I thought I"m the only one who thinks like that. Thus, I'm not so interested in this collection. Plus, the size looks like a normal blush size. So, it'll be reallly hard to get to only one side of the blush.

Awww! When I talk about staying power, I'm referring to how long they last on your face. Most blushes and normal MSFs, I will apply in the morning and they will still be on my face at the end of the day. With the mineralize blushes, I find the colour fades very quickly in comparison and disappears - and that's totally not cool.

Yeah, I was thinking about that, too. I don't WANT to have to use a smaller brush. I use a 187 a lot for blush (since most are too dark for me to use much of without looking ridiculous) and that brush would be WAY too big for half of a MB. I have the 187, too, but where it's smaller I find it denser, and as such the 187 is easier to use to get just a touch of the blush. Bah.

More BPBs, please! Those are gorgeous shades, buildable, nice finish and last all day. Why aren't any of them perm!?!

I am guessing these will be the same prices as the regular MSF blushes.

Re: MAC - Grand Duos Discussion

I've been trying to stay away from Specktra b/c of lack of funds, but when I heard about this collection ... I had to come back. I have a feeling that I'm going to be so incredibly broke in 2009, between all these seemingly awesome new collections (new dazzleglasses? I'm so there!) and my recent bath & body product addiction.

I wanted to type exactly the same post.
I agree with everything you wrote, everything! I've been avoiding Specktra but this collection sounds just too damn good. Anyhow, my bank account won't be thrilled but who cares when I'll be pretty lol.

Mineralize blushes (this summer at least) were going for S$37... so if these new ones are going for S$41, it's definitely more expensive.

Consider joining me in the "no backup" pack. Honestly, MAC releases so many colours and products, there is always something new. No more backups for me!

I will! But I got weak yesterday and bought the So Ceylon backup. It is the perfect darker MSF shade for me that I rather bought a backup of it than the Brunette MSF.

I will try to stay strong now so that I can buy more new things instead or to save some money. Well and because my little backup drawer is full now.

No, that's 30 € (current rate). I think, that is really expensive! The last ones were 25 €.
