Re: MAC - Style Warriors Discussion

erine... I apologize right now if this was asked already.... and to anyone else who has seen upcoming collections

but is there a huge difference (besides the texture of frost versus satin) for Buckwheat from Naked Honey and Night Maneuvers?

I guess I'll have to play with it a bit to figure it out.
You don't even need the mixing medium. Plain ol' H2O should do. I put a tiny solar bit lump into the lid, crush it & then I spritz some water (I'm sure Fix+ would do a decent job as well) on the brush, to make it damp. The crushed product nicely adheres to the damp brush & I put it on the eyelid which is preped with either a pp or a ss base (basically anything creamy and sticky will do) and voila - solar bits are stuck to my eyelid as glue. NO fallout whatsoever. I'm not kidding. Once you get the hang of it, I'm sure you'll enjoy and appreciate the complexity and gorgeousness of solar bits.

I LOVE Black Ore to death and I look forward to seeing some swatches of Imassioned sb (there is already a photo & a review on MUA if anybody'd like to check it out). Apart from Imassioned, my only interest so far lies in Bright Future. Of course, that's bound to change once the lovely swatches and reviews start pouring in and creating unnecessary lemmings

Re: MAC - Style Warriors Discussion

Erine, is Soft Force as yellow as Gold Dusk pigment, or does it have more white? Does it compare to anything we have seen before? And I know you said Night Maneuvers is close to Magnetic Fields in color, but is the difference in texture make it worth buying? Bright Future and Vibrant Grape are no brainers for me, but I am on the fence about the other 2 eyeshadows. I think after reading the review on cosmetasaur, I will be passing on On a Mission. The only other thing that is tempting me besides the polishes in Liberated l/g. So, Erin, if I have Instant Gold and Elaborate l/g, is Liberated different enough to warrant owning? How about if I end up buying Goldyrocks? What are you wanting from this collection?

its not as yellow as gold dusk. its actually more cream with a hint of pink on my skin, like if you mixed rose blanc and naked lunch. gold dusk is more yellow for sure.

but they aren't close in color on paper maybe, but not swatched on the skin. the WN for NM is dark edge, so definately picture that but with the subtle sparkle. they are different enough to own both.

instant gold has nothing on liberated. i vaguely remember it from update, but what i do remember is a yellow gloss, and its nothing like instant gold. i don't remember what elaborate looks like, so i'm no help there. goldyrocks might be close, but i can't be sure. the glitter in goldyrocks definately makes it different tho.

sorry i'm no help on the gloss.

Awesome. I love Rose Blanc and don't have naked lunch so it sounds like this one should stay on my list.

Sorry, I have no idea where I got that then. I am glad to hear that it's different from Magnetic Fields. So it's different enough from Dark Edge to own? Cause I already have that one.

You were definately a help! I am going to keep this one on the list too Thanks so much for your always helpful, prompt replies. Makes planning and shopping so much easier

What are you most excited for Erin?

that's ok. i think i might have said that after swatching them in my book, but when i just reswatched them on my skin, NM was nothing like MF. one reason paper swatches aren't 100% reliable.

i'm excited for BF, vibrant grape, NM, tribalist, pink rebel, scatterrays and bronzescape (all of which i now have), on a mission, sun rush impassioned SBs and the bags (which i will get as soon as they come out).

so in answer to your question, the whole collection!

Hmm guess I'll be passing Liberated now lolz Thank gosh I got Goldyrocks

Im planning to get a print for both products...if that made any sense lolz. So for lipsticks (one leopard, one zebra) etc.etc. I think that's the only way to make me stop from buying the whole damn collection lolz!!

Tribalist? Really? I have never known you to be anything but a nude lip kinda girl I love the looks of Tribalist, but I know I would never wear it.

My MA confirmed that this will launch on 5/20 as part of the Nordstrom half yearly sale. Not sure about other locations. I remember reading it was at the very end of May, so either they bumped the date everywhere, or it's only Nordstrom. Not sure.

Please forgive me, I don't know too much...and I really tried searching through threads for an answer for about an hour...lol, but- how do you get an invite to a launch party? Can I just call my store and ask for one to be sent to me or is it exclusive to certain people?

They just send you an invite in the mail,if you're lucky enough to get one. This is my first. It wouldn't hurt to call your mac to see if they are having a launch party and if you can sign up for it.

Do any UK girls know if the bags will be released at the same time as the collection here, or will they be released a little later?

Re: MAC - Style Warriors Discussion

dark edge as the working name totally makes sense, I'd never really thought how similar they are but I have the 2 of them next to each other in my 'dark browns' palette that's organised from lightest to darkest

audrey I just took some pics, they might be helpful, they might not! the golds were hard to get pics on my paley skin but I tried

top-bottom: mineral, night manoeuvres, dark edge, magnetic fields



L-R: gold dusk, magic dust, soft force, rose blanc, spring up, dreammaker

Ok, now I want Soft Force too! I'm also tempted by Liberated l/g but lipsticks and gloss with yellow undertone don't look good on my lips so I wonder if a golden yellow one would (doubting it).

So my store still says that this collection is out here on the 21st. I will be in B.C then Does anyone from B.C (BlindPassion, Yushimi,...) know when the collection is realsed there? Also, is there a Pro Store in Vancouver?

are they not releasing at the same time? I thought everyone is getting it released on the 21st? I'll ask my MA today when I get the chance to confirm. And yes, we have one Pro store here. It's in downtown
