Rumor alert: it's going around Instagram that macys is accepting presale for this mystery collection. Ms_she_aint_me posted that she's tried on the lipsticks at macys but you have to ask bc there's no display or anything yet.

Hmm, that's odd. I thought it was an online exclusive.

here are swatches of summer opal - the first is with flash & the second is just in regular lighting. it's a bit more pigmented in real life but these pictures do show the kind of shimmer/sheen it gives (at least on me). all of my swatches are done with a mashed up powder version since mine arrived broken so i don't know if the pressed version would look the same or not.

That's beautiful. I wonder how close it is to Shell Pearl beauty powder...

i don't have it for reference, but from swatches it looks to me like shell pearl bp might be a little pinker? i wore summer opal today and it was kind of a peachy color on my face.

@jenise, @toribroz: What did they do to those packages? Play football, throw them from a tower?!
I would be so angry especially since this seems to have happened to many people.
I can't believe it. So sorry for you both

Okay, I am telling myself it is no big deal I missed this collection. Would have loved the BK and the LJ, but I am going to get Melt Darling next order or try to franken that one using OCC Hoochie and maybe MAC Nicki 2. BK, well sounds like TA is similar and I can use powder to mattify it, or just invest in the matte lip mix from MAC. The super orange one would not look flattering on this face, and besides, I have SNL, it gets no love, its close enough. Besides, Scarlet Ibis is my one true orange love and none shall ever replace it as my HG orange-red. If I want full on orange, OCC has plenty to try. The powder is lovely, but I think Fairly Precious and Shell Pearl are close enough, and I have a zillion highlighters, plus I just ordered that Ambient lighting palette from Hourglass, that should keep me happy, until I can get new ballz (meterorites) on the holiday. I actually really like the Nail polish, but I am sure it can be duped, just waiting on a good recommendation there. The muted pink lippy looks lovely but generic, not worried about duping it.

Sour grapes, you say???

Lol, not sour grapes at all. I have a lot of the items you mentioned and I think you're right. They do look pretty similar if not exactly the same as the mystery collection. So I figure if I missed it, that's ok. With mac there's always another collection on the horizon ;)
