Re: MAC - To The Beach Discussion

All,

Any takers??

I'm enjoying the 131 brush for ML and am definitely going to use it for the strong colored blushes coming up this fall and winter. I just load up a side with the coral, then pat it on in a wide contour tapering from temple to apple then do one or two swipes across to blend. After, a band of lighter pink above using the other side of the brush - looks perfect.


187 is too huge for my cheeks. 188 is just right for stippling on MBs, but that 131 is definitely my go to for Marine Life and my bright colored cream blush (Florida, I'm looking at you!)

Re: MAC - To The Beach Discussion

I'm not a fan of the #131, I still prefer my #116 for applying blush even when working with the more pigmented ones. I do agree that Marine Life is really bright though, I have to be careful to use a light hand with it, but the color is gorgeous.

I tell you, I have both of the Luster drops. I've had them since Style Warriors.
I'm over halfway through my Pink Rebel, and haven't mmade a dent in the Sun Rush (although it is gorgeous too).
There is just something about the Pink Rebel that looks better on me, even though I normally gravitate toward the warmer colors.

It is perfection mixed with tinted moisturizer, my favorite ....LOVING my it
with my Urban Defense, by Urban Decay, or my liquid foundation.
or just on the cheekbones no matter liquid or powder foundation.

I say get the Pink Rebel

Re: MAC - To The Beach Discussion

So when my TTB order arrived a few weeks ago, my Lazy Day l/s was kinda soft, and I had noticed it was rubbing on the side of the container. I love this color so I bought b/u, hoping also that it would not be so soft. Well it arrived today, and sure enough, there are marks on the side that show it is rubbing slightly. I'm not positive if this is because it's been shipped through all these hot states (I'm in AK though so it's not very hot here), or if it's just very soft. I do remember all my HK lipsticks being very soft too, this is what that reminds me of.

Re: MAC - To The Beach Discussion

Yeah, my HK lippies were pretty soft, too, and that definately wasn't the heat!
I've only THrills from this collection, and that is fine, I even carry it around with me lately all the time, and it has been quite hot during the last days.

Re: pink Rebel lustre drops???

You can use it as a highlight on the top of your cheekbones. Put a drop onto your finger or a brush and dab it on top of your cheekbones and down your nose. You can also use it on your shoulders, chest area.

Re: MAC - To The Beach Discussion

I found a lipstick today that goes really well with Temperature Rising, but it's a bit more orange, and it's metallic. It's by Nouba, nr 178. Nouba's own website doesn't seem to work but I found it here on the web. That picture doesn't do it justice though.
I got it for ~€8 because it was on sale. (And had to rummage through a whole bin of lipsticks, checking the underside of each to find it )

I put it on now that I came home, first filling in my lips with Temperature Rising, and I have a BRIGHT orange-coral pout. It really pops against my tan.

Re: MAC - To The Beach Discussion

So sad.....due to my temporary MIA status, I never got to my MAC store to pick up my goodies until yesterday.....only things that were left from my list were Beach Bronze creame bronzer, R&T eye kohl (even though it's a permanent color, I was a SUCKA for the packaging!) and Easy Lounger l/g......no shadows, no blush, no polish Not even the bag!

I checked online and will get one of the e/s colors (that I really wanted), but I learned my lesson on THIS one.....get THEE to the store IMMEDIATELY after the collection launch......

You can put a few drops in your hand too with lotion for all-over your body.

I haven't used my 131 brush in awhile! The last time I used it is with Merrily MB. I'm so going to purchase the 187 and 188 brushes soon as well as the 130 brush.

I was at my Mac counter today and bought Firecracker. I decided it was a must have after all. I cannot believe I'm still making purchases from this collection

I've been considering doing the exact same thing. After all, they do have everything but ML and Hipness left...

Re: MAC - To The Beach Discussion

I love Firecracker! Paired with Sweet and punchy is amazing! Also with Samoa silk looks really nice...

Till when do counters still be selling things from this collection? I am hoping to get some other things when I go on the 13th I love this collection soo much!

Re: MAC - To The Beach Discussion

This collection came out only 2 weeks ago in Australia and I have been having so much fun playing with my stuff!! I have been complimented by MUA at MAC twice on my look - that never used to happen before I spent time on these boards!

(The first was when I wore flurry of fun over viva glam cyndi l/s - suggested on here several pages back. The second was using firecracker, sand and sun and sweet and punchy similar to Temptalia's look here
MAC To the Beach Makeup: Sweet & Punchy, Sand & Sun, Firecracker

my other highlights are definitely hipness, ML and temperature's rising - so beautiful! Only problem is the freezing Melbourne weather - hopefully these bright colours will add a bit of heat

Re: MAC - To The Beach Discussion

Ok, so I thought I totally got beyond the shimmer overspray, but I can still see shimmer on my face . Looking at the powder, I don't see it, but it's definitely noticeable on my cheeks. I love it anyway, but it makes me go hmmm...

Someone convince me to get Thrills!
How red is it? How fine is the shimmer? Long-lasting? How does it compare to VGV?
