Does anyone else find it weird that there are no Cremesheen Glasses??????? We haven't seen everything yet, but usually there's something…..
Maybe it's just because MAC wants to push the MLBs hard? I always look forward to the spring csgs and the ones in the big Mineralize collection in the summer, but let's face it - there will be MLBs in that collection, now that there is such a thing, rather than csgs. They're my favorite glosses for the texture, the translucency, the rich colors and the way they look great on top of lipsticks as well as by themselves.
The MLBs are great, but they ain't cremesheen glasses. Here's hoping this is a temporary thing.

I hope so too! I have not tried any of the MLB yet. I'm thinking of trying on from Baking Beauties collection. I love cremesheen glasses! I do hope that the upcoming mineralize collection will have them!

With Mineralize lipsticks as well as balms coming out, combined with how popular that huge summer Mineralize collection is, methinks MAC has been wanting an all mineralize range for a while and the summer collection is going to start being 100% Mineralize. More cha-ching for MAC - it's a good money making tactic.
If the Fashion Sets collection had been csg instead of plain lg, I would have been going bananas.

Yes I love Cremesheen glosses. I do see how you go through them quickly compared to other glosses I have. I am glad to see the mlbs back tho. I hate to say it but I think I like them more than tendertones. I really like the squeeze tube better.

I've noticed that a ton of skin powders/finishers, whether Pearlmatte, that Year of the Snake Beauty Powder, or MSF, have been set for MAC 2013. What do you guys think of those offerings overall? I really like those sorts of products, but I don't want to be shelling out cash for every variety, y'know? I'll probably just end up purchasing 2 or 3 unless I absolutely adore any others.
Also, how do you prefer using them? As a highlighter? A setting powder? Or perhaps an overall shimmery finish?

I'm personally not a fan of the pearlmattes at all. They lack shimmer and seem to be more of an allover brightener, tho they do have a bit of colour. So far the past PMs have been super light in colour. Until swatches are done of the archie PMs, and the new ones in The BB collection, we won't know the colour payoff as to whether they can be used as a blush or not. BPs are always a good thing. They initially launched without shimmer at all, meant to be used all over and a glowing brightener. Within the last couple years the shimmer has increased, but not to the point of a glitterball. However, these more shimmery ones are meant to be highlights. They lack enough colour to be used as a blush tho. MSFs are great well rounded products. Some contain enough colour to be used as a shimmery blush, some just as a highlight, and range from a nice sheen to chunkier shimmer. This is the only product that can also be used wet for a more intense effect. NOT for use all over the face tho (insert disco ball warning!). The newest product that's out now is the ED skinfinish. It's a great highlighter with a soft-medium shimmer. More of a high sheen (in the middle of a BP and most MSFs). These can only be used dry (tho the ED shadows can be used wet or dry. The new ED blushes use is yet unknown). It all depends on the effect you're going for. HTHs!

has there been a BP that works for WOC as an all over brightener?

Thanks for the helpful information!
I like shimmer, but there are times when it gets a little too much for me. Probably will go for the Pearlmattes and the new Extra Dimension products they're bringing out. Best of Both Worlds and whatnot. -shrug-
Last year, I bought a lot of lipsticks, but I have a feeling that this year will be the year I splurge on tons of face products. Especially with MAC's new offerings this year.
