Just a warning that my swatches are a hot mess. Lol. Not so much the blushes, but the eyeshadows are in random spots on my hand because I was running out of space.

That's the one i skipped.
me too. i just ordered bareness and at dusk because i love my neutral blushes but i don't think i could buy that one without seeing it in person. blazing haute looks really nice too but orangey/super peachy blushes look awful on me for some reason :(

I don't have a photo of Zestful because the MA swatched it on her arm for me to see, but OH MY GOD EVERYONE NEEDS IT IN THEIR LIVES. I never wear greens, but it looks like a mermaids tail in a freakin pot. Excuse my language but it shits on all the other eyeshadows in this collection. Triple Impact is insanely pretty too. My phone didn't capture it nearly as gorgeous as it looks IRL.

I'm so nervous it will look like Subtle Breeze or I'm the one :/ ill know tomorrow. In the pan all blushes look gorgeous
Just thought I'd chime in! I own Subtle Breeze and got to see Flaming Chic in person, and I don't think that they're very close in color. Flaming Chic is more of a pinky red while Subtle Breeze is a light, blue-toned pink. I would also say Flaming Chic is also much brighter than Subtle Breeze. Hope that helps!

So in some swatches the blushes look great, and they suck in others.  What to do? :shrugs: I don't really want any of the eyeshadows.  Maybe one of the new SF? The blushes were very pretty when I went to see them today.

So so happy that I got Double Definition!!

It light shown through fabric (a box over the light made of fabric) to have it defused effect. Basically you have light coming from everywhere so their is not contract or sharp shadows. Thus why the colour looks flat for these duo tone shades. ;)

Love to get one but I don't have the physical room in my tiny apartment to set it up. lol

To me she must have 3 or 4 of them going to give that "not light is coming from any direction" look to her photos. ;)


I'll probably regret it but Extra Dimension Skinfinish Definitely Defined looks way to warm for my fair skin so I'm skipping it. >_< (It know it's going to sell out.)

Zestful, Opalesse, and Triple Impact it is for me at $84.75 total with tax. Though I'm exciet as i have not order this many MAC eyeshadows since MAC Peacocky: Mega Metal. lol
oh cool thank you!
