WOC: Dame Edna

[divineflygirl]

I wasn't very impressed with the eyeshadow trios. They didn't seem to "show up" very well on me. I'm NC 50. They seemed absolutely gorgeous, but unfortunately don't work well for me. Well..more so, I am preferring more intense colors and these seem to be "washes" on my eyes.

I love the lippies. Since I was headed over to Sephora, I decided to purchase Gladiola and Hot Frost. Gladiola is very, very intense and I love it! It is gorgeous with the Hot Frost on top. Hot Frost is also very pretty alone, a soft tease of pink. I think I am going back to get Kanga Rouge and the other two lipglasses. I'm still a bit on the fence with Coral Polyp. If you are desiring a red, I highly, highly suggest giving Kanga Rouge a go. It's beautiful.

I am passing on all shadows and the highlight powders, but all the lippys are mine.

I just got an e-mail from MAC saying that my order was shipped! I cannot wait to get my Royal Tour eye trio! I'm hoping that my Kanga Rouge and Hot Frost will be shipped as well. I also want the Splendid and Possum Nose Pink lipglasses since they look amazing! As for Gladiola and Coral Polyp, it may look too bright on my lips unless I can tone it down with any lipgloss that I have to make it look like that I have just clear lipgloss on by itself. I also thought about getting the Spectacle beauty powder but I may have second thoughts about it. After the Dame Edna collection and my trip to the CCO, I'm buying no MAC for awhile until the HK collection comes out.

And my Mom is a enabler too...she called me just 5 mins ago to say she picked up Kanga Rouge for me because she loved it and she thought I would too...Ugghhh But at least I didn;t have to buy it!! So that was nice

BBR will be out in a week, so that is a looooong time between hauls. I don't know how you do, waiting that long for a makeup fix.

I hadn't even gotten my first purchase from dame (hot frost and possum pink) before I was on the phone to macpro for e/s in pan form.

 

[TISH1124]

I pray that only 4-5 items in BBR really warrant me to purchase....
I MUST have HENNA if nothing else and most of the lippies..I have to pick my 3 fav no more than 3 lippies...NO MORE THAN 3 ...lather, rinse, repeat

 

[elongreach]

Well I decided on only one item from this collection in the end which was the What a dame high light powder. I just couldn't see anything else that jumped at me. But like most of you, it's just more money to spend next week with BBR. I've got 200 bucks burning a whole in my pocket for that collection!

 

[Face2Mac]

I can't wait until erinne get those swatches up.

 

[LatinaRose]

I wanted Gladiola really bad, but am skipping it now that I found out I can't get my pro discount. I figure if its meant to be, it'll show up at a future warehouse sale here

I am not excited about this collections nor the BBR Collection. I am very disappointed.

LOL - I have my BBR list down to a science. B2MACing for 2 eye shadows. Not taking home more than 4 eye shadows total. NO LIP PRODUCTS. Redhead & Brunette MSF's. One of the larger brush, 2-3 smudge brushes and 2-3 226's. It's still a long list though.

 

[damsel]

^^^ the smudge brush [214] is permanent. no need for backups, unless you really want to

 

[pretebrowneyes]

Ok yesterday I got the Wisteria palette and the MUA helped me with a paint to make the colors pop more. Sublime Nature... I haven't seen anything from the BBR that really jump out at me.

 

[GlamQueen21]

I gave in and got Kanga Rouge and Hot Frost online and that's it for purchasing MAC unless I want something else on there.

 

[LuvinMyMAC]

I had a moment of weakness today and bought Gladiola. It's so pretty and there's nothing in my collection like it...

 

[GlamQueen21]

^I was thinking about getting Gladiola and Possum Nose Pink online but Kanga Rouge and Hot Frost got me. I've never tried an Amplified Creme lipstick before so this will be my first.

 

[foizzy]

Gladiola + Possum nose pink=L<3VE!!!!

They are the only two items that appealed to me. Lucky that they work well together as well as on their own.
