LOL, I was gonna write the same thing!

Sephoraholic, you look amazing! Totally jealous of your hair. 

Well, my haul is tiny compare to some and i'm not planning on any BUs, but it sure cost a big chunk o' change.

Light Year MSF

Star Wonder MSF

Earthshine MSF

 

Solar Ray MB

Stratus MB

 

Earthly e/s

Magnetic Attraction e/s

Neo Nebula e/s

Bright Moon e/s

Sky e/s

 

Now i'm thinking about Invincible Light and Universal Appeal e/s's and Pleasureseeker lipstick and the 286 brush...

 

Stop me, before i spend again!

This is a good sized haul, not tiny!!!! Great picks from the selection!

Do you all keep your inserts inside of the products? I'm not sure whether this will make them more dusty, because I'm thinking every time the product moves around, the plastic insert will rub against the surface of the product, and cause some product to rub off. Is that crazy thinking?

I guess I'm the last to post my beautiful swirls, but the collection launched here on Monday. (finally )

     Center of the Universe

  Light Year

Star Wonder

  Supernova

Earthshine

  Ring of Saturn and Earthly mes

  Cut a caper l/s

If I could, I would definitely buy a BU for each one of them!!! I'm still thinking going back to buy Stratus, Meteoric(or a Cut a caper BU) and another CotU but with more gold in it.

I've noticed that my Ring of Saturn didn't have the plastic cover that the mineralize products usually have. Should I return it or it's ok?

I do keep them in the containers.  If you look closely, you'll see that the plastic doesn't come into contact with the product.  It has an edge that rests on the lip of the pot and is held in place when you click the lid closed.  When I do travel with these (on VERY rare occassions due to how fragile they are) I like having that extra layer of protection against my product.  Then between the plastic on top of the powder I'll layer a couple sheets of tissue paper or Kleenex (another on here suggested cotton balls... Genius!) to add a buffer between the powder and the lid.

We are HAPPY to have your swirl pics girl!  Thanks!! 

That is curious why your RoS doesn't have a plastic lid...  Hmmm?  Did the SA grab it from the drawer?  If so, it's probably fine!  You'd be able to tell if it had been used, I think.  Lots of dust kicks up with these and there'd be noticible evidence on the inner rim.  If it bothers you, definitely take it back for a replacement.  If it helps at all... I LOVE your RoS!  AND your Earthshine swirl is exactly what I went searching for!  YAY!!

I also keep the inserts. Mainly because I think they help to protect the product, and maybe it helps to keep the powder residue contained. I just open them upside down so the inserts are in the lid.

I like how the swirl in your Light Year reminds me of Superman's emblem.

He grabbed it from the drawer, yes! (I kept following him because when I asked him to let me pick the swirls I wanted, he didn't seem very happy about it ) Well, it doesn't bother me much..but I wanted to be sure cause I like this one a lot to take it back!

Thank you PixieDancer, I adore Earthshine To be honest, I went to another mac counter for the MSF's, mes and l/s and the MUA there was such a sweet person, very heplful!!

Well, I can't help you there because I absolutely love the 286 brush.

You look gorgeous!

I'm dying to get my hands on Flamingo.

Okay, so I am late to the party, but here is my damage. Some of them have a little love going on & the pictures came out a little dark. Lightscapade isn't in the family picture, but there she was in all her glory behind the counter. I spotted it and said "is that what I think it is" and she said "Ligh" and I said "lemme see 'em"...so I scored LS too!

Nice haul!!!

You know I went to 5 different stores, searched through probably 35+Earthshines and still didn't find one that was even close to what you wanted!

Not that anyone is counting or anything, but I did the math...
In 24 hours, there have been 115 HC posts (starting at 6358, and not counting this one that I am about to make)
In order to reach 10,000 and come close to that Hello Kitty thread, we need 3,527 more posts.
At the rate of 115 a day, it will take about 30 days...
So what I am sayin' here is
"Com'on people! Pick up the pace!
As you were!

I only said it was tiny compared with some here, esp. those who got BUs of many things. I know it isn't really tiny 

I'm usually really sensible with collections, but i went crazy on this one.  My previous biggest hauls were Fabulous Felines and Quite Cute and i didn't get anywhere near this much stuff.

I keep them. I think the inserts help keep the products from getting beat up. But, then, i keep my products in their boxes! Well, except when i put them in my purse makeup kit.

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!   :)

Ever since this collection launched online, this thread has been flooded with excitement!! I have not been this excited for a mineralize collection since In The Groove collection with Stereo Rose MSF that made a comeback!

I'm sorry for my losing track of this thread. I'm so behind! I look forward to catching up. I just wore my SW for the first time this past weekend and it looked ahmazing! I looove it.

I tried to wear Earthly, patted did not swirl into it & it looked horrible, super muddy. Anyone else have this issue? What was the remedy?

What brush do you all prefer to use with wet MESs?

TIA.
