Pictures! :)

I'm loving everything, except Golden Rinse. I'm not sure how I feel about it, as I said earlier. Might exchange for a different bronzer after I swatch in store. We'll see! I'm already contemplating another order... I'm trying to wait until the counter release though. I'm eyeing one of the brushes and I definitely want a BU of tumble dry. It's a bit peachier on my lips than the lip swatch would suggest. However, it's not as "creamsicle" orange as the arm swatch shows. I'm assuming that because it's more sheer, the pink in my lips alters the color. I'm glad, though, I love how it looks on my lips much much more than how it swatches on my arm. When I first swatched it, I was like "ew, no." good thing I actually tried it on. :)


Golden Rinse, Crisp Whites, Steam Heat & Tumble Dry.





^^^ Top to Bottom: Golden Rinse, Crisp Whites, Tumble Dry, Steam Heat.




^ Wearing Tumble Dry, Golden Rinse, and Crisp Whites. The cheek products are unfortunately hard to see in this lighting. They're there though, I promise! lol (I tried facing direct light too, but on camera the sun was washing everything out. TD is a little peachier IRL.)

I have to be careful pairing CW and GR together on my cheeks, can become way too orange. I had to tone it down a little with loose powder. I bet the bronzer would be beautiful with Hipness though!

PS, please excuse the jacked up brows. I did them in 3 seconds just for the sake of the pictures and realized I forgot to comb the product through.

I just checked and my stuff isn't coming until Tuesday.  :-(  I'm so excited after seeing everyone else's pics.
My Tumble Dry is coming on Tuesday. Hipness on Monday. Just realized I said I was getting TD on Monday in another post.

What's sad is I didn't even realize there were brow fluidlines in this collection! Or that MAC didn't already have that!

Sometimes they do. Particularly if you use 2nd Day Air :)
Nice! Actually I got a notification recently that they were shipping on Sundays in my area, and I got something recently... must have Saturdays too I guess. I don't place 2nd day air orders I guess! Hahaha! I place regular 2nd day. I would get Amazon on weekends because they use USPS :barf:
My Tumble Dry is still processing! Eee!
When did you place the order?
Yahhhh my tumble dry lippy shipped yesterday :)
Me too and I ordered it Thurs a.m, close to 11am ET. I ordered Hipness around 9:10am, that shipped same day and I'm getting on Monday.

They had brow fluidlines before. I think they've expanded the shades. I'm thinking about true brunette. I already have deep dark brunette and was quite happy with it until I misplaced it. I have a back up but I refused to have 2 of the same creme product open at the same time so in the mean time I've been using my brow pencils. I wonder how true brunette would look on me.

Gorg! You can put mud on those lips and Sharpie on your brows and still look great, you're gorg girlie!
You look gorgeous!!! Steam Heat was made for you! Now I might need it. I'm in trouble. I'm really hoping Golden Rinse works for me!
Great haul. Enjoy Pretty as always. I have to check this collection in the store.
Wowza, enjoy the lovely haul babe Gorgeous and thank you for the swatches  Enjoy your lovely haul 
Everything looks great on you. Gorgeous!!
Thank you ladies for your kind words!! I had a very busy and tough week with school and my internship, so all the lind compliments definitely perked up my day. :) Steam heat is an awesome red for sure, and I'm absolutely loving tumble dry. If you're on yhe fence about TD you should try to swatch in store!! Though it looks different on hand swatches then lip swatches, IMHO.

Hi! I've been dealing with anemia for years now. Have they ruled out other conditions? I found out a few months ago that I have lupus which is the underlying cause of all my blood issues, among other things. For a long time I was really frustrated too because I couldn't figure out what was wrong with me. PM me if you wanna chat. Hugs.
Thank you so much. I probably will PM you for your opinions/experience if that's okay? How are you dealing with the lupus so far?What are the doctors doing for you? As for me, one doctor thinks it's pernicious anemia, which sort of is my own body destroying the factor I need to absorb vitamin B and iron, but she's also concerned that I have a slow bleeding polyp or something, hence the other exploratory measures. If it is pernicious, I just have to do the infusions and shots the rest of my life, which is inconvenient, but I'll deal. It's the other stuff I'm worried about. Thanks again for talking to me about it. It's nice to talk to someone who understands.

The more I read on this thread, the more I regret not getting Hipness and the brushes. And after seeing Steam Heat on someone, I'm wondering if I could pull it off. But reds usually look awful on my NC15 skin; they make me look older and haggard. And I'm also wondering about my choice of Refined Golden. I went based on an Artist's suggestion through live chat, but I think even lightly applied it will be too dark.

And MAC just updated my shipping. Instead of being here Monday, now it says end of day Tuesday! I placed my order at 9:05 am Eastern, so I think I was pretty early in the launch. I remember checking at 9:01 they weren't available, and 9:05 they suddenly were. I was hoping it would arrive sooner, but I guess with such a large launch it's to be expected. I'm kicking myself for not paying the extra $5 for fast shipping. At the time I was so concerned about sell out that I just rushed through checkout!
Don't feel bad about skipping Steam Heat. Im like you - some reds make me look terribad, like an old crone. The right ones look fantastic, but I have to be really choosy and always try them in person first. I'm also NC15, I guess it comes with the territory. Hipness is cute, but I never bought it in the past - again, not a show-stopper for NC15 and also a little powdery (at least in past versions).

Enjoy the things you're getting and feel better soon. When they can get the right diagnosis for you, you'll be on the road to recovery ASAP. I've been there. It takes a while, but the progress is straight up!

I have been so busy with work and life the past two weeks, that I completely missed out on this collection!!

I just wanted the red lipstick- will this be released with Macy's? I still have a $50 gift card I can use.
