Strangely I really liked Morange on me... I will just check the orange reds out, when I am at MAC. I wouldn't buy it unswatchedGirl don't do it! Especially if you're not into oranges. Every time you look at it and don't wear it you'll be like why did I buy that?
I'd start with a drugstore orange. Because once the initial excitement of something new is over you might realize it's not for you. I bought Morange (which doesn't last on me and gets into every lipline) and realized I'm not into super warm lippies.

Wow. Those blushes are horrible, IMO. Soooo glad I skipped.
Kinda Disappointed that Ripe Peach rarely shows up. I really wanted that blush
I really like the Bellgreens palette. I'm actually really tempted to order it but if I'm going to get it, I'd rather swatch in person. I'm really picky about the texture of eyeshadows, especially for that price point.
Victoriana and Opera look almost identical. Opera is just a hair darker. Victoriana looks a bit pinker sheered out, but at full opacity, there isn't much difference. They are both really pretty though.

Yeah this happened to me with my oranges. Luckily I only have two MAC oranges, Lady Danger and Mangrove, and they have enough red in them that they look fine on me. The rest were drugstore.Girl don't do it! Especially if you're not into oranges. Every time you look at it and don't wear it you'll be like why did I buy that?

Also happened with Watch Me Simmer and VG Nicki. With the right wardrobe they may have looked ok, but I don't have any clothes that would really look right with either. Most of my clothes are fairly dark and they just make my lips look like they've been colored in with highlighters.

I'm almost disappointed that I'm no longer interested in any items from this collection. I really love the packaging for some reason. I wish the lipsticks would've been more interesting and less dupe-y. I'm glad I didn't get RP because the pigmentation isn't really there... I learned my lesson with Sideshow You.

Aww well there goes AB from my list. I love the idea of a lavender ombré blush, but it doesn't look like if was executed well

I'm right there with you. I thought I was done but I definitely want Chlorophyll, the Sin lipglass, and ,maybe the green eye shadow pallet.

I'm really disappointed in those blushesI hate when you are really rooting for a brand to do better and they keep letting you down.

I did just get Sin lipglass though to go over the lippy in the hopes that it'll help it from being so darn drying on me.

Mac usually disappoints me with their LE blushes and the ombre blushes. Now I've learned to be cautious and look in store.I'm almost disappointed that I'm no longer interested in any items from this collection.

I can't also for BBQ Sassy!
Mac is pretty disappointing with their blushes and eyeshadow palettes with the past LE collections. I just get their lipsticks most of the time for the LE packaging.

Did anyone purchase any of the nail polishes in this collection? They were more of afterthought for me but I think I might want one or two of them now. I just haven't seen swatches anywhere.

Looking at these swatches and videos, no lie, my feelings are hurt.
