I´m most excited for the eyeshadow and the skinfinish from the extra dimension collection, because I´m interested in the formula.

Definitely Whisper of Gilt, I have yet to find a highlighter that fits me (NC-42) and I have a good feeling about that one.

I love the new MAC collections! I’m most excited for Whisper of Gilt, because I bought Superb and love it! A backup of Modern Mandarin and Havana would be nice as well 😉

MAC Whisper of Gilt Extra Dimension Skinfinish!! I’d hate the destroy it’s gorgeous pattern but goodness I would probably make this my daily highlighter.

Whisper of Gilt. Modern Mandarin looks very pretty and I know tangerine blush shades are the hot big thing now but I always worry that orange will bring out the yellow undertones in my Meditteranean skin.

I love, love, love Whisper of Gilt – – what a pretty pale gold shimmer for the tops of the cheeks! But this trio of products, just screams sumemr, beachy gorgeousness! Just slick on some peachy gloss and it is a beautiful summer look!

I’m most curious about the Modern Mandarin blush. I’m quite new to blush or face makeup in general, and I know tangerine is hot this season!

I’m so fair skinned and can’t envision myself wearing orange make up but some of the orange colors I’m seeing are absolutely gorgeous. I think the product I’m most excited about is the MAC Modern Mandarin Blush. How gorgeous! Thanks for another fabulous giveaway. Good luck to all!

I have ordered the modern Mandarin and I am extremely into the orangish blushes. Im excited that its an orangish coral because I have an orange and I have a coral.. Now the mix is what im missing.

DEFINITELY looking forward to Modern Mandarin, but since I don’t usually wear metallics, I’d love to experiment with the other two products!

Hi!
I’m most excited for the “Modern Mandarin” Blush, because I don’t own a MAC Blush. I am 14 years old and I like to collect makeup (mostly high-end). Where I live, its pretty expensive compared to the US prices, that’s why I don’t own a MAC blush yet.
I think the color is very interesting, and I think it would suit my skin color well, because i have a lot of redness and a pink blush may just emphasize it, while this orange/coral blush will give my skin color just a healthy look (in the summer on tanned skin!! wow that would look amaaaaaazing).
Anyways, i LOVE temptalia! It’s almost like going into a real makeup store, because the swatches and descriptions are so well done!

Keepi it up 🙂

I would love to win Modern Mandarin!!! I’m a kindergarten teacher who has had several paycuts in the past couple of years, and I’m not going to be able to make my usual purchases from each collection. This is the one item I would love the most!!!!! As a red hair, blue eyed girl, this color would look great, and I’d be excited leaving the house wearing it 😀

I’m most excited for Modern Mandarin. Even though I’m only NC15, I absolutely adore orange-y blushes and have thankfully learned to use a light hand with the pigmented ones.

So excited for modern Mandarin! I don’t have a bright orange brush and I really want to rock a bright orange lip and orange tinted cheeks with a natural eye and winged liner! Ahh make up! <3

It’s a close tie between Havana and whisper of gilt. Then again the modern mandarin looks similar to the sephora and pantone tangerine collab and that looks pretty awesome too!

MAC Whisper of Gilt Extra Dimension Skinfinish… I’ve never owned a skinfishish but I’ve tested them and I love the texture.

Modern Manderine, because I love coraly-peaches like that, but I don’t really buy blush a lot! Usually more of an eyeshadow person…

I’m so excited for the mac blushes to come out! i’ve been following all the blogs talking about them and i have absolutely no blushes from mac so ive been really hoping i’d be able to get these. So, of course, i’m most excited about the mac manderin blush! i have nothing like it (of my 2 blushes!!) and it would be so exciting to win! i’ve also heard many amazing things about the “Dimension” collection. Thanks for offering such amazing prizes!! keeping my fingers crossed!

As a makeup artist, I’m excited about Modern Manderin because I love the way orange pigment warms up olive and yellow skin tones. This shade will be dramatic enough for editorial shoots.
