Thanks a ton LIpglass Junkie!  I had just refreshed the site and noticed how slow it was loading so I figured something was up but I didn't see anything.  Thank goodness you posted which prompted me to do a search for products.  I only found the blushes at first but little by little I saw products from the other collections.  

I ended up only getting Lovecloud, Modern Mandarin and Immortal Flower out of the blushes.  I wanted to try the pinks again but I'm pretty happy with the pinks I have and I think the others may be a bit too cool for me.

Just got MM and FoJ. I really hope I like them lol.

I got Lovecloud and Full of Joy and I'm pretty much satisfied. I will check out MM in store and see how it works with my skintone. I also got Pink Cult, which I'm excited to try. Thank goodness I finally started layering powder blushes over cremes, all my powder blushes used to fade in minutes!

I was so conflicted about what to get, and I don't have many blushes anyway that I just said the hell with it and got all 6 plus Pink Cult.  Theoretically I'm set for blushes until the next Ice Age.

No love for Magenta? lol. 

^No, I have my limits LOL. At NC20 I think Magenta might look  a bit scary...

That's true! My skin is even lighter and every time I apply Her Blooming Cheek I'm like  until I blend and buff it out with my Too Faced candlelight powder lol. I can imagine Magenta would be very similar. 

I'm still a little sad to leave Peony Petal out of the mix, but if I did that I would have to get Pink Tea, too (go broke or go home), and that one is definitely not getting any love from me (I'd rather go for Pink Cult instead). I have NARS Desire and Gaiety, so I'm good on blue-pink blushes, anyway.

I'm so excited to get Modern Mandarin!

I thought this was a MAC store/website exclusive in the UK, but the promo pic is up on the debenhams website! Now I can get points :)

OMGGG... I hauled WAY more than I told myself I would... Just couldn't resist!!!

I got:

- from Tres Cheek: Pink Tea, Full of Joy, Modern Mandarin

- from Extra D: Whisper of Gilt, Modern Pewter

- from Reel Sexy: Pink Cult, Reel Sexy, Watch Me Simmer

Plus 2nd day shipping because I wanted it processed faster. This is the biggest single haul I've done in a LONG time!! I wish Ebates did MAC online :(

snatched up modern mandarin! now along with my items from reel sexy and extra dimension...i think i'm going on a no buy until hey sailor swatches and confirmed info on lips and tips comes out.

Me too ladies.  Full of Joy for sure and I am trying to decide between Pink Cult and Modern Mandarin. :)

I wish all of you a happy hauling day. Fingers crossed this comes out tomorrow online when I am at work so I can order. I've been stalking & there is still nothing online yet. I'm so impatient!!!!!

I think Modern Mandarin is the more unique shade. Although Pink Cult is matte and very neutral and flattering, I think Modern Mandarin is going to fly faster since orange is very seasonally "in" right now. 

Me too! Yay for team 3- FOJ, IF, and LC! 

I was thinking the same thing about the hey sailor blushes. I almost didnt get IF cause of them, but we dont know what they will look like yet. And it just looks so awesome I'd rather risk it. I love that its a soft and light pastely peach/coral and can be built up. I'm in need of more peach/coral blushes anyways. $159 later after these colls I must close my wallet until Hey Sailor!

If I wasnt so damn pale and scared of it I'd love to get MM. I just dont think I'd like it on me. I cant risk it cause I buy all online. So I'm so envious of you beautiful woc. It will look absolutely amazing on you!

My husband came home today and this came online! What an awesome sunday!!!!

Just team 3 so far: Full of Joy, Immortal Flower and Lovecloud.

The items launched online and I couldn't resist jumping on Team 4. I picked up Modern Mandarin. Ahhhhh well. 

I agree, though. I'm really hopeful for the Hey Sailor blushes! 
 

Edit: spelling lol

I do not think i will haul the next collection. I got a ton from these three.Four blushes,three lippies,3sfs and 1edsf and i think i will get another one for sure once i see more swatches. I hope i do not like anything until the mac by request collection.

One of the reasons I allowed myself such an excessive haul was that I'm probably skipping most of the rest of them. until later this fall, unless something really unusual wows me.  Not much in Hey Sailor rings my bell,  not thrilled by Lips 'n Tips, Beth Ditto will probably be brights I'm too old to wear, and I wasn't into  by the Mac by request choices.  Not much going on for me until Marilyn, most likely!

Good for you girl! Rock that MM! :)

does anyone who has depotted blushes have any advice?

i purchased a couple of blush palettes, and i was planning to depot the tres cheek ones as well as a couple of others from my collection...

Just placed an order:

Tres Cheek: Immortal Flower & LoveCloud

* Team 2 for now - am debating between getting Modern Mandarin or Pink Tea/Pink Cult, or just leaving them and getting one of the Hey Sailor blushes that I love the look of.

Reel Sexy:  Reel Sexy, Watch Me Simmer & Star Quality

I ordered Immortal Flower from this collection.  I was tempted by the other shades, but I recently hauled a couple of Chanel blushes & had to have some restraint.

Enjoy your haul!!!!! I'm feeling some buyers remorse over not getting Pink Cult or Immortal Flower. I just don't think I really need them. Plus with future collections coming out & the possibility of newer blushes, I really shouldn't feel such remorse, but yet, I do.

Would you please post a swatch once you get Modern Mandarin? Your skintone is close to mine and your swatches were what convinced me to get Watch Me Simmer and Dish it Up.

MM is the first item to sell out on the US site, out of all three collections I think.

Ohhh I will! I'm determined to make it work for me lol. I'm so glad it has a hint of red/pink in it, otherwise I would never even have considered it!

Sure! I did regular shipping so I expect I will probably get MM next Monday! I have a MAC over appointment for this Saturday, though, so I'll see if they can work MM into my appointment and I can take a picture afterward. Maybe they can throw out some ideas on what to wear with it, too!

Thanks, that would be so great! I think I can make it work for me too, I think I just need visual proof to pull the trigger since I haven't found any swatches with skin my shade.
