Well, Merrily may be a more Fall friendly color. If the blue MES is close to your other blues, maybe just get the green

Am I crazy for considering skipping the MES I want for now (the blue and green ones) in order to get all of the blushes I want first? Then I chance them selling out and missig them. Or should I get the MES I want now, and just 2 blushes for now? I can't decide!!

I'm NC25, brown eyes and black hair Asian.
I just learn something from my live chat with Amy:
Shy Beauty (Beauty Powder Blush) is lighter than Warm Soul, and something between Dainty and Nuance.
Both Dainty and Nuance will show off pretty well on NC20-30 skin tone.
Love Thing is nothing alike Feeling or True Romantic (Beauty Powder Blush). Feeling and True Romantic are more softer and plumy, whereas Love Thing is more deeper and dirty burgundy with golden shimmer.
NC25 is better with Medium/Natural And Shimmer in Mineralize Skinfinish (Duo) of the New View Collection.
And Amy strongly recommends 181SE brush for powder or blushes.
p.s. I'm so envy of those who could visit MAC in person.

I was going to try and skip this collection, but Merrily and Love Thing have been calling my name. I've been in the mood for fall colors lately and don't have a decent plum blush to my name yet. Love Thing sounds gorgeous and I just saw the pictures of Merrily in the swatches thread. I take it these don't have much in the way of veining in them?

I want them so bad! I'm scared that they'll run out before I get to the store. I don't want to order these without seeing them in person because I really need a MA to help me because I don't know how to use blush! AHHHHHHHHH.

OKAY, scratch that. In an hour and a half between work and my kung fu class, I'm going to mall and getting my blushes and my lipglasses on Thursday. I'm THAT crazy!
Final list to check out:
Dainty
Merrily
Gleeful (I know for sure that this is a definite for me, I'm in LOVE with this color for some reason)
Pleasantry
Nuance (Though I'm sure it probably won't show up on me. I need to try it out in store)
Uhm. Has anyone ever tried on like.. 10 million blushes at the store before? Do you just clean it off your cheek in between colors with a wipe? Or do you just swatch it on your arm and call it a day? I don't own any blushes so I don't think I could just judge from an arm/hand swatch... Any suggestions or tips?

Awww babe, I hope you get better. I was wondering where you went off to as well. Sorry for your pain and sickness, I know you will get better and get yourself back on track!

I missed so much school that I had to drop out and I guess that is why I feel down. I don't feel like doing much now b/c I am in pain. Hopefully I am capable of visiting the counter on Thurs but even that is a stretch. |

i wish i could decide on here then go get the one i like the most but im so picky about my blush. Too much color scares me. lol. Could someone recommend to me which ones i should take a look at first?? I want to get at least one blush...probably not more then that because i dont really use it on a daily basis. Im C40 in Studio Fix Powder. Any suggestions??

hey everyone! i'm back!

yes, all mineralize products are made in italy.
Quote:
they are made of completely different ingredients and by a completely different process. plus, you can use these wet or dry for a different coverage/finish/look. these cannot be used on the eye/lip.
Quote:
people were commenting on how its the same hair as the 223/169. its not, but it looks like it. this is a stiffer brush. its not as stiff as the 190, but not as soft as the 223 or 169.
unfortunately, we covered so much stuff that we didn't get to play with these, the shadows, or new view powders. i do, however, have info on all of these, and will play around with them tomorrow at work. so, if you have any questions on colors, i can answer them tomorrw.
sorry i couldn't have been of more help with these, but i have lots of info on other products, so just bear with me.

Unless, of course, all MAC Mineralize products are made in Italy!
