MAC Nudes & Metallics Collection (April 2013) Pro Store Only

[cindypltnm81]

I finally received my 2 tiny purchases. But very content. Exposed e/s and Stylish me blush! Love them both for WOC. And stylish me is more than what I expected...it is beautiful color and everyday wearable!

I only purchased two of the Nude shadows (Exposed and Glimpse of Flesh) and I really wish that I had purchased BUs. I really did not know how much I would like these colors!

Lol right!? I almost left out bare minimum because I figured it would be too light, but said wth and got it anyways. lol Plan on putting them in a quad literally been wearing them everyday since I got them. Did you get the metallics as well?

That blush is the business. lol Plenty o' pigment in that one. I almost skipped out on it. Now contemplating Barefaced but not sure how it would look on my skintone.

NO! I have skipper's remorse for the Metallics. I wasn't loving the colors until I started to see everyone's swatches .... too late.

Oh well, that leaves more for future collections, right? I did get Barefaced and I love it. Nars is my HG for blush but I thought that I would take a chance. Have not worn it out yet but the swatching/testing that I have done at home has been really good.

I'm loving the crap out of my metallic shadows. They make my hazel eyes pop!

Lol. Originally I just got the nude shadows. Then I was like well I'll get brazenly and deep fixation. Also, threw in Stylish Me, Wholesome, and Restrained. May get Barefaced as well. I have a couple of Nars blushes and I don't ever use them. Smh, to many options. lol

You don't use your Nars blushes? OMG. I love mine. I just turned my non-makeup wearing cousin on to Nars products. I rec that she try Lovejoy first - my everyday workhorse - and she loves it too. She even bought the tinted moisturizer. I love the pigmentation of the blushes.

Are there any swatches of barefaced blush on WOC?  Wondering if I should pick it up and perhaps a metallic lippy (passed on them, but contemplating show all and perhaps the purple one). lol  I almost feel like I should have backed up all the nude shadows. lol  As, if I could ever use them all up, but you never know.

I'll try to swatch it tomorrow if someone else doesn't do it first. Show-All is a good one to pick of you're only getting one. I like Pre-Raphaelite also. Dominate is the only one that hasn't met my expectations (on me). It just doesn't pull purple at all on me.

I absolutely love stylishme I'm so glad I got. It it looks nothing like Razin BTW

I'm sure it will suit you fine. Is it even still available? Mac did an excellent job with this release. And much more pleasant experience when I was deciding what to get.

Razin is darker IMO. But yes, that blush is the biz

Not really. I guess I need to pull them out. I have waaay too much makeup. Lol outta sight, outta mind. Been wanting to get deep throat and dolce vita though. Lol

Dolce Vita is one of my favorites and I too have extensive collection of NARS you will love that color.

[brittneyJ]

So bummed I skipped out on Brazenly! I bought all the lipsticks I wanted but passed on the eyeshadows & am now regretting it

If anyone is selling Brazenly lmk plz!

Liba you were right!!!

I received my Dominate yesterday (standard shipping out west is so dang slow). Gorgeous! I immediately did a comparison to all my purple lippies, which is a chunk, and it stood on it's own. Everything else was deeper, lighter, or berry. This is straight up purple. Love the formula!

I'm wearing Subverted today and this is going to be a staple. It's actually brick red on me but it's one of those colors I can wear with just about anything.

 

[TwistedFaith]

I exchanged my Restrained for Subverted...can't wait to get it! I think it will be a "go-to" color for me.
