MAC Daphne Guinness Discussion

I am sure you will be okay! I have never even HEARD of anybody using up a whole jar of pigment (unless there is body makeup involved)...I am always laughing at myself for buying whole jars of pigments since I have never enven made it through a SAMPLE of one color! But that may be because I have about a million of them......LOL. My point is that they are SO pigmented that they last for a near eternity! Just don't tip it over.......

Aurora pigment is so pretty with Patina e/s! I have to be careful to not use it a lot to back it up and I don't backup pigments at all.

Does anyone have both Seasoned Plum and Up the Amp? I would love to see how the two compare.........

I thought about that recently when I was looking in my shadows and pigments! I'll have to try it!

I just have to tell you all how much i love Borealis! It helps to neutralize the red in my lips and because of that it is a great nude lipgloss. I think i like it more than Narcissus!

Me too! It's perfect, both in color and texture. Due to the grey hues, it's more than a nude l/g!

i used up an entire jar of teal pigment before.... i used to use it on a daily basis so bought another one back in 2004 i think...

HELP! I want to get some blushers from the current collections but with all the lovely stuff coming out in the next month I want to limit myself to just one of the following ...azalea blossom, subtle breeze or blonde msf. The blushes I have that I think my be in the same colour family are well dressed, hang loose, pet me, dainty, petticoat and porcelain pink. I am nw10-15 and would appreciate any advice you could give

I would go with Azalea Blossom, because you get 3 colours in one and it's a unique colour i think. I think Porcelain Pink could be close to Blonde and Pet Me to Subtle Breeze. I don't think they are dupes, but you have colours that are close for those and nothing like Azalea Blossom.

For me, AB didn't look great on my NC15-20 skin while Subtle Breeze looked fantastic!

I was thinking ab might be similar to well dressed when swirled and that hang loose is a mineralize version of ab so I am not sure. Going by swatches blonde looks a little bit more pink than porcelain pink....

I like the look of sb but I have pet me and dainty and I regretted getting pet me after I realised how similar to dainty it was and I am worried sb will be the same...

Hang Loose looks a lot lighter in swatches i have seen and i think AB is more purple than Well Dressed. I do also think Blonde is more pink than PP, but i think the difference is bigger between AB and the others.

Here are some swatches from Karlasugar:
Well Dressed http://karlasugar.net/2010/01/mac-b...ssed-pinkswoon-dollymix-fullfuchsia-azalea-2/
AB http://karlasugar.net/2010/02/mac-s...ng-forecast-azalea-blossom-and-vintage-grape/

I'm NC15 and i do like AB on me, strange. What did you wear with it?
Now i'm more excited for Subtle Breeze, that one is high on my list!

Maybe you want to branch out and get Fresh Honey or Early Morning.

I am trying to narrow my list not add to it! Lol Cool toned pinks tend to suit me but peach shades don't unfortunately. Do you know if blonde is similar to porcelain pink?
