Aradhana, did you find SC powdery? I swatched it in-store with a brush and it kicked up a surprising amount of powder.

well, it is a lot softer than any of the other mac blushes i own. it's more like a nars blush in that respect. i didn't find i had fall-out on my cheeks or anything however....Aradhana, did you find SC powdery? I swatched it in-store with a brush and it kicked up a surprising amount of powder.
i suspect i'll go through the product more quickly of course (assuming i use the same blush regularly

My Eden Rouge shipped today. Yay, I hope it arrives soon. I haven't hauled much from this collection but I love everything I have gotten. So far I have HT, LW, CC, and will have ER soon.

Who's been enjoying Delectable?
Last year's version was too dry and chalky looking for me and I didn't get it. But this year, it's much creamier and maybe even a little less pale? It looks like a really sexy peachy nude with a brownish cast - not too light, either (it feels like last year's was whiter and lighter??). It even leaves a really beautiful smooth nude stain when it starts fading or if you blot, that sort of looks as if Salute! and Cusp of Dawn had a matte baby. I took some photos, but I had to use flash and I couldn't capture the color properly.
I guess you can say this is one example where the next year's batch is better than the original!

I thought the texture was too chalky and flat looking, like most of last year's light mattenes. It was a nice shade, but also pretty dupeable. Double Spin is pretty similar, just a little pinker, but FF isn't as grey bone nude as Restrict.

Thank you liba!
I have Double Spin and really like it...a "mattene version" would be nice.But a "chalky look" is not nice at all!!!

If you can see it in person first, maybe the texture will work for you - it almost did for me, but not quite, especially since Delectable was plenty awesome and less like things I already had. FF didn't make my lips look bad, but that texture made my skin look tired. I think it'd work better with younger skin.

Unfortunatly I can not check it out in person first.
I have Delectable from PP collection and it works for me.Maybe FF would work as well then...
But I do also have Naked Bliss and I am not sure if FF is different enough to justify both.However FF looks more pink in the swatches and that is why I am still tempted to get it.

I went to my counter this morning and brought home four items from this collection so far. I have used three of them in a look I just did. The one I didn't use yet was Hidden Treasure, but I'm sure I'll love it since I love my pro blushes so much.
The other blush I got was Supercontinental and I love it! It shows up so easily, because of how pigmented it is. It has a very pretty sheen to it and it's like Hipness, but with more orange tones. I think that makes it perfect for this fall with the orange trend going on. It also works very nice with the eyelook I did. I used the On The Hunt duo, Star Myth on the lid and Raving Mad in the crease. That's all I did for shadow. I was afraid that this duo would make my eyes look irritated, but it doesn't at all! I'm so glad I got this, because the colours are perfect again for fall. I finished the look with the Local Wares fluidline that I got as well and mascara. I love Local Wares too! I can see the olive in it, but that might be because of the red tones in the shadows. The shadows and fluidline make me think of the leaves in the fall, so pretty!
I was thinking about the Marché Aux Puces duo as well, but On The Hunt seemed a lot more unique in my collection. Indie Spirit was just a matte brown to me and Chessa was pretty, but it reminded me of Style Predator from the Leopard Luxe quad. I think I like the Leopard Luxe quad better than this.
I'm still considering Fashion Nomad. It is not as bright as Morange, so it might work for me, but it was hard to decide about it in the store lightning. Camden Chic and Eden Rouge are too similar to things I have. I also like Restless and Eclectic Edge lipglasses. Eclectic Edge is not as bright as Riviera Life. I can't stop thinking about that one...

I bought Camden Chic and Restless. I have been planning on one more lippie haul from this collection. What mattenes and glosses is everyone loving from this collection? Delectable and Eclectic Edge are the two that are haunting me as of late. Ready to Roam and Eden Rouge look nice, too (so many reds though! But, not matte reds.)! Fashion Nomad seemed a little too orange for me when I swatched it, and Fun Finds seemed chalky, greyish. FF is off my list for sure, but I would like to swatch FN again just to be sure.

I stopped by my local Nordies last night to see what was left of this collex.
Practically everything was gone.
All of the lip pies, e/s, blush. The thing I dislike about Nordies is they keep all of the testers on the display so you get your hopes up high when you see things and then everything is gone.
I was too tired to crawl up to the MAC store.
I'm happy with the few items I picked up though.

(There's something wrong with my 'connection', I don't have any buttons, etc. Nothing!) I got only the MAP duo because I also thought that OTH would be too reddish on me. I don't have LL though. Everybody seems to talk about it. I have the Burmese Beauty Quad and I love it!
