Thank you, Layla! Yes, that is one of the swatches I saw :) And I was very surprised at how light Oomph looked there, not only against Humid but even by itself. But then that youtube video posted above (drool!), though it looks like Humid there imo. But you never know 'til you swatch it yourself, which, unfortunately, will be a lot harder with this collection. :(

I really hope MAC releases the list of the top stores with enough time for everyone to prepare and such...not only for any possible CP's but also for the traveling that may be required.

It's funny, because I thought I'd really want Gana, but seeing the swatches of it on Temptalia makes me increasingly certain that I want NARS Albatross. Go figure.
katred,for your skin colouring I think you would like Albatross instead -- Gana is a bit deeper toned.. but you should swatch it see if you like it.

I just love in Temptalias vid that someone is ringing the doorbell :)

I still Love Sur blush! Unsure about everything else. The ls shades seem to be changing in the swatches. I wanted Mehr to be a lil more pink toned. In that video above it looks just like the color of my lips almost.

It was on my (21st, woohoo!) birthday. :D

I think I'll just be getting both fluidlines.
I wanted Marvel e/s but I got myself Push the Edge pigment instead. ^_^
Just wanted to say your new avatar is gorgeous!

My new list after Temptalia's swatches:

Flesh Lipglass (HerGreyness recommends it and I'm completely digging the shade as of now)
Mehr Lipstick (if I can afford it)
Yash Lipstick
Gana Blush
Sur Blush (if I can afford it, kind of dark for me but I'm loving it, too)
Marvel Eyeshadow
Oomph Eyeshadow

Saffron isn't at all what I expected it to be. :(

And I already have Brave New Bronze so I'm crossing Yash off of my list.

Oh, well -- I'll just focus on Peacocky.

I had a dream about Mehr last night, so I think I need to get it LOL. Otherwise, I think I am going to just haul from Peacocky. I like this collection, but I don't see myself using the products that often.

I have Humid swatched on my finger and am comparing to all the swatches of Oomph I am seeing. They seem very similar, but I'm looking through a computer screen on somebody elses skin other than my own, so I'm not sure what to think.

Does anyone who has seen/swatched both Humid and Oomph know how they differ? TIA!! :)

nono.. Teresita -- Humid is greener but lighter... Oomph is not brown based as the other site says.. it is black based... I have both and they are way different.

Rinstar.. lol. I have nightmares of makeup and it's organization... lol -- Mehr is lovely tho.

Lou, I do think oomph is a gorgeous shade.. and it is pigmented despite what I read on another site.. lol. It has a blackish base, not brown is more dark and rich than humid.

I think I'll be skipping Gana since I have the same skintone as katred and HerGreyness says Albatross will be better, so I think I'll end up with Oomph, Marvel, Mehr, and Yash. Very excited!

I'm skeptical about oomph. I've seen it swatched about four times and each times it looks differently. I'm going to have to order online because there are only MAC counters around here. I am hoping to read a few more reviews before deciding.

Have any medium dark skinned women swatched Sur? I have read some blogs saying that it's similar to notable and great for WOC and I've read other reviews saying that it won't show up on darker skin.

Do you guys think that Sur will be too dark on NW25 skintone? I have prim n proper and I love it but I have to apply it with powder brush so it doesn't look muddy. Is Sur much darker?
