The testers were all messed up from people's grubby fingers so I had to swipe a few times to get the blushes to show on my skin, but I think the pigmentation would be fine otherwise. The colours were really pretty, but they remind me of blushes I have so they aren't unique enough for me to spend $45 on each. I think the most accurate swatches are these http://www.makeupstash.com/2013/12/first-look-at-nars-final-cut-for-spring-2014.html

Thanks! I was interested in Final Cut because I've been wanting a matte orange blush for Spring. And I didn't want to spend all that money on Rotonde, since I knew I would never use it up. FC is looking more coral / light salmon, rather than orange, though. Maybe Gina will still work.

No worries :) FC swatched exactly how you described it, so Gina might be a better alternative if you want something that leans more orange

I'm really bummed about the ship dates. I wonder why some are getting theirs shipped now, while others have to wait. I ordered mine Monday night when I first saw it on the sight, and MusingsofaMuse ordered hers Tuesday afternoon, and according to her twitter, her order has shipped. :(.

I feel so frustrated because I want everything from this collection.

I am trying to be more selective with my makeup purchases this year. I am having a very hard time narrowing my list down.

All of the lip colours seem dupeable to me. I have Descanso, but I can honestly say that I did not need it, and if swatches had come out sooner, I wouldn't have bought it - not that it isn't a lovely product, it just isn't one I would be too upset about missing out on. The blushes seem the same to me - Love would be my standout of the entire collection (since that's the one I own) ;) I don't have any colour like it, it's a very pretty natural flush on the cheeks. New Attitude and Sex Fantasy both look nice but don't seem that special either.

I think those that got shipped first don't have the final cut blush in their cut. After reading Christine's blog, she didn't have final cut. Expected ship date will be next week. That's also what Nordstrom's told me on twitter that they ship it he 15th. So if you ordered final cut, it will be delayed. I only got my eyes on final cut because the rest of them either won't show up or will wash me out.

After seeing Temptalia's swatches, the only thing I want is the illuminator. I'm still debating on the New Attitude blush. I don't know if it would look right on my NC50 skin tone. It probably won't. :( It's a very pretty blush however.

I'm not sure, I only ordered the illuminator, sex fantasy, and new attitude. :( Hopefully they ship soon! I don't mind the late ship date, I just hate that some people are having their items shipped and others aren't. Kind of annoying, haha.
