This blush looks like a more intense Sweetness blush - my favorite blush of all times. I have Rhubarb & Apple Red & Salsa Rose & they are equally intense but are really really pretty on lightly.

Hmmm. You just may be right! I'm NW20. You may have convinced me to try it just as you said. Thanks!

Trust me, they can be very very pretty on. They also look great applied to the apples of the cheeks over a neutral blush like Blushbaby, Emote etc.

Rhubarb blush is like whoaaaaa intense in the pan but lovely on

I am loving Cut a caper! I am definitely getting it. I am not buying any of the blushes though... I don't think the peach one will show up on me either since I am NC25 also...
So no special packaging with this collection?

Girls! I'm so excited! I just came home from my store, and I chatted with one of the nicest MAs I've ever met about upcoming collections and events and he told me there will be one for TT and he already put down my name on a scrap of paper because there are no lists for it yet!
And then coming home I found the swatches. Gorgeous! I'm such a happy MAC Addict tonight...

Thank you, bbgillian!

My Highland Honey and Cut a Caper look stunning!!!

I cannot wait to see the rest of this collection.

I might have to change my VV wish list again.

That's exactly how I felt when I saw the pic

Can we have this collection now please

 

[elegant-one]

I was just thinking how looking at a picture of a lipstick tube gets us so excited

Only those of us here understand that

Thanks again for the pics, bbgillian!

I think I will skip the pink one and get the peach one since it is nice on cool skin. First peach blush!

That lipstick looks awesome, and I don't even wear shades like that typically. It's definitely on my list along with the gloss.

I'm SO freaking excited for this collection now!!!!

But, I don't want to skip over VV- I want both. Right now.

Having seen a few things, I'm ready for more... I can't remember all the names that were being thrown around, but I definitely recall there was something called "The Faerie Glen". Bring that on!

There was a picture of Faerie Glen a few pages back- it's a nude.

i wonder how the two blushes compare to the hello kitty ones, b/c tippy is hot pink and fun and games is peachy....that lipstick is gorgeous!

I'm right there with ya. Luckily, I'm pretty loyal to MAC, so it is just VV and TT.

What would I do without you? I went back and found it... Was hoping for something silvery, or perhaps a dazzle finish in a light purple-blue... On the other hand, I have 6697 purple lippies and 3 nudes (srsly- Blankety, Plink! and Call My Bluff, which I picked up on a whim last week), so this might be a blessing. Like you, I'm gonna buy it because I need to own whatever has that name.
