MAC Enchanted Eve / Magic Of The Night / Irresistibly Charming Holiday Collection (Oct 18, 2015)

[Scorpio69]

Here's a quick selfie of me wearing some of the products from the copper eye/lip bag!  I used the palette on my eyes, and The Right Note on my lips (no gloss). I very lightly lined the edges of my lips with Whirl to give some definition.  My eye look, I used the creamy matte shade as transition, packed the loose gold glitter shade on the inner lid (over glitter glue) and blended the two bottom darker shades into my outer V and outer part of lid. The palette is just okay, but I'll keep it all because I looove the lipstick / gloss combo.  Also the gold glow on my cheeks is Oh Darling!  

You look beautiful, why did I see this,.... Iam going to have to buy this kit and btw we are top twins !(h&m)

I'm so confused by Ascent of Glamour, every pic I've seen, it looks like a brighter blue violet color...on me, it's almost black. Even over a white base, and even looking at it in the pan, it's so dark.

@brumblebee Sorry it took so long to get comparison swatches! Honestly, I don't have anything like it in my collection. It's my first beige, neutral, nude. Most of my nudes are on the pinker side.

Lauren, any ideas of dupes for the lipstick and gloss? Iam in love with them but don't want the liner or palette. Anyone else?

I don't usually like black-based shadows. On me it's a really beautiful medium blue-violet with pink and turquoise shimmer - well, at least for a few hours before it turns bright fuchsia. I was afraid it would look too black, but it doesn't.

Me too. I can't justify spending $60 for one piece I like. I also have no way of seeing it in person (nearest Nordstrom is about 3 hours away), and don't even know if it'll look good on me. I'm keeping an eye out for reasonable ebay listings.

I wish it looked like that on me.

I finally FINALLY found a store that was carrying Oh, Darling.. and when I got there, I was so busy between meetings I didn't notice they gave me Shaft of Gold instead of Oh, Darling..

My heart, broken.

You look stunning. That whole look is soooooo you.

Awww. Bummer. That truly sucks. Check the clearance bin. I am sure some will show up. I have an extra one but I've already promised it to someone else.

I wonder if Mac will restock OD online. I seriously need a backup now and I refuse to pay for it on evilbay. I regret I didn't get an extra now but I didn't think I would like this that much.

I am sure they will but prepared to jump quickly because you will be competing with IG folks.

 

[amillion]

I agree with you. I kinda feel bad for wanting a backup when many folks got nothing. I have been stalking mac's site though.

I think Macy's had a restock yesterday.

Maybe How Tropical (from Veloux a Trois) or Self Aware (Macnificent Me)? I'm hoping Temptalia will be reviewing this at some point

Knowing Mac it will be back in the next 3-4 months under a different name.

I ordered ER and OD they night that they launched on Nordstrom's site (Oct 19) and they finally shipped on the 25th! That's the longest I've every waited for a Nordstrom order to ship and I was holding my breath with all of my fingers crossed the whole time.

Anyway my order should arrive on Thursday and I found out yesterday from my neighbors across the street that people have been stealing mail out of my mailbox!!

So now I'm super worried about ordering things and as soon as I get the delivery notification for my order I'm going to try to leave work to swing by my house and pick it up (I only live about 5 minutes away.) I cannot stand people like that in this world, ugh makes me so frustrated. Anyway sorry for the rant, I hope everyone has been enjoying their new things form this beautiful collection!

I need MAC to repromote Private Party. Its my favorite lip color ever & my kids got hold of it & ruined it on me.
