Tropica &Bossa Blue (I don't like how BB looks swatched. It was kind of hard to work with, but I did this with my fingers so hopefully a brush and Fix+ helps.)

Sooo, as many have stated, pictures will hardly do the items justice, but I went ahead and tried to swatch some things. Picture overload will commence in 5...4..3..2...1! Adored in direct sunlight outside Inside Swatched outside  (From L-R: Blended together, Coral shade, Beige shade)   Rio in direct sunlight Indoor  Swatched outside - (From L-R: Blended Together, Bronze, Pink although mine didn't have much of pink. Boooo!) Lust in direct sunlight Indoors Swatched outside (From L-R: Blended together, Cranberry shade, Dusty Pink shade) From L-R: Rio, Lust, Adored
Everything looks amazing on your skin. I can't wait to see them in person. I'm set on heroine and ablaze l/l that I missed last time maybe fever isle, and one of the MSF.

Wow KrystalAnne, Simmer looks aammazzing in your pics. Anyone know how it compares to ripe for love from temperature rising? That's my new all time favorite so if looks like that like it kind of does in the above picture I'm sold!

I have & love the 131 brush but its only used for Elude - nothing else is allowed to touch it ;) How does the 159 differ - they look similar

I just talked to a MAC MUA, and the only MSFs from this collection he recommended for darker skin tones (NC50+) were Gold Deposit (highlighter), and Rio for a nice contour color. What do you ladies think about that?

Saw it swatched on darker skin and that is totally a pinky highlight!

The MUA at Nordstrom that I called today told me for my fair to light neutral undertone Rio would be like a bronzer esp if it had more brown than pink swirls

Guess I have to go to the store tomorrow to get simmer since it's still messed up on the MAC site and sold out on Nordies or they took it down or smthng. Oh well. Guess it'll be nice to see the whole collection.
Nordstrom's site still shows simmer and EE in the drop down tab on the blush page, but the icon/pic for simmer is of SS.
