Salsarose, Azalea, and now Cantaloupe are my FAV pro blushes... check them out!  Although Azalea is very similar to Supernove without the golden sheen. 

I have all those on my list! can't wait till Thursday smiles.gif electric cool and pro blushes. my poor wallet

Same here with Meteoric. I am also finding that I'm reaching for Celestial Kiss for the nudes.

We have some active members or people with family & friends in Colorado & probably a few lurkers.

My thoughts are with anyone who is suffering or somehow touched by this tragedy.
Days like these are reminders that we need to hug and keep our family, friends, children & furbabies a little closer.
Much love to my fellow Specktraettes.

Thank you so much girl. First we get the fire that destroyed tons of homes now this. It's been a bad summer for us. One death was a 6 yr old girl. So sad

I am not sure how rhis is going to appear in the box, but swatch of EL Purple Passion next to Fire Sign for intensity reference. I think these came out around the same time as HC...that's why I haven't noticed them until just now! Dusty O'hunter reviewd them on Youtube.
Sorry about the bad lighting, but just look at those reflects (and that was in the shade of my back porch!) eyelove.gif

 

I wore EL Cosmic Pink today.  It is the Sequin Finish too. I liked the looks of Purple Passion but it looked so fall like and I was in spring/summer mode at the time.  Maybe it is time to revisit it.  I hope they do more colors in this finish.

Are you sure they are LE.  When I bought mine, I was sure to ask about LE status and the SA said they were perm. But then again she said, get the colors you want because you never know.  Hmm.

My new EL lippie will look awesome with Stratus and Earthshine...for fall.

 

I agree it will look fab with those 2 colors.

purplerinne I'm not able to PM you right now but I'm interested. I tried your twitter. If you wanna try me at yahoo.com
post #6848 of 7900
I used magnetic attraction today with a little embark in the outer v. For blush I used light year which gave a nece soft color to my nc 40 skin. I contoured with my hoola bronzer and just added Earthshine right in front of my ear to really define my check bones. I loved the look might post pics up later to show you guys.

Does anyone with fair skin have SuperNova or knows how well it is on fair skin? I should really go to the mac store in town but haven't had time these days and when I do it's too late :(

Starwonder is quite beautiful so i cant really talk you out of it haha.

 

I'm an NC15 to, I think I'll just go with Star Wonder thanks <3

I like supernova and I'm NC15. But you need a light hand with it.

I have been in a fall mood lately with my HC collection. My makeup needs makeup! Trying to figure out how to transition HC so it doesn't fall to the wayside when the next big thing comes out! HC is so verasatile though, and I am just making excuses to buy more makeup!

I promised to share my pro haul so here is a picture of my pro blush palette.

Rhubarb, Azalea (I already had this), Devil

Salsarose, Apple Red, Burnt Pepper

 

700

I also got refills of Bright Sunshine, Bio Green and Kelly and I got water based mixing medium.

These pro blushes are so pigmented I love them!

About the colours I didn't get. Flame Red is really similar to Apple Red, but Apple Red is a bit brighter and cooler, so I didn't get Flame Red. I also swatched Full Fuchsia next to Azalea and again Azalea was a bit brighter and cooler, so I didn't want Full Fuchsia. Cantaloupe didn't do as much for me as these, but it is pretty. I might get it another time. I also skipped Taupe and Clove, because I wasn't looking for contour colours.

 

Sorry this is offtopic, but I thought I should post this here since it was asked in this thread.

Drooling over here!

Like Gracie, I too remember a time when my blushes consisted of Nars Orgasm and whatever else I got as either a free gift or in a face palette! Now I can't stop buying blush and MSF's! I bought a blush and the beauty powder from Hey Sailor, 3 casual Color pots, and all blushes and all MSF's from HC with a backup of LY, and I am still eager to see the blushes and beauty powders in the fall collections!

These are truly gorgeous! Burnt Pepper and Salsa Rose look like heaven to me! eyelove.gif

When I started wearing makeup I was all about eyeshadows and I wasn't really into blush, but now I'm loving blush and my collection blush is getting pretty big.

Salsarose and Burnt Pepper are probably the easiest colours to wear out of these. Burnt Pepper will be great for fall. I hope now that I have Burnt Pepper I can skip Hidden Treasure from Styleseeker.

post #6858 of 7900

I am curious to see how they compare!

I don't have liner on, I guess that is just were my lip creases and makes it look like I have on liner. These are as good as it gets!!

VERY NICE Pinkdollface!  YAY!  I know you'll love them!

Salsarose and Cantaloupe are my 2 favorite PRO blushes as of now.  But there isn't 1 I don't like!  I am going to pick up BP next, probably in the fall. 

Enjoy your new blush babies!

I know just what you mean about not forgetting about old products.  I can't remember the last time I used my Extra Dimension highlighters.  Well, I do remember the last time I used them were right before the HC highlighters came out.  I did the same thing with the Naturally blushes.  I was in love with them until I bought a new Chanel blush and then I moved on to the Tres Cheek blushes.  I think I've been doing good with this collection as far as mixing the blushes from other collections with the HC highlighters.  I think it does help when people post looks they did.  It reminds me to work in other products.

I am definitely know to do the same thing with a lot of my products. I was going through my stash 2 days ago and pulled out Subtle Breeze MB from the Naturally collection. Sometimes I get too wrapped up in new collections and I get forget old favorites. I was going to challenge myself to try and use at least 1/4-1/2 my stash before buying new products so I can get a better sense of what I need or don't need as well.

post #6865 of 7900
Your palette is beautiful pinkdollface! Some day I want to get salsarose, too! I'm in love with the online swatches, but have never worked up the courage to call a pro store and order over the phone (the pacific northwest in the state is Pro-less lol). Very pretty, though! Enjoy your new goodies!
post #6866 of 7900

Went to MAC today just to browse and ended up leaving with nothing new from HC but I did manage to scoop up the last Lightscapade! Lovee it! It's the perfect highlight and literally brightens my face up soo much when just applied to the tops of my cheekbones :-)

I love the fact that it actually had 10g of product, unlike the new HC MSF's. Gah, why?!

I'd really like a chance to build up my collection with the permanent MAC items, such as completing my eyeshadow 15 palette, getting Soft and Gentle and Gold Deposit MSF's, and creating a blush palette, but I feel the need to give first priority to new collections for the sake of limited edition products.

This week I'm planning to go to the closest CCO near me :) I'm super duper excited but trying not to be because I don't want to be let down! I'll just play it casual supacool.gif

I ALSO want to pay a visit to the NYC MAC PRO store when I go up to look at a college! Should be a fun new experience c:

I'm looking forward most to the By Request collection and Electric Cool next. Supernova blush is still tugging at my heart strings though....... le sigh.

SORRY for the huge rant, I just needed to blabber and get my thoughts out type.gif

Hope everyone is having a fantastic Sunday :)

post #6867 of 7900
I'm going to pro on Thursday if anyone wants me to pick up any pro blushes...I'm eyeing that salsa rose!
