Wearing Bougainvillea nail lacquer. I am in love with this color. First time wearing it out! :) ( Excuse the hand angle. My hands are smaller than this lol)
Mangrove is stunning on you! That's the only thing that I have a little skippers remorse over.

I'm happy to report it is not smashed, dented, or any way damaged in the bullet either!
So beautiful!

I know this feeling. I keep telling myself that PF is so similar to Pink Plaid that I don't need it.

For the wrong blush, I ask for refund since I have bought from mall..
hopefully those will become available to the others since after including to fees, shipping, tax (I paid 9.5% tax), that is going to be $ 38 , more than retail( assuming I am to get the replacement if they still have them and sell). Is there anyone want me to check about the replacement?

I don't think they're doing them in order either. I ordered mines on the 24th.
I don't think so either.I ordered my blush on the 23rd at about 11 something est and my order was canceled. BUT on a good note, my replacement oc was delivered today and i LOVE it. Sunset beach is lovely also.I'm glad i have it.

PF is definitely more vintage warm pink than SE. They are different

I would take pics/swatches if it wasn't dark here

First off, PF is much closer to Be Fabulous Mineralize lipstick than to SE. BF has a little less white in it, so isn't quite as bright or light, but the amount of warmth is similar. SE is substantially warmer. The thing is, the texture on PF I found really lacking - it's sort of crumbly and too sheer, just behaved weirdly for a Satin. The textures on SE AND BF are so much better. If you want a soft colored lipstick from this collection, Woodrose is so much better, it isn't even funny.

SE is super cute and rather unique, while PF is quite dupable with BF and also with Raspberry Swirl if you have that one, or even the light pink retromatte from last year, Going Steady. No brainer choice, as far as I'm concerned.

I think Pinkfringe shouldve been called Pink Flamingo. Mine was a bit patchy initially but warmed up well and smoothed out. After i used the tube a few times no more patchiness. The finish with subtle pearl makes it stand out for me from RS & SG.

I didn't get a shipping email for my replacement blush, but I got a notification from UPS My Choice that it will be delivered tomorrow. Yay for finally getting OC!

Glad to hear it got better. When I tested it, it was a brand new tester, so I had the first try on it right out of the box, so I knew it hadn't gotten weird from being sanitized. Did it get more of a normal satin finish too?

Here you go babe! ;) PF on the left SE on the right. my face is about NW30 right now but I imagine my hand is something different lol I agree with Liba that the texture of PF is lacking! I still LOVE the packaging though!

Wow mines is coming today its crazy that boxes are just showing up mac sent me a email saying it was on the way but never sent tracking info I only knew because ups sent me a email saying I have a package on the way
 
beautiful! i'm thinking about getting the OC blush now.

btw to my UK lasses, both blushes appear to be 'In Stock' on Selfridges.com. but when i add OC it gives me an 'Error adding to basket' message, and with SB it says, 'Unfortunately we do not have that many in stock. Please choose a smaller quantity and try again.' wtf?? if it's already out of stock then stop giving us false hope by saying it IS in stock, dagnabbit...

I asked about this collection during a live chat with MAC customer service. I was told that this collection was a Selfridges exclusive and she couldn't give me any info about when or if it would be released by MAC. Judging by the releases in other countries, I think this will be released by MAC online. It's just a matter of stalking the website.
