Even if it's a LE item, I assume MAC will make samples for customers. I would hate to have to return something like this and have it binned.

My mom is allergic to bismuth oxychloride too..all she wore was BE and she didn't have any problems and then all of a sudden patches of skin on her face would become red and almost rash-like looking

ladies (and gents), i'm dying to see any swatches or comparisons of femmi-fi e/s vs. gold dusk pigment/gorgeous gold/rice paper.

i think someone mentioned that it's more gold than rice paper (thank you very much, btw

Gosh I am so confused. :\ I posted before but I guess that went overlooked, no worries. I know everyone is fretting on what to get and what not to get. lol
But my B.E. mineral shadows look so much like the Neo Sci Fi shadows AND the Solar Bits, don't they?

Im wondering if I should just pass on it as a whole and just get the Volcanic Ash Exfoliator and Electro lippie.

Okay, so with all the reviews on the mask and the exfoliator I think I'm just gonna get two of each and leave it at that. They're just too awesome and limited not to stock up on! I'll hopefully get samples of all the bits and will stay far away from Magnetic Fields... I have some faith in me to resist!

Dangit, I realized I forgot about the polishes... Grrr, dang this collection being hotter than I expected!

Ugghhh...I want that Volcanic Exfoliator so freaking bad..like now!!! When ohh when are they gonna stock it. I got the Microfine Lip and I love it. It makes your lips feel really soft. So now I am ordering 2 more for backups, but I am waiting for the Volcanic Exfoliator to stock so I can order it all together I am also gonna get 2 of those. I am scared that by the time they stock it the Microfine Lip will be sold out..

I only swatched this on my hand but from the looks of it it has no reddish undertone, its just a gorgeous brown (think woodwinked)

I think thats correct, it is more gold/yellower than rice paper, gold dusk is more of a baby yellow its kind of whiteish light yellow not a fab highlight color to me, gorgeous gold is the most vibrant yellow of the bunch but it can be applied sheer.

Ah well, here is my review (i just used this time- definitely loving it). As a side note my skin is normal/combination with some rough bumpy patches in some areas that many exfoliators can't seem to get rid of (I NEED a facial!)

The first thing I noticed is that this stuff is sticky, blacker than black, and very gritty. The smell is earthy, with a hint of that classic mac skincare scent. Prior to hopping in the shower, I rubbed this into my skin gently and let it sit for a couple of minutes. I hopped into the shower and rinsed it off, still gently rubbing.
The end result? My skin is luminescent and bump free! Seriously, I am in love with this exfoliator! Methinks I need a backup!!

And a pic so you can see how hot this is on (lol)
Yes, I have a towel on

I hear ya there, but I think I will get alot of use out of it in the fall and winter. And I actually envision myself using it alot more with things like French Grey, Innuendo, Copperplate, and the N Collection shadows than I do with the Neo Sci-Fi ones, whatever the season.

perhaps magnetic fields isn't what ppl think of for spring, but we are nearly into hot summer months so I definitely think this will be a fantastic colour for a bronzey eye look!

Jeez louise im thinking about getting the 5th e/s I overlooked (the only one i've not ordered yet is Time & Space but with swatches and descriptions of it being woodwinked but better MAKES ME WANT IT!

The eye shadows are gorgeous...think beautiful smokey eye, or using Magnetic Fields along the lash lines next to eyeliner. imo...those colors are timeless colors that you will be able to use perfectly paired or along with other colors

Since this thread is very long I really don't have time to go through everything, so I'll just ask again.

What is the model wearing on the promo pic for Future Earth? It's absolutely gorgeous!

Lol, I'm thinking about Time & Space, too now! Love the fact that it's like Woodwinked...but I'm wondering how close it is to Tempting. They're all in that same family.
