thank you so much for sharing your thoughts on Swell Baby Katred! I think it now deserves a spot on my list too ^__^
Plus, I don't own a single gray eyeshadow!

I think it might be the perfect first gray

I really hope it's Monday afternoon/evening so I can get to hibiscus. I'm just going to order that and wait until I get to a counter to see swell baby. Katred how close do you think it is to bough gray? I have that one and I forgot all about it.

Thanks hergreyness...you helped me to keep good lovin off of my list. Plus its just not unique enough. And also that I need to get Hibiscus. My list still is small thank goodness, but the pigment stack will put it over 50$ which I was trying to stay under, damn. I'm soooooo excited for Surf USA now. I love me some teals and this one sounds too good to pass up

Thank for everyone thats giving reviews and swatches! It REALLY helps :) And good to see ya back Erin! We missed ya

Man my eyes must be playing tricks sometimes Saffron looks more orange than red. Then it looks red again idk maybe I'm just sleepy. I hope its a red on me, because I'll add it to my list. After seeing the swatches of everything I think I just want three eyeshadows ....and the gilded white liner...I think thats it.

I keep going back & forth when it comes to the Gilded liner. I heard it doesn't last too long on the waterline, and that would be the main place I'd use it for

@Shontay: So glad you got your stuff! Sorry you missed out on Hibiscus, but you'll find a way to get it, I'm sure.

@Jenn: Nice to see you on here again!

Shontay, I'm glad you're loving Krazy Kahuna. It's a really unique color/texture combination - definitely in the top 5 most adventurous lip colors so far this year from MAC.

I'm gonna rock it too when I get it next week, and I'm NC15!
Oooh.... liba. You're bad. Now I'm thinking I may be able to pull it off, too.

Since my counter didn't let me reserve, I think I'm gonna order online to make sure I don't miss out on Hibiscus because I'll be really mad if I do. Might get Krazy Kahuna now (thanks Shontay and liba) but if I do, it'll be an impulse. Trying to stay strong at Hibiscus x2.

If I may chime in Shontay, Bough Grey is a bit darker and bluer. The shimmer seems to be the same though.

Saffron would probably my one purchase from this collection, as I'm thinking of getting a red-orange shadow. I should have bought that Prescriptives eye shadow at Macy's before they decided to do limited web-only sales. Maybe somebody here remembered that eyeshadow at the counter... Surf USA looked great, but I still have Tarina Tarantino's Starchild Odyssey palette, in which there is this nice metallic green teal. Must use up my existing supplies.

As for lipsticks and glosses, I think I've reached my limit of reddish stuff. (The following is a Can of Worms

alert, and I do not know how you would react to this--) I have MAC's Sci-Fi-Delity and Dare You. Works great. And I just got an Avon Anew gloss, in Always Apple. Do not know whether to keep it, the shade was not what I've expected. (I told you it's a Can of Worms!)

I love that lip combo on you Shontay, I've yet to see a lip colour that looks bad on you. I've been loving Hibiscus lately, It's been wore so much since I bought it and it still looks brand new. Today I watched Lou's pigment vid so I'm wearing Melon pigment as a blush and on the lips I wore Hibiscus with my fave ever gloss Nymphette over it, it turns Hibiscus into a gorgeous goldy coral lip. Def my fav Mac purchase this year.

As I ate my breakfast just now, I sat there thinking of all the beautiful color combos I'll be able to do with all of the eyeshadows I'm getting...*le sigh*

Thanks Chester, Sonia, Layla and everyone who answered a question or gave a compliment. Can't give thumbs up on my phone. I'm wearing sun blonde and saffron right now and they are really nice. Looks like a sunset. I would prefer wearing SB with something different though because SB brings like a red tone out in saffron and I'd rather keep it caramel/coral. I bet SB would be great with surf USA. Swell Baby too. I'm also weakly mocha and least kahuna. It's my new favorite combo.
