Summer Opal - a beautiful pale beige baby rose gold with beautiful golden shimmer which is not glittery or over the top. On my skin, its a beautiful soft pale slight rose glow.
BK - It looks more pink/red on my arm, but on my pigmented lips is definitely a pinked coral with red undertones. Its actually quite beautiful on. I think it looks better & less bright if you do the dab & smoosh.
Romantic Breakdown - is such a very pretty pale dainty beige rose. I love the subtle nude/rose/pale dusty pink shade it gives my lips.

The texture is soft creamy & smooth for all products. I'm quite happy with all of it.

Really cloudy dark here today so the pics....























^^^this pic is better color wise.
Love this!!

I really prefer a denser brush to be honest. With a fan brush it barely showed up, and I'm pretty fair right now. I used my bronzer brush and applied it as a bronzer and it looked great.
Seeing as bronzers aren't supposed to have shimmer, i wouldn't recommend using it as one. But that's just my opinion.

LOL. Since I have been 0 for 4 in trying to get Lavender Jade, I will re-read your posts to make me feel better. Staying up to stalk in vain Nordies, MAC, Macys and Bloomies took a toll on my immunity and blood sugar (I'm hypoglycemic). If it turns out it was all for naught, I will remember what you wrote to comfort me. :)
Oh no! Honey you shouldn't put your health at risk! Take care of your beautiful self first, so that you can ENJOY the makeup :heart: I know it's frustrating not getting something you really want, but don't fret, MAC will re release it in another collection, lol smh! My mom always tell me, "further up the road, they don't have that!" Meaning, dont fret your spirits, there is some one out there that has it worse off than you...Some of us missed out on lavender jade, but somewhere out in the world, someone is missing meals! Chin up hun :heart:

I love shimmery bronzers :love: I love using summer opal as a blush topper as well

You're a sweetheart and so right on all points! Big hugs to you!

I know it is really insignificant in the greater scheme of things. We sometimes tend to fixate on acquiring lovely makeups, especially when they are hard to get. Sometimes part of a makeup/skincare obsession, sometimes as an escape from the harsh realities of life. I always enjoy your uplifting posts!

I just saw a MAC mua offering lavender jade to a girl for $30 but the girl already had it. I asked her if she still had it for sale. Girl tried to play me! Said she wanted $60

For those of you that have gotten the palette, how do you like it? Is it worth getting? How is the pigmentation?
