I B2med for Mocha...and its nothing special for me...I might end up taking it back.
I did like it however when I filled in my lips a bit with Chestnut lipliner and than applied it with love nectar on top.

i've heard strange potion is LOVE with hibiscus, i snagged one on a sale here because i heard it so much!
It totally is!!!

I had to put both of them away until I mad sure I had backups. It makes your lips look like sex lol!

This is actually the only combo that my boyfriend has actually loved on me :0)

[/quote] Have you tried Mocha with Krazy Kahuna? I love that combo. I wouldn't wear Mocha on it's own either.

This looks great on you! I have not been heavy into mac lately but I did order this color after hearing raves about it. Hope I can make it work for me

Here is a photo of me wearing Hibiscus with Krazy Kahuna and Chestnut lipliner....my new fav lipcombo ! I am an NC50 for reference.

I snagged the last Hibiscus from my counter!! Woo hoo!

@BobbieDoll03 You look gorgeous! Now I'm mad that I didn't get Krazy Kahuna too!

So I told myself I wouldn't get anything from this collection...and ended up grabbing Sun Blonde and Saffron today anyway. >_> I have NO idea how I'd wear Sun Blonde, but the uniqueness of the color demanded I pick it up. Anybody have any ideas on what shadows I could wear with it without looking like a hot mess?

[/quote] You can do a lot with Sun Blonde. I've been playing with it since I bought it. You can use it on the lid with Saffron in the crease. You can also use it with Club, Saddle, Carbon, or any of the other shadows that were in the SB collection. It's really versatile. I put a matte gray on my lid, Surf USA in the crease and I had Sun Blonde just in the tear duct. That was great.

Sun Blonde and Club?? Hmm...interesting? What would you put where?
Also, after seeing how well Hibiscus went with Strange Potion, I was compelled to get a backup of SP. Already had a backup of Hibiscus LOL.

I'm shy...:lol:. Nah, I didn't take a pic with my glasses off. Actually, I did, but for various reasons, I didn't care for it, so they are gone. You'll just have to take my word for it. :haha:

Tease!

Seriously though, I'll need to try it out. Of course I'll need Surf USA and a nice matte grey...hrm. I'm hoping Surf USA is still around when the Bloggers collection comes out so I can just order it then with the rest of the stuff I'm getting. Thinking of throwing Groundcover in too, I need a nice warm grey.

I wonder though--does MAC release a teal shadow with every summer collection? I just got into MAC with To The Beach last year, and there was a teal shadow..even though it was perm Shimmermoss.

i think it was just the past two...for some bizarre reason the 'trends' haven't changed this year....
i think the year before To The Beach, it was style warrior, which had no teals whatsoever....i don't think neo sci-fi (2008) did either...

[/quote] You're right. Mac releases teals at strange times, also. They're not my favorite, but they come in handy.

I guess that's a sign I should pick up Surf USA then.

[/quote] Yes, you should get Surf USA. I had every intention of skipping it until I swatched it.

This is what happened to me. I had NO intention of getting Surf USA until swatched it. Literally my jaw dropped.

I ended up getting just Saffron & Krazy Kahuna. I can't wait to rock this look: Saffron on my crease with Motif as a highlight and Creole Beauty as a lid shade; Taj Mahal blush w/ Albatross highlighter; and Krazy Kahuna lips. Very work-safe yet colorful!

Went back to MAC and hibiscus was finally sold out. T.T I guess it wasn't meant to be, hibiscus and I.

So I finally just ended my haul with Saffron, Sun Blonde, Surf USA, Swell Baby, Bust Out!, and Refined Golden.
