I personally don't feel the need to go run out and grab Gentle - I've already got something like 26 MAC blushes at this point, and with colours that similar, I'm not going to worry too much about finish.
thanks for all the feedback! i NEED stark naked bpb now

 I think I will open a bottle of dark redwine that evening and enjoy the holiday collections haul
Coffee would kill me after visiting the store

No heart attacks! That would get in the way of actually USING the new goodies! And what about future collections!?

Re: MAC - Holiday 2008 "Red She Said" Discussion
So i couldn't resist getting Love Alert when i went in to go and exchange my foundation for the correct color. It's soooo pretty!! i can't wait to use it on top of my red lippies as well as pomposity. im considering getting date night but im not sure. im hoping it will come back again with the perm collection of dazzleglass. im trying to save for little darlings because i want two of the sets from that collection. I got one of the last two love alerts at my counter i think so i just went for it. lol.

Re: MAC - Holiday 2008 "Red She Said" Discussion
So today I FINALLY got to the MAC counter to check all of the Holiday stuff out.
I normally like to walk around a check everything out but the MA was constantly on my tail. It sort of drove me a nuts since I told her a few times that I just wanted to look around for a bit and I would let her know what I wanted. Sorry rant over...
Anyways I was not too impressed by the Holiday collection. The MES trios were pretty but most were pretty passable. I really liked word of mouth MES trio. It is has soft grey and a really pretty soft gold color. I liked Inter-view but it didn't seem to unique to get. The navy reminded me of flashtrack and the brown looks similar to twinks. I wanted to really like dangerzone but again the black is not as good as carbon and the red is still a burnt red sort of color and not a true red.
The lipsticks were pretty but soft pause is too sheer for my liking. I love pomposity but I already had it from C-shock. Red she said was gorgeous but looks similar to a lot of other reds. As far as the blushes go stark naked was AMAZING and I think that it is the standout of this collection.
I already had ordered a few things from MAC.com so I only ended up with word of mouth MES, the rose lip bag, the warm eye palette, & kids helping kids cards & gift tags.
