Wow the purple lippie looks gorgeous! My complexion is quite similar to her so if it looks like that on me as well... it's mine

Thank you, Winnie. I agree with you. I don't really need to add more MB, but I'm just curious. Blush addict here! Hehe.

Speaking of dramatic colors, which pro blush is your favorite? Do you have/like Full Fuchsia?

If you can wear this as subtle blush, you definitely can do the same with By Candlelight. I think By Candlelight has a touch of gold.

Here are the swatches by Karla.

By Candlelight: MAC Warm & Cozy - The Next Best Thing To Going Shopping Yourself

HTH.

Thanks for the comparison - it looks like I can at least knock one measly item off my list :p

Will By Candlelight be pretty much the same except sheerer? This collection will be the first time I'm buying MSFs and I'd like to know what to expect.

I have both and use them as a subtle blush and highlighter (I'm NW 15). By Candlelight adds more color than RIT and it's much more beautiful

its cool and all, but just like with anything online, colours aren't always the truest to form based on computer settings and all.

sorry, just wanted to say.

Thanks for pointing it out! At least now I know.

My fave pro blush is probably Cheek. I think it has already been discontinued. I have so many blushes that I haven't actually had a chance to play with all my pro blushes yet; especially since I'm always in a rush, I prefer colors that I'm familiar with so I can just throw on and go (I have learnt that experimenting with new products when you're in a hurry doesn't usually turn out well). I haven't tried on Full Fuchsia yet, but I did try on Azalea once and it was super bright. Lol.

Since I was messing around with my camera anyways, I decided to take a pic of my pro blushes (pic is clickable):

(top row) Cheek - Rhubarb - Dirty Plum - Full Fuchsia - Salsarose
(bottom row) Cantaloupe - Flame Red - House Wine - Azalea - Deep Pink

I was worried too since Studio Fix liquid foundation broke me out so badly. But I have been able to wear the mineralized skinfinishes and blushes with no breakout problems. I will say though that I'm not prone to breakouts. But after studio fix, I was leary of MAC face products.

I totally agree with you that its not new, but I think they mean exclusive for Sephora because the OPI sephora colors are exclusive to the store, so no other site will have this 'try on' capability with those specific colors.

More color than RiT? Uh-oh, you're causing me trouble now!

I've become a member of the mineralize army this year, switching to the cream foundation and buying blushes from Too Fabulous that blew my mind. I have trouble going back to the cream blushes I used before, and even Azalea Blossom doesn't get much love. There is nothing like that fabulous mineralized glow!

I haven't had any trouble with them, and I use them daily, but I stipple them on with a 188 brush and do not buff or swirl them into my skin. I bet that helps, because even with stippling, they sometimes make my skin feel a little "coated" after a few hours of wearing.

I've also heard from someone who used to break out from them that she's ok now if she applies a thin layer of tea tree oil before using them. I could see how that could work too, if you're not sensitive to tea tree oil.

I'm doing the whole "stalk the Pro Store" thing now for this collection. They didn't have it in over the weekend, so maybe I'll call back on Saturday. There are a couple of things I'd really like to at least try on...but I have a feeling that I won't be buying much more than a lippie or two, and maybe a MSF if I find one I love.
