Finally sat through the review (while curled up with a hot water bottle), something tells me I'm skipping altogether

I second that.

What makes you say that?

sorry I don't remember where and if I read that in this thread. I have really tired eyes so might have mistakenly read that somewhere in this thread.

I thought someone said that the quads and blushes were not full sized? maybe it was another thread..

I don't think I've heard anything like that, there would have been quite a lot of frustrated people if so and I know I would remember MAC drama like that!

And in Karen's video the blush looks normal-sized. Doesn't mean the pan couldn't be more shallow though.

If they are smaller then it's a definite skip for me, but from what I've read/seen they look normal.

I posted earlier that the blushes are smaller, but looks like that was false info. They should have 6 gr as always.

Hmmm well as beautiful as the packaging is, I'm not too jazzed up about the contents. I mean, for $70, that better be one gorgeous eye shadow quad.

Normally I try to skip glosses but these ones look very tempting!! But for the price... I dunno. Maybe just one lipstick and one compact... liking the sound of the gray fluidline though too.

The glosses are very pretty.

I totally agree. I like the glosses too.

I think I'm gonna go for the Beauty Powder, Zenith lipstick, one of the blushes (not sure which yet). Morning Light palette looks like my type of shades, but I'm most likely going to skip it. I don't wear gloss anymore, but the Pale Moon looks pretty as a topper.

A lot of pretty stuff, but nothing is special enough to be worth as much as they are charging. I think I'm gonna skip, I need the money for my cats and for Macnificent Me and the holiday collection.

The beauty powder looks really nice here..........and Red water lily :eyelove:

I don't usually trust T's swatches, but the collection is a skip for me now...

Trying to get other swatch comparisons...

That is pretty expensive IMO.

This might be a stupid question, but what is beauty powder meant for? All over skin softening? Highlighting? I wouldn't know what else to do with it.

 

[jackiegeee]

Red Water Lily
Ethereal Orchid
Both brushes
....maybe the beauty powder.

 

[Howards End]

Need to see comparisons with Zenith in T's swatch gallery. But overall I feel like just getting Nehru from the perm line and skipping the whole collection lol
