Ok, I need input. I have the money to get either Supernova or Venus and Cut a Caper. Should I get another blush or the two lippies from this collection? Hmmm... lol. I wish I could just get all of them when it goes on Nordies but just can't justify it. I've ordered Star Wonder, CoU, Lightyear, RoS, and now Stratus. Decisions, decisions. Lol!!!

Light Year is just the perfect amount of peach and lightness! I looove the look of Star Wonder in the pan - it's the most gorgeous MSF because of its complex colors, but I think for my skin tone Light Year's the winner for me. I had Porcelain Pink, Blonde, and Lightscapade before HC and now Earthshine, Light Year and Center of the Universe are in my collection. I so sooo wish I had Perfect Topping, that's another one that looks absolutely yummy in the pan! I'm really loving Center of the Universe, though, too! It's definitely my fav to pair with my coral blushes. Earthshine was a fun experiment in contouring, but I'm still trying to find the right technique to apply it! I think it might get a little more use in the Fall when I get back into my plummy lips!

Your MSF collection doubled! Hope you'll like the new ones from HC. I agree Center of the Universe and Earthshine are beautiful! Earthshine might work as eyeshadow, too? Are you going to check out the collection in store on Thursday? greengrin.gif

I wanted to show you this combo I used today! I snapped this right before work. Its Fire Sign with Now in Season lipgelee. I love how it turned out, I love FS so much! It's def a red I can wear without feeling self-concious. And it pulls either red or pink with different lippies on top! I'm excited to do some combos with Venus! It's like a pinker gem of roses on me

Here's a closer pic in different lighting, sorry about the large pores on my cheeks :(...this lighting gave my face a weird color. And a tan seems to emphasize my pores n freckles.2012-06-29_15-14-58_197.jpg

 

And heres a swatch of my Sky...

Great haul, singer82! And thank you for the picture! Fire Sign looks gorgeous on you. I can tell why you love it! A pinker gem of roses - sounds perfect to me. =) Beautiful! heart.gif

I'm still wanting Supernova but it's not online yet besides being sold out on mac's site. I have a feeling this collection is gonna make my husband not happy lol.

 

Dang they caught on!!

Using a primer with SPF is a good thing IMO because you need a primer anyway.

I have never heard of this one before.Have to check it out...

I received my gratis items and I've been testing these eyeshadows out before they release at our counters on Thursday and so far I like them.  I was never a mineralize eyeshadow fan, but after playing with these (specifically Sky and Water) I have a new outlook on them.  In the picture below I tested out the ME in Water (all over the lid).  Water seems like it's not a favorite so of course I chose it as one of the first ones to test. Lol

Miracle Skin Transformer is awesome and it fills in all the pores too. I use the tinted one (Light) now but they have a small "to go" size at Sephora of the translucent one for like $9.

The things I REALLY wanted in my gratis package I didn't get (all cremesheen glasses, Earthshine and the VAE) =( LOL so I will have to come out of the pocket for those soon.  They are sooooo pretty.  Especially for brown gals.  I know our clients and customers are going to have a ball with this collection.  It's so perfect for summer.

How can you do that?

 

It's probably for the best that I don't have a CCO nearby, whenever I go to one, I always leave with so much stuff.

 

I have other Mac counters (one in Bentalls in Kingston and one in House of Fraser in Guidlford), but I prefer ordering from Debenhams. I usually go through Topcashback for some cashback as well, if I can remember. :)

No idea how I only got into MAC a year and a half ago - it probably should've happened sooner! We also have a CCO a 15 minute drive from home - oh dear!

 

Edit - I discovered today that you can collect Nectar points by buying from Debenhams online. That would have earned me a lot haha

I decided to check my nectar points from the first time in 3 years and there's a link on there that gives you the points automatically as long as you use that specific link to buy stuff. They have them for amazon etc also

Hope it goes up on Debenhams on Monday morning, so I can order it and receive by Thursday (hopefully), and then pick some different swirled MSFs up on Thursday. That's my plan anyway.

I tried supernova today and It looks great! I had to put benefit's porefessional on as a primer to minimize the appearance of my pores.
