Currently the only things on my list are hibiscus and my paradise, if it is actually an orangy blush. Some of the swatches look amazingly coral that pulls more orange and some are very pink looking, and in that case, I'm not interested. I'm worried b/c I'll be flying out of town the day it releases to go on a trip with my inlaws, I'm not sure how eager they'll be to make a quick stop at the local mall so I can get my fix. LOL.

Bust Out keeps going on and off my list...I need to see more swatches of that one to make a final decision =\
Maybe I should just get 2 Hibiscus lippies instead

I just posted this on the swatch thread, but I'll add it here too. All those shadows are so very pigmented. Good job Mac, now keep up with it, no more crappy shadows please! :)

I found the closest thing to Surf USA that I have is Newly Minted. It's that green! I added Sassy Grass so you can see it's not all the way green, just very green teal. It makes other teals look so blue.

I had no dupes for Sun Blonde, so for me that turned out to be unique find.



All swatches are on bare skin, natural light, no flash.

Here is Surf USA with some other colours. From left to right Parrot, Shimmermoss, Surf USA, Newly Minted, Aquadisiac. Top: Sassy Grass. Bottom: Minted eye kohl.



L-R: Partylicious p/g, Surf USA, Teal p/g



Here's Sun Blonde. L-R: Crest The Wave, Gorgeous Gold, Sun Blonde, Chrome Yellow, Bright Future (style warriors), Saffron. Top: Going Bananas. Bottom: Paparazz-she mega metal.




Here's Swell Baby. L-R: Soot (pro), Print, Swell Baby, Silver Ring, Scene. Top: Smoke&Diamonds. Bottom: Copperplate.




Here's Krazy Kahuna. L-R: Krazy Kahuna, Temper Tantra, Yash, Shitaki.



Krazy Kahuna on lips:



Here's Good Lovin'. L-R: Good Lovin', Slicked Pink lip gelee, New Spirit, Live and Dye, Nize Buzz plush glass.




Good Lovin' on lips:



I'll post pictures of the nail polishes soon, as well as Hibiscus on lips. I lost all the light while photographing these, so I guess they will be better taken later. :)

Again I forgot to add this to my previous post. So here you go, Hibiscus with similar shades:

L-R: Good To Go, Hibiscus, Toxic Tale, Viva Glam Cyndi l/g, Chanel Audace



So Hibiscus is a bit more red than TT, not as orange as GTG, and brighter and redder than Cyndi lipglass. Chanel Audace is a bit deeper red.

I'm surprised how green Surf USA looks compared with the official product photos. Sun Blonde looks very yellow in the 'closed pot' official photos, but the open pot, viewed from an angle photos seem to more closely match reality and the description

Pinkbasset, you just added two eyeshadows to my list: Sun Blonde and Surf USA :) Surf USA looks quite different compared to the other teals and Sun Blonde seems to be this special weird colour like you said, love it :)

I love the swatches, I cant wait for surf baby!!

Dang . . . . Hibiscus looks so similar to Toxic Tale in that swatch! I might just order one online and then wait to possibly pick up another one in-store if it is truly different from Toxic Tale.

Your list is pretty much the same as mine except that I won't be getting the nail polish, and I'll most likely be skipping Short Shorts. (Plus I'm interested in some of the lipglasses.)
