I have this *feeling* going on that this collection is going to be released early like Wonder Woman was.....

Me too... Like I said in an earlier post, MAC CS told me that they could not confirm when it would be released in the US. Also I was told to be sure that I suscribe to the email notifications (which I already do) to be sure that I get notified when it is released. I couldn't get them to give me a definate date of release.

Thanks for the swatches, PinkBasset!
What are your thoughts on Good Lovin' l/g?
I love how it looks but I'm thinking it can be duped.

I am really suprised how similar Hibiscus and Toxic Tale look!

I did not expect them to be that close....


PinkBasset.....thank you so,so very much for all the pics and swatches

That really helps a lot!

Again I forgot to add this to my previous post. So here you go, Hibiscus with similar shades:

L-R: Good To Go, Hibiscus, Toxic Tale, Viva Glam Cyndi l/g, Chanel Audace



So Hibiscus is a bit more red than TT, not as orange as GTG, and brighter and redder than Cyndi lipglass. Chanel Audace is a bit deeper red.

[/quote] But does Toxic Tale really look that way on your skin? It looks brighter and more orange on mine. I'm going to get Hibiscus regardless because it's a different finish. I love TT to death, but that Satin finish is not my friend some days.

Oh you girls are so sweet, thank you all! It makes me happy if my swatches were helpful.

I can swatch Surf USA with Sugarpill's Midori, I'm way too curious you see. ;)

Your swatches are awesome (and you have beautiful lips, by the way)! Now that I see Surf USA next to other teal colours, I feel like I need that. It reminds me of Fyrinnae's Mermen, which is a similar rich aqua-green. Despite what I may have thought, it does look quite different from other things I have. I think I still want Hibiscus, despite its similarity to Toxic Tale- TT does look way more orange on me for some reason. I'll see when I swatch it in person. Sun Blonde is definitely on my list now... If Short Shorts really looks so much like Nylon, I may just opt to pick up Fresh Daisy instead. So the list has currently shifted to:

Sun Blonde
Short Shorts (maybe)
Surf USA
Krazy Kahuna
Bust Out
Hibiscus

I'm drifting away from My Paradise, since I don't even wear Devil all that often. I keep trying to remind myself that the reason I'm drawn to it is because of that lovely over-spray pattern. Which will be gone after a few uses.

Actually yesterday I thought to myself that perhaps the "May 12" date is for Surf Baby? Maybe there was a mix up with which collection. Seems like SB may come early.

PinkBassett, thank you so much for your swatches! They really helped. Smoke & Diamonds looks so close to Swell Baby...would you say this is true in person? Thank you!! :)

I'm surprised how green Surf USA looks compared with the official product photos. Sun Blonde looks very yellow in the 'closed pot' official photos, but the open pot, viewed from an angle photos seem to more closely match reality and the description

You're not alone!

I had to go back to colour story info and see did Mac really describe Sun Blonde as "yellow with gold pearl". How dull is that compared to the swatch??
Surf USA looks like Sugarpill's Midori to me, it'd be interesting to see how similar they are side by side.
 
Thanks for those great swatches Pinkbasset!
[/quote] Sun Blonde from the description and the promo looked plain yellow and not like something special. Great to see it is and more, the shadows have great quality :pompom: [quote name="LMD84" url="/forum/thread/172561/mac-surf-baby-discussion/2430#post_2115635"]



mine did not get dispatched yesterday either. hopefully my box will arrive tomorrow!

Yep, if Sun Blonde looks as gorgeous on me as Pinkbasset's swatch (thank you!!), I'm definitely getting it too :)

No dispatch email here, either. Then again, this has happened before when I've ordered on a launch day, but the goods have arrived in 2 days as normal. I'm guessing they're too busy fulfilling orders to hit the button to tell the system to send the dispatch email.

The problem with the email notifications, in the UK at least, is that they tend to come a couple of days after the event, when stuff has already sold out

PinkBasset, those swatches are great. I'm really looking forward to Surf USA now, I didn't realise it was that green and I've been looking for a colour like that so that is great!
