MAC Extra Dimension discussion

I've got Warm Thunder on right now, foiled. It's beautiful if you like metallic sheens. I wore Blue Orbit yesterday with Lunar in the crease and Jest in the inner corner. It was really pretty. Blue Orbit was foiled, the others dry. Thinking about picking up Young Venus, but I'm afraid that it will just look like white frost on my skin, as most pinks do.

Thx berryjuicy

Superb, Whisper of Gilt, and Rich Core are back in stock on the U.S. site. At first both skinfinishes were sold out and Glorify was the only one left. Now they're back and Glorify is gone.

I am wearing Havana again, and I don't like it. I need to see what WOC are doing with it. It isn't doing anything for me. I'd hate to give it up but, it is looking like I will have to.

What's not working for you?

I've worn Havana a few times. I've worn it alone on the lid. I've worn it on the crease and outer V with Sweet Heat on the lid. I've worn it on the lid with Sweet Heat in the inner corner. Today, I got the idea to layer it over Genuine Treasure Paint Pot. It came out darker than I originally wanted (It's a hot sunny day today and I think brighter colors would have been a better choice.) But boy is it sparkly! Love the look! Finished with Modern Mandarin and Glorify and Entice lipglass.

Try it over bamboom, it's a nice neutral eye with a little bit of sheen.

Hopefully since they've restocked the other 2 sf's they'll restock Glorify as well.

Hi everyone!

'Haven't been online for a bit, but I just wanted to say again that Dark Dare is the best black shadow I own - love it so much! I normally don't BU shadows, but I'm really considering it here. It's so smooth and buildable, blendable or you can just slather it on in a thick, foiled layer. You can play up the shimmer or tone it down, but it always goes on perfectly smooth and hides any wrinkly lid action like a charm.

If I had to get rid of all my eye makeup except one thing, I'd have to keep Dark Dare. There are some beautiful shades in this collection, and yeah, DD is "just" black, but I really can't see how a black shadow could get any better than this.

Great review! I might have to pick this one up.

Agreed. I picked up Dark Dare to round out gettting all 10 e/s.

I think it is the most blendable black shadow I own. Blows chalky Carbon AWAY!!!

I think it's interesting it's got a "Glow" finish, unlike the rest of the shadows. I'd love to see this finish in some other colors in the future - the sparkle is just at the right amount and you can apply it so you hardly see any sparkle or shimmer, and just have a moist, satiny effect instead. So flattering!!!

It's like the "let's-throw-in-one-frost-finish-in-a-collection-of-five-satin-finishes-blushes" number that they pulled with TC.

It would be lovely to see more ED GLOW e/s in the future.

 

[Mac-Guy]

You got all 10? You are a bad, bad girl.

It's a finish that'll look great with deep jewel tones for Fall (hint hint, MAC!)

 

[Shellcat]

You know it... I love this collection. Seriously.

Heavenly Creature is my next lover...

Yes!

I would love deep colors in this formula.

Colors I'd buy in ED Glow in a heartbeat:

Mid-tone neutral or Payne's (bluish) grey (for that amazing blendability)
Deep emerald blue/green
Scarlet red
Royal purple
Burgundy plum

Bring it on, MAC!

 

[Shellcat]

Oh yeeeessssss! I love deep jewel-toned colors like this!

I have a question could I buy the 128 brush online or do I need to hand pick it in a store. I kinda like to pick my brushes from the store especially when I ordered the 226 and not only was it not pointed but the steel part was bended but thankfully because I ordered from Norstrom so free return.

 

[Shellcat]

I ALWAYS try to buy my brushes in the store. I made the mistake of ordering the 131 online and it arrived with the very end of the bristles(about 3mm) being bent all to one side. Freaky.

I went to the store and got a new one(hand-picked) and got a refund for the funked out one.

With THAT incident under my belt, it was hand-picking brushes in the store from then on...
