Perfect Topping chronicle continued:
So this morning I was set on seeing what can be done. I took my 187 brush and swirled the hell out of my Perfect Topping and this is how it looks now.

It swatches completely different now. Before it was like a straight beige, no shimmer either. Now it swatches as a very light peach with shimmer.
I hate that so much product had to be used to get it to work, I wish it worked right of the bat as one would expect it.
I'm trying it out today. I wore it with NARS Mistinguette blush and Snapdragon on my lips.

It's lovely but again, I hate how much I had to do to get it to work.
So pretty

Yay, it's pretty now. :amused: Looks great on you!
 
Oh my god another zillion comments! I'll just throw in: Snap Dragon is lovely and sheer but i'll probably use it on top of other colors (dark skinned, a UB naked Foundation 7), and I think the hybrid is very pretty. The Rose Lily is like a glistening Snob, imo, which i almost love, but the application pisses me off.

I'm going to the store tomorrow to swatch the rest of the collection (i only ordered the two MSF's and Dreaming Dahlia l/s). I've been reading that you should look and try to get the MSF'S with the best coloring /veining. How do I do that? At my stores, the MU's have to get the products then they take it directly to the cash registers.

Got my pt yesterday! I had the original years ago & it was one of the first msfs I completely used up, so sadly I don't have the old one to compare :( but any who personally I feel like it gives off that same effect like the last one. I'm in loveeee

Here is a picture of my Perfect Topping from the original release from Sugarsweet.
Actually this was my first MAC item ever. :)
The dome shape has been gone but it is still going strong.

You could ask nicely, and see what they say? They might not want you messing with the product, but they might be cool with it. Who knows?

If you have an SA who knows you well, it's going to go over better.

When I want a product with particular veining, I just ask for it. I've never been given any attitude about that (either at a counter or the store). I wouldn't go into the drawer and start messing around though - I just ask for one with lots of/almost no x.

always helps to have a friendly SA.. but you could ask to see the actual product (no touching but the veining will be obvious) and keep looking till you find the one you want. Don't take the first one they give you -- they probably know the duds and will earmark them for someone who is "easy".

I got my package yesterday and I'm not please with 2/3 of the items I bought from this collection. I got heavenly hybrid, snapdragon and azalea in the afternoon.

Heavenly hybrid was nice. I even wore it earlier today, but didn't take a pic. Snapdragon and azalea barely showed up. Both will be returned, I may get petal power instead.
