I am NC50 and I skipped this because it doesn't show at all.  I had it on my list but it would have been a waste of money.

I'm so paranoid about Hibiscus.

Toxic Tale looks absolutely HIDEOUS on me and gets a glare o' doom from me every time I see it in my makeup drawer. Viva Glam Cyndi, however, is my absolute favorite lipstick and the first I've worn to the nub...I need to see Hibiscus on an NC44ish person before I make a decision to grab one, two, or none. It's the only thing I want from this collection.

Should I just go for it?

That lip combo looks great on you! Now I'm contemplating Krazy Kahuna...
 
 
[/quote] Thanks. KK is one of those colors that I would've walked right by. I think it's ugly in the tube, but a swatch and on the lips, it's great. :bigthumb:

Aiight that knocked off my list !!!!!!!!!!!
 


 
[/quote] I guess Print was limited edition, then. :dunno: I just remember that I got it on my first pro visit. I was so excited that I pretty much snatched up everything that I had never seen at the regular stores/counters. I really like it. Check out mufe #33, though. It's great. Also, I read Nunu's comment wrong. I thought she was saying she loved SB, but not Print. My brain is fried. Yeah, I personally think Mac went off the deep end with those bronzing sticks.

Well I can almost relax now. I called my pro store and ordered most of my surf baby stuff over the phone. It has already been shipped UPS - signature required per my request. I don't want someone stealing my MAC! The only thing from my list that I wasn't able to get was the teal pigment stack. The pro store was completely sold out of this product almost immediately after opening this morning. I guess that I will have to stalk the website on Monday after all.

Thankfully I got hibiscus, surf usa, sun blonde, and my paradise. I also ordered the white liner on impulse after my MUA told me "Oh we only have two of these left. Do you want one?" And yes I fell for it and ordered one.

Oh Girl, Lipglass makes me cuss. Omg. I feel like I am going attract every piece of lint and annoying bug in the western hemisphere! So it's YOU who's been buying them so MAC keeps making 'em. Hmph!

Alright, I'll take your word for it. And dangit, now you have me wanting Krazy Kahuna...but (lack of) sparkliness aside, I wonder how it compares to Pret a Papier lg?
[/quote] Buzz is a coppery brown Pret-A-Papier is a dark reddish-copper Krazy Kahuna is a peachy brown(w/o shimmer obviously)

I just called my local MAC Pro just out of curiosity. . . & they are sold out of the Teal pig stack but she said they had only one left of the summer stash !!!! Wow !

Shontay, I'm glad you're loving Krazy Kahuna. It's a really unique color/texture combination - definitely in the top 5 most adventurous lip colors so far this year from MAC.

I'm gonna rock it too when I get it next week, and I'm NC15!

I think Shontay has sold me on Sun Blonde!

The raves for Surf USA are tempting me on that, too, but I don't know if I really need it -- I just bought the NARS trio a week and a half ago.

I'm going to try to use MAC's gel mixing medium with my purple stack from SCF this weekend to see if it will help with the fallout -- really my only complaint about that stack. If it works, I'd like to pick up the teal stack.

Does anyone know how silver the light green in the teal pigment stack is? The few reviews I've seen show that it's not green/teal at all. If it's really just silver, I'll pass. I have a tough time pulling off looks with a lot of silver for some reason.

I just bought Strange Potion at a counter two months ago, so I'm set on that.
