I got the permanent Soft and Gentle MSF and I totally love love it! I'm definitely going to get all of them except Comfort, which is a bit too dark for me. I can't wait~~~

Try using it on the back of your cheekbones, it gives a sort of "contour" effect. I've never used Comfort alone, I always pair it with By Candlelight (Comfort at back of cheekbones, and By Candlelight on the apples) - it is one of my fave combos ever!

Back in 2008 when I just got in MAC and barely know what MSF is, I looked at all the swatches of the MSFs and singled out Stereo Rose as my favourite one. It is the exact shade I'm looking to put on my cheeks. That's how beautiful I think SR is.

Yay!!! Stereo Rose, I am so excited!!!
It's the only thing I am interested in from this collection. It's funny, one blush sounds axcatly like Two Virtues...bright pink and lavender. Just make a pure lavander one allready sheesh. I allready have petticoat and never use it. I whipped it out today though and really like it.

Girls is Comfort similar or identical to Sunny By Nature??? I love SBN, and if Comfort is similar I wanna get it!

Here are some swatches of similar MSFs to Comfort from Em (iheartmakeup). I've heard that Comfort is more orange-toned/is slightly darker and is more shimmery that SBN (but less shimmery that most MSFs in general--think a sheen rather than metallic). HTH!

I hated Sunny By Nature on me, but Comfort is love. I think it's because Comfort has a sheen to it, whereas Sunny By Nature is rather matte looking. The sheen of Comfort is what makes it wearable, IMO, because it doesn't appear overly brown/orange.

Hey Lou, I wore Petticoat today too!

 

[genduk26]

i want Stereo Rose. it's so pretty

. but my skin is allergic to mineral products.

 

[Face2Mac]

Sunny By Nature is a bronzer on my brown skin. It is very matte with a slight sheen, I couldn't wear it as a highlight because it doesn't highlight, it's more of a blush/bronzer

Comfort is a gold sheen highlight but not a white gold like Nars Albatross but more like a deep peachy gold without glitter. So awesome, so pretty.

Petticoat, a metallic pink that makes my cheeks scream in horror at 1980's makeup, a no go on me.

Same here! Love the metallic finish except I can't use it as a blush...must be put over a matte blush for me.

I wish MAC just released Pleasureflush as well! I think that's the only missing one after Stereo Rose that I want.

Comfort os more yellow brown whereas SBN is more peach brown.. I LOVE SBN on me but I am NC 44.. i can wear it as a blush.. comfort blends more into my skin but gives my cheekbones a nice contour

 

[sailordom]

I'm torn! I really need to cut back on my makeup purchases if I want to buy a lot from the cat collection....

I will try to stick to just Stereo Rose.

Lippies are usually what get me to buy more than planned, so hopefully these won't tempt me! Many of them sound too cool-toned for me anyway.

But this could all change with swatches!

 

[kabuki_KILLER]

MAC's july launches are going to kill my money. XD

 

[only1angel]

Something tells me Stereo Rose will be the first to sell out in this collection..........
