MAC makes so many limited edition colors each year, it's a mad dash to get to their store in order to buy it before it is sold out.  The color "So ceylon" is a rose bronze with golden bronze veining. Those familiar with MSF's know you can choose your veining if you ask an S.A.to see some compacts side by side. I luckily found a compact of So ceylon with a large vein of gold. It is rare, and I love it. MSF's are made as a liquid and then baked, afterwards they are set into your compact. Each one is unique and has it's own design, but the colors are the same. This color works well for light to medium skin tones. Fair skinned girls will have a very hard time getting it to blend. So "Petticoat" is better for you. Darker skin tones would love "Gold deposit". Now onto the brush... Since you need a light hand, you will need a feathery brush for your cheeks. :) MAC does sell a skunk brush, but I have found cheaper brushes that work just as well and are pretty. Sonia Kashuk sells one for under $12 at Target. Just dab at this a little, don't rub your brush across it. You can always add more, but it's harder to take away. Also be aware of putting it over foundation that is not already dusted with loose powder. Because it will stick and not blend. This can be overdone... but it is beautiful if done lightly. The good thing is, you can always test it in store before buying anything.
