My order shipped I hope my items get here fast! I'm considering getting Simmer but I think I want a few more swatches. It looks really pretty, I just don't want it to be too red since I'm very pale

And this is why I will buy in store! Bossa blue has no blue!! I want to be able to check my products before I get them. That's bossa brown/taupe...
I thought the same thing!

Is anyone seeing all 3 msf to choose from at Nordstrom.com? I'm not on the desktop site, just the mobile app and I want to order on my desktop through citibank to get extra points

I actually don't. It just gives you the option to add it to the bag as though it was just one. I don't see that it specifies which one it is either.

I think it's everyone. They seemed to be sending out samples to the bloggers in advance for the last while (Karen, Beautezine, Christine, etc). I really like when they do that so we can see how the products look. That doesn't seem to have happened this time. It's hard to pick the MSFs without better swatches.
Usually they do give us a few days (although it has been getting shorter and shorter notice and will continue to be that way unfortunately) before the collection is announced. Tropical Taboo went up before the embargo date was even supposed to end, so I was super confused! I already had my products from an event that I had attended with MAC, so that's how I had my products in advanced- I just didn't have the photos finished yet. I'll be sure get all my photos are reviews done well in advanced next time just in case MAC pulls this again :)

Thanks! I'm talking to them right now on the phone they said the mobile app is more up to date than the website and sometimes there's a lag, they're updating it every hour so she said to keep an eye on it :( I need my quadruple points! Oh well, more time for me to wait for beautezine to hopefully get more swatches up!

hmmm, I can select each of the three & add to cart

Really??? Which browser are you using? I thought maybe if I cleared cookies it'd work :( I just want to order them so I can get them sooner rather than later and I can't justify throwing $15 just for two day shipping...that's a lipstick!

The blue part looked so pretty in an Instagram picture. I would've been so mad if that's what I got!!!
I'm crossing my fingers mine has a decent amount of blue! If not I'll be tempted to purchase one in store that does. I won't be disappointed with the brown color, but I'm really looking forward to the blue shade.

I like the deep blue green in Cha Cha Cha. Damn. I love the look they did in that video posted with the TT event where a model was getting her makeup done. I was under the impression it was Bossa Blue when we first saw the IG photo, but I'm pretty sure they used Cha Cha Cha on her in the video. This is my main temptation when it comes to that eyeshadow. Otherwise I'd surely pass esp. because I don't use Water that often from HC. Maybe I should just look for regular eyeshadow shades that match the two separate ones in Cha Cha Cha.

From what I saw in the video, they used bosa blue and then cha cha cha right in the center of her lid. I'm pretty sure.... If I remember correctly lol!
