Is that you in the avatar? - If so you look fabulous!

i just placed my order for petticoat msf, gentle mineralize blush, and the 181

 

[YSLGuy]

I saw some of the Mineral Skinfinish powders in person last week.

I saw one that i want to add to my kit for highlighting and one that I wanted personally for bronzing effects, but I forgot the names. LOL.

I use Laura Mercier Matte Bronze and ususally dust Nars Luster over it to highlight and get a bit of a healthy glow. The Mineral one I saw would combine both of those into one product and make life easier. LOL

Great haul!! Could be mine

 

[CantAffordMAC]

I got Petticoat and the small kabuki...

I HATE buying brushes, but they are a necessity

Im glad I didnt really want much else from this collection.

Thanks Elegant-One, it is me

I had gotten all glammed up for a friend's wedding.

I had decided previousely not to come to color collection boards as to not get tempted by all the MAC news, I couldn't help it though....here I am feeding the addiction

 

[SparklingMissy]

YAY!
My haulage for this collection is:
2 petticoats because mine is almost gone and i love it!
2 so ceylons because same as above
1 soft and gentle msf because it perm but looks pretty......

 

[rbella]

My poor, pathetic haul is only:
Petticoat
Baby Sparks
Pomposity

I'm way over budget this month. Poop. I'll have to hope some other stuff is still here next month. I figured since Soft and Gentle is Perm I can get that anytime and since Stark Naked is similar to Gentle, I'll skip for now (unhappily). But, I have to save for other collections....I don't like having to practice restraint. It pisses me off.

Ugh I agree 100% Im not necessarily over budget, but hauling every 2 weeks is KILLING me.

Its not like Im complaining, but I just wish the collections were more spaced out. Im not really at a good place with jobs/money right now. So I have to pick and choose wisely. I got a quad this month (from specktra), Manish haul, this haul....there has to be another one that I just forgot about.

Dont worry Rbella we can be broke and pissed off together. My haul was: Petticoat, 181 brush, Baby Sparks, Quiet please.

Maybe I can actually buy a coat soon lol

Part of mine is for my birthday (well ok, thats an excuse) but I'm also cutting back on the brush sets - I'm only getting one, one lipstick set & one eyeshadow palette

Which colours do you already have? Is there a colour you have on your list?

 

[urbanlilyfairy]

Is this collection being released everywhere or only to MAC ? I mean like will this be avialable at nordstroms and places liek that ?

 

[Hemons]

What does anyone think about the SuperSheen Loose powders? I can't decide which one to get. Is Petticoat also a must? I am NW 20. Thanks!

BTW, my haul so far is:
Soft and Gentle MSF

I ended up with:

I thought about getting: So Ceylon and Silver Aura...but I want to see those in person before I buy....because they might look terrible with my skin tone. (NW30)

from Red She Said!!

2 Love Alert
2 Date Night
2 Miss Dynamite
1 Sugarrimmed (I have this from the original dazzleglass release in may...<3)

Good choices. I am not allowing myself to buy any more browns.
Let us know how you like them.

And let's hope your wallet recuperates soon

 

[zeroxstar]

I think i'm just going to be ordering all 3 MSFS because I don't have time to actually check them out in person & am worried the two LE ones will sell out fast.

..but can somebody help:
What are the loose mineralized powders (silver aura, etc) - what are they supposed to be for?
