It does look chalky. I hope it turns out nicer on fairer complexions at least. But the shade itself is pretty.
And yup, team peachy

Some photos show them but no blogger has posted any information about them. I was looking forward to them and the lipsticks.

Ok, good. I thought maybe I had just imagined them and was a little concerned about my memory lol.

This Could Be Fun isn't at all what I'd hoped. I should have known, MAC often calls cool toned pink lipsticks 'violet'. I wanted actual violet, not very slightly purple leaning pink!
What I Fancy blush and Long Legged & Fabulous are the only things that jumped out at me a little, but I don't know that I need them. Everything else I probably have dupes for, or near enough. The eyeshadow palette looks decent, but I think one of MUFE's little 9 pan palettes would be a better investment.
I may end up getting one or two things, but I don't think I'll stalk for this. Shame as I was so into it when it was announced.

You're not alone in the This Could Be Fun debacle. I'm disappointed and so is October. Whoever was asking for a proper purple blush is disappointed full stop. I was actually looking forward to getting this blush, because it's purple. I could whinge about this all night, but I need to sleep.

Ooh I didn't realize this collection was launching so soon. I think I've lost interest though. I may still get the x9 palette. Maybe a blush or two. Maybe a gloss or two. But nothing looks like a must have for me.

I love the lipsticks that she suggested. Those were the ones I was intending on picking up anyways. Haul will be 4 lipsticks, 3 blushes, and 1 lip pencil.

i'm kinda mehh about everything now that i've seen the swatches. nothing is really standing out for me. i have so many similar fuschia/magenta pinks in my stash already. i think i'll just grab the embrace me lip liner and call it a day since i already have both the lipstick and gloss.

Swatches have at least now given me a "must haves" vs "wants" list now. I like pretty much everything from this collection but am severely limited in money lol. I'm absolutely getting The Fashion Flock Lipstick, Be Silly Lipstick, Spring Flock Blush. I also really want Flocking Fabulous Lipstick, and What I Fancy Blush...and maybe Have Your Cake Lipstick lol.

so many bright colors! I have not touched MAC in a long time and this collection just may make me come out of my hole. I'm interested in Life’s a picnic, Spring flock (i've got nothing like it) and be silly L/S

Hhmm... I'm so torn on This could be fun. I really wanted a violet blush. I am hoping it really is purple. I my get UD bittersweet as a consolation. I like Have Your Cake as well. Nice to meet you is nice, but a maybe for now. Oh' my is nice, but I may opt for Frankly Scarlet instead.
