Do you have Stone l/s or Styled In Sepia l/s? I wonder how much more grey-toned Deep Rooted is compared to the two I mentioned.

Horrible store lighting,but this is Dreampot and Dew on NC44 skin. Let's just say I bought neither. Lol

Thank you so much, Naomi! I'm skipping on Deep Rooted. It's too grey. I have enough of a hard time in making Styled In Sepia borderline flattering.
Did you pickup anything from this collection?

You're very welcome! I bought Deep Rooted and 4eva for myself and Dew for a friend. I really wish the frosts would launch already. Must be some kind of delay.

I went into my local MAC on a whim, and they got the new shadows! Haven't swatched any yet, but I saw them in the box as the MUAs were setting them up. From first impressions, Bright Pink is...BRIGHT. Remember Melton Mauve? It's like Melton Mauve and neon pink pigment had a baby. New Crop reminds me of the Starflash shade One-Off and Jealousy Wakes, like their long-lost sibling. Ruddy reminds me at first glance of Viscera by Rituel de Fille, and since I'd been interested in the RdF shade Ruddy might fill that lemming for a better price.

Weird detail: Bright Pink was in an eyeshadow-sized box. Maybe Cherry Topped was meant to be the blush (name and description), and Bright Pink was meant to be the eyeshadow? In hindsight, this is really confusing.
Oh, and Teal Appeal reminds me of the Starflash eyeshadow Strike A Pose.

Update on the eyeshadows!!!
All 5 shades of blush are in eyeshadow pots. I went to 2 different locations, both of them had this. Seems like they're being marketed similar to the pressed pigments in the UD Electric palette: They *can* be used as eyeshadow, but technically they're labelled as blushes. (I heard you can B2M for them like eyeshadows at some places, but I don't know if that's for sure everywhere.)
I'm posting my thoughts after swatching a good deal. These shadows seem pretty true to pan and are incredibly pigmented.
Fashion's Field Day, Suspiciously Sweet, Up at Dawn: Kinda merge together in my brain. Nice creamsicle shades.
How Royal: Bright and beautiful blue! Makes Electric Eel look murky.
In the Shadows: More oomph and depth than Deep Truth.
New Crop: Reminiscent of One-Off, Jealousy Wakes, even Melody (remember that from the early 2000s?)
Nice Energy, Shock Factor: Lotsa limes. Good to see something that surpasses the space left by Bitter.
Ruddy: Not as cool-toned or dark as I'd hoped, but as a bright ruddy red, it lives up to the name well.
Teal Appeal: A nice metallic teal, but nothing exceptional for me. Reminds me of Strike a Pose.
Zinc Blue: Deeper than Atlantic Blue, but just as vibrant.
Bright Pink: Lives up to the name, kinda like the UD Electric shade, Savage.
Bright Response: Wow is this orange.
News Flash!: Dupes the UD Electric shade Slowburn. Lovely neon coral!
Never Say Never: Reminds me of Bite of an Apple from the Venomous Villains collection. Very pigmented and has a nice pinky undertone.
Saucy Miss: Cool pink, almost looks mauve.
I only brought Ruddy home with me, but I might have to return...

Did they have any of them in pans? What about the dazzleshadows?
Anyone know if they'll be available in pan form?
Thanks for sharing your descriptions!

Thank you very much. So far I have How Royal, New Crop and Up at Dawn on my list. I check every day to see if these are out. Very excited to see them.

I don't check for pans, TBH, so I don't know on that front. If these shadows will be perm, I should hope so!
They had dazzleshadows. Not really my realm either, but they have them!
I'm still head-scratching over the way the blushes were released.

My MAC store manager said they will also be in pans. Good news for me because the price difference is incredible here. $8 for a pan, $19 for individuals -- that's $11 for packaging!
