thanks! ill definitely grab tt. think tt will be nice for the waterline. is it blunt? from the pics, it looks tt way..
....I am so happy to see the first swatches here!!!
Thank you very much Paparazzi Boy!!!!
I really like the eyeshaows and the eyeliners!!!
The blush looks also very pretty but really quite orange....maybe it looks different (more coral!!!) in other light.

Oh, shoot I forgot about the makeup bagsI was hoping for more of a coral, too, but now my wallet is happy! I think it's great they did such a bold color- that's not something you see everyday!
Thank you so much paparazziboy for your swatches!
From those swatches, I only want Short Shorts and Swell Baby. The rest can be skipped which is great since I want the stacked pigments and a makeup bag plus some lippies!
ALL the eyeshadows (Saffron, Short Shorts, Sun Blonde, Surf USA, Swell Baby)
my paradise blush
gilded eyeliner
makeup bag
Oh Geez, I havent even included the lipstick and lipgloss !!! Oh boy im in trouble !

Thanks Paparazziboy for the swatches! I think i will pick up Surf USA and Swell Baby. My Paradise does look very orange. I have enough corals and orange isn't a colour i like on me so i will skip it.

Maybe just Swell Baby and My Paradise for me. But I could just end up skipping this collex entirely. The colors are gorgeous, for sure, but very dupable, IMO.

[quote name="LMD84" url="/forum/thread/172561/mac-surf-baby-discussion/1380#post_2102063"] Thanks so much for the swatches! It has made me happy because i am now 100% skipping all the shadows! money saved! hooray!
[/quote] Thanks for the swatches Paparazziboy. It doesn't look like the colours are something that I not have yet. I had high hopes for the grey, but it looks a lot like Bough Grey. Maybe another skip for me.

I am so skipping lots of things from this collection. The shadows and liners and those bronzing sticks, etc....I may even skip the blush. Nothing's really jumping at me right now. I think I'm only getting my backup of Saffron.

Thanks for the swatches, PaparazziBoy!
The e/s colors aren't blowing me away. Most of them I can dupe from my collection. The ones I liked the most, Surf USA and Short Shorts are practically dead-on dupes for the MUFE Aqua Creams I have in Turquoise and Lt. Beige.
Too much orange in the blush for me! I had a Nars Taj Mahal reaction.
The liners look pretty but again, I've got dupes for those.
Looks like my original list stands with Hibiscus l/s and Strange Potion l/g. I may get Bust Out! if it doesn't look like Violetta in the swatches.
Bronzer sticks I'm skipping as I lucked into a few NARS multiple minis in South Beach and Palm Beach.

Yeah, that overspray stuff is nerve wrecking. I wish they'd cut it out.

Thanks for the swatches.!!! Just hauling Saffron, Hibiscus, My Paradise Blush and a blush stick only if it is a raspberry color AND its a real gel like texture. I think a gel like texture would be awesome. It would be different from the usual cream blushes and sheer, perfect for layering too. I am thinking of something like the Tarte cheek stains, but a little less in price. Actually, thinking out loud here, the Tarte ones are actually better, boasting on some snazzy skin friendly ingredients, so maybe I should get one of those instead.
The teal shadow reminds me of Cool Heat, which I have, so I am good with a color like that. The gray reminds me of Gazette Grey, and I have Scene, so I am good on grays too. The yellow. I just can't do yellows like I would like too. so now. I may pick up the champagne one... we'll see.
So if My Paradise looks like Devil, that would be good. I wanted to get Devil from pro, eventually, but now, if they are similar, I can just go with My Paradise for a while. knowing me, I will actually get Devil anyway.

^ Yeah....the one from ML wasn't difficult. Hopefully this one will be easy too. I am still a lil indecisive about the blush. Verbally I am saying no but in my head I'm saying maybe.
