Definately grabbing that brush... just like every limited edition brush that Mac brings out.. I pick them up!
This hits Aussie stores next few weeks. I went down and saw my local MUA, I want to check out the contour creams to see what they are like before I order them

This one looks like more bristles, ITA is flatter. The art supply store has something that looks similar to both, i guarantee!

What sort of shelf life does the contouring products have? Trying to work out what ones I want in my kit and for me

I'd say like CCB's, i.e. 6 months.

HOW? Please share ur technique!Sometimes I like sharp lines for a contour, but I usually use a credit card to achieve that look.
The new brush will be a great tool to create a more precise contour. But I agree, buffing out will be necessary.
Mac-Guy: will you please!!! share ur contour and highlight techniques?? THX so much!

If they sell well and if people continue to ask for them in store after they sold out, there is a good chance that they will become perm or at least Pro-only.

I don't know. How many things have people loved and MAC still hasn't brought it back? I limited edition color? I can understand however a limited edition product or brush that is used as tools to created basic face daily is a bit much.

Thank you for the swatches MRV!
Did you swatch Deeply Dashing too?
If yes do you think that it would work for the crease?Or is it too shimmery?

I can't get an accurate picture! On my computer now, the cream is much redder and darker than IRL, the pigment is closer but a bit less red IRL. These are quite heavy swatches. And my hand is really pale (N10ish).

The 215 looks like the 214. I wonder how different are they? I love the 214. It looks to me that the bristles on the 215 are a little taller than the ones on the 214. Can anyone confirm?
I don't have 214, but I think 215 is bigger. It's like 235 but with a bit shorter and rounder hairs.

Yes I swatched them all. I would say that they are glittery rather than shimmery, of glitter even. The 3 lightest shades are more 'glitter' and the 3 darker ones 'colour with glitter'. The level of shine might depend on if you use sheerly, blend well, etc. but there are tiny bits that sparkle. I have not yet tried on lid (or face) though. I think DD was my second favorite. It is pigmented. Difficult to say if you'd like it in the crease or not.
