Cool-toned and purple should be a match made in heaven!
I don't think the blush will be too purple though. The product pictures and the colours are often odd and the products look different IRL later.

Yes, that's exactly it! It fits perfect, but it would be too cool I guess. My skin has a life on it's own, it's so cool-toned, that my lips for example turn reds into pinks if there is not a good amount of brown in them. So I like to wear colours, that are not too cool, because it can get a little extreme.
But you're right, I should wait until I see the BPB irl or at least wait for swatches! I don't know why they always do this to their product images, they ALWAYS look weird and nothing like irl!

HOTasFCUK try using a 242 with a little bit of fix+ or mixing medium when using the solar bits. That is what I usually do and the result is pretty good.
Can't wait to see your swatches!!

For me, I've realized that warm toned blushers look better on me, because a cool toned one will just blend in with my undertones and not pop as much. Plus, warm toned blushers can add warmth to the face, which is always a good thing. Makes me look more alive and glowy.
As for the lips, I find that cool-toned lippies tend to flatter me more though. I can't wear anything too warm or too brown. It looks horrible on me.

I don't think you need a wallet, Tish. Just a credit card to handle your needs!
And hopefully the card doesn't bite either.

Speaking of packaging... Hello Kitty was the first time I wasn't allowed to B2M.
Does anyone know if this will apply to Style Warriors, since it also has special packaging... and is this a new rule at MAC?

Yes, yes it does.

They areeeeeeee! And yes, the product pictures always mutilate things.

With turning colours, it's not always the tones in your skin so much as your body chemistry. A lot of people with thin, fair skin cause cosmetics to change colours - for example, I turn many, many lipsticks either pink or a purpley pink. I fill in lips with liner pretty much automatically in hopes of saving the lipstick shade. You never know how something will look on me!

Oooh, a fanny pouch, hot.

Unfortunately, since Dame Edna, MAC's new rule is that collections in special packaging are no longer eligible for B2M, pro card discounts or even employee discounts. Dame Edna let some places get away with it because it was the first time this rule was really set into action. Based on this, I very much suspect that this will also apply to Style Warriors.
