Has anyone gotten Subverted? It looks interesting but, I'm not sure I could pull it off with my NW15 skin? What do ya'll think?

Whaaat my order already shipped. Well done Mac!

Also here are my quick swatches from the metallics I already have.
Show-All, Pre-Raphaelite, Dominate. I URGE you all to get Pre-Raphaelite.

They look gorgeous swatched on you! I don't think I'd feel comfortable in any of them except for maybe Show-All.

I think if you're forced to only choose some shadows versus all I would have suggested going with the metallics. I finally got around to wearing Barefaced today and love it. It's such a great "nude" blush.
darn it! I skipped Metallic eyeshadows because I figured I'd get more use of the nude ones. However, thinking about It is making me realize that the metallics would have been a great addition to my stash :sigh: I'll see how long I could resist them for. & I'm so excited for barefaced!! I've had my eye on it Ever since this launched for pros! Btw, did you purchase body conscious e/s? I'm back and forth on that one and it seems to not be getting a lot of love.

I don't love it, a little too warm and brassy for me. I think it would look gorgeous on NC skin, in the darker range.
I'm hoping it's really red and metallic on me. Like Christmas wrapping paper lol I bought the lipstick thinking of the holidays! :blush:

Yes I purchased all of the shadows about a month ago in a phone order and backed them all up when the collection went love online. I love them all but it's not my number 1 of the Nudes. There are no duds in the shadows in my opinion.

I thought holidays when I swatched it...all Fall feeling. Well...some are a little reminiscent of the 90's - 90210, Party of Five...that whole look lol. I actually love that though.

Well, I just broke my Do Not Order Makeup You Have Not Tried In Person rule for this collection. I tried texting my MA to see if perhaps they were going to get this collection in store, since they've often gotten the rare collections, since they're one of the top volume stores, but he didn't get back to me instantaneously, so I broke all my rules and ordered all the metallic shadows and lippies!

I do love some of those nudes too, but nudes I KNOW I cannot buy before I try so I resisted all of that madness.

I've mostly stayed out of this thread because I figured I wouldn't be indulging in this collection, period. All I can say is LOLOLOLOL.

I DO love MAC's current frost formula and even without hanging around in this thread, my MA never stops raving about the products in this collection - it's his favorite collection of the year, so I got a triple whammy!

I'm really confused because i placed two orders and the one i placed later in the day shipped and the one before that is still pending.

The second order should be here tomorrow. It has the two blushes.

The first order thats pending has my shadows and naked deep dark pigment and i really wanted those for the weekend! Whats going on mac????
