I got my order from MAC this morning and it's looking pretty good so far!
I got:
Brush cleanser- I have to admit that this isn't strictly necessary for me, I usually just use shampoo, but after watching the makeup literally melt off my brushes with this, I'm impressed.
Elite shadow- this is a gorgeous summer bronze but very very warm. It does have some orange tones in it which I can pull off, but it's definitely nowhere close to neutral.
TLC in aquamelon- this isn't a coral or melon shade really, it's more of a warm muted reddish color to my eye. There are sparkles in it. Looks like a kicked up neutral. Just to let everyone know, the pics on MUA do not look *anything* like the product IRL. It's not nearly that bright or orangey looking.
Dewy Jube lipgelee- Just like clinique's juicy apple but with a delish vanilla scent instead of the nasty plastic odor. I've been searching for this for a long time. It's a clear bright red with no shimmer.
Lu-be-lu lipgelee- actually has tons of pigment...it's a mauvey bright pink on me, cool toned and no shimmer. The formula of these is not sticky at all, but still thick and feels very moisturising.

Nice haul, I too love the MAC Brush cleanser.
A question about the Dewy Tube lip gelee. Is there any pink in the red?
Enjoy your new goodies http://community.icompact.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_smile.gif

I would say that there is...it's very very sheer, it just provides a glaze over the lips and the red is definitely red, but with the sheerness I can detect some deep pink tones.

Enjoy your new goods! http://community.icompact.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

thanks silverchick,
I have no MAC counter nearby and probably visit one at the end of the year, but that's okee I have enough lipbalm as it is. I do have 2 TLC's: gentle coral and soothing beige, and the TLC-stick in rose remedy.
