Just about to place my order, added Soft & Gentle and Petticoat. Now I'm having a major dilemma about the Sheersheen powders because we haven't seen any swatches etc and the colours listed on the website are never too accurate. Tempted by Sheerbronze and Silver Aura but I'm worried what they might look like...

Very soft, I wear them over a blush.

I'm on live chat now, asking about the colours! Apparently Sheerbronze wouldn't be too dark on me (NC15) but would definitely make me look bronzed, maybe out of season as it's nearing winter. Silver Aura sounds more like a highlighter, muted pinky beige with a silver sheen.

I just can't decide though, I'll probably go with Silver Aura and hope it'll be just gorgeous.

Don't mix it up with Sheer Minerals. These are two different collections and displays as well, a bit confusing.

Petticoat and So Ceylon are LE, Gold Deposit and Soft & Gentle become perm.

Ah thank you susanne.

Soft & Gentle belongs to both. For some reason

I saw both displays and testers at my counter.

In the display of House of minerals, the last two of the Natural MSFs - these are the two MSFs, Soft & Gentle and Gold Deposit!

In the Sheer Minerals display there are Soft & Gentle, Petticoat and So Ceylon.

Soft & Gentle is there twice.
Does this make sense?

It makes me nervous that Gold Deposit has the TOD! That thing is starting to give me nightmares! So it is permenant? Why oh why didn't they have it online yesterday for me to add to my order, so I don't have to order twice and pay shipping.

Might go to local counter at the weekend.

Apparently the Sheer Minerals and House of Minerals displays have been delayed at my local counter. Don't know if this is the same for other locations. They don't have a date when they will receive them, but it could be a few weeks before I get my Gold Deposit.

Unless I give in to the temptation of more online ordering, no free shipping though this time!

It seems to be the same here. My counter got the displays and testers last week, but not the products themselves. You neither can order them online at the moment.

Do they have delivery problems again?

Yup

I went to the Covent Garden store today in London to buy So Ceylon and Gold Deposit was in the House of Minerals display. It also doesn't have the ToD next to it on the UK website - M·A·C Cosmetics | Mineralize Skinfinish

I think they do Suzanne! This always happens at my local counter with MSFs, I remember in the past Northern Light in particular just never got delivered full stop.

Atleast they will come eventually since the collection is perm. though. That's a positive I guess! Just got to be patient - which I admit I'm bad at when it comes to MAC.

is the mineralize loose powder foundation permanent at the counters? I don't like traveling far to get to the MAC store and wait till it opens at 11am. I like how Bloomies opens at 9:30am and I could go in and get my stuff as quick as possible and head to Sephora when it opens at 1oam which is just across the street from the mall.
