I've been debating which palette to get, so checking here. Glad to hear that BOTH the day and night palettes performed well. Now making a choice is even... harder! LOL

I love CCBs in general, and having a palette of 4 useful colors, really appeal to me. How is the powder in the Halcyon Days palette? I haven't seen swatches or FOTDs with the powders. Would they work as a blot powder on NC 25?

The lipsticks are a lustre and not a Cremesheen!

This was an email one of the girls of Depop received from MAC explaining they are and they forgot to change the labels... I'm not a fan of lustres but won't bother me as I always wear a lip liner under my lipsticks :)

This is one of those super sneaky collections. I nabbed the 217 and said I was done. Then I grabbed the 129 in-store.

Now I can't stop thinking about Only You and the blush duo. Normally I'd just buy, but I'm trying so hard to reign things in. Plus, I've been on a depotting kick so I can see the crazy amount of items I have.

;) You should get them! They are really lovely together. Without Your Love is soooo pretty on as well. See, I can't help you :rofl:

Did you get the night es palette?

I have the palette and love all products but the lightest shadow. Chunky and lots of fallout if you use a brush. Had glitter everywhere that I needed to clean up. Other than that a great staple product.

Plan to use my finger with this shade from now on.

Also so my bronzer blush duo is really nice and not stiff at all.

Great to hear! I probably won't use the lightest shade. I'm happy that your duo is not a stiffy :)

There's zero chance Without Your Love shows up on my lips without Lip Erase, so its a skip.

I did place an order last night for the blush and Only You. I have to admit that MAC is killin' it with shipping right now- they shipped in less than 10 hours!

I haven't been able to play with my goodies as they were sent to my mum's house. My sister sent a pic of them! She loves only you so far and the brush is a really pale rose gold which I don't mind. It's different but not really noticeable as promotional pictures suggested.

I'm lovin the blush duo! I just swirl my brush around the whole thing and I love the color it gives off. SO pigmented and silky! I usually don't try to use the colors in a duo like this individually and these definitely look great mixed together.

I apologize if it's been metioned. How does this Ellie G bronzer/blush compare to Rhianna's? Are the bronzers the same color?

Sorry my lighting is kind of off tonight but I've tried to compare the RiRi one to the Ellie Goulding one and imo both are different the bronzers on me the RiRi one is more matte and warm where as the Ellie Goulding one has the sheen and is quite cool toned and the blushes? well completely different shades as you can see!
