Are there any particular colors that you look good in or have a preference for?
These items are the ones that stood out to me: Cheeky Bronze MSF, Sunny By Nature MSF, Nice Mix Up l/g, Pretty Pattern l/g, Made With Love l/s, Daft Pink MB, Cheek & Cheerful MB (similar to Cheeky Bronze, you don't need both), Improvise (similar to Fun & Games).
Not going to comment on eyeshadows because I think those are really up to your own preference.
Bear in mind that I do have my preferences too, so you may or may not agree with what I liked.

Who do I go with, the greatest in the world or the newer heavyweight?

Yeah me too. I think I want to go to the MAC store and go see the Love That Look collection and see if I want all of it. I'm thinking about getting Warm Blend since it's perfect for my complexion.

I won't go back for lippies which I thought of, but maybe when starflash comes back in I will B2M. Even though the lipglosses are beautiful, I won't do those either and I did post that I found frozen dream l/g so that killed my lemming for EE. So in essence, arrivederci Colour Craft. |

So I took a whirlwind tour of 3 MAC counters today after I ended work.
Here's what I got:
Counter #1: Made With Love l/s (B2M)
Counter #2: Travel Exclusive Bronze face palette (this one's for Sally
), #131
Counter #3: Smooth Merge MSF
I'm so glad I could get my hands on Smooth Merge, that MSF is sold out everywhere!
I also really want Assemblage, but that is sold out everywhere too, so I'm just waiting for it to be launched at the last counter in Singapore.
I caved and bought the #131 at that counter because it was the last piece there, and last pieces are always particularly tempting.
Didn't receive any presents for my birthday this year
, so I bought myself some MAC goodies.

Wait a minute, hold the phone. You don't have Warm Blend.
Warm Blend is probably the best $27 you can spend on this collection.
You seriously need to be spanked, seriously
Sorry you didn't get any presents, Winnie,

So glad you said this about Warm Blend!
I just ordered it last night, after going back and forth for a while. I wasn't sure if it was going to suit my rather fair skin, so I tested my Gold Deposit yesterday (haven't worn it in ages!), and it was so pretty that I figured Warm Blend could only be better.

Soooo Warm Blend isnt too similar to brunette or warmed msf? I dont really think about subtle differences in color, if i have 2 light pink msf's they are probably pretty similar, same goes for brown ones.
I just really wanna buy stuff online, I dont want to go to the mac store (well i dont want to wait to go there, since i cant make it yet) so im relying on everyones opinions here

I understand that you want opinions...But to be honest you really have to pick what you like...Not what anyone thinks you will like...you will be disappointed everytime if you do....IMO whatever colors you are wanting you should try to pick the MSF's in that color range. All colors look different on everyone...I personally do not think Warm Blend looks anything like Warmed or Brunette on the skin...and I love SBN equally as much as Warm Blend...it's all preference and I think if you can go to the store you really should if nothing but to swatch colors then come home think about what you saw and liked and place your order online if you don't get them at the time you are there

I thought the swatches of Warm Blend were much prettier than Brunette, so that's why I opted for WB...keep in mind, though, I purchased WB for use as a e/s, so I was also looking for a greater color variance in the stripes, which WB has over Brunetter.

Yeah I should just suck it up and go to the store.

OK so I decided to get some things from this collection even though I shine enough on my own...for blush style demon and daft pink, for the e/s the lucky winner is fashion patch (I liked this one since the first promo pics), for msf trio it's going to be smooth merge, for msf it's porcelain pink (because I just love it so much) and I'm going to go ahead and splurge on the 131. Hopefully I'll be able to get these products to work for me.

I totally know how you feel though, I have no choice but to rely on the swatches and opinions on specktra. It's frustrating, for sure. But I think Tish is right about Warm Blend, because to you it may not be different enough from Warmed or Brunette to warrant getting it, but for other people, there is a clear difference btwn the two.
