Thank you, Starlight! I'm so excited for Ocean City, but seeing your swatches of Sunset Beach is giving me skipper's remorse. I just can't. Too much money. I also just purchased this blush trio from Sephora and they are gorgeous! It has an Orchid shade in it. Not as purpley as I would like, but it's very pretty & looks a little like the Sunset Beach swatches.

As do I, but if not, it's okay. I only ordered 2 Ocean City's (in 2 separate orders) because I forgot to change the billing info when checking out using Paypal for the first one; I thought the order was going to be cancelled as they did for another member here yesterday. When I called into MAC, they said they couldn't fix any mistakes until it was cancelled, so instead of holding my breath, I ordered another OC. Surpising, they all went through okay (aside from the packing mess up).

^ THIS. If they send me the wrong one, I will be too through!!!Must've been a crazy day at MAC because they sent me 2 Sunset Beach's and 1 Ocean City rather than the other way around, lol. The rep said they might have some back stock for when mistakes like these happenbut I'm not betting on it, lol. I just don't want to have to pay return shipping fees when it was their mistake. I was hoping he'd send me a pre-paid label or something, lol. We'll see.

After losing sleep and F5-ing all night into morning I was sooooo glad to order Ocean City. I had been checking eBay and MAC Spain, France, Poland, Israel, etc like a mad person hoping to get it somehow. When I saw it still up on MAC after a half an hour I felt such a pull to order another one... it's crazy. I have never hit pan on a blush in my life.

It's very orangey bright, isn't it? If you like Modern Mandarin, you will adore OC.

Beautiful!! Can anyone tell me if the pink blush would work on a golden caramel brown complexion?

it is very bright (a good bright not a neon bright). i think tangerine when i look at it. I love love love it. I do not own MM but i think if i remember correctly that is a little more muted. like a more powdery look to it. this does not look powdery at all. i wish i had good lighting and a good camera. i'm so happy and put it on RIGHT AWAY!! lol
only problem is now i want to go buy lipsticks to go with it LOL i have flamingo and betty bright so they will get much more use now.

I guess so, it seems they always make mistakes on my orders during collections. They are sending me a prepaid label to send the blush back & are replacing it. I may just end up keeping both, even tho I don't wanna spend the extra money. They should start giving discounts.

the closest i have in comparison to sunset beach is Clinique berry pop but SB is a more vibrant pretty pink shade. another words it's ok to have both so not that close. this was my first venture into the orange or brights world so i have no comparisons.

MAC screwed up my order and sent out the sunset beach instead of ocean city. Now I'll have to try to get it Thursday
