Light Year is great, isn't it?
Was Star Wonder darker than Light Year? You didn't like its undertone? Sorry it didn't work for you. Enjoy your goodies!

I knowww lol, and I've only amassed more since that point in time. haha!LOL Your brother has no idea.
Yes, Christine's review and swatches got me, too! I was looking for a light peachy pink MSF. Surprisingly, I didn't have any MSF quite like it. I only have Porcelain Pink, By Candlelight, Perfect Topping, Refined, Stereo Rose, and Lightscapade. I think. Haha. When I saw Light Year on her site, I went. I ordered mine right after I saw her swatches. I don't wear MSF very often (hence small MSF collection), but Light Year might change that.
Light Year is just the perfect amount of peach and lightness! I looove the look of Star Wonder in the pan - it's the most gorgeous MSF because of its complex colors, but I think for my skin tone Light Year's the winner for me. I had Porcelain Pink, Blonde, and Lightscapade before HC and now Earthshine, Light Year and Center of the Universe are in my collection. I so sooo wish I had Perfect Topping, that's another one that looks absolutely yummy in the pan! I'm really loving Center of the Universe, though, too! It's definitely my fav to pair with my coral blushes. Earthshine was a fun experiment in contouring, but I'm still trying to find the right technique to apply it! I think it might get a little more use in the Fall when I get back into my plummy lips!

That sounds gorgeous peachsuns!
I am happy to hear that you like it so much and it is great that you will get a BU of LY!

Thank you, MACina.
Good thing was I ordered two Light Year. MAC sent me one yesterday. I wore it this morning, and I loved it! It showed up as peachy pink with gold shimmer. Pretty! It works as blush for me. I think many people will love this shade either as blush or highlight.
OMG, gracie!I'm glad you got the correct item later!
Just when I had startover Star Wonder, you said this. You may save me again! I have Crew, too! What should I do? What should I do? Thanks duckrodeo!

My haul! You can tell I already tried on the lipsticks lol. I love how Astral looks in this pic! I like the way my swirl looks in sky
I wanted to show you this combo I used today! I snapped this right before work. Its Fire Sign with Now in Season lipgelee. I love how it turned out, I love FS so much! It's def a red I can wear without feeling self-concious. And it pulls either red or pink with different lippies on top! I'm excited to do some combos with Venus! It's like a pinker gem of roses on me
Here's a closer pic in different lighting, sorry about the large pores on my cheeks...this lighting gave my face a weird color. And a tan seems to emphasize my pores n freckles.
And heres a swatch of my Sky...

Loving all the photos of the swirls!!

Any tips on veining to achieve this? Cut a caper (b2m) I will be 32 in August too! I am also expecting my third baby then too! I am looking forward to getting the new pro palettes as part of my up and coming birthday haul! Liesierre-what serums and masks do you use? I am loving serums at the mo esp clarins hydraquench serum

The dark blue in sky is pretty intense and opaque. You will definitely need 1 with more of the lighter blue. And congrats on your third little one coming in August! :bouquet:

You're so sweet! Thanks doll! Mufe hd foundation works wonders. I just can't seem to get past the redness n pores on my cheeks. That's why I'm not to sure about using these msfs. Cause off the pigmentation I'd prob layer them with blushes and I'm afraid it will show my pores even more. I'm happy to show you pics. I didn't see much of sky on here, its such a pretty blue!

It really is....for me this one is quite unique because I do not a similar shade (as a MES) in my collection yet.I can not wait to get mine!
And the color payoff seems to be very nice as well.

Yeah normally I gravitate towards the purples, plums and pinks with a few neutrals thrown in for good measure but sky just seems so unique- it looks different and multi faceted in all the swatches I have seen. I have green eye tho so I don't know if it would suit me

Exactly!!!
Depending on the swirls and the light it can look more light blue,dark blue or even a little turquoise

Thank you SO much for saying that! I was all set to go get Sky, but I have pompous blue, which I am in LOVE with!! I also have a bu of it! Yay! You talked me out of it! This look is gorgeous on you!!Ok folks - Now that I've worn Sky I'm thinking it reminds me of Big T - so if you've been collecting for awhile and already have Big T, Cool Heat, Pompous Blue or something along those lines you really don't need it. I also found that the frost really didn't transfer onto my eyelid for any significant period of time. I like Big T more, and this will probably be going back. In the midst of getting ready for the evening I had to run an errand so I'm not dressed but my face is mostly done here. Natural sunlight, colors are true

Is it crazy that not only I want to order every single one of the mineralize products in this collection, I'm also considering geting backups for the MSFs? They are so pretty. I'm thinking I'll order them from Debenhams (provided they have the collection up first) and then go and handpick my back ups, so I have two different ones of eash MSF. Crazy, right?

Nope!
I'm selling a bunch of stuff on eBay at the moment, and if it all sells then you bet I'm getting all the mineralise items! I've been trying to narrow down my list but I love EVERYTHING so it's damn near impossible!
Plus, think of all the Debenhams points
(I have £30 worth to spend wooooooo)
