Goin' to get MAC Electroflash, Sonic Chic, and New View Swatches!

I’ll be headin’ out in about an hour to check out Electroflash, Sonic Chic, and New View. I’ll be grabbing swatches (but of course), and I have a feeling I will end up with more than I intended. Here’s what I want from you before I head out: tell me what you’d like me to compare things to (obviously, permanent items would be ideal!), so I can try to do that in-store with colors I don’t own at home. 🙂

And… GO!

We appreciate enthusiasm for new releases but ask readers to please hold questions regarding if/when a review will be posted as we can't commit to or guarantee product reviews. We don't want to set expectations and then disappoint readers as even products that are swatched don't always end up being reviewed due to time constraints and changes in priorities! Thank you for understanding!

I am so excited, I just got back from MAC and I have some of the new stuff. LOL And I am loving the Fast Thrill.

The sad thing, I still have to go back because there were a couple of things I forgot that I NEEDED. LOL

Can you compare the see sky with the blue flam? I believe they are quite similar. but the electroflash is not available here. That would be very helpful if I can find out their differences before it released. Thanks a lot.
