3swipes each!
My thanks to everyone. I think i can skip PF. Thanks for saving me some money... that i'll probably spend on something else. Sigh.

I did get Woodrose and - what is the matter with me !?! - it looked like such a cool (as opposed to warm) color in all the swatches and in the tube, and on me it leans a little warm. I'll have to see what i can put under it to keep it light and cool.

I just received my replacement OC and it is so beautiful!

I swatched it with my finger and it had the same issue as my SB (no pigmentation), but it applied just fine with a brush. I am so happy to have it and it is a much better color for my skin tone than SB. Although I think both are really pretty, I have to be honest and say there is absolutely nothing unique about them besides that fact that they are ombre.

Here is a quick pic and swatches that I did for my sister, so don't mind my hair in the mirror lol. SB looks a little funny because I swirled my brush in it. For reference, I am a little lighter than NC25 right now and the inside of my arm is probably closer to NC20.

Mac has released this collection online in other European countries so it doesn't make sense for them not to release this online in the UK. My closest Selfridges store is in London, which is a 90 minute and £20 train ride away. Time and money wise, it's not worth it for me to trek to London just to pick up a blush.
word.


£24 (?) blush + £20 train ticket + long-ass train trip = £44 + stress!

thank you for these pics! and also for your honest thoughts. although they're both beautiful, i wonder how long the ombreness will last after a good few brush swipes/swirls.

I got a message from Nordies that reads:

"Your item will be arriving later than expected. We apologize for the delay and are working to complete your order. No action is required—we just wanted to let you know."

Got this e-mail a few minutes ago too. I don't want to get my hopes up but I did get my samples on Thursday. Wonder if Nordstrom will cancel my order even after the samples shipped

It's possible. I had an item cancelled after I rec'd the samples. It was a few months ago though. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you!

Oh no. So it is possible.

Thanks for letting me know. I guess if I don't get it from Nordies then the blush was not meant for me.
