What does this have to do with BBR? Several things.

1. I am wearing blonde msf on the cheeks
2. Before this pic was taken I went to the MAC store to play
3. Boobies! Even my balloon sleeves can't cover the ladies

For me, So Ceylon, but that’s not to say that the Brunette MSF isn’t worth adding to your collection as well!

Remember, these new MSF’s are very special since they feature the “gradations” (4 Stripes of color) that the marbleized MSF’s don’t have.

These gradations very simply – make them more versatile than the traditional MSF with the veining and will allow you to get very specific in your application. Allowing you to swipe whichever of the 4 tones from the mix and apply it wherever you wish. That alone makes them, extremely, innovative.

Also, I believe Brunette MSF will be a bit more shimmery than So Ceylon.

All three of these new MSF’s are very shimmery, not glittery, but shimmery in a good way.

As always – if it flatters your skin tone grab it!!!

My MA and I by all appearances have the same skin tone. He swatched Redhead MSF on his wrist and it appeared, disturbingly, orange on him. It was wild, but on me it looked quite lovely – if I do say so myself – certainly not orange!

So yes - be careful when shopping these.

My other MA, who’s Asian, wore Blonde MSF and she looked friggin’ AMAZING!!! She loves Blonde – it just looked perfect on her. Blonde MSF is a silvery rose and very luminescent!

Mineralize Skinfinish Degradé, Brunette
Shade description: Soft coral to copper bronze


O.K. I think I’ve just convinced myself to get the other two colors…hmmmm!

If anyone has Margin blush, how does it compare to MSF's from this collection? Do they have the same texture and sheen without noticeable shimmer? Somewhat like a glowing eyeshadow? Looking at the swatch thread, I imagine Margin looks very close to one of the stripes in Brunette MSF. I'm so tempted by Redhead but I hardly ever use highlighters except for the eyes sometimes.
th_dunno.gif

I tried Female cream highlighter very lightly today but it looks kind of strange with green shimmer and no sheen, it would be much better under the eyebrows. And I dislike Petticoat - too shimmery with noticeable glitter, looks rough on and very obvious like it wasn't milled finely enough to be a face product
nope.gif
Great for dusting over the shoulders though.
I haven't felt appealed by Margin for that same reason despite no glitter in it and never actually used it on my face. Maybe I should try it as highlighter only and see what happens? I've got used to Bobbi Brown and Smashbox blushes and Soflights, their texture is so fine, it's kind of frightening to branch out. But MAC has so much more color choices.

By the way, was there a violet or lavender blush by MAC yet? I would be all over that one...

I guess for this collection everyone had to try lip products on for themselves to see. You can't really depend on other ppl's review

Sooo I tried my two MSF's that I got the other day from BBR....and I am in Looovveee
smiles.gif

Redhead is the perfect color to go over my blush. I wore it over dollymix the other day and I had the perfect (just came in from outside) glow!! I have a few other MSF's (Petticoat, Soft & Gentle and Gold Deposit) but these new ones are a dream!!!
I tried my Brunette MSF yesterday along with Henna, 100 strokes and flip...and a perfect warm look!! Brunette was definitely dark enough to work as a blush/bronzer alone...soooooo pretty! I am very impressed with these and have been considering wether I should be getting the Blonde MSF...

Is the Blonde one pigmented enough to be used as a blush?

I haven't bought anything and I don't think I will but I really want to know what Red Devil l/g looks like on lips particularly on NC30 OR 35.

Oh and is Red Devil anything like Pink Grapefruit? Thanks!
