Peachsuns, perhaps you should contact MAC. I'm sure they appreciate customer comments.

Maybe if LY is a stellar runaway they may re-promote it like By Candlelight and Comfort.

But who knows. Its always best to get a b/up. But don't forget MAC always brings out shades that resemble each other.

A very wise advise. Thank you, Fiberluver! I've never finished any MSF before. I hope my Light Years will last me for a long time.

Glad I could help!!!

I agree. BU is best, because look what happened with the most the recent repromote of Lightscapade, beige blah, not like the beautiful soap bubbles of old. Who knows, if MAC ever repromotes LY will it be the same, will they have access to the same materials they used to make it, all these worries.

oh yes, and I've been using Celestial Kiss non stop since I got it (two weeks) and its already almost 1/4 empty. Now I remember why I stopped buying cremesheens, MAC Y U SO STINGY!!!

I kid, I kid, (sort of).

I was thinking more about the base pink color as opposed to the swirls. Mea culpa! I love both, though. My Porcelain Pink is flat - that's how much love it gets. My flat msfs: PP, Warm Blend, Sunny By Nature, Cheeky Bronze and Brunette.

i didn't buy ly, but i keep wishing i did! i think it's sold out around here though...

Thanks for the heads up.  I will compare my Porcelain Pink with Light Year.  I had some trouble with Porcelain Pink.  I bought it in the CCO.  I tried to pick one similar to the tester in the CCO because I loved it on but when I got home it just didn't look the same to me.  I thought I would buy another when it was repromoted but I just couldn't find the right one.  Maybe it's time to try it again.

BTW I wore Fire Sign and Astral again last night.  I just can't believe how much I'm wearing these two.  These are bright colors for me and not what I usually go for.  Even if I buy colors like these, I rarely end up using them much.

You will LOVE Fire Sign. It's my favourite MAC lippie this year.

The thing about Fire Sign and Astral is that they're bright but also subdued just a touch (no white base), plus they let your natural lip tone come through a bit, which is perfect, especially on pigmented lips. They look cute and glam without seeming like you're trying too hard, which I love. I've had a dark tan for me this year and these colors look just amazing and effortless combined with some color on my face for a change.

It's shaping up to be one of my favorite everyday colors, but it's sure got stiff competition from Cusp of Dawn, which is just gorgeous, subtle and super modern - that one will probably wind up taking the crown!

Does anyone who has Ring of Saturn have a Petticoat msf also? I'm wondering how similar they are, they look kind of alike in temptalias swatches and on her cheek.

I have both. Petticoat gives me a pinkish shimmer, more of an ethereal glow, while RoS give me a natural warm, lustrous, flush. It actually has more of a deeper color than petticoat on me. The reddish color really pulls out in mine. I'm NC45/NC50 for reference.
