MAC Heavenly creature discussion - Page 122

yes, totally agree. it's strange because looking at all the swatches i can also see how it's so very summer as well...

 

did you get anything else from this collection?

I also bought Center of the Universe, Cusp of Dawn, and last night I ordered Strictly Plutonic, so hopefully I will get that tomorrow.

I got a few of my items today and I am so in love with water MES! I'm usually not drawn to that type of color, but something about it was just too beautiful to say no. It looks so gorgeous on! I couldn't stop staring at my eyes all day. Also Ring of Saturn is a MUST! It isn't glittery whatsoever! It gives me that just got back from the beach glow! It looks really natural like I just came in from being out in the sun! I'm kinda iffy about meteoric. It's not as flattering on me as I had hoped. It looks a bit too orange on my lips. I'm going to try it again tomorrow. It's so gorgeous in the tube! I want to love it!

We have to pin her down!

 

I chuckled a bit after reading that. If that's the case, then thank you volcano for erupting. LOL.

 

On another note, my resolve is slowly starting to weaken! I possibly want Earthshine MSF, Stratus MB, and Galaxy Rose CS. Someone, anyone... talk me out of it! 

oh dammit... i just bought Neo Nebula, Magnetic Attraction, and Invincible Light...

....and Young Punk

I am so in... for more than one reason lol

Will power. You NEVER haz it lmao.

 

you may be correct.

 FLAWLESS! My favorite eye combo everr (love my sunset eyes!). You're positively stunning, maneater!!!!

 

That's what I'm trying to tell myself! I CAN DO IT!!!! We can both do it! NO HC Lippies! lol

 

I have well over 100 lipsticks, about half of them are MAC ones. I gotta give love to my existing babies! I am about 2/3 done with my first Flamingo. WOOT! 

 

Just say NO liesierre!!! If you're really tempted to get a similar color, look up Urban Decay's shattered. I promise it delivers in duochromey goodness! 

 

I just do not like dealing with MES. Apply them wet etc etc. UGH. No patience! lol. So if that's why you don't like MES, don't buy it just for the color and get something in a much easier-to-deal-with product!

NOOOO. Urban Decay Shattered instead! Just BU Meteoric and then you'll have something you know you'll love 

 

I may never haz willpower... ....but i will have ALL THE THINGS!

i think I'll just spackle them on with pixie epoxy. i use loose glitter all the time, I'm sure I can handle an MES... I CAN DEW THIS. *justifies*

Woops. My bad. I thought you wanted Sky liesierre. *sigh* lol

 

 

still...I saw you bought MES anyway lol. Magnetic Attraction is a very nice choice. *drools over it*

I've been stalking this collection like a hawk! The only thing that interests me is Light Year MSF but should I save up for the Tom Ford Love Lust blush ($55) or get Light Year MSF ($29) instead? 

 

Btw Allura just released a post on the cremesheen glasses and MES!

I'm still kinda old school (well, i'm old, after all) and use my fingers for many face products (primer, concealer, liquid foundation). I use MAC 188 for most blushes and a fluffy angled eye shadow brush for highlighters - i really want to control exactly where i'm putting it. And a fluffy blush brush for my face powder. But i'm willing to change and expand my repertoire...

 

I'm especially interested in eye brush recommendations - applying, blending, lining, etc.

 

I have all sorts of not super special eye shadow brushes - when i got back into makeup a few years ago after a hiatus i didn't want to sink the big bucks into brushes i might never use. Some are ok, but i'm sure there are better. I mostly use powder shadows, both pressed & loose - i want to try some wet. And i have a few cream shadows.

 

And i'm still looking for a REALLY FINE eye liner brush. I like tight lining, especially on my upper lid. Had a great one i bought in Japan in 1972, but i lost it a couple year ago and haven't found one as good since. I use dry cake, gel/cream, and liquid liners.

Sorry if someone already asked, i guess i'll eventually find the message. There's so much Swirl Party-ing going on in here it's hard to keep up!

The handful of times I've tried to use pixie epoxy my eyelids had this gross sticky feeling like there was fly trap goo on them and I couldn't ignore it lol. 

If you're a fan of Tom Ford, I say go for it, however if you're wanting to look at the amount of product, Light Year gives you 2g more product (10g for MAC MSF versus 8g for TF Blush) and is $26 less.

my plan is that I got 3 MES that i may be able to use as blush or highlight if i dont like using them on my eyeballs.

THAT'S IT I'm getting Sky. I have a check scheduled to clear on Friday so I hope it's still on the website then!

woot. That's what I like to do with Shimmermint MES from Glitter & Ice. Its sheer shimmery goodness is perfect for night's out. 

That's true. I like saving money but I'm sadly a blush fanatic and can't decide if buying a "luxury" brand blush is actually worth the extra $$. Of course it differs by brand but that makes the choice all that more difficult!

First.... I think I need a back-up of Meteoric! It's SO gorgeous!! Also, I need Earthly. Time for a second order I guess!

Second, I wore Magnetic Attraction over Chilled On Ice p/p with Twilight Falls in the crease and Teddy eye kohl as a liner. I loved it! Very pretty combo.

I played a lot with my msf in earthshine today and then richelle gave me the idea of using it as an eyeshadow. Sin ce i liked the look of skybuit was not sure if i would get a swirl with more gold, i decided to make my own version of sky.I used tresure hunt paint pot,odalisque mega metal and the gold part of earthshine (wet).what do u think.is it nice?

Omg! I just got news that I might get a new job! That means more MAC for me lol!

It looks really nice! I have all the products you mentioned so I'll have to try this combo soon

Sounds like a good idea...but now I'm tempted by Neo Nebula, looks like it could be really pretty as an eyeshadow and as a blush maybe *sighs* I'm hopeless.  If I actually got everything that I'm tempted by in this collection, it would be over $300

Love it!!! Glad to see Earthshine is working for you! Have to try this tomorrow.

Just saw allura swatches. Definitely not helping to narrow the list down any.

Don't worry about swatching. Just enjoy your goodies!

 

 

I saw Christine (Temptalia)'s review at youtube. I thought Earthshine would make a beautiful eyeshadow. I liked the lighting in her video.

For the first time since falling for mac and wanting a coll I didn`t order right away. It took me 2 days to decide, T`s swatches helped because is similar to may skintone and i`m familiar with her ways. unfortunately cut a caper sold out. I bought Star wonder msf and I`m still undecided about centre of the universe. From the swatches i`ve seen it could be very similar with nars luster on my skin. I would love one like duckrodeo "drunk swirler" but what are the chances to that? :)

The mes are still a enigma for me, too many, though they look very beautiful
