WOW that is awesome but I like the $50 as since then I have been trying to limit my purchasing to $50-60 per month but yeah I knew the MSF for colour craft would blow that out of the water cause MSF are my favorite thing from MAC.

So I am really glad I didn't buy out the entire collection before my birthday! I knew something good would come out of it

I am really tempted to purchase Daft Pink, because I have nothing similar at all. All my blushes are copper/coral/dark pink. However, I am just not sure if a light pink would suit my skin tone, which is NC40 (for ref: http://i32.tinypic.com/wwaucg.jpg )
To those of you who have already bought Daft Pink, do you think it would do me any justice being tanned and all, i.e. is it worth it? I have been advised previously that pink blushes apparently should be avoided for Indian skin tones, so it would be a risk. Unfortunately, I don't have time to visit a MAC store

Hmm.. decisions!
Thank you in advance!

I got a Redhead MSF and a 165 brush at the Branson Tanger CCO so they are out there! They had Blonde and Brunette MSF(for those looking) so those brushes must be at other locations.

What brush do you use with the MF blushes? I tried it with the 131 and it didn't show up on my skin (NC25-30). I was trying to convince myself I need Daft Pink or Porcelain Pink but it only shown up an a sheen. I have Blonde & Brunette, do I need Daft Pink or Porcelain Pink? I'm heading over to MAC in a few hours to pink up Rose Romance & Brave New Bronze lipstick. I know I'm behind on picking those up!

I ended up with Colour Craft l/s, Way to Love l/s, 131, and the 226 yesterday.

I use a khabuki brush, the 187 or 131.

I went to Nordy's today to pick up a few items for a CP and even though I tried my hardest to put my blinders on to this collection I had to check it out.

I really didn't like the mineralize blushes as when swatched they just looked like gold/silver shimmer on me with a slight hint of color. And I am NW15!! PASS!

The lipsticks were all pretty but dupable as they are very similar to a lot of recent LE lipsticks. Another PASS! They were sold out of Trimming Talk which was the only one that I was really interested in so thankfully I could pass that as well.

I didn't even swatch the mineralize eye shadows although they look really pretty.

I do agree that the lipglasses are very pretty and much better than the Sugarsweet ones. Electric Edge is the by far the standout of this collection for me. A very pretty and unique light lavender shade. I can't wait to use this with via veneto.

I liked the MSF but the striped ones were pretty shimmery. If you all are debating Sunny By Nature then try Revlon Suntan Matte Mineral Finishing powder. They look like almost exact dupes and the revlon one is much cheaper. Here is a picture:

I ended up putting a few items on hold until Friday when the Nordstrom sale starts so I could get my triple points with my Nordy's card. I ended up holding cheeky bronze, electric edge, smooth merge, triple fusion, & the 226 brush.

I am still debating if I want to keep my order but I just know that I would kick myself if I missed the MSFs.

I got to check out the collection and it's quite gorgeous.

The only thing I didn't understand is why they used random products for the promo picture and none from the actual collection. Just doesn't make sense if they wanted to promote the products in the collection.

!!! Why can't Macys or Nordstorms let you use coupons--or create ones for that matter, that you can use towards cosmetics (especially for credit card holders) Gosh, that would help a lot

Nordstrom does give Nordstrom notes for their credit card or MOD holders based on points for how much you have purchased. I do wish that they would do more discounts for beauty stuff.

Hi everyone! Hope everyone's loving their Colour Craft goodies

I bought the 226 and absolutely loving it! Also bought Improvise and Cheeky & Cheerful. Really love how Improvise looks corally and pretty

But I'm not too sure about C&C, it seems too orange on me even though I tried applying it quite lightly with the 188 and 187. I'm NC 25 by the way.

I'm wondering would Warm Blend be too dark for me as a blush or a contour? It's so pretty that I may just get it to use as an eyeshadow

Thanks!
