Re: MAC - Love that Look Discussion
I am almost out of my Black Russian and I am sooooooo glad that they are releasing it again. Has it been a year? I forgot when these came out the first time. I think Ill buy at least 2 Black russians, this is the liner i wear just about every day. I still have wolf, miss fortune, fly by blu and rave.....but Ive only demolished BR.

Ok, I might have to think about getting Suset B. since I'm unsure about it.

Hmmm... might have to think about this one... I might order it to see for myself if the color has great payoff like S&D and M&S

Re: MAC - Love that Look Discussion
I for one love Smoke & Diamonds. I am really pleased I can stop rationing the one I have as I will be able to pick up another one with this collection.
Strike a Pose looks like an absolute MUST.  Deep blue green? Yes, please.

I have oily skin and every pencil liner smudges on me. Even the UD 24/7 liners. If I wore Zero or Feline, in a couple hours it would either be smudged all over my face, or completely wiped off. Black Russian DOES smudge slightly on me, because of my oily skin, but.....if u dont have oily skin ur good. I still wear black russian everyday....so it cant smudge that much

Re: MAC - Love that Look Discussion
^^^ thanks for the tip, I think I'll get Black Russian with the other stuff I want. I want Black Russian, Smoke and Diamonds, Strike a Pose, and then I'll have to check out the other stuff in person.
Darkishstar, I agree that your new avator looks really pretty.

Re: MAC - Love that Look Discussion
Starflash! Rock on!
I love love love Grand Entrance and Smoke and Diamonds together, with S&D in the crease. Also, I love the Pearlglides I have...Bankroll, Miss Fortune, and Wolf...Wolf is my total favorite. Out of the pearlglides offered this time, so far I'm only interested in Fly by Blu bc my bf likes the color of it
And Unbasic White sounds awesome! Will have to see colors in person like always

What did you not like about them?
Oh, and a few days before this collection was announced I agreed to swap for Stila Diamond'Lil. I know everyone says it's a pretty much exact dupe (S&D is cooler, Diamond'Lil is more brown ?!), but if you had to get/keep one, which one would you choose??

I have both and if I had to choose, it would be smoke and diamonds, hands down. NW20 here.

Re: MAC - Love that Look Discussion
^ I'm not sure. I mean, i dont hate them. I used the Navy colour the other day... but i'm not crazy about them. I dont think the glitter shows at all. And a lot of the colours barely show up on me and I'm so pale!
I got three last year; spare change - its a beautiful colour, but its hardly shows
the navy colour- which shows the most and has the most shimmer or whatever
wolf- which doesn't show on top of any colour i want to wear it with.It's not dark enough imo.
I prefer kohls

Do you want to tell me why you would choose it? 
Everyone says Stila eyeshadows are so buttery, but I have heard the same about the Starflash finish... which one has the better texture to work with?

Re: MAC - Love that Look Discussion
I'll need to add a couple of Pearlglide liners to my list then! The UD 24/7 liners arnt bad but they still tend to smudge in the outer corners. I have very watery eyes so end up looking like a panda after a long night out. Not HOT!
My list so far, is looking like:
Strike a Pose
Smoke & Diamonds
Fashion Groupie
Style Snob
Ego
Black Russian
Rave

Re: MAC - Love that Look Discussion
I bought most of the pearglides and I have loved and used them immensely.
Whenever I went out after work, I would instantly sex up my eyes with my awesome pearlglide liners.
Wish they were releasing new colors

Re: MAC - Love that Look Discussion
Me three! I have to agree with new pearlglide colors as well. I was actually expecting new colors. But was a bit dissapointed to learn that it's gonna be only the repromotes. It' okay (cause i'm gonna get them all anyways), but it'll be BETTER if there are new ones too
