If I can get a MUA in New York to do it, I'm going to be wild and crazy and have a coral makeover using one of the facecharts.
I have never ever had anything coral near my face, but I think it is time to be brave, and isn't New York the place to try new things?
I am actally already a little scared, but the decision is made

I placed an order yesterday. I got far too much as I bought some Pret a Papier products too.
Hipness
130 brush
Lazy Day
Marine Life
I'm tempted to get the pinky lustre (Pink Rebel?) drops but I don't think I'd use them. Also looking at the 131 brush but I don't know if it'd be any good, but that isn't available yet anyway.

I want to ask my MUA if she could do something on my eyes with Sand & Sun and Firecracker, when the collection arrives. Because I feel like I need to see myself wearing these before I can buy them. Red tones on the eyes are a little scary to me too.

can anyone help me decide between getting a 188 or the 131 from this collection? i want it for my blush/highlighter, because i find the 187 a bit too big
i love my 130 so i was wondering if i should get a 131 too?

I went to see the collection last Saturday and didn't find anything that interesting. I thought I was going to skip the collection. I went to the store again today, tried both Hipness and Get-Away Bronze. I ended up going home with Get-Away Bronze since I don't have any bronze blush in my collection.

I think it should. My MA is also a NC15 and she's wearing Get-Away Bronze today. It looks really beautiful on her. Is there any MAC counters where you can try the colour? My friend who is NC20 didn't like Get-Away Bronze at all. She thinks it looks 'dirty' on her.

I had the same feelings when I purchased Hot Hot Hot from Spring Color Forecast. I honestly love it, but it took a few tries to find a color combo that didn't make the red tones SO obvious on my already pink skin.
When I wear Hot Hot Hot, I wear it in the crease, with a lighter color on the lid, and then I wear either brown or plum eyeshadow in the outer corner. My favorites with HHH are Bronze, Dark Edge, Sketch or Deep Damson (PRO). For me, it makes HHH 100x more wearable. I can't wait to get Firecracker and Sun and Sand

Sadly I don't have a MAC counter where I am. How I wish I did, it would make it so much easier. The Closest one is 2 hours away.
I am NW15 and I've recently bought a few bronzers but I want a MAC one. I have a Cargo light one, Benefit's 10 and a Victoria Secret Pink bronzer. They all work so hopefully this one will.

Technically Getaway Bronze is a blush, so I wonder how it differs from the actual bronzers in this collection in texture, payoff etc.

after seeing swatches and OMG THE FACECHARTS... i'm definitely getting the four e/ss i don't already have (i already have humid), and now i'm tempted by both eye pencils too... plus hipness...
i'm staying away from the lippies, really, i swear. i've been buying a lot of them lately, and i don't always use lip products, so it makes better money sense to skip.
we'll see if i hold to that once i see these babies in person.
