I know, what a terrible mess! Good to hear that your SB arrived with no problem! I live in Vancouver too and my Ocean City is scheduled to arrive tomorrow. I spoke with a Canadian Mac rep on the phone today and she said that there had been no calls or complaints about a blush mix up in Canada yet. Fingers crossed!My package with sunset beach arrived at like 3:30 pm but my ocean city shipped and is expected tomorrow. I really hope there's no problems with the Canadian orders because I'll just die if I end up with 2 sunset beaches! I feel so sorry that so many people got the wrong blushes

Thank you! Pink Plaid is the one I have that looks the most similar. But it's matte and PF is Satin. Hmmmm

I just checked the Canadian site and they're both back in stock!? Hopefully they means they have enough to fix everyone's messed up orders.

You're making me want Woodrose and I don't wear nudesOcean City, Sunset BeachTop & Bottom Shades In Each
Woodrose & Mangrove
My skin has some blemishes right now, but oh well! Here's Woodrose. I really like it! Also, I have on Ocean City in these photos.
Mangrove - The camera makes it really neon looking!
ETA: So, I am absolutely in LOVE with Ocean City. It's PERFECT! I find it to be more pigmented than Sunset Beach. I haven't tried Sunset Beach on yet, but it is pretty. Not SUPER pigmented at first swipe, but it's buildable (did I spell that right? I think I'm having a brain fart after a long day) The color is pretty and I imagine I will love it on!

I'm happy to hear we seem to be okay in Canada (though I feel like a dick for saying that while everyone struggles to resolve their issues
) Am I the worst for saying I'm kind of on the fence about sunset beach? I really love the light pink part & mine seems to have a bigger light pink part than some of the others I've seen pictured... But I'm just not wowed? I wanted to be blown away! I plan on keeping it becUse I think it's very versatile & I love the packaging but it's kinda meh compared to how amazing I thought it was going to be lol I'm super excited about ocean city & even if it looks awful on me it'll be good to have because I don't have anything like it

Hmm, I may have spoken too soon.
I think, at least in my case, this could be a case of trying it on your face to really get a feel of the color.
On a bare, albeit oily face, Ocean City showed up fine and was a really pretty warm coral. Had no issues mixing the entire ombre up, although I was excited about using it in an ombre'd layered fashion. Will try that on another day. But I was pleasantly surpised by OC and it looks pretty (on my NC50 skintone). Is it dupable? Perhaps, but I don't have a lot of red corals so this is quite nice to me.
I'll try SB on another day, but as I stated with both, pigment doesn't seem to be an issue.

Oh wow! Kinda good for me seeing as how I don't have Ripe Peach and have wanted it forever!
Crazy, my eyes see NO difference. Any owners of both can affirm that they really are the same?

Oh I totally believe you lol! I'm on my iPadI'm not saying you don't believe me, but there they are. So weird! Just like on launch day, one of my phones said sold out so I had to order from my other phone.

I think the old packaging is really nice to have sitting on my counter lol it's super pretty to be able to see it but for functionality this compact is better for me. Dare I say it might be a little messier though? (This is the first one I've actually owned though but I used my friends and hers didn't seem as messy) When I opened the box I thought it was going to be broken but it wasn't it just kind of creates its own fallout (without being touched) and escapes the compact because it's so delicate. Lightscapade probably doesn't have that problem though?

Darn mac I just opened my black box and got sunset beach instead of ocean city. I ordered ocean city. What in the world.
