A little help please?

So, I found a So Ceylon MSF at my local counter. Should I get that or a backup of Brunette instead? I really love Brunette....but I'm seeing alot of love for the other one...

Thanks in advance!

I personally like Brunette better than So Ceylon. So Ceylon and Brunette are similar, but I think that Brunette is more orange and has more shimmer to it. I find that So Ceylon doesn't show up as bright on my C7 face. I think it depends on what you want to use them for. I would highlight with So Ceylon and I love Brunette used alone as a light blush or on top of a blush. I think some others have indicated that if you have Brunette, you really don't need So Ceylon. Try them both, one on each side of your face and see what you prefer. You can always return any item you don't like back to the MAC counter/store.

I also like Brunette better than So Ceylon. However, I'm not a "backup" type person so I'd get the So Ceylon if I were you to have some variety?

Don't forget about all the new MSFs that are coming this summer too though!

I agree with Allthingsgirl...I don't do backups of MSFs. I guess b/c I have so many, I figure it'll take me a really really long time to get through them all.

I do love the Brunette, as well as So Ceylon, so I'd say make sure you've got each before getting doubles of one.

Shooting Star is my all time fave! It works great on my skin tone for contour/bronzer.

I was disappointed with these too...I got both of them, and swapped away Perfect Topping b/c it doesn't show up on me AT ALL! I kept Refined, but it takes a few coats to have an impact.

I'm hoping the new collection will be more WOC-friendly as far as contour & highlighting is concerned. Soft & Gentle is the only highlighting MSF that works for me, and sometimes I don't want that much shimmer.

We'll see...I'm counting the days til July 9th!!

I've never even seen Metal Rock in person....I've been trying to get my hands on it, but people are really picky/greedy about it.

I like to tell myself that it's all hype, but a little voice tells me to believe the hype...hehe

Cross your fingers that I get it someday

I have GOT to stop eating and drinking while reading these threads. Can't afford to go to the hospital for choking and no one in the house besides me knows CPR.

Both So Ceylon and Brunette MSFs are my most favorite of all! I love Brunette as an all over glow or just a glow on my cheeks. I also adore Gold Deposit and Refined MSFs. I was about to get both Blonde and Redhead MSFs when it was online but Brunette won me over.

Mineralize Skinfinish

A luxurious velvet-soft powder with high-frost metallic finish. Smoothes on: adds buffed-up highlights to cheeks and brows, or an overall ultra-deluxe polish to the face.

Not to cause a scene (I swear!) but I have a Metal Rock msf collecting dust. The glitter is slightly too big for my tastes... Anyhow, I'll get on the ball and put it on the swap board soon. I'm just concerned about ladies being scared of buying from me since I haven't swapped on this board yet and I don't post as much as I should, lol!

Anyhow, my favorite msf is Petticoat and I'm kinda mad there aren't as many more unique pinkish or plummy msf's so far....

ETA: My MR is claimed now.
