MAC for Chen Man Collection Discussion

[VampOwl]

I might take one MES, but that's probably it. I already have PiP b/p and as there are no MSF, it will be a very small haul for me.

How is PiP beauty powder- do you use it as a highlight or an all over glow? I'm NW-10/15 and am debating getting either Too Chic or PiP.

I use it for all over glow, but I am pale like the undead (About NC 15 in the winter). I am backing that sucker up, though. PiP is one of my favorite BP...

Agreed, I'll get a BU for sure...

I use it both, for highlighter or as an all-over glow - depending on my mood. I'm NW15/20.

I would even back it up but as MAC seems to repromote items from last year's collection already, I don't see the need to BU quite yet. Yes, and this is coming from me, the BU King of all MAC products.

I love PiP, the texture is really lovely. I'm NW 10-15 too and I only use it as a highlight. Don't think I would wear it all over but I've never tried.

Thanks for all of your input! Now I definitely plan on picking it up

I was going through my stash and realized I already have Reflects Blue Glitter in the 7.5g jar. Lol,
They sure do a lot of re-releases.

 

[GlamQueen21]

^Me too! I have Reflects Blue and it's so pretty!! I will have to use that with Love Cycle MES when this collection launches.

Reflects Blue is a pretty cool product and I'm glad to see it as part of a collection rather than just being available to Pros.

I'm glad this is such a small collection. I'm only interested in Pink Union mes at the moment. Need to see swatches first though.

 

[pemily]

i wanted the black glitter mac once did just refined
I seriously cannot think of anything cooler than black glitter!!


also, has anyone else noted products are ....... in lipstick and lipglass
does that mean there will be lipsticks with actual matching lipglass'
thats kind of cool!

 

[missah]

I'm more excited about this collection than I am about the S3/C3 collection actually... Love the yin yang design=D

I think I will BU on PiP and then maybe get Waveline FL. Nothing else really appeals to me either. The MES with the cute designs will be wasted on me if they are bright colors, I like my MES neutrals.

ohh looks like budding love lipstick will be a lavender shade

 

[OctoberViolet]

I. LOVE. LAVENDER. LIPSTICKS!!!!!!!!!

I may have to buy a bu if the swatches are as good as I envision them to be. Hoping it isn't too light or sheer. I would love for MAC to make a lavender shade in the new matte formula. That would just rock my boat.

i think it says its a lustre finish

 

[OctoberViolet]

Awww. No way. Lustre finish?! Why MAC why??????

I'll still end up buying it though. I can't say no to anything purple unless it's really bad.

Flamingo is a lustre too, remember.....

Lustres are usually way better now than they were a few years ago - much more pigmented and not as drying. I wouldn't worry too much about it! It'll be pretty, I'm sure!

 

[Richelle83]

These are from the ebay listing posted a few pages back.

Budding Love lipglass-looks kinda like Narcissus but maybe more pink?



Force of Love(matte) looks umm familiar!

 

[OctoberViolet]

That is very true liba! I must admit that I had some doubts with Flamingo due to the lustre finish. Lustres usually dry out my lips bad, but with Flamingo I've been doing pretty good & the color payoff is amazing. There is one lipstick (I have to check my stash) that is a lustre (old school lustre) and it drys and chaps my lips so bad. I really should throw out the lipstick, but... I'm such a lipstick whore I just figure if it sits there long enough eventually when I wear it again it won't dry out my lips...lol.
