MAC Heavenly creature discussion - Page 239

IloveMup - thanks for the tip about CotU. I USED to collect msfs but I have so many that don't get used - its a shame! I have some coral-bronze ones but I've been using Sunny By Nature as a bronzer - a lot - and So Ceylon - other brown, bronzy ones are suffering! Need to rotate!

 

I want to see/try that! What base did u use? how did u hook it up?

Hrmmmmm free 2day ship.... Perhaps I need some more product?

Today I wore Earthshine as a blush and I love it! I wish I had another one with more of the burgundy though... I also used Astral and

This collection is soo pretty!

So Ceylon is lovely! I need to use mine more

What do you have in mind?

just a heads up if anyone missed out on Supernova i have a brand new one posted in my sale.

I NEED WATER AND EARTHLY.

THAT IS ALL.

 

Wow - I just checked the MAC US website and Earthshine is sold out. That just leaves CotU and Star Wonder.

Well I still have not pulled the trigger on Firesign and Meteoric but I think the code ended last night...

I still need ring of Saturn, solar ray, aurora, and neo nebula or universal appeal. My wallet needs some more time lol.

While moseying @ Nordies I noticed they had LY msf in stock.

 

So I purchased it.

 

I was going to use my Nordstrom's note but I decided to hang on to it for a while.

 

I wonder if it is really in stock or will I get an order cancellation???

 

Hmmmmm. We'll see!

 

Fire sign and Meteoric are gorgeous! Yeah the code ended last night :(

All of the MSFs were in stock when I checked the website a few minutes ago.

Re-stocking is good! That means folks can buy more!

 

The only thing that is still sold out is Supernova blush.

 

I see none of the lipsticks have sold out.

 

I didn't purchase any because I don't like the finishes.

 

My favs. are Satins, Mattes, Mattenes, Amplified, and Pro Longwear.

 

Not a fan of Frosts, Lustres, Cremesheens, and glossy l/s in general.

 

No one is giving the Volcanic Ash any love.

 

I used it for the 3rd time last night and I swear it is the best scrub I have ever used!

 

I can't get enough of it!

I got a sample of it. But I honestly didn't think it was worth the money. It all depends on your skin and if you are prone to breakouts. I felt it was something I can replace with another scrub. Not gonna lie it felt nice but it didn't convince me.

Magenta,

 

So sorry to hear that.

 

I thought the price point was a bit steep but when I tried it - whoo whee!

 

That was the quickest $28.00 turn-a-round ever!

 

My sister likes it so much she backed it up!

Wow, it's a good product but I guess i rather spend the money on the makeup than the skincare lol.

Here are my pics using Earthshine as an eyeshadow.

 

I wore the gold in the lid the burgundy in the crease and mystery in the outer v.

I wore light year as a blush. I really like the look. It can be used for everyday.

 

 

 

These were taken with my ipad so the colors are kind of washed out ;(, but hopefully you get a general idea.

Makeup is good but skincare is better!

 

As I have gotten older my skin has changed and it can't handle just any old routine, i.e. wash with dove soap and slap any old moisturizer on it and go.

 

I have a routine in place and it makes a difference.

 

My skin looks good under my m/u and I find that I need less of it.

 

All I want now is a Clarisonic and I'm saving for one of those.

 

It may go on my Christmas list but I want the new Coach Legacy Duffle or Madison.

 

Everything I want is expensive! :-)

Magenta,

 

Thanks for posting!!! I love that look. Your skin looks good - you are young though!

 

Take care of it now and you will reap rewards later!

Magenta,

 

Tell me about your lashes! What mascara are you wearing?

 

Light Year looks amazing!

 

 

I never got around to trying the VAE .. I fear it to be a bit too harsh for my dry, sensitive skin

Might still ask a sample of it next time i visit the store, i still remain curious about this product :)

Helloooo Ladies!! I haven't really been on here since my sister and and a ton of kids came to visit and vacation with us.... anyways I wanted to share with you guys that I finally caved in and got Magnetic Attraction and I am glad I did, I got to pick my own swirl and I picked one with less of the gold and I am in love!! I also got a backup for my Stratus since my sister decided to take my original backup oh and I wanted to share my new pride and joy I know its not MAC but I love it so much I had to take a pic of it accompanied by my beautiful swirls!!

 

 

 

It is always good to take care of our skin. The biggest problem I have is that I have sensitive skin and not everything works for me. It's almost as if the less I do the better because when I do too much I break out. I can never imagine using a clarisonic on my skin lol. But there is something out there for everyone. Wait to get the Mia when sephora has their friends and family sale in November.

Mascara- I've been using the tarte Amazonian clay, the wood tube
And my all time favorite for 6 years... Avon super extend mascara. Avon actually makes really good mascaras by the way. Gave a tube to my mom and she said that the ladies at work thought she had lash extensions. Really recommend it.

It's a good ides to get a sample. I too have sensitive skin and it didn't completely work for me. It's not a bad product though you should try it see how you like it. I'm curious why ppl haven't given it any love too.

You know I got this and it just didn't work for me, I think that because I am in FL right now my pores are clogging much more easily and I was breaking out so I got the VAE soon as it came out but it just didn't clean my face good enough so I decided to try Origins modern friction because some one on this thread recommended it and wow! It is amazing, my face feels so clean and no more breakouts! I am saving the VAE for when I am back up north in the cold I think it would work just fine as a daily cleanser I just don't think its strong enough to be a deep exfoliator.

Love it!

I LOVE that color for eyeshadow. It's soo pretty.

That's funny they do have similar shaped swirls. Didn't even notice lol.

I ordered my back up of light year from the nordstrom site, so your order is probably safe

 

 

It is crazy how differently products swatch based on the swirls you get.

 

 

The colors they swatch.

They're a bit darker in real life and more intense (flash washed out the color)

 

but as you can see, the left is such a beautiful cherry/berry color (with predominantly purple sparkle which you can't really see). The right one is this coppery/rusty orange with gold as the predominant sparkle!! crazy!

WOOWWW!! This definitely makes me wanna go get another they are beautiful!
