MAC - MAC Me Over Discussion

[berryjuicy]

I hate to send things back, but Outre is a huge disappointment to me. I am wearing it on my lid over painterly in an attempt to get some kind of something out of it, but it's just not happening. No time to redo so I hate my eye makeup today. I tried covering it up with a couple other shadows and it just looks oogly. I've also got Midnight Blues lining my upper and lower lid and I'm not liking it too much either. I'm gonna give it another shot when Outre is not on my face and see if that changes things. But...Outre is going back for sure

I just got my Midnight Blues Fluidline! My sister picked it up for me my other two fluidlines are still in the mail but I thought I'd post pictures of Midnight Blues in the Sunlight for you all in the meantime. Enjoy!




The Swatch is 3 layers on the left and 1 layer on the right. Sadly this is a bit sheerer than what I was hoping for. Love the colour though. Also I found the shimmer doesn't really show up unless in bright sunlight, more of a satin-almost matte finish. Can't wait for my other two! (Dark Envy and Dark Diversion)

I am trying really hard to cut down my wish list for this collection, but failing miserably

My list currently stands at:

Oh Oh Oh
Plum Fun
Avenue
Dark Envy
All shadesticks except Butternutty (as I already have that one)
Mythical
Creamy Bisque
Moleskin
Carbonized
Stunner
Seaside
226
211

It's quite a problem as I know I'll also want most, if not all, the Paint Pots from Posh Paradise



Does anyone know how Tundra shadestick compares to Silverstroke Fluidline?

Tundra and silverstroke are both just basic silver. Except tundra is a bit brighter and more shimmery. Tundra is a great dupe for silverstroke!

 

[Adee]

Do you have Gem of Roses? If so, how does it compare to Offshoot?
 
 

I don't have Gem of Roses. Sorry!

Thanks, Adee - maybe I can take Tundra off my list, then

Has anyone with a complexion of nc44/45 tried stunner blush and if so how is it?

Don't do it! I hate it and and everybody I know that's nc45 and swatched it doesn't like it. My artist is like NC25 and she said it barely shows up on her and she had to pack it on.

STUNNER barely shows on me. i have to pack it on and im really pale.

[Allura Beauty]

Part II swatches are up: Evil Eye, Lipsticks, Nail Polishes

 

[Prettypackages]

so far for me 226, runaway red, creamy bisque, carbonized if you don't have anything similiar, maybe avenue, street cool shade stick, moleskin (if it works for you). The rest I haven't played with enough to determine that.

ahh and of course this collection will arrive in Europe!

 

[LMD84]

runaway red... do i need it? everybodies swatches are making me think i do!

It’s a Junkshow baby! - todays specktra video

 

[iheartcolor]

i just picked up some items from my local counter and i am so happy! altho i am debating getting the 214 brush and a fluidline.............

 

[xbuttonsx]

STUNNER barely shows on me. i have to pack it on and im really pale.

I had one of the MAs do my makeup (it feels nice to have someone else do the work!) and she had to apply Stunner like 3 different times while doing my face and I am PALE.

 

[Allura Beauty]

Final swatches (Part III) are up!

<3ing the Shadesticks!

 

[AudreyNicole]

So what do we think the chances are of a restock on the website?

 

[Mac-Guy]

ahh and of course this collection will arrive in Europe!

I don't think it is possible to have a general "must have" list as it depends on each individual, but here are my (current) favorites (I tried to keep the list short):

- Creamy Bisque (as a natural highlighter that despite its frost finish looks rather natural)
- Moleskin (as an exquisite nude that looks absolutely stunning in combination with a Seaside or Hush)
- Carbonized (as a brown that has a lot of depth)
- Equilibrium (rather than Stunner, just because Equi is more unique whereas there are numerous shades that look similar to Stunner)
- Take Root (rather than Seaside as it is close to Hush)
- Street Cool (as a nicely pigmented and easy to work with taupe color)

Having said that, I like all my products (as I got quite a few more) and I only buy when I am sure I get good use out of it.

So what do we think the chances are of a restock on the website?

As they restocked SP and BO in the past, they might also restock MMO. What items are you looking for?

 

[nessafoo]
