Re: Heatherette for MAC Discussion
I mainly bought a good amount of stuff for the packaging but I loved the colours. I would not have bought the trios really because the colours weren't calling out to me but I got one as a birthday present.

Re: Heatherette for MAC Discussion
I loved the packaging of the heatherette trios, but I knew the colors were dupe-able, and I restrained myself from buying them... I dont really regret it, I know that I have more money for new and better product, instead of three e/s I wasnt going to really use.

Re: MAC - Heatherette for MAC Discussion
We didn't get the Beauty Powders at my location so I wasn't able to test it on darker skins. I am NW20 and it goes on my skin very peachy pink and a bit pale, so I don't know if it would look good or ashy on a deeper complexion. Some counters/stores still have them left if you're able to go check it out.

I'm NC35 (in the summer) and I bought Alpha Girl. It's a peachy pink on me and it's my go to blush for more natural looks. I love it.

No its not that dark like it is in the pic. Its lighter and it will show up on NC35/40 skin as a light pink peachy color. It gives a soft glow. Whereas, smooth harmony gave a bronzey warm glow.

Alpha Girl is my favourite blush, mainly because it doesn't show up too much on my NW20 skin. (I like a very natural look and I already have pink cheeks.)
According to my monitor, Alpha Girl is a bit lighter than what I see in your picture.

Re: MAC - Heatherette for MAC Discussion
Alpha Girl never came here.  When Heatherette was launched here on 10 July, Alpha Girl was not in the shipment. The MA said it was already sold out worldwide. Smooth Harmony was available but was sold out very quickly. I didn't get it because I have enough of bronzy colours.
But I managed to buy Trio 1, Dual Edge Eye Pencil in Nighthawk/Front Row and Black Funk/Pop Blue, Lollipop Loving, Starlet Kiss, Pink Pearl and Reflects Gold.   So happy that this collection did launch here after all. I love the packaging too! I've uploaded some pictures in the swatches. I like everything except that Black Funk and Nighthawk smudge like crazy on me.

The eyeliners smudged like crazy on me too, but I kept the purple one because it makes my eyes pop. I really love this collection too....I use some of it like everyday, which is more than I can say for any other collection

Re: MAC - Heatherette for MAC Discussion
I have a question that may be rather out of place but not at the same time @_@
I received a Heatherette Coloring Book Postcard thing with mini Heatherette Colored Pencils in a swap a few weeks ago. XD I forgot what I even swapped it for, and I'm a huge collector but then my sister got me a bunch of the postcards.
Do you know how much these would go for? I haven't seen any online for sale... and I figured someone would definitely enjoy it more than me.
Help? Lol

Re: MAC - Heatherette for MAC Discussion
That's an interesting question. I have that also and wondered the same thing.
