So I decided to pick up Sculpt and Natural BP today. I was too worried about them selling out if I waited until tomorrow. The MUA used natural BP over my foundation while I was there. It's beautiful. I haven't got a chance to play around with either yet but they are pretty. I actually like the packaging.

I also decided to pick up the 109 brush to apply the sculpting powder. I've been wanting this brush for months.
The BP looks gorgeous. Making me rethink skipping it. Its still available aswell in the UK. MUST STAY STRONG! Need to save my money for Osbournes, but damn it looks pretty. From what I've read I think it may be too pink for me as I'm more warm toned. I need to keep telling myself that otherwise I'd cave. Enjoy playing with your new goodies! And that brush really does look great, might have to check that out at some point.

It is simply gorgeous!! I missed out on FM so that was another reason I bought it. Plus I've never owned a BP so I really wanted to try it out. I think I've decided to skip the Osbourne collection so I didn't mind spending that money on this collection. The MSFs don't seem that great and I'm not a fan of matte lipsticks. Those were the only things that were still on my list. The blushes are just too much money for me to even consider. I can't wait to see what you pick up! The lipsticks are so beautiful! Be strong!!!! Think about all the goodies you want from the Osbourne collection!!

They should have brought out more variety to suit everyone!
I agree. Or they should just make the shaping and sculpting powders available in pots/compacts since contouring and highlighting has become so popular. I love having all of my stuff in palettes, but most people like having individual packaging.

I don't know about the free standing MAC counters, but sculpt sold out first at the two Macy counters I was at. Of course the associate told me they got four so not much to begin with.

The lines weren't long at all. The MAC store was pretty empty. A couple of people did call in to ask about the collection, but there wasn't too much excitement.

I tried the red varnish, which was really awesome. It's a solid red. I don't think it has a noticeable base. Just red... maybe warm toned more than cold. Opaque in one coat, goes on thick without being gunky. Had a really bad smell that makes you almost feel dizzy but I'm a little sensitive to that. The smell doesn't linger on your nails, just in the bottle. I've had some opaque-in-one-coat polish before but this one just takes the cake. I think I like this over the OCC NSFW nail polish. The finish is matte with a satin sheen. I really like it. The black one was streaky. Too bad the quality isn't consistent between all the nail polishes.

I would love it if these came out in pots!! I lot getting eyeshadows in pan form but I'm not ready to depot my blushes into a palette. I really want to get my hands on a shaping powder.

It took me a long time to decide to depot all of my blushes. I finally did it when I realized that a lot of them weren't getting any love from me for long periods of time. I don't regret it one bit because I use all of them now and the perm ones in pan form are cheaper. I do miss some of the pretty LE packaging though. I don't think I would ever depot my MSFs though, that would be a tragedy in the making.

I've considered depotting them but I just haven't been 100% sure that's what I wanted. I may need to if I buy anymore though! My blush drawer is full and won't fit anymore. The lower price for the blush pans are also swaying me into depotting them. I most likely will in the future but for now I like them in their pots. I think if they weren't getting any love then it was a good decision! We can't have any abandoned blushes!! I don't think I would risk depotting the EDSF/EDB or MSF/MB in fear of them breaking!

Thanks hun! I do just keep thinking of Kellys lipsticks. I want them all except for the nude. I love matte lipsticks, they're my fav. Dodgy girl and kelly yum yum are just to die for. I can't wait for them to be released here in the UK. I'm suprised I love mattes as much as i do as I have dry flaky lips but they just seem to work better for me than creamier ones. Plus they last alot longer which is always a good thing and they tend to be more opaque too which I prefer. I agree with you aswell about the MSFs, they are off my list for sure. I'm waiting to see swatches and reviews of the blushes as they sound nice but they are expensive and I have alot of blushes which I don't even wear. I can't wait to hear what you think of the BP and Sculpt once you've had chance to try them properly!

I agree! I'm not a fan of palettes. As useful as they are I just prefer having things seperate in its own compact so I can take it with me in my bag if i need to. The sculpting powders have only just become available on Mac UK recently so I've yet to try any. I would be much more likely to order one if it was a compact instead. Sculpt will just be too dark for me otherwise I would have bought it.

Those lipsticks are gorgeous!! I'm glad you love mattes! If they were in a different formula I would probably get them. I am probably one of the few people on here that love lustres. I don't mind reapplying my lip products. The blushes seem like they would be so pretty but I can't get over the insane price increase compared to the price increase for every other product in this collection. Why MAC why?? I can't wait to use them! I don't wear makeup everyday but I will let you know when I do try them out for myself!
