I finally saw this collection yesterday. What a disappointment. The packaging looked very cheap, the compact doesn't have that nice substantial "heft" the the previous years have seen and I could have found a nicer clutch at Walmart for $5.99.
None of the colors seemed that special and the glosses were much too sheer for my taste.
With the money I saved passing on this collection I was able to get:

Pink Opal p/g
Parfait Amore (sp?) pro-pan e/s
Viva Glam I l/s
Viva Glam VI SE l/s
Daft Pink Mineralize blush

It's less coral-y looking IRL and more of a true nude-beige.

You're gorgeous!!!

Thank you sooooooooooooo so much, Erica!!! You are so beautiful!!!

Treasured looks so good

and sounds good based on your description!
I wonder how it differs from Nude Rose from DSquared

I hope to get this with my next order of MAC, which will be with Love Lace & Warm & Cozy. I hope it's not sold out by then! Your first picture post and it was for me! I feel so honored!!!

Thank you again!

you bought yourself some fab products instead!

 

[ambidextrous]

I'm so bummed, the whole collection won't come to Austria at all... and the German mac homepage only ships within Germany lol... better for my wallet as I only wanted the powder for the pretty compact... but still... mehh lol

 

[*JJ*]

at first i was disappointed too, but on the other hand: 28€ for a lipstick? no thanks..

exactly! think of what other goodies you can get for that!

I got the compact just because a dear friend bought it for me in UK, because here it's gone. It's way too expensive, but I was obsessed with this, so it's a good investment for my mental health

I'll probably have my baby in 2 or 3 weeks

i hope everything goes well with giving birth! and the compact does look so beautiful. i just can't afford it!

 

[s_lost]

Oh, sorry, I was kidding - the compact is my baby

(probably in my head this sounded funnier that in my poor English)
