Thank you:) I was excited about that one I got to try Tendertones finally. 

remember not everyone that is at a mac counter dressed in black is  a permanent artist. only the permanent artist will know about the collections because they get trained on them months before they are out. freelancers won't know unless they are told about the collections. so that could be it

Thank you!  That explains why sometimes I feel like I know more about the upcoming collections than the MUA.  This helps alot and keeps me from getting annoyed when that happens. 

I've decided I'm skipping most of these.  Ill get the red lustre, maybe earthshine,  water and earthly.  I am not going to get anything that is a slight dupe of anything, and will stick to what is unique to my collex and that I will actually use.  Esperanza Spaulding, Sergio Mendes are in concert this week.  coming up Santana, Anita Baker, and Fiona Apple will be here. Not to mention the few plays I want to go to.   I can't afford it all.  LOL 

I'll be only back from vacation on 7th July :( :( I hope nothing has gone!

I was waiting impatiently for my own S3/C3 order when I saw that video. I loved your sincere enthusiasm. Very recognizable ;) Certainly added to my S3 joy

I am really not a fan of lustres so I will probably skip all the lip products (perhaps I will get Cut a Caper). 

Even though I think the formula of the MES has improved, I find myself rarely reaching for them though... Buying MES simply because they are pretty is something I will not do (at least not this time).I prefer the ease of eyeshadow pallets I guess... I might get an MSF and or MB but I am not sure about those either. I have bought so many powders lately that I am not sure these products will add anything to my collection. I do not like too much shimmer either. I will see how more swatches turn out and perhaps I will get sucked right back in...

*fingers crossed this goes live for pro today so i can see real swatchies soon*

^ x2 I'm ready to start shopping

Here's my final list:

Earthshine MSF

Light Year MSF

Star Wonder MSF

Cut a caper

Venus

Pleasureseeker

Astral CS

Celestial Kiss CS

Supernova MB

Ring of Saturn MB

Magnetic Attract  MES

Neo Nebula MES

Yes, it looks really good on her. I didn't like the first swatches we've seen, but now I'm wondering if I need it.

Impatiently waiting for T's swatches.

Hope you all enjoy your hauls. I've decided to sit this collection out (other than a single lippie) and wait for another that's less shimmery; it's just not a good look for me anymore.

Since I'm being restrained with this one, I've decided to treat myself to some new brushes when I'm in the US this weekend. The Canadian prices are about 20% higher (don't even get me started about how ridiculous that is since (1) there's nowhere near that level of disparity between our currencies and (2) MAC's roots are Canadian). It's a good opportunity to get some permanent items at US prices before August's price increase.

Please, please don't go up until the 30th!!! *prays*

LA LA LA LA LA LAAA  I'm not paying attention to the pictures LOL

Really trying to sit 99% of this collection out (Fire Sign l/s might win me over), as well as Illustrated, Style Seeker, etc etc. The only two collections I'm planning to sink my wallet into are By Request and Marilyn. 

Come onnn will-power! LOL
