YAY! Finally!!! Your product pics look great

Enjoy!

I ended up with Merrily, Love Thing, Pleasantry, and Nuance. I'd like to go back for Gentle because of the hint of purple. I was going to get Love Joy, but it reminded me of Too Fab from the Barbie collection and I have PLENTY of that left. All you Gentle fans, why are you fans? I'm on the fence about this one.

Guyssssssssss. I keep going back and forth....everyone keeps saying Love Thing and Merrily are too similar. I cannot see these in person first (which sucks, I know) I'm an NW35....I really hope these dont come ot the same on me. I don't use a light hand (I overapply) but I will have to buff it out....

Love Thing and Merrily are similar but Merrily is definitely a rosier colour on. Personally I prefer Merrily on my NC42 skintone.

I am wearing Merrily today with a little bit of Warm Soul! I really like it.
You have to use a light hand when applying Merrily. It doesn't look orange on me (I'm an NC25).

Yay! UPS delivered my goodies last night! I really love everything I got...well, maybe not pleasantry cause I am unsure how the color looks on me(I don't have any other pink blushes though so 1 is always good to have , right?)
BUT...now I want to get Gentle also! All this talk about it & how gorgeous it is & everyone seems to be buying it & the swatches are all sooooo pretty, I feel like it will be the first to sell out. Ugh, lemmings....

These babies are so amazing, I ended up having to have every.last.one.of.them. The glimmery sheen in these are so breathtaking!

UPDATE: So MAC said they'd ship Merrily overnight and I just received my package. Guess what's in it.....GENTLE! Which is so funny because in a half hour, I'm off to Macy's to purchase Gentle AND Warm Soul. However, since I called MAC and said "Um, sorry to bug you again but once more, y'all shipped me the wrong product -- which isn't HORRIBLE since I was gonna buy it anyway...but can I please please please get my Merrily?"

She is overnighting Merrily again (fingers crossed I get the right item this time) and said "Go ahead and keep Gentle...sorry for the 2 screw-ups."

WHAT? Seriously? Wow, thank you MAC, you sure are a class-act! So today at the mall, all I have to buy is Warm Soul to complete the collection.

Oh, and gentle is so pretty I actually grinned when I swatched it.

: yahoo:

^ you're so lucky.

Ok, now I can see why some of you are buying all of these! I am wearing Pleasantry today, which I love. I applied it today over fresh foundation and powder, and I love how it looks. I am debating a few more of these! They are amazing!

Awesome! Same thing kinda happened to me. I accidentally had a package shipped to my old college dorm address which is closed this summer!

So I emailed them, letting them know.. and I was thinking I'd at most be refunded because I made a stupid mistake, it was MY mistake you know?

They're 2 day delivering a NEW package of it to me.
Hello Take a Hint back-up and Nocturnelle!

MAC is just awesome, great customer service.

Yeah, you have only have dab it on because they are super pigmented

Just ordered Pleasantry and Nuance online. Hope I can get them soon.
How is Gentle compared to True Romance? I have TR but not love it.

 

[darkishstar]

This is so the best few collections out in a while!
I ADORE Sonic Chic... these blushes are amazing!
And Electroflash was fantastic for the lipglasses...

I think I'll be using Dainty today.

 

[GlamYOURUs]

If I have EVERSUN from the BPB collection, do I need Love Joy?

 

[Krasevayadancer]

Weird but true, the fs next to me didnt get the blushes in. Oh well, out of sight= out of mind for me. Im just not a blush girl

 

[ohsoshy]

Is there a dupe for Love Thing?

 

[Divinity]

Crap...I HAVE to get Gentle now - I'm a purple whore. I'm in total agreement regarding a light hand with Merrily. Took me three tries and two wipes to get it right. BTW...I applied it with Nuance just above and a little blend later..poof! Beautiful!
