[ILoveMakeup84]

Ripe For Love blush, Feel My Pulse l/s, Bare My Soul quad.

Bare My Soul for sure! It's soo pretty!!

I am 100% in love with Feel My Pulse! If you love purpley magentas but don't always want a super heavy matte then this lippie will be right up your alley. I love my other magentas like Up the Amp and Strong Woman but I am really appreciating that (because this is a creemsheen and thus slightly slicker and sheerer) I can slather this on without a mirror anytime, anyplace. Because of this I realize I am actually going to wear this one far more often than my others, I am really low maintenance when it comes to lipsticks, and if they can't be my on-the-go one-and-done then they don't make it into regular rotation. This one is getting backed up X2 TODAY!

Also, Ripe for Love is far more gorgeous than I ever thought it would be. I just grabbed one to avoid the Skipper's remorse problem but I didn't really believe it would be awesome on my cool toned skin, in fact it looks dynamite! And really quite a natural flush for looking so orange in the pan, it really has some lovely red undertones that will make it work for the coolies out there
I am thinking of backing it up but I am trying to be reasonable....Even my favorite blushes will never reveal their pans so I think this one is unlikely too as well. Too much competition.
For anyone thinking this is similar to Supercontinental, have no fear, this is a different animal entirely. SC is a bright fresh pinky coral, and RFL is a sultry sunset flush.

A friend gave me Rich Glance Powerchrome pencil (which I never would have purchased for it's ridiculous price!) but I am secretly kind of loving it. The texture is lovely and glides across the lid with zero effort and it sets and doesn't budge for a very long time, even without primer underneath (and on me, that is nothing short of a miracle). This would be a great travel makeup item, or perfect beach makeup. But why in god's name is it so expensive?????

great review, but you did not help my wallet.

This and the size are why I've decided to skip.

I looked at the 167 brush today and it felt a bit scratchy and a lot of hairs were falling out

Customers are sooo rough on brush testers. Ours were always destroyed.

Hello everyone! :new: After reading the thread I decided to join! I am really excited about this collection and will admit that I wanted everything, but after seeing the swatches and reviews you guys have helped me narrow it down! So here's :wishlist: Feel My Pulse Lipstick BMS Eyeshadow Quad Ripe for Love Powder Blush Hot Nights Powder Blush Golden Elixir Strobe Liquid I also wanted to ask you all your thoughts about Altered Beige. I'm NC43 and I've always wanted to try a nude lippie. Would you guys recommend this shade or have any other recommendations from the permanent range? TIA

Skip AB. Try cherish, honeylove, or jubilee (tho sheer as well).

If you could only get 3 things from this collection which ones would you pick?

RFL, RFL BU, and BMS :haha:

I try to skip but it's hard! Lol. But I think I've done fairly well lately. Been going lipstick crazy though. Instead of throwing them maybe I can empty them for B2M. Except my special packaging ones, I'll have to throw them out Anyone know how to empty glosses?

I thought special packaging could be returned for B2M, you just can't GET special packaging items that way, no?

:Nods: You can B2M LE packaging!

staying strong my list is only hot night.... my first blush!!!!!!! i'm more of a lipstick whore but fmp is too sheer although looks different on everyone and i hate frost finish and glittery lips

 

[Medgal07]

All of the swatches I have seen of the quads make them both look beautiful but I DO NOT NEED ANOTHER EYESHAOW. I repeat to myself, I do not need another eyeshadow. repeat.

I've tried that mantra----doesn't work

. I just made room in the stash for the 2 eyeshadow quads and will welcome them with open eyes arms

 

[kimibos]

i now want feel my pulse ls and RFL .

Love your detailed assessment---thanks for sharing!

 

[Medgal07]

and

Love your TR list. As for a nude lippie, there are tons in MAC's permanent range. You may want to check out Myth, Peach Stock, Honey Love, Creme d' Nude, to name a few. I'm sure you'll want to consider the finish etc.

I got ma stuff today!

I got FMP and RFL. And the packaging is just gaw-jus.

Haven't tried them out yet because it's getting dark here, but tomorrow I def will.

 

[Medgal07]

Ripe For Love blush, Feel My Pulse l/s, Bare My Soul quad.

and I understand limits but I can never eat just one--three potato chips. If the limit were three items that's what I would get...and a bag of chips.

 

[Medgal07]

Just RFL and Soft Sand (BU) for me

Enjoy Naynadine!!

 

[Medgal07]

I thought special packaging could be returned for B2M, you just can't GET special packaging items that way, no?

That's always been my understanding.

 

[Medgal07]

Nannadine, you're quite the enthusiast enabler!!! It is beautiful on her!!

I'm so glad I bought it.

Good lawd.... That looks great!  :heart2: Thanks Naynadine!

Shellcat I your new avatar. What's that :jawdrop: lipstick?

 

[Shellcat]

Thank you so much!!!!

It is actually not lipstick. I used Kandee Johnson's version of her "red velvet lip". All I have on my lips is MAC Chestnut lipliner and MAC Cherry lipliner.

That is it, no gloss or lipstick.


Here is her video on how to do it....super easy...
