I regret not buying BK and the green NP after seeing the last pictures

I just had a live chat and they told me that Harrods and Selfridges are getting the collection but they're not sure when.

I really like the palette, it's not so difficult to use. There is some fallout from the 1st shade but it's really glittery, so I think that's not unusual. I used it yesterday and today to highlight the inner corner of my eyes. The only think that I don't like is the size of the pans.

So this is Toying Around blotted to look a little more matte. I'm still debating it I need BK too??

I dont know if anyone else feels the same but this is the first MAC collex that I keep changing my mind about the products :-/

Not the first Mac collection this has happened with but I can't make up my mind about the lipsticks. I keep going back and forth about whether to skip them altogether.

Curious to know how does Lavender Jade compare to Dodgy Girl and how does Burmese Kiss compare to Reel Sexy? Forbidden Sunrise looks amazing! Any dupes for it?

These all look great on you. Which lipstick color are you wearing in the first pic?

Me too--the problem is that I can't really swatch-compare them to things I already have (or want).

If items were available for more than a second, I'd love to swatch Summer Opal next to the Becca SSP pressed powders. It's stalk/order MAC, or miss out. I hate buying with the idea that I'm going to return/sell. Everyone's swatches have been so helpful, though. I really appreciate everyone bringing them here in one place.

I'm glad I have another chance to get the lipsticks. I could have got BK and FS but thought I didn't really need it but now I live with regret lol. Hopefully it's all worth the wait.

These types of bold bright colors are right up my alley...but I am staying strong and skipping the bright lipsticks. I just bought some of those Ruby Kisses Matte Lipsticks from the Beauty Supply store ($2.99 each!!) and a few of them look A LOT like these. Sticking to my list of Summer Opal, the nude lippie, and 1 or 2 of the nail polishes.

Still no restock on Lavender Jade... I think not being able to get it makes me realise how much I fricking want it! =P.....
I wish I lived close enough to check counters.. but there would have been none knowing my luck after all of the fuss... haha!! :/

The collection is not available on counters, keep checking Selfridges, they should get it soon. They gave me a number for the MAC counter there and I might call them later.

This looks amazing on you. Aslong as you don't have a backup of Toying Around I say get it. To me they seem like the same colour from swatches. If you are watching the pennies then you don't really need it.

I am starting to question if LJ will look nice on me. I worry that it would give me Dave Chappelle lips. ( meaning making me look like I have neon purple chalk on my lips).

I was thinking the same lol I don't want the Tyrone Biggums lips

 

[Vandekamp]

I've had the same issue with DG. I think the only way we can pull of DG/LJ is by using a dark liner or by darkening it with another lippy. It would work with Rich Purple Chromagraphic pencil... EDIT: excuse the lack of makeup... It's sunday

Very pretty Marsha. LJ seems more of a neon purple to me. I guess I will get it though. I do use a dark liner with DG too and probably will with LJ. Lol.

Lol. I know right. Does LJ seem brighter than DG to you. Seems as though neon colors are in fashion this Spring. I went to the Coach store yesterday and was surprised to see so many neon colors. I'm talking about bright, bright orange, pink and yellow handbags.

So bk looks alot like force of love... Which is one of my favs. In fact I dont wear it much anymore bc I dont want to run out. A comparison swatch would be nice but I think I am going to get it. These types of pinky corals look the best on me.
