Awesome haul, Icecaramellatte! Enjoy your new goodies.

Not sure. Will call right now to find out and pm you! Remember Midnight is perm so you can get it anytime.

Anyone going to the counters today ? I just called a local store and they are supposedly holding PP, BG and Damson for me until later this evening. Just didn't want to chance PP being SO

Wish I had seen this earlier! I JUST left the MAC counter at Dillards! They had all of the colors at my store...I just wanted to see Midnight in person to decide if I wanted it or not.

I went to look at these PP today, and I wasn't impressed . I didn't purchase anything !

Went today and picked up black grape, damson and pink pepper. Moth was on my list but appeared silvery on me. Pink pepper did remind me a bit of mythology but I thought I'd be nice for summer looks.

Midnight

It's pretty but I still haven't decided if I will get it.

I held off for a bit but more than likely will get Midnight after Indulge. I ended up getting Damson, BG and PP. Night light pic from store closing purchases, please excuse

Kinda reminds me of a darker Blue Orbit EDES...still very pretty though.

I did not intend on purchasing the pressed pigments, but while I was at the Mac store preordering my Indulgence items, the MUA suggested I look at them. I am glad I did because I fell in love with Pink Pepper which is a gorgeous color, Damson, and Black Grape. I wasn't impressed with any of the other colors especially the lighter colors, looks like glittery mess without color. Moth reminded me of a lighter version of Black Grape.

i ended up with Pink Pepper today LOL! doh! it's pretty. at some point i will get Damson too. Black Grape im on the fence about...

 

[LARAELYSE]

Both Damson & Lime ice were sold out when I went to my counter to pick up my hold @ 6pm. (Luckily I had them both in my bag!) I tried pink pepper on my lips with a little bit of tendertone on top...very pretty! Damson is my absolute fave though!

 

[2browneyes]

All of the colors were available when I got to the counter a little while ago. I caved and purchased PP and Damson. Nothing else made me say I had to have them. I'm satisfied

 

[MACGirl13]

Has anyone purchased Summer Honey? I am curious about that one now that I bought the other three. I looked when I was there, but it didn't appeal to me as much as Damson, Pink Pepper and Black Grape, but now that I see some of the swatches, I am thinking that it is one that I should consider.

 

[MACGirl13]

If I'm wanting strong colour payoff, i use the 215 or the 214. But if I'm just wanting the shimmer to top off a shadow, i use my finger. But any flat dense brush would work. Something soft and fluffy wouldn't work so well.

I bought the 215 to go with the pressed pigments and I already have the 214. I have used both this morning during my application and I can say, both brushes are amazing with them.

Erine, I bought Pink Pepper, Black Grape and Damson and I passed on the Summer Honey, what are your thought for someone that is NW20/NC20? I am thinking that I need to go back and get it would be good to put in the corner (tear duct) to work with the Pink Pepper. Your opinion is appreciated.

I'm nc20 and bought it. It's really pretty, and definitely a good colour to pair with pink pepper!

It's be pretty worn on the lid with PP on the bottom lashline, with coral (pro) in the crease for a monochromatic look too!

Thanks for the suggestions, I will look at that as well. Corals works perfect on my skin and makes my green/hazel eyes pop.
