Thank you Ejka and Erine for clarifying the eye safeness of the blushes . I don't like to take risks on products for the eyes. I don't have sensitive eyes but I don't think it's worth any risk if something happens to my eyes...

Quad 3 has something for every purple lover. The standout for me was Bruised plum - so pigmented and so pretty. Now I have to stop thinking about the quads because I'm on the pittyful path of enabling myself .

A nice coral or pink-coral that complements you're complexion could be your go-to spring/summer lipstick, so you should probably check out Fresh Salmon (especially if you end up getting RP).

Then I will only get Azalea Blossom b/c I want/need a pink blush (again, if it shows up well on me). Will pass on RP b/c I have Nars Gilda.

Yes, I'm just building up my collection. Thanks for your mini review, Ejka. I try to get only items I really like b/c of my limited budget here. Another thing I could do is getting the high demand items now... and maybe wait a while to get the other ones?
So I think I'd go with purple quad, AB blush, Fresh Salmon, and Nanogold b/c I think it will be a nice highlight color for the quad?
Let's see tomorrow though, I'm so excited .

I hoipe you do get all of the blush ombres from Spring Colour Forecast! I have yet to post part 4 of my SCF haul.

Yup, I am one of those people! It has no payoff for me Sometimes it looks the same as you described, and other times just seems invisible! It is going back for me

I need to see Azalea Blossom on you. I have yet to see anyone with NW45 + skin look good with that blush. I am NW45/NW47 and I returned mine. It is way too ashy for that skin tone.

I will need a Starbucks Latte before.
Maybe you should have the coffee after the makeup shopping to calm you down

Hope you like Laugh A Lot.

re: MAC- Spring Color Forecast Discussion

Wow! This thread is insane. I have been lurking here for a little while, but not in a creepy way. That sounded bad. Anyway, I am trying to purchase some lip products from this collection without swatching since I live so far away from my nearest counter. From the new lipglasses, I have already purchased Cha Cha, Cultureclash, and Purple Rage. I have not purchased any of the lipsticks since I have not been brave enough to without swatching, but I do already own Hang Up. I was wondering if any of you lovely ladies have recommendations on the must have lip products of this collection. It would really help me out. I have fair skin and dark hair and eyes if that helps. Oh, and if any eye products accidentally fall into your recommendations, that wouldn't be so bad either. Thanks!

Glad to help! I totally understand the budget issue - European prices are insane. 27 Euros per blush... Your list is lovely! Happy hauling tomorrow to you and the rest of the German ladies .

Off topic: the MAC counter in Graz only got SCF, Too Fabulous and Viva Glam, which probably means that Riveting and Art Supplies will be only sold at exclusive locations (if any???) in Austria. Can anyone confirm that?

That sounds about right - we aren't getting Riveting and Art Supplies here at all, and SCF, TF and VG are the March releases. Riveting and Art Supplies don't seem to be available in a large part of european locations (the same ones that didn't get Lilyland, IIRC).

Kinda OT, but I'm wondering if I should order a CCB in Pearl. What do you ladies think?
I really love pearl CCB. It really is a multi-purpose product. You can use it as a cheek/brow bone highlighter, mixed with a bit of foundation, on your lips, etc. I love pearl & luna ccb and use one or the other on a daily basis.

Glad that you are posting! It seems that the must have lip products from this collection are bubblegum, fresh salmon, laugh a lot, and beigeland. I am fair w/ dark hair and beigeland, victorian, and pink burst are my favorite lipsticks from this collection.

Oh that explains it then. Didn't realise we ever got anything before the US, so she was right about us getting it on Thursday after all!

Only thing is, she did say that Viva Glam won't be out till the 15th for some reason... now I really hope that WAS a mistake, saves me waiting

Welcome! I hear ya - I don't live near anything Many of these lovely ladies are my eyes on the counter.

I agree with Coachkitten's recommendations, I would also add Gaga & Cyndi if you haven't gotten them already.

I'm very fair with dark hair & brown/hazel eyes.

re: MAC- Spring Color Forecast Discussion

Im still not 100% sure as the prices aren't up on the UK site yet as it is a new product! I have come up with a set price for the blush, international postage and packing and paypal fees though for anyone who wants one as I assume the blushes will be about £20 here (sooo expensive but they are so pretty it'll be worth it!). I just hope they dont sell out mega-fast here!

re: MAC- Spring Color Forecast Discussion

I went to Saks yesterday, and they still had one RP left. I really had to leave so i thought i would just go back the next day, but they were sold out

The MA told me they're getting another shipment in a week or two, and they were hoping to get more RP since so many people asked for it. They're taking names of people who wants it, and they'll call once they get it.

So I guess, there's still hope for people who missed it

Ripe Peach for sure!

And Maybe Azalea Blossom or Vintage Grape. For some reason I can't stop thinking of VG!

We will see in two hours. Yay!
