I feel like this might be a skip for me. I need to use my MES as it is, and these would just have to sit with them (in a box, non palette).
More money for HS!

I think that if I even DARE to swatch these I might want them all, so it might be best for me to not go near these :)

I hear ya!
There just aren't enough days and eyeballs for the collection I have.
I ALSO am planning on some sephora goodies coming up (tarte blushes!) so yeah.

It's too bad that Mac release like 2-3 collections a month.

Last night I went to the MAC store and swatched a bunch of things and placed an order for one MSF, 4 MES and a bunch of the new blushes. This morning I went through my ginormous MU collection and called back and cancelled it all. I just can't justify constantly buying from collections just because they are limited edition when I have so much to get through and really want to taper my collection down to about 1/3rd the size it is. The eye shadows are gorgeous, very pigmented, very metallic looking. What a sheen. I do wonder about fall out. Same with the MSF in Superb. Gorgeous, but not as finely milled as my Guerlain, so no problem with cancelling them. I doubt I will wear them much. Then came the blushes from the Tres Cheek collection. Pretty, not as satin looking as I expected, some very pale and washed out even against my pale skin. I ended up hauling from Chanel and B&BW's, Zoya and have some goodies I want with the Sephora VIB event coming up! Enjoy the collection, ladies!

I know the formula is so supposed to be fantastic, but I feel as if I already have similar e/s shades. Especially from the Naturally collection.

I felt tempted by the amazonion clay blushes but.... I kept saying "stay faithful to MAC, with a once in a month romance with NARS"

It's better to pay for shipping than ebay prices. :)

I agree and ebay have alot of fakes. It's safer to buy from MAC directly.

Aaaaand what about Grand Galaxy compared to Noir plum from Peacoky?? (Seriously, I don't need dupes nor things that have "a different sheen" XD)

You can pull any of the three off. Look at my pics and look at the buffed out pic. They can be sheered out very well!

Ok.. I'd take Blue Orbit, Grand Galaxy, Rich core, Whisper of gilt and Glorify!!! It's a lot since I planned to only take two things -_______- I'm still thinking about noir plum and grand galaxy though ...

EDIT: I'm looking now at the comparison between GG and NP!!
