I recently purchased the New Vegas MSF from the McQueen collection. On the pan, I'd say it looks very pretty: gold with some bronze and shimmery white veins. But on my face, it looks exactly like what Benefit Moon Beam looks: gold shimmer that I'd only ever use for highlighting, and then only for evening looks.
I've sold my New Vegas MSF already because I was really disappointed with how it looked on my skin (NC30). I did, however, just received my Shimpagne MSF in the mail last night (ordered from eBay). And I have to say that it's just plain awesome! It gives a sort of rose gold/champagne gold shimmer on my cheeks and makes me look a bit flushed and just so pretty. I think this MSF, along with Glissade, has to be my favorite of all.
If you want to try getting Shimpagne, thejadedstar is selling a BNIB one on the Clearance Bin board.

Before buying on the internet, though, I'd suggest you try out New Vegas MSF from a MAC counter first. Who knows, maybe it'll look absolutely gorgeous on you.

Nunu...im kinda thinking about new vegas too. Some people think if it doesn't show up on light complexions we dont really have a chance. But im thinking the opposite..gold should show up & complement us, im NC43 too.
Are you in London?? Do you know if the collection will be at all MAC stores or exclusive?? I wonder if they'll put it up on the UK website

Hey
, I live in the midlands, i'm sure its going to be in all MAC stores, freestanding and in debenhams and selfridges (because thats the case with all new collections) also i asked a MA when is the new collection coming and she told me that they are going to find out next week. They will put it on the website but a weeks or so after its been released in shops. The website seems slow, i mean i went once to check out MAC and found out that the matte2, mattene collection are out but when i went home it wasn't up on the website yet! LOL hope this helps

I didn't like the New Vegas one, it was pretty glittery on me, and it's more beige than gold-ish. For your complexion, I would recommend the Global Glow MSF that was released sorta recently (it came out with the Flashtronic collection.) You may still be able to find it in a MAC store. It's a gorgeous gold shimmery one, not glittery. There were some swatches posted in the Swatch forum. I use it lots but I have fair skin so I have to use it lightly, but your complexion is a bit darker so it should work really well for you. I've had a few people asking me what I'm wearing when I put it on.
From the Swatch thread, Shooting star is similar but it's from last year I think...

Yeah, I was a little disappointed with the New Vegas MSF as well, but I just bought it just to say that I have it.
It's not really chunky or that glittery on me personally, I have light to fairly light skin with yellow undertones, but it just didn't really show up that great on me...it's okay though!

ugh got my new vegas msf today, and I, like others, bought it to see whats the hype about msfs....wow. now i have to figure out how to get rid of this.....and since I bought it in Canada for 29.50, no one's going to want to pay for this!!! :S I'll have to see what I can do, maybe try the suggestion of a powder on top? Tried blush, didn't work so hot. AHHHH! What do you think if I got one of the natural msfs and tried to put it on over New Vegas--would that do the trick?
