I finally got all four EDSF's. Two came loose in the compact. They aren't broken for anything but I can take them completely out of the packaging. Here is a heavy swatch of each one:

L to R: Beaming Blush, Show Gold, Double Gleam, Soft Frost

Lighter swatches:

T to B: Beaming Blush, Show Gold, Double Gleam, Soft Frost

Soft frost is the least glittery one. Double gleam seems like it would have the ability to look chalky if you put it on too heavy. I'd say Soft frost is the most unique but Beaming Blush and Show Gold are stunning. As someone else mentioned BB and SG should have had their names switched. BB is gold and SG is pink.

I was able to grab Beaming Blush EDSF and Goldmine Strobe cream when I was in Las Vegas at the Pro Store. I'm glad that the product is not limited edition. I was about to purchase Soft Frost and decided at the last minute to get the Beaming Blush. I think I will most likely grab Soft Frost at a future date.

I finally caved and ordered Show Gold! And one of the Liptensity lipsticks, Smoked Almond. I can't wait to see how Show Gold compares to TheBalm's Cindy-Lou Manizer though...

I've slowly been trying out the products from this collection on my face and ya'll the strobe cream, Peachlite is everything. I wear it alone for work under my foundation however I only place it on my cheekbones and it gives a gorgeous, healthy glow from within radiance. If you're medium complexion, you'll LOVE peachlite!

I bought all four of the extra dimension skinfinishes (I collect mac extra dimension skinfinishes, they give very nice sheen, much better than msfs and other highlighters that i used)

this is me wearing soft frost extra dimension skinfinish on the cheekbone. No filter, no beauty cam mode.

at first i thought it might be a bit too whitish pink, but turns out the sheen is subtle and just nice

So mine (DG, BB) arrived on Saturday and I haven't had the chance to play with them yet but the compacts are soooo scratched up. First time this happened. Maybe I'm weird but I'm always very careful with my make up because I don't like scratches and stains etc. so this really bothers me. Even things that have been in my stash for years are better looking :/ Also, the powders have a really strong weird smell, I immediately noticed it when I opened the compacts. And suprisingly they came without plastic inserts, is this new? All my older edsf have the inserts. They do look absolutely gorgeous though and I can't wait to use them. And these are my first edsf with the new embossing (apart from the nutcracker one) so it's fun to see how they've changed over time.

Yeah, mine came w/o inserts as well but again I've never received an EDSF with an insert.

I picked up Goldlite, Peachlite, Redlite, Show Gold, Beaming Blush and Soft Frost. I have yet to use Redlite and Soft Frost. I have been using Peachlite and Show Gold quite a bit. I'm tempted to get Double Gleam to round out my collection.

Great! Tell me what blush you wear it with. I was just thinking I need to wear this . It is the only one I haven't used yet.

Hi!
I was thinking just mascara and clear lip balm and a sort of dewey look because I don't really use blush anymore
But I will play around with what I have this weekend
