MAC x Archie's Girls (Betty & Veronica) Collection Discussion (February 2013) - Page 332

I just got home for the weekend, and my CP from Yazmin has arrived! I love the look of everything, but I need to spend some time swatching :)

My mum had intercepted the package and nagged at me until I opened it in front of her - "why on earth do you need FOUR blushes???"

I tried to explain that they're different colours, but "they'll last you at least 5 years!!" Oops! If only she knew...

Although she is eyeing up Cream Soda!

SN: I wish I'd tried this Strength lipstick on earlier because I love how it looks on me and feel like I need a BU.  Hopefully, SW will be in a CCO near me at some point this year.

I totally understand how life gets in the way. Don't hang your head, LOL. I'm worse actually....I swatched all my lipsticks but didn't take any pics because I didn't have anything else on and I really feel weird in lipstick without foundation, powder, or something on. I'll try to get some pics this weekend. Glad you're enjoying strong woman, I like it too!

Do you think cream soda is a must have?

Also, if anyone can do a CP for a brush set for me, I'd really appreciate it. Please, Please, Please PM me. TIA.

do a search for my name... someone posted swatches for me.

I don't know if it's a must have, but I really like it!

 

I think my favourite items are the pearlmattes (surprise, surprise!)! They're definitely blushes on my NW10 skin!

Nope! Prom Princess is more magenta and has a silver sheen; Passionately Tempted is a deeper purple with sparkles. I can swatch in a second if you'd like.

Just received by brush set...and while they are cute I'm a little disappointed. While they are super cute, the bristles are already falling out and splayed. They are all in the little plastic sleeves, but it didn't seem to help. Did I get a dud?

They probably won't get returned, but it's a little disappointing to have brand new brushes already all roughed up.

 

Poo...

Can you post a pic? What a disappointment. Sometimes they get better (and softer) after a good washing..

Finally did a swatch of Prom Princess... it is so so so pigmented on me that this blush could easily last 10 years even with daily use ;) ;) ;)

iagree.gif The pearlmattes are really gorgeous and pigmented. They work as blush on me, too.

Okay folks DLG is amazing! I heard it was super close to night blooming and that is fine but I think I'm in love with this formula instead of the mattene. DLG is a must! smiles.gif
