MAC and Gareth Pugh Discussion - Page 61

No we dont have CCO but thankyou to a lovely specktra member for pointing me in a few directions to score a few more!

Will be grabbing 2 backups of this colour. I have been using it daily since winter started because its just an amazing powder for my skin tone. I was trying to save it but thought why put it aside when I love it so much

Yay, I just won an Elude on ebay :D

Only £22 including postage! I am excited to try it :)

That's half the price, right? Gorgeous!

It is absolutely perfect for pale NW complexions. If you are anywhere between NW10 and 20, it will look stunning. The soft focus finish is gorgeous as it will even out your skin, but you still have a glow. I really hope that this formula comes out in other shades so that more people can appreciate the technology that is in this product.

I am NW10-15 and it sounds amazing

There's another one ending in 4 days that starts at 99pence! I will definitely bid on it too!

What brush do you like to use to apply it?

I couldn't agree more!!!! Amazing formula and perfect high fashion results with zero effort. There are other nice beauty powders out there, but I haven't tried one that was anywhere near this smooth and perfect. The only thing that comes close for me is the Careblend powder, but it's denser and gives more coverage and less reflectivity.....it's more casual and not quite as easy and foolproof (but close!)

You know what would be awesome? A bronzer in the Elude formula

I have been saving mine for my winter "coat".  Too much tan ATM to match.  In 4 months it will be perfect.

I don't want to ration my BU's, thusI'm hoping for a repromote soon.

Yeh I was rationing because I was trying to make it last, and gave up... I loved it to much and nothing was as good as that on my face with my foundation... I was glad I found those 2 because other places on ebay are selling them for HEAPS and they are all gone in Australia

Same here! In october/november I should be light enough to wear Elude again *___*

I was finally able to get my hands on Elude!!!     

Got it today, didn't try it yet. I just feel like holding and petting it.

Yay! I check on eBay every now and again to see if there's one at a decent price. That, and Strada. Oh, Strada!

Me too.  I still haven't broken the pristine surface.  I did finally try the Marcel Wonders mystery powder and I love it.

I am hoping for a less expensive alternative like a repromote in regular packaging?

did this collex end up at the cco? 

The Orange, CA. CCO had a ton of Eludes and some Stradas plus some eyeshadows and Restrict a couple of months ago. Not sure if any remain tho as I haven't made it back.

There was no 187 in this collection. Do you mean the MW brush by any chance? Or the GP buffer brush?
