Woohoo! Mine shipped yesterday! It will supposedly arrive by Thursday. I can't wait!!



I placed my order a day after you I think. Got the notification around 1am and it's not updated on the USPS website yet.

Here you go, Twinkle. They definitely do not look the same.
Lucy looks more like MAC's Cheeky Bronze MSF; except that Lucy has more luminosity than Cheeky Bronze.




Oh yeah for sure, nothing alike @Twinkle_Twinkle. I think I like Lucy more

I have Lucy and I love it. I wanted Cheeky Bronze for years now but i just wasn't in a rush to get it. Thanks @cocomomo80 for this lovely swatch. I differently don't need it.

Thankyou! I got mine off eBay for 78 dls and it lasted for several days before i got it, it think it was because it didnt have the sticker on the back with the name of it, it was only listed as "illuminating gelee" the person who sold it to me didnt know it was modern mercury otherwise im sure it wouldnt have lasted as long as it did, and i dont know if you have instagram, but there are 2 for sale over there and there is one in the clearance bin for 60dls but that one is used

I just got cheeky bronze last week. I don't know how I never noticed it before

but on my skin it looks totally different than the swatch above it is coral with golden shimmer

Which Cheeky Bronze is it? The old release (which is the one I have) or the newer release (with the new packaging)?
I've heard this statement before regarding how some MAC MSFs seem to look a little different than what they had been prior.
But according to Google search, some Cheeky Bronze swatches either look pinkish or golden.
However, I do think it could look different based upon skin color and undertones.

No two msfs ever look the same i think this more depends on the skin color and undertones

I have some old and the same new ones and do not see much of a difference

this cheeky bronze is in the new packaging but it looks like most of the swathes i found online

My Topaz Chameleon search is over too! And my Guerlain Cruel Gardenia's. I'm putting myself on a no-buy (more likely low-buy) to prepare my poor bank account for holiday collections!

I think there's a heat wave in the CB for $90.

Thankyou! Well, what something its worth it for one might not be for someone else, what is important is that it makes you happy, i have becca champange pop and by swatches i have seen they are almost identical and wisper of gilt is coming back and this one and heatwave are supposedly dupes for each other.. And still wanted heatwave because i love the color, the formula is amazing IMO and the design is sooo pretty

Agreed. Plus sometimes you just need to see it for yourself.
