Me too. I have some back to MAC so I think I am going to get these two items with it. sometimes its hard for me to turn down a good berry lipstick.

Indigo Pink is a definite ' must have' for me. I will probably get Riveting Rose too as it's such a beautiful color. It will probably be way too dark for me but, as has been pointed out, I could use a lip brush, or even pat it on. I'm very tempted with Cult Pink, too, as it looks like it would be a very natural blush colour for me, but do I really need any more blushers? Come to that, do I really need any more lip products? The answer is probably no, but I just can't resist
There's nothing else I want from this collection, though, which must be a relief for my bank account

Ugh! Will there ever be a Mac collection that I'll be able to skip? Whenever preliminary info come out I always say to myself that I don't like anything based on the description, blah, blah, blah but when the swatches come out, then it's a different story. I thought this would be an easy skip for me but I'm loving Pink Cult, Riveting Rose, and Biker Blue.

I am smelling another ES debacle here.. grrr -- formulations are way to similar to Tartan Tale.
don't want to burst anyone's bubbles.. if you have cash to burn, go for it.. if you are watching your wallet like the rest of us.. wait a bit. These are not going to fly out the doors... thats just my opinion. And we all know about opinions... everybody has one

I agree with this. In my area this collection will not fly off the counters.

....My bf wanted to go to the mall to get a video game so0o of course I wandered over to the Bay to see what was up and she let me see the collection since they already had it (not on display just stored away in the drawers) so I experimented with a few things and while I think this collection is a nice one.. I don't foresee this being one that flies off the shelves.
This is all just my opinion but this what I found....
The pigmentation of the eyeshadows were less than mediocre... somewhat hard to work with... NOTHING like the peacocky collection
The blushers were amazing and I say both are the stars of this show... Both will suit many skin tones but I think Pink Cult is more fair toned friendly and you're less capable of going overboard. (I am going to buy Pink Cult now for sure) I found PC looks like a dusty mauve in pan but on my face it applies this nice sorta baby pink that's just too perfect for words!
The Nailpolishes were ok...the blue is really nice but I am certain you could find a dupe for this polish that's much cheaper. The white was rather unique in it's color and drying texture but it was unfortunately very streaky and I wasn't able to get it evened out... also did take longer to dry than the blue
Didn't play too much with the lippies but Riveting Rose is reallyyyy nice! It's one you should try on even if you don't think it would work because something about this lippie is unique in that it almost reminded me of a mood gloss the way it just seems to be the perfect color on any skin tone, lip pigmentation etc..
it's basically a reiteration of what most people already said/thought but thanks for letting me share!

I think the blushes and the blue nail polish will be the first to go

This is exactly what I think about this collection and I'm going to take pink cult too because I'm a blush addict

Really? I had no problems with the pigmentation of these shadows. I'm posting the YT overview now showing how they apply. On the other hand, some of the Peacocky shadows were disappointing in application, esp. since MAC advertised them as these intense metallic shadows.
