I need to get my items including a liner and brush from a friend but I just couldn't resist going as well!

Beautiful LiliV---& nice swatches too. ENJOY!!!
I wasn't excited for this collection at all in the beginning but I must say I just love it! I've been using simmer and lust the last 2 days and I'm just in love! Also have used Caribbean the last 2 days as well and <3 I'm going to pick up a few backups tomorrow. Not sure why I do this as I have soo many shadows and have only hit pan on a few. I guess I'm just scared I won't find something similar... I guess it's like they say "how many shades of pink do you really need". ALL of them is my response.. Hope everyone is loving what they got!

I saw the collection today and it was really pretty! The standouts for me were Exotic Ember Blush, Simmer Blush and Adored Skinfinish. Lust was pretty awesome too. For those with deeper skin Exotic Ember is a must try. The sparkles in it remind me of those in Underdressed Lipglass. I came away with Adored, Exotic Ember and Simmer.

The MAC Counter at the Fort Wayne Macy's have the collection live! I bought the Heroine lipliner, the Lust skinfinish, Time to Tango, and Tropica. When I bought the lipliner, they had only two left.

ETA: I thought they said today's the first day.

Well, we have a second sell out. Adored MSF is sold out on the MAC Canada website. Maybe I should have bought a b/u today at the counter.

Very pretty swatches. I wasn't interested in MM but today I wore my Lady at Play that I ordered when these lippies first came out and was reminded how much I love the
formula, so I thought why not???
Hmm..don't you tempt me. I don't need another color like this! But I do see the difference.. It looks warmer and pinker.

Nothing at all to do with the topic at hand, but I know my fellow board moms will get it. My 18 year-old daughter is graduating from high school today and asked me to do her makeup for her. I offered to pick up the cost of having it done at MAC, but she preferred me to do it.

We spent a solid 40 minutes playing with red liners and the many many red lippies in the house to Frankenlip just the right colour and finish for her black and white dress. Now, I'm no MUA but I'm thrilled to bits that my late adolescent daughter still is happy to spend part of her special day with me and trusts me to create a look she's happy with (unlike the MAC artist who caked on foundation that was a very poor colour match).

Off to have fun with my 'baby' whose been taller than me for at least five years.

I put my Lust and Blonde MSFs together to compare, and Lust is the slightly naughtier sister of Blonde. The lightest pink shades in both are basically the same, but the cranberry in Lust is definitely darker than the darker shade in Blonde.

I'm sure you already do it!!! Erine said to put on cream blush first and then foundation. I was afraid to try it, but I over came my stupid insecurity and
did it. I started out with MAC Optimistic Orange and then applied my Chanel Perfection Lumiére foundation, and it was flawless. Now that I have my
technique down, I can move on to my Chanel cream blushes.

Oh wow, no I haven't tried the cream blushes that way. I'll give it a try. Most times, I apply my cream blushes to my naked bare skin...yep, I like them natural like that.

Love the Chanel cream blushes

The crazy thing is they said they only got 3 of the MSF. I told them that's because the other 2 gold deposit and soft and gentle are permanent. Then they put those 2 on the display with the others !!!!!! Dam do I work for Mac ????!!!!!! Lol
I swear! :rolleyes:

Same thing works for powder blush too! :wink:
Hi there! Loooonggggg time lurker who finally got the guts to join. I just received my 159 brush today and there's random long black hairs sticking out past the white ends. Is that normal or should I exchange it? 
Mine had a longer hair or two as well. Its normal for any and all brushes. Just trim it and you're golden.
Do you guys think the 159 would work well with extra dimension skin finishes?
Sure does! I tried it with Definitely Defined and it worked beautifully. Then i went and bought more BUs of the EDSF :unsure:
