Thank you so,so very much for the swatches!

Bust Out! looks suuuuuper pretty!

Here are my swatches!

Both polishes are a bit greener - my camera never picks up the green in turquiose - and the red lippies are a bit brighter in real life.

It was really funny at my store today - they hadn't have a display out yet, and all products were in a white box through which I rummaged! At first, I didn't see it (of course), asked a MA for 'Surf Baby', and she looked at me as if I talked to her in Japanese...

I didn't get My Paradise after all. The colour is a lovely orange, but for me the overspray is just too glittery and at the end of the day it's just overspray, albeit a very pretty one. I didn't have a closer look at the other products, I was running out of time of my lunch break! *g*



Cyndi, Hibiscus, Made with Love (bottom to top)




Courting Lilac, Playtime, Bust out, Flaunting it, Radicchio (left to right)




Top: For Audrey (CG), Bottom: Ocean Dip

My list was only 1 item damnit! Now it might be 3, and I'll prob try at least two of the flighty shadows...so much for my no-buy until July lol I have lots of teals...
Is Surf USA different enough? In some of the swatches it looks like it leans pretty green. Still not sure bout Hibiscus, its not a color I'd wear often. Thank goddness Bust out is more berry.

I think I'm going to get all of them just because I use even my least used regular MAC eyeshadows more than I use my mineral ones. I've used Young Punk once, and I've never even touched my Blue Flame.

hmm.. im nt getting the mes from Semi Precious though cos i know i wont use them.. i want to get MSFs and MBs. Haha.. This is becoming so problematic..i also dont like that it is more expensive because of the packaging. im thinking of getting some items from the permanent line instead..

[/quote] Aww thanks for the support EO :) I might have to have a think and see as I think hibiscus may sell out fairly quickly, hmmmm ;)

Ooo... I'd like to know this to as I have this one. I'd also like to know how it compares to Smoke & Diamonds as that's one of my most used shades, and it's almost gone!

I don't own Bough Grey but I own Smoke & Diamonds and Swell Baby and could swatch them for you. I've already swatched all of my grey e/s in comparison to Swell Baby except Copperplate and Smoke&Diamonds since they didn't look like they could be similar just from looking at the pans.

I'm sure it would make you feel a lot better :)

I already have a couple of permanent items sitting in my basket, and I must try not to cave and order My Paradise - it looks so pretty, but I'm almost certain it would be too orange for me.

[/quote] Swell baby keeps making it's way to may list then keeps leaving, Lol! In some swatches I love it and in others not so much....I so wish I had a store near by so I could see for myself before ordering!
