Hey, if you were only going to get one eyeshadow from this collection, Solar White is definitely the right choice

Sorry, I am pissed off. MAC Germany has delivery problems, no goods have arrived yet and no one knows when the new collections (Cool Heat, Electroflash, Sonic Chic, New View) will arrive here.

All the rest of Europe has them already and we are the fools here again

I am really frustrated and sad today. I have saved money for these collections since weeks and now no one wants my money. I called four counters today that I could reach - it is a general problem. I don't want posting today here.

Don't feel like a freak; from "Cool Heat," I got the following (sit down): Solar White eyeshadow and Swelter Slimshine.
I like them both, but I'm not drowning-in-my-own-drool-willing-to-sell-blood-to-finance-backups in love with either of them.
On my cool coloring, I prefer Crystal Avalanche to Solar White as a highlight.
And for a sheer "summery" red, I prefer Ladybug to Swelter.
Oh, well. It looks like I may get hit hard by Colourforms, Overrich and Cult of Cherry.

I hate it when that happens. Last year it was the same story with Flashtronic, it was sooo delayed to Sweden and I had saved up and waited so ling for it, so I know exactly how you feel

Oh, I feel your pain, Susanne! You should get a whole truckload of all those for free! All that waiting is really payment enough!
Just as KarenB I had the same experience last year with Flashtronics, it helped to just forget about MAC for a while..

I took a look into my MAC book and could read that we got C Shock on July 13th and Flashtronic on July 24th here last year.

So there is still hope for these July's collections...

Wow... there is one site in Germany you can order MAC from. They have Cool Heat, Blue Flame and Solar White in stock now (but not the rest or any other collections)

I just ordered them! What a pity Gulf Stream isn't available there.

But - this is at least a beginning for me, isn't it??

Awww, I am so sorry to hear that! I'm NC20 (Caucasian=white) and it shows up beautifully on me, one stroke with 217 or 239 and i get the same green as in the pot. Have you tried with a sponge applicator too?

Susanne, yaaaaaaaaaaaaaay

Over Lucky Jade, the colour changes too much and the yellow tones become more dominant.


This just further proves how different SW is on seemingly everyone! I had big hopes for it but feel a little letdown by my own result.

I'd say that most of us don't, but it's handy to keep a few around because they really can give a product a totally different look from what you'd ordinarily get with a brush or finger. Give it a try!

I agree, i fell inlove with mac brushes some time ago but i still have some sponge aplicators at home and use them sometimes. I think I mentioned this before but Vanilla pigment looks completely different on me if I use a brush or a sponge applicator.
