I got my last BU of Light Year earlier last week, but all the hubbub with By Request made me gloss it over! Anyway, here's my last swirl:


There's not much gold in it at all, which I guess is ok. I might use that one after I've use up my first!
Here's my Light Year family, the one on the bottom left is the one I'm currently using:
WOW! Amazing to look at!Thanks for posting!

So I've been trying to avoid this thread like the plague after my last Heavenly Creature haul. I didn't want to be tempted to get more. I was thinking out of sight, out of mind. FAIL!

I went swirl hunting for my BU Earthshine and I finally decided to cave and get Light Year too. But they were sold out everywhere I went. So I'm just going to add an Earthshine to my cart when I get the By Request shadows, along with Cut Loose lipglass. I hope it will be rich in burgundy swirls like some of the pics I've seen on here.

I'll just order Light Year from Nordstrom. I did manage to pick up Invincible Light MES in my weakness.

Sadly, I'm still tempted to get Water and Aurora. They're the only 2 MES I didn't get. I'm even more tempted to get a Center of the Universe BU.

I'm trying my best not to get BUs of Earthshine and Light Year! They are currently sitting in my Nordstrom cart. :shock:

Its so hard to resist! I am considering getting a BU of Earthshine and getting another CotU since I gave mine to my mom. She loved it so much and is so happy with it that I am glad I gave it to her. But now I am out of it!
I'm thankful my my mom is not really into makeup. If she was, I would have nothing! When I move back to my hometown I have a feeling my little cousin will be all in my stash! When I visit, the first question she asks is "Do you have any new makeup I need to try on?" :shock: I just need to get ready!

Love Love all your Light Years! It's my fave MSF too. I only got one BU though. Makes me wonder . . . I did force myself to use another highlighter today. I have so many I can't believe it. Anyway, today I wore Supernova (with my new Laura Mercier fan brush) with Superb EDSF.

I still haven't bought anything from this collection, but all the MSFs have been slowly but surely eating away at my core for the last month and half. I better get on that Light Year before Nordstrom is all sold out. I don't want the dreaded skipper's remorse!

I went to my MAC store a few days after the release, and the MUA gave me a very generous sample of VAE. It's okay, I don't love it but I don't hate it either. It's quite gritty but then it melts too fast that I have to work rather quickly for the exfoliating part. I do like that it brightened my skin and controlled my oils for a day or so though. But I'll pass on this. I'm not too keen on skincare being LE because that just doesn't make sense to me. I'll just stick to my waffle weave face cloth as my exfoliant lol.

Yes hurry! I think these msfs are so unique you will regret not getting them.

I have to agree with a lot of you girls, LY is my favorite MSF out of the four. Don't get me wrong I love them all but LY is a must have no doubt about that. Eyeshadow, blush, & highlighter- all in one!

Well, I did have a month and half to think about it. I should just go for it and don't look back lol. I'll order Light Year first and after I've added more funds into my account, I'll get the other three MSFs to take advantage of Nordstrom's cashback.

D'oh! I ordered from them earlier today but completely forgot to use Ebates. I need to make another order, so thanks for the reminder.

Yup, Nordstrom is at 5% cashback at the moment when it's 3% regularly. Come to think of it, why haven't I been buying my MAC here? I should do it more often!

YES! With the exception of online only collections like Ruffian and By Request, I buy almost all my MAC stuff from Nordstrom via ebates. People may think that they won't earn a lot but it all really adds up. I always say that I'm not going to spend a lot but end up placing 5 or 6 "small" orders. The cash back on that is like getting another free item, haha.

I also love when they run 8% promos on Sephora...

I agree, Ebates really does add up. I think I'm too afraid of getting my MAC orders canceled by Nordstrom. That's the main reason why I don't get most of my MAC stuff from them. I don't like how some of their items appear to be in stock when they're really not. I've just recently started ordering from them online. Two out of three different orders were canceled because they couldn't fulfill them. I need to place another order today. I hope I don't have any issues.
