I recommend Golden bronzer. It's excellent for fair skintones!

I am NC25 and use Refined golden. Works really well for me and not orangey at all

Wow, Warmed is gorgeous! Look at the sheen! Can they work as bronzers, too?

i agree with winnie. i cringe when i see people using MSFs as bronzers. even super soft shimmery ones have way too much shimmer to be used as bronzers. i had a customer the other day that was about an nc35 or so who used gold deposit as a bronzer and OMG was her face disco ball glittery!

true. they need to recheck their wording i guess.

please use a regular bronzer. i'd recommend golden for your colouring.

This collection is getting me so excited!! It's so hard to shrink my list in this collection since I do want to have money for Dare To Wear, Fabulous Felines and Venomous Villains.

I really can't wait for this collection! All of the lipsticks sound amazing, definitely will be picking up Jazzed and All Styled Up. I'm looking forward to seeing Stereo Rose in person too, I'm still a little on the fence about whether or not to pick it up. The mineralize shadows and blushes have me sucked in too!

I'm NC35 too, and I didn't like how Gold Deposit looked on me. The color wasn't flattering, and neither was the intense glitter and metallic-looking sheen. I'm amazing she even used it as a bronzer - I would never ever do that. *cringe*

On a side note, I decided to try on a mineralized eyeshadow yesterday to see how I'll react to it. I wore Assemblage (from the Color Craft collection), and somehow it made my eyes itch. Sigh. I need to try out some other MES to see if I'm really unable to wear them.

it seems like mac gave all the attendants a list of product with the price and weight at the preview event and everyone just copied from there, so maybe mac made a typo

This and A+O are the ones ive been excited about. I'm all about colors. I dont own any mineralize blushes or shadows. How are the shadows? I have one skinfinish but would like to pick up one from this collection. Stereo rose looks gorgeous but might be too bright for me. Not sure what to think about it. If all else fails i'll get by candlelight

Singer82 I don't think it would be too bright on you, if you use it as a blush. I'm NC15 & have the original brighter Stereo Rose & it's fine on me.

i think it will! from the swatch on joliette.be it looks different on lips from what it does in the tube, so it won't be so in-your-face-purple. plus, you can layer it with lipglass to give it a different look

Sunny By Nature though has absolutely no shimmer, I use it as a bronzer with no problem and I don't like shimmers. For example Too Faced bronzers have way too many shimmers than SBN, I could never wear them as bronzers only as blushes.

still waiting for that HG product!


have you tried the too faced leopard one? it's quite sheer and has a fair amount of pink in it, so you'll not look grubby or orange

i have tried that one before but still don't feel it looked right on me
ssad.gif

aww no

hope you find something that works! maybe try drugstore brands so you're not paying too much if they don't work out?

i like the leopard one on me, it's not too obvious and its so pretty in the pan!
most bronzers make me look like i've got a mudpack on my face so i don't bother with them.

i'm really looking forward to getting petticoat, it looks so nice on everyone who has posted photos
