Hope you get well, STV578.
Now go open that box and tell us how the textures are on the e/s. How pretty are the lipglasses and what are the dupes/lookalikes, if any.
talking about makeup will help you feel better
Makeup has a way of making you feel better, I tell ya.
I can't wait till I go home and see all the reviews coming in. There will be more, right?,

I wish I could report back to you on everything! I'm at work, the box is at home! But ya, make-up definitely does have therapeutic properties, may be the reason why I have so much!!!

Lol! Thanks!
Ya, the pj's were very PG, I have two kids, they have a way of ensuring no further siblings will arrive in the near future!!!
And for some reason, that made me think of the episode of Friends when Monica was really sick and congested, but wanted to get intimate with Chandler, rubbing the vicks vaporub in a rather seductive manner!!!

This Pollinator sounds totally passable. I will just use Bold and Brazen and Revved up for my peach.

I know how you feel Tish. Happens to me on a frequent basis.
How do you like Buckwheat? I was going to pass on this collection but Pollinator and Buckwheat caught my attention. I am not normally a fan of browns but it seems pretty. How is the texture?
Decided to pass on the powders. Thanks to Audrey I have been "shopping my stash" and having fun playing with my Mineralize Sheersheen powders. Especially Lucent.

Those two were so pretty Pollinator and Buckwheat....The texture of BW is Frost so it is very nice ...I did not try Pollinator but it was a very pretty corally pink
BW is more bronzey brown than GO is in comparison ...but the payoff is awesome

I went and checked out the collection today. Here is my mini review. I posted it on my site, so I just copied and pasted it.
Créme de Miel- So pretty, the texture is like butter. I swatched this beside Nylon to see if I could just get nylon later but this had such a nice shimmer instead of nylon which has a frost look. I don’t usually go for the highlight colors in Mac collections and I passed on soft force for Créme de Miel. I’m happy I did.
Pollinator- Takes a few tries to get pan color without a base. I’m sure an orange base would help the color pick up more. I swatched it beside paradisco and found this had more a true peach tone, paradisco had more pink in it. I picked this one over paradisco.
Buckwheat- It comes out a little crumbly but true to color. The pretty gold glitter is what made it stand out for me. I swatched it beside satin taupe and it’s way more dark then satin taupe and satin taupe has a light sheen of mauve to it.
She’s a star Lipglass- Boring to me, I swatched it and thought it was totally passable
Queen Bee Lipglass- Very pretty orange, I swatched it beside gold rebel and queen bee is way more pigmented.
Buzz Lipglass- My fav, I thought it was gonna be to dark for my crazy pale skin but it’s just so pretty. I’m wearing it right now.
Highlight powders- I didn’t even swatch these as they looked to yellow/orange to me. I’ll stick to my Nars Albatross.
Honey Skin Salve- Just feels so luxurious. I just want to put some on my feet and put some socks on and wake up with the softest feet ever. The smell isn’t super honeyish but I didn’t get that much floral when I smelled, and floral stuff gives me a headache.
Body wash- It smelt nice, but I break out a lot with smelly soaps so I passed.
Hand Cream- It was also nice but nothing speical. I don’t need another hand cream.
Naked Honey Fragrance- This one was a nice scent but I never bought a mac perfume and this was just nice, nothing super unique.
Africanimal Fragrance- Not my type of fragrance, to strong.
Overall a nice collection of neutral colors. It goes nice after having tons of bright colors in the Style Warriors Collection.
I'm gonna go upload all my swatches to the swatch forum now.

I checked out the whole collection, and decided to buy just the two fragrances. I don't need any more bath/body products, and the makeup items didn't really stand out to me. Every color seemed extremely close to something I already have and almost never use. I might give Pollinator a second look, since it is sheer/buildable and rather flattering on my skin tone. When I swatched Buckwheat, I thought it looked like Twinks and Antiqued (my two least used dark browns) had a baby. So I passed on that instantly. Creme de Miel is pretty, very pretty. But I am so in love with Solar White and Femme Fi as highlight colors, I don't need to buy others, especially since I bought backups of each.
I did swatch the highlight powders and they really are nothing special, to me at least. They seem a bit too orange/yellow for me, and as someone mentioned above, I'm also attached to my NARS Albatross! I do think both of them would look amazing on deeply tanned or very dark skin.
It seems like I might be the only one, but I LOVE the two fragrances! I am not someone who usually likes floral fragrances or woodsy/spicy ones either, but the two of these just smell so good to me! I love honey and it is probably the sweet honey undertones in both the fragrances that hooked me. They are rather unique fragrances compared to what was at other counters where I shopped. I'd tell anyone to at least test them, you might be surprised!
