i want fireside now too. shades of u has a video of the collection and in her swatch you can see how duo chrome it is, like redish plum and green.I love glitter so I might need fireside now.FaM is pretty fallout-y isn't it. I was kinda disappointed but I haven't tried it wet. I am so surprised that Silver Birch isn't fallout city though. It's kinda magic.
Fireside is one where I think the veining does matter - the tester I used originally had lots of the blue/green/grey color and it gave me a Club-like duochrome like you're describing.
PrettyGirlDoc, you'll have to create a look and tell us all about it in the Theme Makeup thread!
Nice Chi1216. Very wearable go-to shade. Just lovely!Hot Chocolate pulls pink on me. I love that!
I've also tried the 235 with pigments...great brush! I love that entire line of split fibre brushes
Oooo yes it looks so cool from different angles. And wow AB looks gorgeous on her.
Amazing choices Nayadine! Too little time between collections and too little $$$. I just ordered from the Chanel spring collex...should arrive by the end of the week...and then yet another collex from MAC on the horizon. I share your sentiments....Thank you.I plan to order Amber Glow, Haute Attitude, Ice MES and the eye brush. I'm also getting a CP from the US for Stereo Rose, both Strength blushes and Nocturnal Instincts.
I'd love to get a lot more from Apres Chic, but I'm low on funds. I'm still debating on getting Silver Birch MES.
And then there's the Chanel spring collection coming out, too...
I'm going to have to break mine out!
I was attracted to the colors, especial the burgundy & green. Can't get enough of it. Your experience with Fireside helped push me over the must-have cliff.

I missed this brush! It's the only Semi-Precious brush I haven't been able to track down yet. I'll be in the US in January so I'll have to try there.
do you wear alpine bronze and amber glow together?Ugh, sorry ladies…I tried. By the time I replaced the batteries in the camera (you see how often I use it), the sun went away again and I couldn't get anything approaching actual color with the flash. It's such a crap camera too - I don't know why I bother struggling with it - even an iPhone camera is better nowadays than this old junk (and I don't have an iPhone).
With flash, the no makeup photos looked almost the same as the Amber Glow/Alpine Bronze + Warm Companion photos (which I guess is a good thing for real life, eh?).
JUST GO TO A STORE AND TRY
yesserie!
Both together?... What does it look like?
I tried to take a photo today but my crappy camera can't capture it well with the flash. On me it's very subtle and natural. Alpine Bronze adds warmth along the contour of the cheekbones and Amber Glow smooths and adds glow over the rest of the cheek - I'm NC15. I can't always wear light blushes like Amber Glow because they're often too powdery, but AG isn't powdery and just fuses with my skin very well, like a lot of the newer MBs.
Ooooooohhhhhhhh, sounds beautiful. I am headed to my local MAC counter tomorrow to pick up my AG after you talked me into earlier. I want to try the AB with it too. Thank you!
