HC makeup with! :bigstar:
