Well, I've got Treasure Hunt at last... and yes it's a favourite!!! I love all the paint pots I have bought from Posh Paradise but this one is better 'coz I can use it alone, apply it with my fingers and use it during the day (I don't like to use dark colors in daylight).. In my collection it's the best with Rubenesque and probably Morning frost! ... Still looking for Let's skate!

I second berryjuicy's recommendation on the water based mixing medium. It is my go-to over fix+ for MES and pigments. And a bottle lasts forever! Worth the purchase! Let us know if it works for you. Too Faced Glitter Glue is good too though... I got that to try and it works great. For both pigments and MES. I just go for my water based mixing medium more often because I'm more familiar with it.

I really want to mixing medium, is it pro only? I'm going stalk the clearance bin see if ohanyoneMmmm is selling it
I love paint pots! I think its a great way to add a little something extra to shadows you already have. I think the pp in this collection are some of the best mac have brought out. At first I wasn't sure but now that I have got used to them I love them. I can't believe how long they last on the lid without creasing...particularly since they have shimmer in them...normally the more opaque pp like painterly last all day on me without creasing but the more sheer and/or shimmery ones like bare study require a primer underneath to stop creasing but not these new ones...I have worn both morning front and lets skate as a wash of colour on their own and they lasted all day - so impressed. My fav paint pots this year - lets skate and half wild!
In relation to mes and mixing medium...do you find that the mixing medium leaves a residue on the top of the mes or creates a different texture in the pan? I use fix+ and just leave the shadow opened to dry afterwards so that it is fine but I am curious about the mixing medium.......

I used For Effect as a base today with Winterized in the outer corner and Her Alter Image (Disney Collection) as a wash over the inside corner to the middle of the eyelid up to the brows. I'm wearing mostly all black today, figured I need to add some color somewhere

I am very sad to report that I had to return Let's Skate today as I could not handle all the glitter migration going on. It is probably just because of the way that my eyes and eyelids are shaped but I could NOT keep the glitter on the lid! It keeps ending up on my browbone and all around below my eyes, and the last place I want people to be looking is below my eyes (that is the not so pretty area). It really is a shame because it is SO RIDICULOUSLY PRETTY with its opalescent pink sparkles..... I am sad, but at least now I have Fresh Ice and Snow Season to cheer me up! (I meant to get For Effect as an exchange but then I realized that it was the same texture as LS and I would probably have the same problem, and considering it has darker glitter particles that would be even worse!)
I cannot get enough of Winterized though! I think it is the greatest color and texture of all my MESs....Hell, of ALL my eye shadows! I think I could actually use this every day and not get bored, just keep pairing it with different lid and inner eye colors, different liners, and different lower lash line "pops". Right now I am all over Cheers my Dear pigment (or Mancatcher) on the inner 1/3, Winterized as outer V and lid color, Clone as a liner, and Light as Air powerpoint & Winkle as the lower lashline colors.....and it is SO PRETTY. I never wear the same makeup 3 days in a row, but I can't not keep doing this knowing how awesome it looks!
Hope you are all enjoying your goodies as much as I am!

I think they all do! I know Kensington, and the store in the Shepherds bush Westfield mall def have them, but unless other stores have sold out I think they should all have them. The only thing they didn't get was Winterized.

thanks a lot!! I also have found a better solution (because my friend doesn't know Mac)... I could buy it on the UK site and ship to her! (because mac uk doesn't ships to Italy)... I guess it should work!!

This collection needs to just go away. I can't stop buying things from it. I've spent $500 easily on just THIS collection.
In other news.. I picked up a Dazzelglass last night since I had to grab a another 15 palette. The store I went to had all of the paint pots.. actually everything but the purple np and one dazzleglass.. oh and whirls and twirls.
