I went to my local M.A.C store this very morning, I took " Haute Altitude " and " Après Chic " ( and Ruby Woo ! ), Haute Altitude is a very lovely pink, so wearable and delicate. Après Chic is a kind of soft amber red very wearable too. It was a micro haul but so great because I really thought I would skip on this collection ! Highly recommand both shades.

Me too....I really hope that mine will have a lot of green because I think that this makes the pretty duochrome shimmer.


Oh, I see, I thought you got them all

Haute Altitude on my NC 20 skin look terribly bland and dull

Yes Après Chic is something in between amber and strawberry red, very soft compared to the other red lipsticks I have ( I also picked up Ruby Woo ! ). Après Chic is really lovely, all lipsticks from this collection are soft in fact. It's good because Strength lipsticks are all bold ones !
Haute Altitude is pretty, very easy to wear with a blush like Rosy Outlook, Chanel Rose Initiale or any rose blush. The amplified texture is just great !
 
I ordered Stereo Rose today. I was on the fence thinking it wouldn't show up on my NW43 skin but after seeing the swatches I couldn't resist!

BTW, if anyone in the U.S. is trying to get their hands on SR, it's still in stock on Nordstorm.com!

It's a peachy blush rather I think but why not ? Haute Altitude is maybe THE perfect rose to-go, M.A.C has really beautiful lipsticks, theyr'e worth buying I think ( which is not the case for some other M.A.C products ) !

do you have it?. its really pink on me. i still have to buy some lipsticks from the pearl cremesheen collection, i really like lipsticks like those and matte ones.

i was actually just looking at some bobbi brown ones in the morning. sweet nectar and guava. those are peachy ones but they are kind of easy to wear colors. they are in my list to get now.

Yes and it's more peachy on me. If I search for a rose blush I use Chanel Rose Initiale, M.A.C Well Dressed ( blue and cold rose in fact, very pale shade but buildable and pretty ), Dior Rose Dragée or Benefit Hervana. I haven't tried Bobbi Brown blushes I guess they're pretty too. Ilamasqua blushes look gorgeous too, they often have a matte finish. I haven't any Illamasqua blush yet but one day I'll order Katie and Tremble I think.
Peachy blushes : Chanel Espiègle ( very soft ), Malice ( so great, more intense ), Benefit Cha Cha Tint ( liquid, very flattering indeed ), Nars Sex Appeal ( gorgeous and so soft ), I have 4 and I love them ( normally I prefer rose shades in fact ).

This does not look orangey at all!! Can you compare it to any other bronzers that you own? Now I want it too!

it's not bronzey at all
i have many bronzers but this does not look like any of them
it's much much more lighter and not so brown/orange
