MAC - Peacocky discussion

[LMD84]

Hey all,

I conducted another experiment yesterday:

This time I paired Dangerous Cuvee p/p with Unflappable e/s.

LOVE!!!

It lasted ALL day, no creasing and looked as fresh as when I put it on yesterday morning.

So - it is Delft p/p with Ego and DC p/p with Unflappable.

Now I need to get my hands on Noir Plum and Paparazz-She.

awesome! so they go well with paint pots then!

For anyone who has Noir Plum, try smudging it over your black pencil liner with 219 or something. It looks super cool

Since I have decided to not get an e/s palette from WW (since they apparently suck) I have convinced myself that I can get more of these shadows now.

Totally agree!
I was planning on getting the Defiance Quad from WW to create a look w/ Spitfire l/s and Amazon princess blush- but now i'll probably just throw in Top of the posh metal e/s instead. (although I'm still secretly hoping for another reviewer to say Defiance isn't that bad)

There's a part of me that hopes that when I swatch Defiance and Valiant that I suddenly discover that they're actually pretty good, but I have a feeling that's not going to happen. I figure since I'm going on launch day (I still have to work out if my pro store is getting the collection a week early, as they used to, or at the same time as everyone else), I'll still be able to pick up Noir Plum and maybe stash some money away for shoes. Or other brands...

i managed to snatch up noir plum...can't wait to use it in a look!

 

[GlamQueen21]

Now all of you girls are making me want to get Noir, Dalliance, Ego, Top Of The Posh, Papparazz-she, and Unflappale! LOL I might as well try to get all of the Mega Metal Eyeshadows then LMAO!

 

[Fiberluver]

Yes me too. I was really hoping Valiant would be great because of my love of greens. But yeh I have a feeling with the reviews thats not going to be the case. And a girl can always use more cute shoes, another love of mine.

I'm thinking of getting Top of the Posh. I'm definely getting Noir Plum and Prance looks like it would be a great color I'm just afraid it may be a little too frosty/metallic for my age.

I didn't hear much about Sexpectations. Anyone have that one and loving it? I have been thinking about getting it. I have also been thinking of Tweet me, but I have melon pigment. What is your thoughts on Tweet me and Sexpectations?

It is sold out at all of my local MAC stores and counters.

It is still available on the MAC site (at least the Canadian one). For free shipping, subscribe to the e-mail or do a livechat and wait for a free shipping code.

Everyone that can get thier hands on or thinking about Noir Plum, It's so amazing. I love the wet it and line my eyes with it. And to smoke out the outer corners for a smokey purple eye. Love love love it!

 

[LMD84]

[cutemiauw]

this is the week us european people get to haul! yay!

Yes!!! It's supposed to be tomorrow in Germany

.

And I'm still indecisive on which one I'll get

 

[peachsuns]

I bought Ego yesterday. Why is this collection still available? I feel like going back to the store for more.

But honestly, I feel lucky that they are still here. What a great collection.

Happy hauling, everyone!

I'm still not sure on the lipcolors, and am gonna wait till I can test them before deciding, but my current list of possibles is:

Scandelicious
Woo me
Love Peck
Exxxhibitionist

 

[LMD84]

i'm hoping that the collection goes online tomorrow on my day off! then i can order as soon as it's up, although i doubt things will sell out quickly this time.

 

[MACina]

I cross my fingers for you LMD84!!!!

That would be really great.....

I got Centre Stage today and it's surprisingly cool on my skin tone. Honestly it's like a very dark grey-brown and I can't see a hint of bronze in it. The quality of the shade is comparable to Paparazz-She, I only swiped it lightly with my brush and it was enough for both of my lids. Amazing shade for smokey eyes but it's so easy to blend you can also tone it down for a daytime look.

I did a quick look with Paparazz-She on lid and CS on crease but didn't like the result that much until I layered a coppery shade over CS. Tried it with pure golden eyeshadow on lid and CS on crease but it looked a little flat to me. My last attempt was to use a light golden pewter (almost like Dalliance) on lid with CS on crease but the pewter shade turned into a cool silvery shade. Now I'm confused and don't know which shade I should combine with CS

Or maybe I should try and swap it for Spectacle of Yourself, idk..
