Dearcup cake is such a BLUSH color!!! i can use any one of my coral blushes as e/s....if the finish is veluxe pearl...then i wud not be able to stop myself frm buying!!!

It's a satin finish, Samaya!

i'll probably get sugarshot...even though it reminds me of a less glittery filament. but filament is one of my fav's so why not.

Christine- when does this collection come out? I am very excited for sugarshot..what would be a close color to that? maybe vanilla?

mm.. is Sugarshot definitely a lustre? Is it a bad lustre with large fall-out qualities? Or is it like the better lustres such as Pandamonium?.

I'm pretty sure it's a lustre. It's not the worst lustre I've tried, but I used it today and there was definitely some fall out!

are any of the lipsticks gunna be permenent ? or are they all LE ?!

All LE from what I know!

if sugar shot was applied a bit heavier do you think it would be good to put on the inner corners of the eyes? i was thinking of purchasing something from the perm.line such as crystal avalanche but once i saw sugarshot. it was too pretty!

how do you get these products early???

oh I like refined MSF and sugarshot!

How do you think sugarshot compares to other shadows from the MAC perm line? I like it but I'm trying to convince myself otherwise. It sort of looks like shroom to me, and I hardly use that one to begin with. What do you think?

It doesn't seem overly original -- Nylon, Dazzlelight... it's like a shimmery highlighter color to me, LOL.

I agree that if dear cupcake is a blush colour, I would be all over it! And I really like the msf and sugarshot xD

Refined looks nice but slightly light. Now I am tempted haha

It's pretty light -- it doesn't give me any color, just shimmer!

Sugarshot looks a lot like Dazzlelight, if I'm not mistaken.

Is retrospeck a good dupe for sugarshot? Thanks

Nah, I'd say maybe Nylon or Dazzlelight...

what finishes are the e/s?? Thanks for posting the swatches....

Sorry, I don't know :(

I'm liking the eyeshadows & the msf. Thanks for the scoop Christine! The perfect way to end a Sunday!

No problem :) I wish the MSF was more pigmented.

Refined is so light, I thought it would be totally different. :( Many thanks for those swatches! :)

thanks! you thing the mfs will be too shimmery?

Refined isn't too shimmery at all!

Hmmm, I thought Refined MSF would be more of a pinky beige in which case I'd be all over it. I wish they made a blush the color of Dear Cupcake and that the lipglosses had more pigmentation. I'll have to wait and see on this collection. Thanks for the swatches!

lol I thought the same about "dear cupcake" desirous blush looks similar

It's pretty much beige/nude, LOL.

Saint Germain looks kinda scary and Consume Me looks like clear gloss:-( Based on the swatches the only items that are drawing me in are the shadows and the MSFs.

Saint Germain IS bright and I can definitely consider it harder to pull off!

please swatch the msf! :D

Sugarshot & Refined MSF look gorgeous! Dear Cupcake is pretty too... I really hate the color of that Saint Germain lipstick though. I don't think that kind of color looks good on anyone!

LOL! It's funny, Saint Germain is a love/hate color for a lot of people!

omg dear cupcake is such a cute pink!!! I think I only like the eye shadows so far from this collection...

Will you be getting them all, Sanny?

Thanks once again for great swatches! I will have to pass on St. Germain because it's going to look crazy on my NC45 skintone! But I do like Sugarshot and Dear Cupcake. Looking forward to seeing more swatches!

No problem, Tamara! :)

Such gorgeous MSF! Really like the eyeshadows too, but not the lipstick or the lipgloss.

Think you'll be hauling a lot from Sugarsweet, Anitacska?

Thanks for the swatches. May pass on this collection so I can save for grand duos and style warriors!
