Dahhh. It's so tempting! LOL. It's sitting there in my shopping basket while I try to decide between TdF l/g. Usually if there's a vaguely similar color in the permanent line, I'll skip a back-up. In this case, hoarding tendencies are rising!

I will be going on Monday to my MAC counter as soon as they open to get a few of the piggies. Unfortunately that's probably all I'll get, since I'm low on funds until the Naturally collection comes out. :(

I ordered Narcissus 2x and aurora pigment. These were my only must haves from this collection. I like the quad and the blushes, but they are not suited for me. The quad would give me that socked in the eye look, and the blushes would do nothing for me. I am definately more of a warm collection person.

Had to try Narcissus. Hopefully it won't look bad on me.

I know what you mean, somehow a tracking number makes things more real

^ That is *very* true.
Once you get a tracking number, you know that your items are on their way to you, and that you're not going to get one of those wretched backorder e-mails, or, worse yet, a "We're sorry, but we were unable to ..."
Since I didn't place my order until yesterday afternoon, I know very well that absolutely nothing will happen until at least Monday, and most likely later.
But I know my order's been placed, and that's reassuring, especially since, at the rate things are going, this collection may sell out before it technically comes out.
I'm reeeeeally eager to see Aurora, especially. It looks so pretty in the swatches; I'm hoping for a sort of pigment version of Style Snob.
Nebula looks like it may be similar in color to Keep Your Cool Pro Longwear, but that's okay, since I wear grey-browns a LOT, and there's never been a pigment this color before.
The closest thing, I guess, was Sweet Sienna, which was a disappointing greeny brown muddy mess on me. I ended up giving mine away.

Hahaha I gave in, too! We've been hit with backup-itis! I got another Narcissus, and backups of Comfort & Joy, Rich & Witty and Real Posh! I'm in trouble once Iris comes out! But at this point I'm only eyeing two of the lippies.

My overnighted package came today which included Hyperion nail polish. I'm in love! I'm not big on nail polish in general (this is my first MAC purchase, and I have maybe 3 other bottles from other brands), but the shade is just so unique! I tested the polish out on my thumbnail and in two coats, it was completely opaque. It was a little streaky for the first coat, but the second coat evened everything out and there are no bumps or blemishes!

Although I thought it was lovely, I wasn't even going to get Narcissus and now I'm thinking about getting back-ups

It really will be a great color for spring though, looks like I might not be picking up Circa Plum after all (maybe I can budget it in, we'll see ;)

Hmm, when I head to a MAC store monday, I may check out Borealis. I was looking up some youtube videos and one reviewer said it almost seemed like it had a bit of green in it. Seems interesting, and maybe it's a shade that's more easily described in person than it is through the interwebs lol. I might also snag some pigments..Aurora and Circa Plum keep haunting me.

For those interested, Daphne is now on the Nordstrom website! http://shop.nordstrom.com/c/mac/womens-makeup/daphne-guinness
