Omg. I really want it so badly now! I do really love corals. When is MAC going to come out with a coral collection?!

I think maybe it's justified since I'm skipping the MSFs in Sugar Sweet and a Rose Romance and Style Warriors completely?

Sorry I meant to ask what the minimum wage was in wherever she was from in europe in canadian dollars.

$8.40 is pretty brutal though.

I have to say I'm a bit bummed by these. I saw Love Rock in this month's Glamour and got in a excited tizzy, then I go to the counter and it looks like they combined Gentle with another pinky color....weak... I just feel like these colors are so similar to the first blush MSFs especially once on. Neat concept though.

Just got my Blushes =

They are soooo gorgeous on!!!!

Love Rock is the prettiest soft true pink on & the marbled side just very lightly brushed over it gives a soft focus, slightly glowy look.

If you love Raspberry pink blushes, you need Grand Duo. Its such a pretty pretty Raspberry pink shade!

I didn't have any foundation on & these blushes made my skin look flawless & soft.

I may have to get Hot Planet now

You need Hot Planet. It's super pretty. Out of the 4 I got (Hot Planet, Moon River, Intenso, Earth to Earth) I love Instenso the most followed by Hot Planet, Moon River and then Earth to Earth. But I friggin LOVE all of them. I tried to get colors that weren't so much alike and like the blushes I already own. Love Rock looks pretty in the pan but I have Pleasantry and I've only used it twice.

Thanks - I think

Describe the color of Hot Planet. I can't remember your coloring.

oh gosh... seeing how some of you already caved, I don't feel with enabling too! lol I was going to JUST LOOK at love rock, but it was too hard to resist especially since my MA was super nice and put more than love rock on me, so then I feel in love with grand duo (elegant one was so on with this one) and moon river (it showed really well like a natural peachy flush on me NC 25, dainty hardly showed on me) too. I didn't want to try anything else so I wouldn't feel tempted about getting others.

p.s. yagmur, your fotd is gorgeous, I wish I had your complexion/skin tone

I have reddish, brownish, auburnish hair with green-blue eyes and fair NW 15 Skin. Hot Planet looks a like copper plum on me. When I use the swirly side I get a nice copper flush that makes me look awake. When I use the mono side I get a beautiful in from the cold plum that is a lot like my natural flush but it has that "I eat healthy and take my vitamins daily" glow to it. I love it.

That sounds beautiful - Thanks! I thought you had fair skin like me.

I'm trying to decide between (geesh...do I have to pick only one

)Hot Planet or Intenso

They both look so yummy

In my opinion you can get the Intenso look with just the swirly side of Hot Planet. It's not spot on but it's definitely in the same color range.

I would say Hot Planet. Intenso is well... intense! But in all seriousness (hahaha, me, serious!) Hot Planet for me is much much more wearable. But I really don't like blush that looks anything close to reddish on me.

Ahhh, Earth to Earth is calling my name! Earth to Nora....

I think this collection is really pretty. I'm obsessed with mineralized skin finishes, so this collection really speaks to me. I can't wait to see them in person!
