MAC - Suite Array Discussion

[ilovegreen]

I've have visions of the NARS duos.

I hope one side is a shimmer similar to the NARS nightlife e/s

[BunnyBunnyBunny]

The eyeshadow duos sound very interesting. I didn't read alot about them, but I did read all the Pearlglide Liners. My favorite one (from the description) is Wolf, a grey with white glitter. I didn't notice if it said if they are sharpenable or self sharpening (twist up) pencils.

And the shadows were called "Suite eyeshadows" in the colour story. I don't know if that is a new finish or if they are called that because they are duos. =/

Thanks for the information. Wolf sounds really interesting.
So I will wait for this one and not get a normal grey eyeliner.

[Ang9000]

When I picture the e/l's Im seeing UD 24/7 or those GOSH ones. Either way I'll probably pass as there isn't one pencil liner that stays on for me. Duos sound interesting, but quietly hoping I'm not wowed by them

[tripwirechick]

My MA went to update last week and said they are packaged like the brow shaders, so I guess the shadows will be separate.

[damsel]

interesting... hopefully the top is clear though, so we can see what's inside.

I hope so too. And I hope they're the same size as the old large eyeshadows so I'll finally have something to put in my 8-pan palette.

That is disappointing to hear I prefer shadows in round pots.

[panther27]

So I talked to my ma and she said that the shadows finish are like a 'shimmer matte'.They are velvety-like and no chalkiness to these at all!I don't remember the names of the shadows,but there is a blue one and a yellow one.And the pearlglide liners all have glitter in them.This sounds so pretty.I'm so excited.

[VioletB]

OK all y'all who said you might pass on this.. I'd give it a second thought!!

They are absolutely BEAUTIFUL colors with strong color payoff. They come in a little compact that is like the brow shader, and you get more of the lighter color than the darker color. How awesome is that!! The pearlglide liners are TO DIE FOR!! They are so beautiful. They are long wearing, water resistant, smudge resistant and have a transparent sparkle. (No chunky glitter!)

they are packaged just like the brow shaders. the lighter color is the larger of the two, the darker, more intense color is the smaller of the two. this is a new finish.

"this soft, creamy eye shadow is long-wearing and crease resistant. it features a matter base with high levels of pearlized pigments that deliver an intense frosted finish."

think of em like this.

matte=matte2
velvet=eye shadow suite

[VioletB]

LOL can you tell we all went to update today??

these are very soft, like power points. they are safe for contact lens wearers, and CANNOT be used on the waterline.

and f to the y to the i:

wolf is sweet sienna pigment in a kick ass pencil form!!!

[imperfectbeauty]

omg

i was hoping i could skip this but the liners sound incredible as do the shadow duo's. im going to try to hold out and wait to see swatches before i jump to any conclusions but right now all my mind is saying OMG I WANT!! haha!!

i think i need to be realistic though and probably only get a thing or two from this collection because honestly i dont do my makeup every day and some of my stuff lays neglected. lol. if anything i'll get more liners then shadows. im hoping that some of the shadows will be dupable. lol. i need to stop spending so much.

[CantAffordMAC]

I really dislike not being able to put my shadows in a palette. Soooooo I will wait for swatches of these and then make my decision.
