Highlighter only unless you are fair maybe NC40 and under and the blue undertones will kill you in that shimmery form.

Triple Fusion looks so good on your hand, I want it, knowing it is bad for me, I would have to layer a blush under that to make it show but wait, I do that anyway, Why am I not getting this

Because MAC knows people are scared of highly pigmented blush, not you and I but and a lot of us but you know. How many times have we heard that a blush is too pigmented on here. I wonder if Style Demon will even sell.

I can't show you a swatch but I can tell you that they are different, I just compared those two yesterday because I was planning to buy Costa Chick
It is a great color but very bright, orangy coral, while Made With Love is a coral but with more pink tones.

My list so far is... Cheeky Bronze, Daft Pink, Funky Fusion l/g and Girlish Romp MES. I'm tempted by a couple other lip colours, but I really need to pass.
As for BB, I was going to have a look at the cream eye shadow and creamy lip colour. The prices are far too expensive, so I really don't hit the non-MAC lines often.

I like redhead better than TF, better texture too. Ditto for Improvise versus Nuance. Thanks for the compliments!

I actually like improvise more!!!!!!!!!! Me too!!!!!!!!!!! I have been on the search for nuance b/c I missed out on it, too. But now that I'm seeing this swatch, I want improvise so much more! This confirms it. Triple Fusion is officially off my list, and Improvise has been added on. (I really hope I don't change my mind when I see triple fusion though especially with my frequent impulse purchases lol) I want so much from this collection (I love ANYTHING mineralize) so the more I can take off my list means more $$$ to the next collections. |

Made With Love is the sweetest prettiest color. I don't think there is a current pinky coral color like this available.
Improvise on my skin was a really pretty true natural peachy color.

Oh, I have to share with you guys what I bought non mac that I am in LOVE with & will never do my makeup (or no makeup) without EVER again
Chanel's Le Blanc Sheer Illuminating Base - Holy Cow, I put it on the back of my hand to test & fell in love with the look & the smell. It makes the skin look so radiant & even, flawless & beautiful. I know that it has illuminating particles in it, but I don't want to say that there is actually any visible shimmer. Made my skin look amazingly even skintone/flawless. My hubby noticed it too & loved the smell so he bought it on the spot for me
Oh, with macs PandP trans. finishing powder = fabu!
