So I swatched  this collection yesterday- can we say glitter city? Glitter was all over my hands by the time I was through. The lipsticks and lipglasses didn't show up very well on me. I am still tempted to get a MSF but I don't know ( i already have a Perfect Topping from another collection). Also when I was swatching, I noticed that  both an eyeshadow and Lightscapade MSF seemed to have missing parts to them, like chunks had fallen out of it. Did anyone who ordered find that the products seemed a little too soft?
That's usually how MSF testers are. They're baked, so there's a lot of air pockets i the product, making them more fragile. And MAC customers aren't the most gentle when it comes to handling testers, so they're gonna be broken and a little more beat up than other powder products.

My Perfect Topping swatches VERY pink! I'm really happy about that. I heard so many people saying that this Perfect Topping was more gold and Temptalia even said hers was similar to Mary Lou-Manizer. Mine is completely different from Mary Lou-Manizer. It seems as though this Perfect Topping is going to vary widely from pan to pan.

Well, i think i'm keeping all three eyeshadows after all.

I wore Just Breathe, the warm silver blue, yesterday, and i rather liked it. And turns out I don't have any colors like it. It's not as aqua as my aqua shadows, but the hint of warm blue keeps it from looking too cold.

I keep wearing Touch The Earth because it's a great color for me, and i love the way the Mineralize lipsticks feel on the lips - so soothing for winter.

This is why I've stopped buying MES and am getting rid of most of the ones I currently have - too glittery for me.

I tried one of the blushes from this collection. Everyone was right. Horrible glitter bomb. Looked like a glitter fairy puked all over my face.
