I really don't know what to do mmmm strada is really small O___o (a third of the product for the double of the price it's not worth it)... restrict is sooo pale, I don't think it could suit me

Finally swatches!!!! Glad I ordered strada in pro pan... Now I need to decide.... Restrict or Not.... I'm not concerned about collection selling out so in no hurry.

I'm going to skip this collection.

I know that I will probably regret it as I always do, but I am just not loving the lipsticks the way I had hoped I would. Plus with "T's" reviews. I really wanted to love Fervent & expected it to be a unique color, but it reminds me of one or two of the shades I already have. Plus with it not going on too well and not lasting. Fingers crossed MAC can get themselves together and create a bunch of terrific new finishes & colors that will last. I will hold off for Daphne Guinness & Iris Apfel's collection & all the other terrific ones coming out next year. Best of luck to all of you who do order. Please let us know what you like, recommend and don't.

I think my haul may be smaller than originally planned but I will wait for more swatches or until I see it IRL before I decide.

Strada would look lovely on you. FYI, I find that since Christine has a warmer skin tone, Strada looks pinker on her than it does on me. I think it's a light enough colour that it sort of "melds" to the skin tone of the person wearing it.

thank you :) i shall call up and order over the phone when the collection is released but ask for the pro pan of strada rather than the GP version... :)

i'm getting strada (pro pan though, luckily i'll be in london soon!) and restrict lipstick.
i never get stuff from the couture collection since it's so expensive but i love the lipstick and the packaging is right up my alley too :)

ok... i am now unsure on what to do with the piggies... i feel i can skip the purple one (i have deep purple) and the grey looks nice but i don't wear silvers that often.

I'd say get them. I really like the piggies for their texture and the color pay-off, especially if you use both in the same look. On my skin, Guise swatches as a very light silver and I have nothing that comes close to it. It is a nice color for a subtle smokey eye that will look stunning on pale skin, especially if you wear it with a vampy lip.

Deceit is much more burgundy than purple on me, with the purple coming more as a sheen whereas the base seems to be a true burgundy. IMO, it's rather unique and I don't think it looks like deep purple.

For reference, I'm NW20 (maybe closer to 15-18 during this time of the year), so the colors might look different on other complexions.

The only drawback is the smaller size, but piggies are usually the only product that I do not BU as I haven't finished any yet (except for perm colors). Happy shopping.

I've lost interest in the brush because nobody has talked about it. lol. Maybe I'll see it at a CCO eventually.
