I, blinkymei, solemnly swear to resist all temptation to purchase from this collection due to its extremely cute packaging and pretty colors because I will not have enough spending money on the fabulous things that the fall collections have to offer...

dreamer, you are lucky... lol

Yes you did! I thank you for that! Twitter is always running in the background when i am home

My boob story is as follows:

The bf and I were on a very very long drive to Montreal (6 hrs). So as we were driving, he would look at the time every so often, announce it, and then immediately follow up with the word boobies and proceed to grab mine

For example:

Him: 2:56, Boobies :grab:
Me: What the hell, why?!
Him: Because anytime is a good time for boobies

He repeated this every hour or so

And would you all believe that not once during my trip did I wear a cleavage top?! Shocking, i know!

About Graphic Gardens, I am convinced I need to look at all of this in person, but I don't think I will be making any purchases. There is just too much to look forward to for fall!

Mmm... I'm torn. I kind of want Sun Siren but I'm a NW15 and have never used a bronzer. would the bronzer work for me? I was also thinking of Sweat Tease because of the lusterglass (lipglass?). They seem like such good deals since you're getting over $100 of product for $60.

But then I also want a MSF or two from Colour Craft LOL. I can't have all of it! I wish the MAC near me was in Nordstroms now and not Macy's LOL. Guess I'll have to drive so I can decide.

Yup I am! My MA told me that this collection has officially arrived here today, but I couldn't make it down to check it out.

I don't know if I'll have budget for this collection though. I spent money on the F&F sale, and I spent even more money shopping for "work" clothes (I've finally gotten an internship). I've already spent about SGD$300 so far.

Does anyone know what are the canadian prices on this collection or when it will be appearing in La Bay?
The La Bay MAs told me it's close to end of July but since the collection is already out on Nordstorm.com so early...maybe it's gonna be sooner

seriously, i can't decided. i don't have any really good brushes so, which would be more useful for a brush newbie?

I would wait and buy full sizes slowly instead, LE brush set aren't great at all.

(If you have a CCO close try to get the holliday set from MAC with full size brush inside, it's a really good deal)

I wanted the Graphic Garden eye palette, and maybe the brush set. But I'm sure they're going to cost a bomb, and I don't have the means to spend so much money on makeup right now.

I wonder what's the quality of these brushes like though?

The full-size brushes are definitely nicer. If you still decide to get some SE brushes, stick with the eyeshadow brushes. From my experience they are better quality-wise. And if you want a 129 in cheaper, try to get a 129SH. The 129SE I got is totally useless.

^Agreed. I'm passing the brush sets since I'm now starting to invest on full size brushes.

Hi, if you're like me and you like to carry brushes in your make-up bag, you really can't go wrong with Mac's brush sets. I personally love them. While I agree that you should get your full size brush collection started, one of these sets won't hurt. As for quality, I have never had a problem with any of the brushes in these sets.

I saw this collection today. The holographic packaging of the palettes are very special! I love the floral design of Fresh Cut palette. The e/s colours are dupable though. I pass everything but this is a pretty collection.

I went to Nordies tonight, I pre-ordered the Graphic Gardens palette. Debating if I should go back & pre-order the Summer Crop lip bag... I'm wondering if those colors will even show up on my lips! My lips are pretty pigmented & most light shades disappear =/

I think Graphic Garden looks so freaking beautiful. However, I am at that point where I really am sick over how many eyeshadows I have, so I really don't think I need anymore. I just wish all my dupes for this were in a cute little palette!

I feel the same way. I know the only reason I would be getting either of them would be for the packaging, but that novelty wears off pretty quick anyway. And even though I ordered the Sweet Tease box, I don't know if I even want to bother with that now. I really like all of the items, but I just don't really need any of them.

I saw this collection at last! I love the packaging, but the product colors were very blah (read: typical and dupeable). Pass. What a disappointment!

I'll say skip it, unless you really don't have those shades or if you really want it for the packaging.

I'm sure there will be more awesome things coming out for the fall collections and thereafter, so save some money, lady!

Hehe yeah I think it wasn't hard to pass this collection at all, surprisingly. This is the first collection that I've completely passed ever since the start of my MAC addiction last year.
