Now that you mention that color... I'm tempted too! Looks like it's also a nice color to layer on over a l/s

In some pics Hibiscus looks a lot like Exxxhibitionist kl from Peacocky or maybe a little more orange. Exxx was also compared to VG Cyndi but it might've been the lipgloss. I know the lipstick version of Cyndi looked nothing like Exxx on my lips. Still makes me feel I probably don't need Hibiscus and since Bust out is lustre I'm probably skipping that too. What's wrong with me, am I still this hung over from Peacocky?

Don't know if you guys have seen it but Blusherine has some swatches up!

http://blusherine.blogspot.com/2011/04/mac-surf-baby-collection.html

She has pictures of the makeup bag, Hibiscus, Short Shorts, Saffron, Strange Potion, and Lush Light Bronze. I guess we can never have too many pictures/swatches!

By the way, is it just me or does this collection have a lot of product names starting with "S"

 

[cutegingerbread]

Swatches by Iswii.net - My Paradise Cheek Powder, Surf USA e/s, Swell Baby e/s, Short Shorts e/s, Mocha l/s, Hibiscus l/s, Krazy Kahuna l/g, Good Lovin' l/g, Pigment Stack Summer Stash, Blue Noon Powerpoint Pencil

Thank you so much for the effort you put into collecting the links altogether!!

Do we have uk prices for any of this collection yet? I was certain it was a skip but my paradise keeps calling me back in :eyelove:

they will be the normal prices for shadows, lipsticks etc - not sure about the bronzing sticks but it looks like they could be about £30 which is insane!

[/quote] Oh.my.god! That is so so so insane..... I'd assumed there would be an increase due to the packaging so does that make it £15.50 for eyeshadows? But blushes £20 or so? I'm still new to the mac pricing when it comes to special products. I'm just hoping with My Paradise being a blush it won't be more than £20ish as I'm poor this month! :'(

The gray shadow looks more promising than the one from fashion flower Im excited about that and I really want to see more swatches of the yellow shadow.

This blog (http://www.confessionsofabeautyholic.com/2011/04/mac-surf-baby.html) says there is a price increase of 50p or so for everything. It made me sad

I agree. I wanted both greys to be unique and buy-worthy, but I don't think that the one from Fashion Flower looks that special. Short Shorts, Sun Blonde and Swell Baby all look promising to me. And of course, Hibiscus will be mine no matter what. And maybe My Paradise.

[/quote] Thanks for this lovely! I didn't know what the prices were going to be like as this is my first MAC collection that has had special packaging apart from WW which was vastly more expensive due to the bigger sizes! My list based on those prices may include: My Paradise, Short Shorts, Swell Baby and Naturally Eccentric - depending on swatches :eyelove:

I only got into mac just after ww launched so I'm new to all of this too, although it is very addictive

Another random thing, apparently if we have a debenhams beauty club card then we can get a fiver off any of their top rated beauty products (which are already 10% off)! I'm going in tomorrow to get a lipstick from mac I think I want a nudey sort of pink but who knows what I'll come with!

I'm also planning on reserving my stuff from surf baby - hibiscus x2 and strange potion

[/quote] Oh that is interesting to know - thanks so much! My nearest debs is a wee while a way though so would probably cost me more to get there, lol! My fave pinky/peachy colours are creme cup and shy girl :eyelove: swatches can be found here: http://karlasugar.net/2009/10/mac-cremesheen-lipsticks/ I love creme d'nude too but that's more a true beige nudey type colour!
