MAC - Alice + Olivia - July 10

[Susanne]

Place all your Alice + Olivia swatches and product photographs in this thread - please ensure that your images are clear, in focus and as colour-accurate as possible! For the sake of clarity, I ask that official product images and swatches (those that you would find on a mailer postcard, sourced from MAC or posted on the official MAC website) are not posted in this thread.

Please remember that Specktra has a posting guideline that all posted images be no wider than 640 pixels or higher than 800 pixels - if your image is any larger than that, please make a text link to the image instead.

bathroom lighting so you can see the sparkles in if it sparkles, but not in pink opal

arm swatches of the pigments (flash light)
left to right: later., partylicious, and if it sparkles...

the strip on the left is swatched "wet" with mixing medium, the one the right is applied dry. top half is on bare skin, bottom half is on NC20 (studio sculpt) foundation

look how sparkly later is! it's actually even MORE sparkly in real life!


more swatches of partylicious pigment.
both applied dry. the one on the left is padded on (no rubbing) the one on the right is blended (i just ran my finger over it a couple of times)

see how it turns more green and shimmery when it's "rubbed in"

It's like if Studded and Black Enough? had a baby...lolz and the baby is Military. Military is a VERY dark grey sparkle-matte-finish.

Morning After Nail Polish.

It's a bit messy, I haven't cleaned up the edges yet.

out of boredom and wonder i decided to see if the a+o pigments were able to be transformed by bases. conclusion: partylicious is a yes, later is a notta, if it sparkles doesn't care(except black) and if it sparkles and pink opal are identical.

partylicious:
bases- none, udpp, hard candy intensif-eye shadow stick in moody, sea me shadestick, ud 24/7 liner in electric, sephora e/l in 085, mac pop blue duo(in next picture i added nyx milk jumbo pencil under)

w/ partylicious(and milk as said b4)

later:
bases- none, udpp, nyx milk jumbo pencil, mac iris eyes fluidline, mac madly magenta ccb, nyx black bean jumbo pencil, mac existential paint, mac lithograph fluidline

w/ later

i forgot to take pictures of just the bases but they go in this order- none, udpp, nyx milk jumbo pencil, nyx black bean jumbo pencil, nyx cottage cheese jumbo pencil
also pink opal is on the bottom half and if it sparkles is on the top. i see no difference!

my arm is around nw25 right now for reference
