I'm also still very curious about the Cream Bronzers. |

Hmm. I think I need to see them side by side maybe. I was told since I have Benefit's Coralista I don't need Hipness, so maybe I can just get Instant Chic.

i had this same problem. try a flat brush (like a mineral one) and pat the color on. i had to figure this out for all of my matte blushes.

So I don't get why it goes on the way it does. If anyone has a suggestion let me know! |

For some reason, I have it in my head, that Hipness will be far superior to Coralista, so I must get it. There must be something wrong with me. Some kind of addiction, illness, whatever you want to call it, but I am buying Hipness no matter what. Sad isn't it? I have heard that they are extremely similar, but I still feel like I need both. I don't know what's wrong with me.

Would a MAC dual fiber brush work? That's all I have that's similar at the moment.

Strange. I have no problems like that with my MAC Mocha Blush, which is a matte.

I'm a total sucker for the cute packaging in this collection. The seahorse is going to get the best of me. Too bad the bag is so expensive else I'd pick up one.

I think I've decided on one cream bronzer. And if I don't up getting a lipglass from Pret a Papier, then I may get the peachy one from this collection. Was considering one of the pink glosses, but I think my collection is far too saturated with pinks so onto something new!
Strange thing is, i really enjoy MAC's special packaging on most items, but not the lipglass. I think it's because so much of the product itself is visible, and the combination of the colours aren't always the most flattering.

I'm dying to see swatches! I haven't bought anything brand new from recent mac collections since... last summer I think. Studio Moisture Tint, Fashion Groupie and Fashion Patch, I think those were my last purchases of LE stuff direct from MAC. I was sure I would pick up some stuff frm SCF and LoL, but they either sold out or I just wasn't sold
Art Supplies and Pret a Papier aren't interesting me much either.
Not much has grabbed me lately that I was willing to splurge on, so I'm so so excited for this collection. I'm looking at Lazy Day for sure, and the 131 for sure (regretted not getting it last summer). I'm not usually a huge fan of lipglass, but I will probably B2M for Easy lounger, or maybe Splashing. Hipness looks pretty as well, but I'll have to see just how orange it is. I fell in love with the seahorse powder when I first saw the promo pic, but I'm not sure if I will actually end up buying it. As for eyeshadows, I depot all of mine, so the cute packaging would be wasted. So, one or two each of lipsticks and lipglasses, and the 131, with the seahorse powder and Hipness as maybes. I bet you girls can't believe that this is me splurging on a collection
