I'm really not sure when I'll be done with this collection! I have Runaway Red, Dish it Up, Quick Sizzle, and Hush Hush, and I'm definitely going back for Naughty Saute and WMS. Color Added and a few more Tendertones are a possibility! I really love Hush Hush and I'm leaning towards Tread Gently and maybe Purring. I would get more, but Vera got a lot of my money too.

I know how you feel! I already got WMS, Dish It Up, Innocence Beware, Hush Hush, Tread Gently, and my most recent additions: Colour Added quad and Call Me Bubbles quad. I am absolutely in love with Colour Added! I tried out a look with it yesterday, and I got tons of compliments on it. To my surprise, the combination of the yellow and teal blue made my blue eyes pop. If you have blue eyes, the quad is a must-have. Even if you don't, I'm sure it will still look great!

Pixie, did you get Purring t/t? If so, you must try it over Fully Ripe. If you lightly dab on FR and gloss over it with Purring, it is a gorgeous combination that is not too bright.

i have a backup of Runaway Red coming but i think it might be one of the obvious different ones that people have been getting...seems like Dubonnet would be the closest dupe if i'm trying to backup the MMO Runaway Red...

agree??
Dubonnet is so gorgeous, but it was on the lead list. so I'd probably stay away from that one

I do have blue eyes, so Color Added sounds great! Could you tell me how bright the yellow is? I've seen some looks where it looks more muted on the lid, and some looks where it's full-on bright. Is it buildable or just very pigmented in one swipe? I'm trying to get into colors and I want to figure out some day friendly looks with brights

The yellow is very buildable, so can easily be sheered out or worn intensly. I've also recently gotten into wearing more color, and this quad is perfect for daytime! I am wearing it again today with the yellow on the inner half of the lid, the blue on the outer half and in the crease, and the white shade as a highlight. On the lower lashline, I have the the yellow shadow on the inner half, and the blue on the outer half, along with black liner on the waterline. When you get the quad, be sure to try out this look!

That sounds gorgeous! Thank you for letting me know, I don't think I'm quite brave enough to wear the yellow packed on! I don't have any of the shades in the quad so I know this will be a great buy. I think I'll pick the quad up on the restock and try out the look.

I loved trying my items from this collection. The tendertones are absolutely amazing! I love the smell and texture of them so will definitely have to get a couple more when they launch on MAC.co.uk :D I only tried Florida and Naughty Sauté today from the colour items I bought. I wore Naughty Sauté today with a fresh bare face and muted eyes, aside from eyeliner (pic below). I adore how wearable this shade of pink is... It's vibrant but doesn't seem too peachy or too blue. I love love love it :) Florida is very pretty on, and whilst easy to over do, it's also very easily blended and buffed out so is easy to rectify. I think Florida in person has a lot more depth of colour - it looks far more interesting than just a bright pink blush. I think it will be great used very lightly on the lips with a clear balm over for make up free days. (products - face: Chanel Perfection Foundation in 20, Florida Blush, used very sparingly. Eyes: mac brule all over lid, hint of mac wedge in the crease, eyeliner. Lips: naughty sauté)

Thanks Sherm and Alisha :) I think Naughty Sauté is a great wearable bright - I love how it works on pale skins like mine yet still looks gorgeous on much darker skin tones. I think Shop/Cook has been a awesome collection, I'll have to try a WMS FOTD over the weekend!

MrsB, Naughty Saute was meant for your lips!
Aww thank you! I used to be terrified of brights, I actually only own about 5 bright lipsticks and that's including Naughty Sauté and WMS! I was always weary I'd how they would look but am trying to branch out :)
