Turns out my blushes won't arrive until Tuesday :(
My counter still had all 6 left at 10% off and I was very tempted to buy them again and then return my previous order! I couldn't though, just the thought of all that makeup being thrown away made me sad

Looking at your pictures, I would have sworn that FoJ would be your first choice of all six blushes. :)
Oh Mac Guy, my wallet hates you :p I have now joined Team 6! (when any of them actually arrive) And I ordered Harmony to try too. I got my mac order for F&B foundation too as I've seen a lot of raves for it - I'm trying to decided on wedding foundation so far mufe mat velvet is my fave, mufe hd broke me out, but I'm road testing a few. I got a palette to depot too, but I don't know if I'm brave enough! Does anyone have any YouTube videos for depotting :) If you have any ED shadows recs guys, do let me know. And my Selfridges parcel didn't turn up. I hate bank holiday weekends!

I'm almost certain that FoJ will show up more pink-ish on your complexion, so you definitely will wear it, especially with your new (old) hair color. The texture is also much nicer than Sakura, so you've got nothing to worry about.

Re wedding foundation: Have you tried MAC Sculpt? It's a great alternative to F&B as it is more long-wearing, while you still get the dewy effect similar to F&B.

I hope so, I don't want it to make me look corpse like! I shall have to post a FOTD when it finally arrives. I hadn't even considered Sculpt foundation, I thought it contained SPF for some reason and I was trying to avoid it for fear of flash back in photos?

I haven't received any of my blush orders yet, so I'll hold off for now. I am just waiting patiently for my Selfridges order to arrive


LOL! Sorry, MrsB. But I agree with Mac-Guy. I thought Full of Joy would look amazing on your complexion.

It photographs beautifully.
Something else to add to the list of must try items!

It's so annoying isn't it?! Making us wait all these extra days for the sake of a bank holiday weekend. I prefer just to have my goodies when they are supposed to arrive! I was looking at getting pink venus, sweet heat, and modern pewter but I'm not sure lol - I'm trying to be good with MAC and only buy what I will actually USE as in the past I have had to many items go unloved because I panic bought tones/shades that weren't really for me.
