So true!
Now I'm not a guac fan(sorry Pinkdollface!) but that swatch is making think of how I can use it lol.

The new MB looks more gray to me. The old MB has a slight purple sheen to it.

I'm thinking they probably can't make the shades exactly the same, especially the LE ones.
A friend of mine dyes fiber (yarn) for a living and always runs into trouble with the formulation and colors of the dyes changing on a regular basis.
This year's Army Green may not be the same as last year's.
I bet MAC and other cosmetic companies run into the same problem as well.

Thanks for this! Funny how I tried to just order one thing from each release, but ended up with exactly everything that was on my initial want list (which included FoF). So much for behaving!
OLD Moth Brown IS a taupey/purple/grey
The new one is more grey with a tinge of taupe on me.

I panicked b/c I thought MB was sold out, but I still see it available on the US site.
It doesn't matter...Shellcat's swatches have kinda left me disappointed. I'm sure it's a lovely color and I'll use it a lot, but I WANTED THE PURPLE SHIFT. It's what sold me on MB

Coming from a person who doesn't really BU, YES YOU DO! I've been pushng it onto all my friends and family. LOVE this color.

The old one has a purple shift to it meaning one direction it will look like grey/brown and another direction it will look like it does in Shell's pic. The new one just looks grey/brown period.

The old MB is so pretty! I'm sad I missed out on the old formula...

That was always in the back of my mind. Plus watching the videos of the bloggers making their colors last year made me think how can they not get it right?

i just did!! and guaca thanks to you with your swatch. the waiting, the need, the wanting of those items is gone baby, GONE!!Get it ALL!!! *insert evil laugh here*
Hey guys, I'm still fairly new to how things work on here. I see a lot of people trying to "swap" for other coveted items. I have a few NIB limited edition items I wouldn't mind swapping or selling, but I don't like the idea of evilbay or overcharging. How would I go about it?

Yes, I agree. I just removed my makeup before bed and then took a minute to apply Jete and MB. I love Jete (gotta love VPs); no way that's getting passed on. It's a great lid wash shade that's got shimmer but is office friendly. Now that I look at MB again, it's got more of a taupe tinge than purple. I put it against both Satin Taupe and Shale (my beloved old friend) and it just looks grey. I like it because I have nothing like it and because I don't have the old MB to compare it to.
