MAC By Request discussion - Page 95

That's not me.  I hope she doesn't mind me using her pic though. I thought it looked great on her so I posted it. 

Yes is totally annoying, and I'm worried I won't get the e/s I want (tmoth brown) if it's the same as these last few restocks!
I feel pretty sad about missing moxie...to the point I might resort to evilbay...but I reaaaally don't want to do that if I don't have to.
I am hoping they restock the lipsticks when they put out the e/s but I also don't want to get my hopes up since the mac customer service on phone and the live chat person both said it's not gonna happen!

 

Jete all over lid and below bottom lashes. Painterly as base. Dark Brown Palladio liner with Nars Bali smudged over it.

 

I don't know my skintone in MAC. Guessing NC15-20. In BE I mix Fairly Light with Light. Fairly Light is too chalky and light and Light is a little too yellow. HTH.

I noticed that too!  DD might be slightly warmer but not enough to matter much.

Finally broke down and bought all three lipglasses. I don't remember what my justification was... lol but oh well!

Still waiting for my rocker too ... and for another restock of Moxie that probably won't come.

 

Then, onto the eyeshadows!!

 

My roommates are going to think I've lost it when three different mac packages come to the apartment within two weeks!!!!

Asos is having a 20% off sale right now and you can use the code New20 on the Barry M lipstick in Shocking Pink(Old CYY dupe). They have free shipping too!

THX!!! I was wondering about that! I have and love Diva. Plus Dark Side & Dark Deed - some of my favorite vampy shades!

When I opened my box yesterday, that's what I thought as well.  Diva was my first MAC lipstick because Lisa Nicole Carson (Ally McBeal, Love Jones) wore it and it looked so amazing on her.  She has big hair like me and is the same skintone as I am so I KNEW I was gonna look hot, LOL. It turned a blind first date into a 4 yr relationship so.... #90sflashback

Thanks for posting this! I have the NYX one and it seems to be a tad more purple-pink in your swatch than the new CYY.  Milani Rose Hip looks darn close (maybe a tinge darker) despite the difference in finish.  I wonder if any of the newer WnW pink MegaLasts are close to the original CYY...

Try Dollhouse Pink.

Love the freckles! They're adorable!

What's the Maybelline dupe?  Their Color Sensational lippies have been a win for me lately and they're always on sale somewhere.  Do tell...

Try Dollhouse Pink. 

 

I hope she doesn't mind me using her pic but DHP looks great on her and it reminds me of CYY.

Also, here's how it looks on a darker skin toned woman.

Aww - I live outside of Baltimore and I love the changing of the seasons even though Summer's are brutal here - three H's: hazy, hot humid. I noticed the Hell Passo - too funny.

 

Sometimes Spring segues right into Summer and doesn't abate until October. Then its a mishmash of things until March. When March arrives you can take a deep breath and know that Spring is right around the corner.

Love RUBY - I've gone through 3 of them already! My absolute favorite red!

 

What? The UK is not getting Ruffian?

It's Maybelline Fuchsia Fever. I have the new version of CYY coming today so I'll swatch it against it later :)

Richelle,

 

THX! I've been reading through post & didn't know Rocker was a matte.

 

Just for that aspect, I was gonna get now. Now u said it is perfect for our skin tone. It's mine!

The NYX Mattes don't seem to be as drying as most of the MAC ones (Ruby Woo, etc.) but I still use a lip balm underneath.  If you've tried the WnW MegaLast lipsticks, they are comparable in texture and finish to me.  

Thank you for that! I bought Shocking Pink and Peach (don't have a color like it in my arsenal yet)!  

Someone else has just asked and they were told we are getting Ruffian in October together with By Request and Marilyn. I guess we'll see.

Thx Richelle

 

I agree! I compared Wet N Wild's Smoking Hot Pink next to Moxie. They are in the same color family with Moxie being a smidge more intense. Both have an opaque color payoff and the finish are the same in my opinion. For those interested, check out Smoking Hot Pink -- I got mine for less than $2 at CVS.

I just picked up the NYX Shocking Pink last week and it is gorgeous.

 

My sister made off with some of the other NYX matte pinks because she lost her Quick Sizzle and is trying to dupe it. She even tried to make off with mine. NO GO! I love mattes - I guess I'm a matte ho.

 

Matte pink ho is even better!

 

That's why I love MAC matte creme - to matify my lippies.

 

That stuff is amazing!

 

BTW, is there a dupe for Quick Sizzle in any of the l/s lines out there?

 

THX

LOL

I'm pouting too.  I didn't get it because I don't like the old CYY.  I probably would have liked it.

I just saw a video of someone comparing the WnW Megalasts and she thinks Dollhouse Pink is a dead on dupe for MAC's Pink Friday but Dollhouse Pink paired with MAC's Magenta liner makes CYY.

Thank you!  I actually have that one (I may or may not have all of them except 24 Carrot Gold) but I haven't gotten around to swatching or wearing that one yet.  I think it still has the seal on it. *adds DP to swatch list*

Awesome!  It's so pretty on the different skin tones. 

Great! Looking forward to your swatches.  I need to make sure I didn't already get that one in one of my "I had a bad day" drugstore hauls recently because that name looks familiar. Thanks!
