I just ordered Superwatt, but Liba has me dying for Fashion Circuit and it's sold out everywhere :(

Just get the Endless Sea L'Oreal Infallible, it's very similar. As nice as Fashion Circuit is, it is very dupeable imo. EDIT: Selfrigdes still has it in stock.

Nordstrom still has it. Do they ship overseas?

They "do", but 1) they do not ship Mac (or makeup in general) internationally and 2) it cost's about USD 50 to ship anything...

Actually, does anyone know any online retailer which sells Mac internationally?

I think my favorite is Fashion Circuit, just because it's the most pigmented and easy to apply of the ones I own. It's so effortlessly fabulous for a summer night - just slap it on the lids with bright blue eye liner on the lower lid and some blue mascara - instant glam without any work. With some bronzer and that fantastic red lipglass from Hey Sailor, it's a guaranteed look with a red dress!

Then again, Infra-Violet makes a super flattering look that doesn't look overdone - good with shimmery pale lips.

Blacklit will be my most used year-round. I haven't opened my Dynamo yet - waiting until things are a little bit more fall-sy before breaking it open. I'm going to love that one with Cusp of Dawn and Strictly Plutonic.

I didn't really get into the neutrals from this collection, even though they'd be lovely on others. For neutral eyes, I figure I'll just wait for the pressed pigments!

Oh I'm waiting for my delivery of Dynamo right now. I can't wait to try it. I will try Cusp of Dawn and Strictly Plutonic with it. Good idea. I was just about to go search for info on the pressed pigments. When are these coming out?

I used Infra-Violet on 2/3rd of the lid and Highly Charged on the outer 1/3rd yesterday (along with Midnight Snack fluidline), and I loved it! It held up amazingly well, given that I was outside in muggy, 90 degree weather for hours. No creasing or fading.

I know L'Oreal's Perpetually Purple is supposed to be a dupe for HC, but there is no comparison for me. HC is so easy to apply and so vibrant. PP is a pain and not worth the time without foiling it. Even then, it's still not up to snuff with HC for me.

wearing some Love Power on the lid and Pure Flash on the inner corner...

I had zero interest in this collection til I saw this. I immediately went to two stores to buy Pure Flash and Love Power. The Pure Flash was taken from out back since it had shifted and was in their return pile and the Love Power required checking 5 stores. I so should have just ordered them online but there you go ~ you enabled!

These are so lovely in pan I can't wait to try them. While waiting to get them, I tried the Loreal infallibles and I was really impressed with them as well. What brushes are you ladies using with these? I am afraid to mess them up. I am not averse to using my fingers if that is what works...

In pan, the acid yellow one is my favorite

Maybe these new disposable applicators would be good to use. http://www.maccosmetics.com/product/9392/22079/New-Collections/New-Accessories/Accessories/Eye-Applicator/index.tmpl

For someone who wasn't going to get any of these... How did I end up with 4!? LOL
Coil, Superwatt, Pure Falsh, and Infra Violet are all now sitting in my stash. That DIVA IV...

The MUA who helped me at Nordstrom's told me to use the 239. I had a feeling that wasn't right, but I tried it anyway. It is workable, but you have to pat on the eyeshadow and layer it repeatedly.

I found a 242 at my CCO and plan to try that next time.

Honey, I blame you for the new Loreal lemmings I have and I got as many as I could in addition to six of these electric cool e/s. And yeah, I may do a "Peacocky manouver" where I drive all over town trying to track down all the colors after they are out of stock. I skipped the teal one, because the Loreal dupe looked close, I figured Coil was dupeable, and I don't need anymore gold/champagne, but the rest had to come home with me.

Cartoonchic, those disposeble eyeshadow applicators are a good idea, I think I could track down less expensive ones on ebay. So far, I am thinking I will do my method I use with fluidlines, I break a Q-tip in half, use the "sterile" (broken end that hasn't been touched by my germy hand) into the pot and scoop out a tiny amount, smear it on my pinky finger or ring finger, and use the finger to apply...

HeeHee! Sorry! But luckily I was able to easily skip a lot of these colors due to those cheaper Infallibles, so I am glad I fell so in love with them! I wanted to at least grab a couple of these ec ones to try... and had to get PF AND SW since people were going back and forth on which one it was that looked most like Vintage Selection PP (which I covet!)... then Shellcat said she liked Coil so much I got sucked into that one. And damn IV taking her sweet time showing up made me all jumpy and added her to my cart during one of my By request orders! She spooked me into buying her! LOL But I really am more than happy with my Loreal babies to pass on the rest of these...

I am really glad to be enabled on those Loreal dupes because they are a rare find being such good quality MU bought at the drug store. And it is crazy how often they have a BOGO at the Rite Aid, Walgreens and all those stores...I went in to get some cold medicine the other day and they had BOGO so I picked up Amber Rush and Endless Pearl. Oops...
