I don't know if that is going to be enough to stop me or enable me to pick it up... WHAT IS WRONG WITH ME AND THIS TYPE OF BLUSH?!?!??
Do any WOC have swatches of Liquid Passion? I forgot to try it on at the counter and now I'm wondering if I should drive back out and grab it. Miss KiKi mentioned putting it over Peachstock or Honeylove and that sounds so good.
Also, I love RFL because I don't think I can blush overdose on it even if I tried (which I will).

Thanks. There seems to be less buzz about the TR quad, and I was curious because I ordered both.

caliente looked like a hot mess on me when i tried it on in store. the mua's kept trying to find ways to make it work but they gave up. I was so bummed because that was only lipstick i wanted. Ended up getting FMP even though i have strong woman, DLG and heroine because i wanted the packaging.

Yay I called Nordies and asked them to hold Bare My Soul for me to pick up after work. I'm not getting for myself as I don't really like MAC eyeshadows. Its my coworkers bday so I'm getting it for her.

I just got back from my counter. I only got Ripe For Love and Hot Nights blushes. I'm proud of myself.
The blushes are both beautiful. Hot Nights is ultra pigmented. I would use a light hand with it. HN looks really similar to Prom Princess. Some might say HN is tiny bit redder. I'm glad I got Hot Nights even I have Prom Princess and Amazon Princess already. I love pink blushes.
And Ripe For Love.
My love for pink, peach, and coral blushes continues.
I'm sure they will be my summer blushes this year.

The powerchrome pencils have awesome staying power! I've heard people say that but I finally got to see it for myself. Also Tropical np is really pretty. I'm excited to wear it this summer!

Went today at store opening to find out they released the collection early! Luckiły they still had 1 ripe for love, and 3 feel my pulse. Bare my soul I swatched but didn't think I needed it because I have SO many shadows and didn't see it as a "look in a quad" for my tone. I tried caliente and omg it was gritty and insanely metallic. The darker glitter gloss was the same way for me. It felt like an exfoliator àlmost lol I ended up with a brush, a fmp, and a ripe for love. I'm so happy I didn't get to buy online this time because I would've been very upset about some of the things I wanted to order....

What do i know? I think this is the loveliest collection since the whole Glamour Daze - Holiday Fabulousness - Guilty Passions Holiday collection last year. I got everything on my list. And - gulp - i'm thinking of going back for more...
Caliente "Super dazzle violet" (Dazzle)
O! M! G! Caliente is absolutely exquisite! It's even more beautiful on my lips than it was in my ‘Neutral 18’ inner arm swatch! (yeah, neutral 18 isn't in the MAC line, but if it was...) On me it's nothing like Oh! Oh! Oh!. Caliente isn't violet, but it is a lovely sheer plum with gorgeous pink-plum-purple glitter - i think i even saw hints of teal. Oh! Oh! Oh! is browner, oranger, much warmer, even thought the base appears to be sheer plum, and while packed with coppery shimmer, it doesn't have the dazzling glitter of these Super Dazzle lipsticks. I'm in love! I think i should get a back up of Caliente! (and retire all these exclamation points!)
Sheer Seduction "Super dazzle bronze" (Dazzle)
This is lovely, but it isn't knocking my socks off the way Caliente does, since i'm not a fan of orange-y lipsticks. On me it's muted orangey copper, rather than bronze, which would be browner. I'd prefer browner, but i like copper, so it's OK. Plus, the Dazzle adds charming pink and plum glitter, so it's worming its way into my heart. I'm very glad to have another Dazzle lipstick. And if you like orange-y colors and shimmer/glitter, you'll love this.
Altered Beige (Lustre)
While MAC describes it as "Creamy yellow beige", it is actually a creamy neutral pink beige. Most nudes pull too orange on me - i have a baggie full of 'em that i can't wear. On pale me Altered Beige is a terrific nude. It neutralizes my rather strongly colored lips, but still delivers a hint of color, so my lips are not the same color as my skin. To wear it well, i need to tone down my rosacea, otherwise my chin is a brighter pink than my lips It goes on smooth and creamy and i don't find it at all drying. I am so happy that i've finally found another nude i can wear, besides my other love, Tropical Mist.
Underdressed "Bronze plum with multidimensional pearls"
This is almost like a gloss version of Sheer Seduction. While not fully opaque, it does provide strong color and massive shimmer, and definitely can be worn alone. It isn't what i'd call bronze - which is browner - however, it is pinker than Sheer Seduction - having a plummy base - while jammed full of muted copper dazzle. On me, this is much better than Restless - which MAC described as "dark burnt bronze", but on me is red-orange, not a good color. Over Sheer Seduction it amps up the glam glitter and shimmer even further. I haven't tried it over Caliente yet. I think it would also work well over Oh! Oh! Oh! if anyone wants to give it more shimmer and flash.
Soft Serenade "Mid-tone neutral pink with pearl"
I didn't get this, but now i'm thinking of going back for it... Ouch!
Temperature Rising Eye Shadow Quad
Performance Art, Swelter, Temperature Rising all work well. They are similar in terms of how light or dark they are, but all are quite different colors - one is warm, one cool, one in-between, and all play nicely together. As for the 4th, very dark e/s, Beauty Marked has very distinct red pearl in the pan, kinda like Raven eye kohl, so i thought maybe i might like it. But the red pearl doesn't translate much onto the eye; definitely not if swiped on, so i patted it on and still didn't get noticeable red shimmer. I used it in my crease and V today, but it just looks off-black. The other colors work nicely and i know i will have fun playing with them. This is only my 2nd MAC Quad, the other is Cutie from the Quite Cute collection - i have skipper's remorse for not getting Call Me Bubbles.
Rich Glance Powerchrome Pencil "Light gold"
Oooooh, this just glides on soooo smoothly, is workable, and then sets up, so that after a few minutes, it wouldn't smudge or budge with my finger or crease after hours of wear. Then it comes off easily with a wet wipe, no need to get out the big guns to scrub it off, as with some smudgeproof creams i've tried. I'm thinking of maybe going back for Copper Strip...
Soft Sand Bronzing Powder "Golden bronze with fine gold pearl"
This is noted as not having great color payoff, but i don't wear bronzer - i just wanted the compact. So i bought this because it's $5 cheaper than the better Pro Longwear Bronzers, and lighter in color. I'm actually wearing it today as a blush, with Perfect Topping as a highlight. Now i need to get that pan out of the compact and slip something a little more comfortable, errr, wearable into it.
Golden Elixir Strobe Liquid
As i've said, i'm not really into bronzer, i work hard to NOT tan, and i don't fake-bake. But i couldn't resist this shiny golden bronze liquid. Today i even dabbed a little along the tops of my cheek bones. I know i will find other ways to play with it. This should be great on anyone who has olive or darker skin.
Caliente "Super dazzle violet" (Dazzle)
O! M! G! Caliente is absolutely exquisite! It's even more beautiful on my lips than it was in my ‘Neutral 18’ inner arm swatch! (yeah, neutral 18 isn't in the MAC line, but if it was...)

So I just got back from a day long trip to the mall (go big or go home!) and my first stop there was MAC this morning. They had sold out of underdressed and FMP, which I figured. What surprised me was that they told me that the first item that they sold out of was one of the nail lacquers. But they had everything else on my list so at the MAC store my haul was rhythm, caliente and ripe for love. At the time, i was pretty much the only one there. Then I went to Nordstrom. The MAC counter was empty since everyone was gravitating to Clinique for the free gift. There I picked up FMP and underdressed to complete my list! very successful day and I am loving the products. At the moment, Caliente is my absolute fave! I personally don't find it gritty at all and man oh man it is just sooooo lovely! Especially in the sun. *swoon!* tempted to pick up another.
