Hang in there everyone! It'll show up soon!

 

[LMD84]

i hope you guys get this collection very soon!

You guys need not worry. I really do not think this collection is going to fly off the shelves, certainly not like Manish and Dresscamp--which I'm still pissed about. I think I accidently blinked and it was all gone but I do love my Manish stuff even though I have yet to use the e/s palette, but it is very pretty.

I just cannot make my mind up about the quad. I was going to get it but saw that it barely show up on the lids. But there are colored bases that could make them pop more right?

Everyone that has it is it worth $36?

I used the quad yesterday and i really like it. I didn't use a coloured base. I only used TFSI underneath and it showed up fine. They aren't superpigmented, but i didn't want them to be. They make a nice springtime look. I wanted some colours like these to use with brighter lippies.

Also i think Candy Yum Yum is the best item in this collection! I compared it to Petals & Peacocks and Hollywood Nights and it is a lot brighter. My swatches don't do it justice, because i just couldn't capture the neon in it. Playing Koi is also really lovely. On my lips it turned a bit pink, like Oh So Fair beautypowder in lipstick form. Soooooo pretty!
I haven't tried the nailpolishes yet, but the colours look pretty. I also got all three blushes. I couldn't resist them, because of the hearts. I wore Giggly yesterday and it is pretty, but not really unique. I will try Sakura and Miss Behave in the next couple of days. I think Sakura will be the most unique. I think Miss Behave will be a really natural blush on me if i don't use the heart. I think the heart might make it to pale to use as a blush, but the heart will be a nice highlighter.

Has anyone actually gotten CYY under a black light to see if it actually glows?

No sorry, i don't have a black light. I'm interested in this too, so if somebody has a black light and this lipstick please let us know!

 

[xasperadastra]

what's a black light?^^
anyway it's true: it's not easy to show up the Neon effect of Candy Yum Yum in pictures!! I have some brighter pictures but not neon

 

[xasperadastra]

uhh ok I was thinking about a kind of makeup called black light ahahahaha sorry ^^

I'm wearing Girl About Town today and was wondering how on earth I'm going to pull off CYY if that's so much brighter.

Also, just checked Debenhams, and CYY and Playing Koi are already sold out. Eek!

 

[VanillaCupcake]

Well darn, it's 8:25 AM and the collection still isn't up. I was hoping it would be up before I had to go to work.

As I am a complete 'tart' for bright lipsticks, this just cracked me up!

 

[tismama]

i dont think this will be up until atleast tonight

 

[OctoberViolet]

Good morning fellow MAC lovers! I have checked online for the QC collection, but it is not up as of yet.
I will keep checking through-out the day & let you know.

I did a look today with only products from this collection. I used the quad like yesterday and i'm loving it. I don't understand it's getting such bad reviews. I don't have any problems with it at all.
I also used Miss Behave blush for the first time. I used the peach colour as a blush and it is actually really nice. It is a subtile blush on me which i wanted for the look i did. I also used the green heart as a highlighter. I have 7 other highlighters, but this one is very unique because of the green. It helps the green undertones in Moshi Moshi stand out more which is also great. It isn't too green, but it gives such a nice green sheen. I'm very happy with it!
For lips i used Play Time lipstick. It is more pink than my swatch shows and that makes it different from Lavender Whip. It is also a bit darker. I really like this colour. It will be nice for those that want to start out wearing purple lips, but are afraid of it.
I also tried out Mischievous Mint nail polish. I love the colour and the application was great. Sometimes pastel colours can be watery, but this one wasn't. I used two coats. I will put a swatch in the swatch thread.
