I'm really happy with how Boca looks here! I'm happy that it is actually pink. I was a little bummed when Oxblood didn't have as much pink in it as I was expecting, and I want a nice new soft nude-pink shade.
I feel the exact same about oxblood and I'm also looking for a nude pink. They're kind of hard to find! I like Ts swatch of Boca as a result. Wait and see!!

I don't own a lot of reds or nude colors so this collection is perfect for me! Acai is also so lovely and I can see myself wearing it a lot in the summer.

I'm weird, with MAC I now only buy le lipsticks because of the cause/celeb/packaging. Of course I have to actually like the color but first choice is matte because they have that down. I have to really want something from a collection and like the color to mess around with other finishes. I'll get a le lipglass but I've been trying to do more lipsticks because I wore only glosses for many years, and a million nudes. I use other brands (drugstore, specialty) for glossy/satin/creams/amplified lipsticks, glosses and lip pencils. In the 90's and early 2000's I was a MAC fanatic then I started branching out...I do have some lipglasses from the perm line that I like to revisit for nostalgic reasons (Lovechild!) And Format blush, embark shadow, fix+, studio fix are staples. All this to say () the only color I'd likely get from this is Açai since I just noticed that the other two are satin.

Matte formula is honestly my favorite finish. Lustre is second favorite, I just enjoy the staying power. *3* I really enjoy how BOCA looks in Julia's swatches, so I'm willing to see if I enjoy the finish. I need to build more nudes in my collection. Working with kids though I'm unable to wear my lipsticks all day :( so a lot of tubes don't see the light of day.

Until Toledo came out I wasn't really too interested in LE packaging.

Hmmm, FR and Acai look identical to me in these comparisons. This definitely leans me a lot more towards the skip. I also own Rebel and if darkening it (and FR) up is as simple as wearing on of the awesome new Pencilled In liners, I'd rather just do that.
