Mandy, I just gasped at how beautiful you:eyelove: look!!!
Wore Mystical out today. So pretty and such an easy color to wear (SMHM on the cheeks): And yes, that IS a ray of sunlight falling on my face. Even the heavens like this collection LOL. When I got home, I decided to try on GOTS (since Mystical came off during lunch and I didn't reapply b/c I left it at home). It's PERFECT. I expected the color to appear much more muted on me, like a darker Mystical. But no... it's so much more than I thought it would be. I was SO close to skipping because I knew my haul was going to be $$$$ and since I collect plum lip products, it's not something I NEEDED. Also, I purchased Dior Addict Fluid Stick in 995 Intrigue several weeks back and promptly removed GOTS from my wish list. But it wasn't plum on me, so I added GOTS again. In fact, the GOTS + Modern Lure combo is EXACTLY what I wanted 995 Intrigue to be on me: a rich, opaque plum with sheen. Intrigue has more red in it than GOTS and comes off as a rich wine color on me. Looks like I'll be stalking for a restock after all (BOO!!) But, I MUST have another GOTS and Modern Lure for my collection. SMHM on the cheeks as well: [COLOR=CD69A1] [/COLOR] P.S. I wore SaS this weekend. Looks pretty on WOC and there is a difference from SMHM on the cheeks.
I love how everything looks on you! I agree that the blushes looks different. Well, on myself as well it does...lol

I think I may be done with this collection now! Happy with my stuff!
WCN still has my attention, but since I have the Naked liner I think I'll skip. I also thought about backing up SS but I'm going to stay strong and stick to my no back up rule. I'm definitely going to try to snag Silver Sun if MAC restocks online.

Naked is nice and similar to wcn but when I swatched them later in the day of the release, I liked wcn more! Perhaps lighting played a part in it! And soon!

I thought I had everything I wanted from this collection, but I passed on Lorelei and now I'm seriously regretting it. It's sold out everywhere, I'm sad

WCN looks really pretty. If I had my choice between the two when I got my Naked liner, I probably would have chosen WCN instead.

Pretty sure a dupe won't be hard to find! I know in some of my cheaper palettes I have a dupe for all of the eyeshadows! But they don't have names so I can't help you much!

I definitely will! Just so mad at myself for passing. I could have gotten it in store when I went and everything was in stock.
I hate it when that happens! I was just lucky that everything remained in stock at my local counter for a couple of days---I went back something like 4 times or more. LOL.

Definitely keep your eyes peeled for a restock!
