Received Send Me Sailing today. Immediately compared it to Nitrolicious! SMS is lighter, sheerer, not as sticky/tacky and not so in your face as Nitro. Don't need both at all.
Richelle, how does SMS compare to Doubledare? I think you have that one as well.

My Nordstrom started with the Hey Sailor stuff like others said--yay! I was able to sneak off and pick up my pre-sale items. So far (since I am still at work) I've only tried Send Me Sailing and I LOVE it...I am glad I got it instead of Red Racer because one reason I think it works for me is that the relative sheerness (vs. a lipstick) tones it down enough that I feel it's "wearable". I can't wait to try Crew and Jaunty tomorrow!

I swatched a bronzer quickly (Soft Sand maybe?) and it didn't seem too orange or crazy dark on me so that's good...but I want to go back with this $20 Nordstrom cash back I am supposed to be getting in the mail soon if I am going to get a bronzer. The SAs were barely paying attention to me as it was, and I was in a rush so I didn't bother to ask for them to apply it...I did smudge some on my face with my finger and it doesn't look horrible so that is promising lol.

Seriously though I am annoyed at the SAs at the MAC counter...when I did the pre-sale they won back points but they lost them all (and more) again today. It was not THAT busy and there were even several people from "upstairs" but nobody even looked or spoke to me while I stood waiting at the register. Then finally somebody noticed the woman AFTER ME who had to tell them I was there. It was horrible, I felt so invisible/insignificant.

I completely spaced and forgot to order Jaunty! It's sold out on the Nordies website already, so I'm going to head over and pick up pre-sale. Hopefully I can buy it in store!

Sun dipped would look good on nc 20 skin, my best friend is an nc 20 and it looks lovely on her. I think sun dipped is a universal bronzer since i'm cooler tone ,and it also suits my skin complexion, I usually don't buy MAC face products unless I really love them. I'm more of a lipstick junkie.

Whooo... it's been a long while since a MAC collection has gotten my attention, but I am eyeing a few things from this collection... not sure if they are similar to anything I have (I haven't read this entire thread, so please forgive me if this has been asked/answered before)... I am NW15.

If I have Wondergrass, Sassy Grass, Swimming, and an entire 15 palette of MAC greens. do I need Feeling Fresh? (I am a green lover!)

Is Launch Away anything like The Perfect Cheek blush? It is one of my HG blushes.

What does everything think about Emerald Sea e/l? I prefer darker liners, but this one is calling me, especially paired with Feeling Fresh. Is it really unique?

i finally got my stuff. Crew, To Catch A Sailor, and the 167sh brush.

Crew- Omg Love this stuff. I'm nc44/45 and this thing is awesome. I swirled it around with my 109 brush and applied it above my cheekbones. Very nice glow.

To Catch A sailor - meh, not a big fan of it on myself. It looks like pewter type color on me. I wish it looked on me how it looked on pinkdollface but of course our skintones and lip colors are different. I'm keeping it just because I collect Mac special packaging lipsticks.

167sh - a bit stiffer than i thought it would be but its still is good. Haven't tried it with my msf natural but I can already tell ill like it better my 182 brush.

I am so excited to see you again.
I thought of you immediately when I saw Feeling Fresh. Not sure if it would be terribly unique in your green collection since it is so extensive but I do feel that you would regret passing on the Emerald Sea e/l. Definitely get that.
I am NW15 and love Launch away. I don't have the Perfect Cheek so I can't compare it though. Don't let the color in the pan scare you. It looks so pale in the pan but it is a beautiful glow on the skin.

Thanks! I usually don't buy their face products either, but am in the market for a new bronzer! So, looks like I may give it a try.

Totally ignoring you about crew...

I just saw the whole collex. I actually liked Salute, the bronzers seemed a bit too light/ashy on me. I didn't try refined golden though. I really wanted sun dip to warm up my face.

Today I got two of my packages and JAUNTY WAS IN THE PACKAGE WITH CREW HIGHLIGHTER!!!!!! Since my order of Jaunty e/s from Nordies shipped, I will sell it for those who have missed out on it once it arrives.
