I would say Ronnie Red, Daddy's Little Girl, and Betty Bright lipsticks being sold out first as well as Flatter Me and Veronica's Blush Pearlmattes. I just saw the descriptions of both Pearlmattes. I did not know that Flatter Me was Shell Pearl Beauty Power and Foolish Me Blush and Veronica's Blush was Play It Proper Beauty Powder and Frankly Scarlet Blush! I have both Shell Pearl and Play It Proper Beauty Powders so the Pearlmattes are a easy skip for me.

Any thoughts on what's going to sell out first, online. I predict, Spoiled Rich, Betty Bright, Flatter Me, Ronnie Red and Veronica's Blush. Maybe the brush set?
Betty Bright first for the lippies, along with Spoiled Rich quad & Flatter Me. I think Prom Princess will sell out quick too and so will the brush set & Cream Soda blush. Mall Madness lipglass seems to be popular as well.

Dunno if being repetitive but Mac online just informed me that the AG notifications will be sent to those who signed up an hr b4 it actually goes up on the website. I was reassured that this is different from the 'other' delayed alert. HTH
You mean by the text alert message? If so, that means we all will be alerted at the same time!! Lol...smh

Would you say its buildable? I dont mind a light swatch as long as I can build it up.. I do have legendary which I guess its the only 'peach' color I own from mac since I think Easy Manner is just pink and fleet fast is coral. Im just not sure if it is unique enough to buy yet .. :shrugs:
yes its for sure buildable, i have easy manner too and its a subtle pink a lot different than cream soda for those who ma be wondering. i dont have fleet fast. i cant think of anything that reminds me of cream soda. id say grab it because it looks very pretty in the pan, more subdued on the cheeks, and it will sell out fast due to how nice it looks under the bright lights at Mac.

Anxiously waiting for a Cream Soda review! I really want to know how it compares to the other orang-ey colors mac has released
The only orangey blush I have that I can compare it to is Supercontinental and I can tell you CS is lighter and not as shimmery.
thank you for this review. I was thinking of getting the Betty palette since I needed more neutral colors, but since it's real light I won't get and stick to veronicas as originally planned.
Welcome! I really wish Betty's wasn't so sheer :/ I was excited for both quads but hey at least I'll be saving money!
Yeah we know how reliable MAC text and emails are. They'll notify you like an hour or more after it launches. However I won the Betty or Veronica contest last summer and they said I would be one of the first to be notified on the release date..but..yeah...not holding my breath on that one MAC lol
LOL that's very true. But I didn't mean texts from MAC, I meant like if other Specktra users were going to alert each other through text when the collection goes live :)

So you're getting Flatter Me instead of SP now? I keep trying to convince myself that no sane person who is getting Cream Soda and Shell Pearl would buy Flatter Me as well. I haven't had much luck so far
