I cannot wait to see Beach Bronze, Hipness, Life's A Breeze, Splashing, Sand & Sun, and Marine Life in person. I don't know if I will go
or
to which item, but I'm totally excited. 10 more days!

I have been testing the Cream bronzer for a few months now... and it is actually one of the best products I have tested in a long time. It is smooth and the color is medium sheer bronzey brown. It has a fine finish and so far has become a favorite product.
Marine life is gorgeous -- the colors are sheer and spectacular but the most novel product in the line is the cream bronzer, imo.... kinda like the coral paint pot, unique!

That is great to hear as I really loved the bronzer when I tested it. I am a little worried about it breaking my skin out though.
Yes, Marine Life is so so beautiful!!!

That's exactly why I'm passing on Scorcher, it totally reminds me of HH (which I'm really happy with!). I'll be thrilled to see your swatches and know for sure!
Well...that just sold me.
The cream bronzer has almost no shimmer -- and that is why I was given it to test... because I am an old lady who cannot handle too much shimmery stuff on the face.. lol. But it is so sheer and gorgeous, more of a sheen rather than shimmer imo.
I will buy one in the proper case ( I have a white tester case only for the time being).
I would upload a pic but I am a blatant failure at this task. Don't be wary of the cream bronzer -- it is more sheer than the NARS bronzers.

See that's what I thought when I swatched it - just beautiful smoothness there is NO glitter in it at all.

Now I'm even more excited about getting this! It really sounds great, thanks for your thoughts. I usually stay away from bronzers but I'm obsessed with it lately in all forms and I have no idea why.
I can't wait to play with this stuff!

Look at this video I found, she uses the Beach bronze one and looks gorgeous! YouTube - MAC Trend S/S '10: American Nomad
Its just that some people in youtube and on blogs said it was full of glitter and I was like oh no! I am 25 but still I don't want tons of glitter on my face not good for the pores! jaja
But I really trust your opinions so I think its back on my list!
For my NC25 skin I think the beach bronze is best right? The other one seems a bit too dark for me...

I'm really wondering if I need more than one highlighter. I was recommended both the Sun Rush lustre drops AND the Beach Bronze creme bronzer. For the sake of my unemployed-but-bolstered-with-birthday-money wallet, and for the sake of saving more for Fabulous Felines, which should I get? NC 45 here.
On another random note, I went to my local free-standing store to ask about a dupe for Kumquat, and lo and behold, not only did they have 13 (!!) of them left, but they had 20+ Gold Dusts, several of the Colour 3 (purple) palettes, tons of Fresh Salmon, and much more. No more blushes though :/ Since Kumquat is HG status for me, guess who's on Team Backup now.

I didn't think the cream bronzer was glittery either. It's not matte, but that's pretty normal for bronzers.
I might go back for a 130 brush - for my new cream bronzer.
And of course the missing Thrills l/s.
It's so strange that after those two items there are no LE's for me to hunt for before August! A well deserved break for my plastic cards perhaps.
