MAC x Archie's Girls (Betty & Veronica) Collection Discussion (February 2013) - Page 282

Alright guys...I need help!

 

I have a Nordstrom gift card that I'm going to use to get more Archie goodies, but I'm torn.

 

Should I get another back up of Daddy's Little Girl (I currently have 2 tubes. One that I've been wearing since I received it, and one backup) or the Caramel Sundae Quad?

 

DLG has quickly become one of my all time favorite lipsticks. I love the color and it is so comfortable on my lips! It definitely is more pink than purple on me so it is super wearable. In fact, I wore it to work today!

 

I'm really interested in Caramel Sundae since I saw Erin's pictures this past weekend (and reading MAC Guy rave about it) Although I really like the colors, they seem like they might be  pretty dupeable. Even though this palette is neutral, it is totally out of my comfort zone. I never wear gold hued shadows and rarely ever wear warm tones in general.

 

What do you think? Should I get another back up of something I love? Or take a risk on a new item that I may or may not like?

 

Thanks for your help!

Okay, my Archie stuff arrived this morning, RIGHT AFTER I was all done getting ready. I marched right to the bathroom, washed my face, and started over. flower.gif I didn't know WHAT to use...it's all so pretty! Unfortunately my camera batteries are dead right now so I don't have any good pictures, but here's Mall Madness (I'm wearing the Caramel Sundae quad and Cream Soda too but this is a bad cell phone pic).

 

 

 

I want a backup....but I have so much gloss! I would be a fool to back it up! Right??? .........

YAY my package came!!!! th_wiggle2.gifclap.gifth_happy1.gif I'm so in love with these products. So far I just have Girl Next Door l/s, Daddy's Little girl l/s and Veronica Blush which is prettier than i thought it would be. I'm N4 (or NC15) and it makes the prettiest light pink blush for me. Now i'm considering getting the flatter me one as well. I do have another package arriving tomorrow and my MAC appointment is on the 7th ahhhhhhhhh 

 

I see you all buying tons of backups for the products you love. I don't really go through lipstick fast enough to 'need' a backup than i thought OMG what if i lost it o.O so NOW i get the whole backup thing!!! So my question is without the exception of loosing a product, how long does it take you to go through an entire lipstick? Normal wear. I am totally considering a backup of DLG because I don't normally like colors like this on me but I LOVEEEEEEEEE this one.

 

I thought GND would look like 1980's cotton candy lipgloss on me girlhaha.gif but it doesn't.

Dang! I missed the launch for nordies. I was hoping to get my first DLG. I wasn't stalking because I was hoping it would restock on the MAC site so I could use Paypal.

Whoops! Guess I waited too long! DLG is now sold out on Nordstrom.

 

I'm going to order Caramel Sundae. I know...I'm living wreckless on the edge trying neutral shadows girlhaha.gif

 

I'll see if I can get another BU of DLG Thursday. If not, no big deal. I'm sure I'll be on to something else by the time I'm done with 2 tubes!

Thank you! I was worried Cream Soda would be way too warm/orange for me, but I'm so glad I got it now because I love it!! I'll try out Prom Princess tomorrow. :)

It looks like they only have the Betty lipsticks up. Did Veronica's already sell out? Or are they just not up yet?

Rose gold Christmas decorations sound lovely santa.gif


Those are beautiful -- maybe worth a MAC break. yes.gif

I would go with the quad. But I have so many lippies that I doubt I'll need a BU anytime soon. Just my 2 cents.

I'd totally go for the DLG backup since it's tried and tested (and loved). I personally think CS is dupeable too. :)

I got everything I think I wanted except for Ronnie Red.  I may or may not hunt it down.  I have enough Reds if I don't.
