I do have the ELF shadow brush though so maybe I will try that for Banshee. Are you applying it while your base is still wet or wait for it to dry? As far as Lustres go though, Banshee's fallout isn't as bad as some!

i actually did it when it was wet

but used it dry at ths store and it was ok too!

I'm still trying very hard to resist All Races and to a lesser extent, Personal Style.

I wonder if All Races will look chalky on me (NC35) though?

Kinda random, but I really love using Naked pigment for highlighting.

 

[dreamer246]

I have the #214 brush, but I don't really like it. Maybe I just don't know how to use it properly. What do you girls use it for?

Some of us had problems with it being off/bad from the get-go, like with 2N way back.

I don't think All Races would be chalky on you.. but it's not shimmery like Vanilla pig by any means (duh, it's a matte LOL). But if you just want a different kind of matte highlight, I really like it! Vanilla pigment is an awesome highlighter too

I lucked out and got a Glamour for All that hadn't gone bad and love using it with Myself l/s! Such a great combo! ...and here I didn't think I was going to pick up anything from this collection - so glad I did!

I use it for undereye lining instead of the #219. It gets closer to the lashes and it makes shadows look like colored pencil.

OMG I think I just found my perfect nude/neutral pink eyeshadow color in Banshee (with Ego layered all over it to brighten up the color). I tried it yesterday, and it's sooooo pretty!

Glad to help!

I did it! I went to get All Races and Personal Style today!

I got tempted to grab Cross Cultural while I was at the counter too, but I managed to resist.

 

[chickatthegym]

^If you have Expresso you don't need Cross-Cultural

They are nearly the same except Cross-Cultural is more pigmented. I have the comparison on my blog

Enjoy the blushes! Can you show a pic of PS on your cheeks if possible? Thanks!

 

[dreamer246]

Ok I'll try to.

I was comparing the color of Personal Style and Emote last night, and in the the pan they looked almost similar, except that PS has more pink to it.

I'm trying to be very selective on my MAC purchases lately

I just have way to much and I don't even get to use my haul before getting excited about what is next

So from this collection I only got three things:-

1- By Candlelight MSF: Love it, the best pink highlighter for my skin tone and taste

2- Modelette E/S: Maybe boring but I've been using it a lot since I got it ... A great color to put between the dark color in the crease and the light color under the brow bone. I can see myself hitting the pan for a change

.

3- Cuddle S/S: I don't know why it's not getting a lot of love ... I love it

I used it as a base all over my eye and used my HG natural E/S and the effect was WOW ... I also used it in the tear duct and under the brow bone for a great highlight color

i know what you mean, i think that is why i am not excited about the summer collections that much right now!

 

[bgajon]

Finally this collection arrived to my neck of the woods aaand I got NOTHING

Yes ladies, I went, I saw and I conquered the need to buy something. The collection didn't make me go I must buy not even Banshee which I thought I had to have.
And the pigments are just a punch to the stomach to see how tiny they are.

Soooo yes, I now have more money to spend on Spring Colour Forecast because I was such a good girl this time (if you don't count that I bought the 130 brush and the new mineralize foundation)

Ops, I just noticed that I posted this in the wrong thread

LOL I feel stupid

 

[Hypathya]

So this collection finally arrived!!

Bianca is soo right!!! Those pigments are annoying, the packaging is sooo cheap!! Is simply a punch in the stomach!!

The cherry of the pie was the MA's assurance of that not being the actual size of pigments from now. "It's just the pigments from THIS collection"

I was sooo ANGRY I didn't bother to ask for the price and walked out the store with only my new brush!!

I was soo tempted to walk out with nothing but since the brush is LE here and that was the only one left, I caved.
