I ended up passing on Shadow Lady quad which is the only one I thought would be good for me.
I liked the three main colours but I already have deep truth and really trying to avoid buying dupes. I hope I can swap for depots of the other three.
I ended up getting Light Ripe lipstick, wich I adore! and also Rich & Ripe lipgloss which is instantly a favourite as well. I got the CoC lipglass too but when I got it home I was underwelmed. It turned kind of bright violet on me. I was able to get it to look more like a cherry red when I used it over my Pixi lipblush which is kind of watermelon red. However there was still some quite too bright and off about the colour on me so I will probably return it if I can't swap it immediately.

^^ Shadowy Lady will be easy enough to find because it's perm, and I think alot of people don't like Light Fall, so you'll probably be able to get that easily enough, but I think you'll have a hard time getting a depot of Smudged Violet. I think quite a few people bought the whole quad for that color and I haven't heard anyone say they didn't like it.
Thanks to those who recommended I try Sushi Flower in place of Sharp in the Tempting quad...I really like it! I have also learned to like Sharp, as long as I use just a touch of it on my inner lid and then blend, blend, blend into Tempting. It adds a certain something to Tempting without looking overtly green and that works on me.

I'm so happy with what I got from this Collection. I can't get over Blooming, Cherry Blossom, or Shadowy Lady quad. I might have to get another Cult of Cherry since I gave mine as a gift to a friend. It just looks so perfect to go with Queen's Sin for photos. Red Romp is too deep I think.

Cult of Cherry is the hottest l/g I ever had!
And I don't use the word "hot" very often (I am not Paris Hilton

You should try the "Russian Red" eye look on mac's website; it uses mostly Brash and a subtle hint of Sweet Chestnut. Maybe using SC to add depth and as an accessory color won't make it look like you've got a black eye. Because it really is a great quad, I was set on not getting it at all and ended up going back last week to get it. It's the one I use the most!
ps- a lot of the looks on the site are really pretty on!
pps- i might need a back up of blooming! it's my hg!

Now I'm starting to think about Blooming. Is the colour suitable for all seasons? I love the look of nicely blushed cheecks but I'm not good at that. Is Blooming lasting? Some of my blushes disappear by noon while in the morning they look like two spots of slapped on colour.

for CoC, jampacked, CB & Liqeuer!

THANK YOU Audrey for posting that photo of you with Kirsch on
I LOVE it. It's perfect for fall/winter, or for work! It's gorgeous!!
On the other hand... I'm scared of my CoC lipglass. Yep. That's right. On my NW15 or paler skin... I just can't pull it off at its full force (or anywhere near it). It ends up WAY too bright- like a whore red on me lol!
I really do like it as a stain though- I put on a TINY bit with a lipbrush... then blot to take it all off again. It leaves a really pretty stain on the lips!
Tried it on my friend over Kirsch though- she's a little lighter than Medium Dark in MSF Natural, and it was beautiful on her!
