I'll get the 5 lipsticks. After seeing some swatches I really think the whole collection is pretty. I'll skip all the rest in fact.
Are you NC40 or darker? I would love to know how Beauty looks on a WOC.

I think I finally made up my mind. I think. If the collection goes up Sunday/Monday I'll order OF l/s and Talk Soflty to Me l/g online. Then I'll go try on the blushes in person to see which ones I really want. That's it, it's a pretty collection just beautiful, but if I don't buy a lot I don't feel like I'm missing out this time.

do you already have wog?  that's the one thing that really has me on the fence, but i did skip it last time so.....
Nope. I ordered it the first time around, but had to return it b/c it had an ingredient I'm allergic to. It wasn't all that anyway.

I'm allegric to the EDES as well. I don't know what ingredient I'm allegric to in it I wish I did because it makes my eye super itchy and it leaves a bruise as well. I wanted to try the EDSF but if the shadow makes me itchy then so could the face stuff.

Was it the color? Sometimes i get a bad reaction to Mac' s special formula shadows; copper, brown, orange, and red- from prolong wear and peacocky I skipped the Coil ELectric Cool Shadow because of it.

I don't think so but I could be wrong. I'm pretty sure its just what's in the product. I had the dark purple one and Blue Orbit. My eye has never itched like that I even went to the eye doctor to figure out what was going on and I narrowed it down to those products. My wallet is thankful but it sucks because some of them are so pretty. I haven't had an issue with MES, Mega Metals or Prolong wear so far.

I know I'm allergic to Bismuth Oxychloride. It's in these WOG and in Mac's mineralized shadows and other mineralized products. Is that even in the EDES shadows? I own two and I've tested them with no problems. Usually, if I wear something with BO it only takes 10 minutes for my skin to react. I certainly hope they don't contain that ingredient because I have 3 of them. Time to do a google search.

Bismuth Oxychloride is in the one EDES I have, Grand Galaxy. So i assume yes. Since I was interested, I checked out other non mineralize MAC products and its also listed as an ingredient those. The colors I randomly checked, Club, Love Lace, Deep Blue Green, Later , Emerald Dusk, Nubile Paint Pot, Sparkle Neely Sparkle, One to Watch BO seems like a very common ingredient, it's in blushes too, both MAC, MUFE, and NARS I'm finding.

That's crazy. I have all of the shadows you listed and I've used them a million times without problems. I've definitely never had problems with MUFE or Nars. I know I can't use Bare Esentuals AT ALL or Becca and the new Dior foundation that all have BO in them. Maybe it's the amount of BO used. I need to compare ingredients across products and see.

BO shows up about midway on the ingredients list for all the products I mentioned. I picked out some mineralize products and it appears midway on the list for those as well.

Interesting. Now I wish I had the boxes for those items still. I just looked up the ingredients for some specific MUFE products I have and it doesn't show there. In my experience, BO is usually listed last. Now I'm grossed out, but if it hasn't affected me before, I don't expect it to do so now. I'm going to look at products I've tried and know I have problems with to see if there are other common ingredients. This sounds like so much work. :eek:hboy:

Maybe it's BO combined with other minerals in a BO item as opposed to BO in a non mineral product. I actually just found out today how common BO is. Never knew it was a problem for some. Aside from MAC i don't follow mineralize products. I just have issues with eye products and certain colors.

I hoard boxes too. I like going back and checking out the ingredients, and the evolution of the packaging. I have a nice amount of packaging, not too bad. I toss the box when I have emptied the product. Mostly lip products.

Please let me know your thoughts on the Face Kit. I was considering it when I placed my pre-order at Macy's today but was in a hurry and forgot to look at it. I'm headed out of town on business and won't get to play around with the collection til Saturday. I ordered:

Small vanity
Stolen moment
glamourdaze
WOG

Small Vanity is such a lovely color. Not a super deep color on darker skintones, but a very lovely rose-tan pink that would a very soft, sweet look.
