I just use my fingers honestly ... and the only base on my hand is the residue left from MAC wipes and sanitizer. Thanks for the compliments on the swatches ... I have to give the camera props for that.

That is what I have been hoping for. Still haven't seen that brush yet. I hope it arrives this weekend.

Your swatches are gorgeous as always. Thank you.

I'm really dying for this collection. Thank God I'm getting birthday money. Based on swatches, so far I want Smooth Merge and Triple Fusion MSFs, Fashion Patch, Eccentricity, and Girlish Romp MEs, Eclectic Edge Lipglass, maybe Colour Crafted Lipstick. And I'd like to get a few other things, but there are so many other things I want in July and August (Makeup Art Cosmetics collection is gonna kill me).

Dang collection! So pretty!

I went to check out the collection this morning, I ended up with Cheeky bronze that can be used as a blush for myself, for reference I should be a NC 30 (I'm a 32 for MUFE Face & Body foundation and I think it's NC 30 in MAC)

The blushes weren't still in but the MA told me they should get it this Friday, and also the pther counters will have this collection but she didn't stated a date for this.

I really didn't have the time to play as I wanted but I'll be back soon to check the whole collection when it will be available.

The swatches of the lipglasses look great!! I really like Crazy Haute

Just went to check the collection out and I love the MSF and blushes but I only bought Smooth Merge (going to Australia in Oct to see my family... gotta save!!!) I find it really unique. My MA tried some other on me but they don't really show up on me. The #131 is awesome, she used it to apply the blushes and powder on me.

The lipsticks are very pretty. I will B2M for Trimming Talk.

I like this collection a lot, the colours are really beautiful

smooth merge is the one i am most looking forward to! the raspberry strip looks so hot!

YES!!!!! I will be getting both Ecletic Edge and Funky Fusion and maybe Pretty Pattern. I'm glad that I skipped the Tri-Colored lipglasses since they were too sheer.

I saw the 131 on sale in Singapore today... for S$76, which comes out to US$52! Is it just me, or does that seem ri-donk-ulously expensive??

My MAC counter just told me this collection is going to be out in the end of july?!?!?!?!?!? WTH!

I was counting the days for the 9th to come. AND they said they won't have Euristocrats collection...why, I have no idea?!?!?

I'm bummed out. Now I have to wait a whole month for the next collection, so not fair!

 

[lindsey251]

I need help. I am about an NC35, and I want Porcelain Pink + Cheeky Bronze. I already have Moon River, and Petticoat (all for my msfs, and mineralized blushes). I still don't have Perfect Topping (my mac store is reserving one for me) so should I get Perfect Topping Or Porcelain Pink?

They better not delay this collection. It's the only one I care about til September.

Porcelain Pink msf is mine!

 

[stickles]

Some comparison swatches to tempt you!

Erin, question about Sunny by Nature...it appears from all the pictures we've seen so far to have very limited veining, so do you think there will be MSFs with more of the pink veining available? So far the swatches I've seen make me think it might be possible for some of us pale folk to wear it, if it has ample pink veining to tone down the bronze. Plus the texture of it looks to die for!

I'm not Erin, but of the 2 I've seen out as testers in stores in Singapore, neither have much pink veining

^^ yes, that is super pricey, more along the lines of their couture brushes!

Of the people who have already seen Smooth Merge, how does it compare with Blonde from BBR in terms of color and frostiness?

Thank you for your pictures and swatches stickles!

They help a lot because now I am 100% sure that I will skip the blushes because their finish looks more like the Grand Duos

than like the Sonic Chic/perm ones.

I find it kinda irritating that the blushes have more of a MSF finish and aren't more like the Sonic Chic ones. It makes the release of the blushes AND the MSFs in this collection kinda pointless because you probably won't need a MSF on top of the CC blushes because they are already shimmery enough.

I love how the raspberry strip from Smooth Merge looks but I don't like the finish of the other two stripes. I will stick to Love Thing MB or find a powder blush in the color of the middle strip later.

Stickles - love yr comparison pics thank you so much ...

daft pink looks soooo pretty .
Improvise doesnt seem sheer at all , did you apply it heavily ?
