Thank you so much! I hate living so far away from anything MAC. No stores, counters, or CCOs anywhere near me. You are awesome!

Whoever complained about the MBs being too sheer never saw the ones from Naturally. XD

Or they never tried Merrily.  Whoa, that ones goes into hooker from the eighties territory really quick if I don't use a very light hand.

Thanks, Naynadine, for the color story!!!!

 

I think there isn't anything i would die for, but some things sound lovely. My list for TEST is:

 

Mineralize Tinted Lip Balms:

-- Pure & Tender – Plumy creamy nude

-- Slightly Nude – Nudey coral with subtle pink pearlized pigments

-- Nice & Simple – Bronzy gold with multi-dimensional pearlized pigments

-- Rosy Romance – Bluish plum with subtle pink pearlized pigments

Stay Warm! doesn't do it for me

 

Lipsticks:

-- Cozy Up – Deep caramel (Matte)

-- Warm Companion – Beige with gold pearlized pigments (Frost)

Hot Chocolate is something i'll look at. But i've got more Plums than i can use, so i'll probably pass. i AM looking for a good brown for me, however, so if it's actually chocolaty...

 

I'm a mineralize fan, and the eyeshadows and blushes and skinfinishes all sound nice, but based on the descriptions, at least, i'm not really panting with desire for any of them. i did go crazy with Heavenly Creature, so i may have enough mineralize stuff to last me next few years :-) (aw, who am i kidding...)

I hope this trend for earthy, bronzey, and coppery blushes will continue in 2013. I'm still very much in love with Worldly Wealth. Lately, I've been some of my favorite brownish blushes like Personal Style and All's Good. They look lovely on pale NW skin. heart2.gif

And on medium to medium tan tones too. I frequently use bronzer in place of blush, especially with purple smoky eyes.

When I first heard about this collection from Liba I thought the eyeshadows were repromote too, but it seems like they're not. Might be similar to other I own already (ie every MES ever released by Mac lol.gif), but I might just have to pick them up for my collection.

They look different enough (cooler) to me to justify a purchase. NW people will be in trouble lol.gif

Seems like the blogger deleted the pic from Twitter and all the info on her blog as well. And since I only copied&pasted the pic and didn't upload it, it doesn't show up in my post anymore either, I guess. 001_unsure.gif

So after successfully sitting out on Marilyn and Glamourdaze, I'm back on Specktra, and excited for this collection. I decided to try to sit out the MBs and MSFs, but let's see how successful I am with that lol. I haven't touched Light Year or Saturn and I used Supernova all of 5 times (all from HC collection).

 

The only thing I want for sure from this collection is a tinted lip balm. Those sound glorious!! However, if they are anything like the Suntints from Hey Sailor, I will gladly not get them. I hated those nonono.gif They were sheer, not very moisturizing and left a horrible taste in my mouth. Did anyone else feel this way, or did I get a bad batch. I have all three shades with B/Us because I was sure that I would love and use these up , but I have only ever used one. And it sucked.

        nope. i got the au rose one and i dont like it. i dries my lips in an awful way. crack pieces would fall off, awful. so i hate it. the color is pretty, i love it actually but not worth the money and putting on lips. i tried to returned but i was too late.

Oh, well I usually buy from Macy's or Bloomingdale's. They don't seem to really mind. Forgot abt the MAC store's policies.

I hope the balms are vanilla scented and not like the Tendertones.
