*pulling hair at why MAC canada still hasn't restocked anything* :[ immortal flower and I are just not meant to be I guess.
Hope MAC Canada will restock the blushes soon! *Fingers crossed*


It's unbelievable that they are still available online. It's tempting, but I think I'm done hauling this collection. I'm looking forward to the Hey Sailor collection. ;)

Ok, so I have decided to get Full of Joy, but will a cool-toned pink like Chanel RA L'exuberante work with it? I am planning to buy MAC Snob lipstick to pair it with but I was thinking save the money and get Chanel JC Tumulte blush instead. And when I have this, do I need Tres Cheek Peony Petal?

Help me.

Uhhh I might have read this wrong but snce FoJ is cool anything also cool-toned will complement it. You can apply it sheerly as a highlight on top of PP if you want, I think that would be pretty!

I have been using the 129 SH as well. PP is bright but easily blended out when I put a highlighter over it. I just pick up a little bit of pigment on the very tip of the brush.

so i finally depotted my team 8 blushes! and i have two palettes filled with blushies....yay!
sadly i crumbled the edges of one...thankfully not one of the new ones. it was *sigh* harmony. maybe because it's so dry, and more heavily used, so possibly thinner?
i was pretty much using only heat to lift the pan from the plastic tray, but when i was clicking out the tray from the compact, i got a little less diligent with my method...

does anyone know if how i can repress the crumbly bits?

These Tres Cheek blushes are comparable to any of the Chanel IMHO. I love the JC but this is just as lovely at less the price and you could get the Snob lippy too. I think Syrup or Pink Plaid lippy would go well with Peony Petal.

Thanks, martiangurll! It's good to know that some people use 129SH for PP as well. =) I don't wear highlighter everyday, but I def will try your idea. I feel I can do it. ;)

I'm wearing PP today, and I think it looks better than LC I had yesterday, even FoJ looked better than LC (I'm NC20ish). I have to try on LC again. I have now worn my team 5 (ex. PT). MM and IF of course are the best ones, then maybe PP, FoJ and LC.

I am NC 15.I bought all the blushes from TC apart from Pink Tea. I plan to get Pink Cult from Reel Sexy though. Do you think Pink Tea is a Must Have? I personally think I look better wearing LC and MM. I feel that FoJ and PP lean a bit too cold on my skin. Perhaps I was just too enthusiastic and apply less...

They (FOJ & PP) work very well layered with other stuff or buffed out for me. I am an NC15 in Winter, but more like NC22.5 in summer LOL. I also think it depends if you gravitate towards cool tones or warm tones, so if you don't like the cool tones, good reason to swap them or exchange. I prefer to swap, since I shudder to think of make up this quality being destroyed, but you have every right to return it if it isn't for you.

I don't think Pink Tea is a must, I would get Pink Cult instead if it came to a choice between those.

I have not used my IF yet, and it looks so boring in the pan. I don't want to swatch it if I decide to swap it. But I am hoping someone can tell me it transforms into something more dramatic on the skin...

Maybe I am just spoiled by the bright colors like PP, MM + Early Morning and Fresh Honey, the MB from Naturally?

Immortal Flower is gorgeous once applied. You should definitely try it. I liked it so much i got a back up.

And by cold, I meant cool. D'oh...

It's a shame I only have two cheeks. I still need to try superb and whisper of gilt EDSF and I only applied IF once on my left cheek, MM on my right cheek. Then I was so enamoured with MM that I topped IF with MM. Compared to MM looks son subtle. I have to try again another day.
