MAC A Fantasy of Flowers Collection (February 6, 2014)

[erine1881]

I really love the eye look. 

Thanks Dolly! It's True Chartreuse on the lid, Uninterrupted in the crease and bottom lashline, Chromagraphic pencil in the waterline, and Blacktrack. That's it!

Ha! I know her and the gal who did the makeup on her! Amazing artists and people in my region! It looked even better in person!

Colour story according to the site for easier access

LIPSTICKS
Dreaming Dahlia (Lustre): bright red light coral
Rose Lily (Lustre): pastel pink
Snapdragon (Lustre): mid-tone blue pink
Heavenly Hybrid (Lustre): medium toned berry

PIGMENTS
Lily-White: bright butter yellow
Chartreuse Bouquet: fluorescent green shimmer

FLUIDLINES
Sassy Moss: vivid green
Phlox Garden: vivid violet

I'm interested in seeing Sassy Moss, but I ended up returning the last vivid green fluidline that Mac did (Ivy) because I just could not get it to go on opaque or evenly. I like the lustre l/s finish and these look easy to wear. I'm going to say that I'll limit myself to one, as long as it's not an easy dupe from my collection. I have a terrifying number of lipsticks and I really have to start reining my purchases in. I do not need to own every berry-purple lipstick. The pigments look like loads of fun, although I don't pull out my pigments as often as I should. I'd kind of like to try wearing both with Phlox Garden. (Am I too old to do that? I don't care, really.)

This! I don't have a hard time skipping other colors but the berry/plum/purples always get me. I don't have a shade like this in a lustre finish, though, and it could be nice to throw on without needing a lip liner or anything.

 

[Debbs]

Wouldn't it be rude not to say thanks for the color story ? TY! ONE (1) magenta CSG -PP and keeping it moving. Never thought I'd ever see the day. Prior and future purchases justified. Thanks, Mac!

Well if all the lipsticks are lustres, that'll make them much easier to skip. I'm thinking Star Quality and Perfect Topping will be all I get.

Those are the only two items I really, really like from this collection and I already have them! This collection may be a big skip for me.

 

[Kaidan]

I need to hear what the pink and purple pigments are before i know if they're coming home with me or not, but aside from the green pigment, I'm also getting the two fluidlines and that's it!

Your eye look is so awesome!


Boo at all of the lipsticks being lustres. I don't hate the finish and they don't dry my lips, but they're so meh at times. Idk how to explain it... I'm still curious for Fleur D'Coral, Dreaming Dahlia, and Rose Lily. If Rose Lily looks like Budding Love and Dreaming Dahlia looks like Hibiscus, then it's a skip for me. I'll just go for Perfect Topping and that's it. #TeamLowBuy

You can wipe the snow off. It doesn't mean it has gone bad.

Hello everyone! A wonderful anonymous source sent me a BUNCH of information on the color story to post. Check it out & THANK YOU!!!!

Hi, I got to take a look at the collection, but I don't remember the items very well.

Cremesheen glasses

Star Quality- r/p
pearly light peach nude- new?
pearly/frosty light pink/tan nude-new?
sheer sparkly violet- reminded me of the hello kitty purple lg but with bigger shimmer and glitter
-I forgot the other ones

Lipsticks are all lustres I believ
Dreaming Dahlia- coral
pinky bubblegum
Violet one that matches the violet gloss- might be named playful petal
nude one
purple one

MSF
Stereo rose... The one I tried looked like a lighter fairly precious in msf form... it didn't look like the previous versions that were darker and coral
Perfect topping

Mineralize blush
Petal pusher- gorgeous... Amped up version of peachykeen with more fuschia base...glowy and shimmer
Other blush looked like dainty but warmer

Fluidlines
Sassy moss- has tiny gold shimmer
Phlox garden- matte

Pigments
Lillywhite r/p
Pink pearl r/p
lime green- really pretty, similar texture as naked pig..new?
Didn't see the last one

Hope this helps everyone

Thanks so much for the color story Liba!!!!! My list so far is

"snow" is just some of the ingredients crystalizing on the outside. It isn't mold or anything like that. But, whatever makes you feel comfortable.

 

[lilinah]

I don't mind the Lustre finish (and, c'mon, guys, MAC has been putting out so many all-matte collections lately, so all one finish is nuthin' new). And there are plenty of nice colors in this collection. But unless something makes my little heart go pitty-pat

i'm skipping. I'm one of those low-buy guys.

I have Perfect Topping and i have approx. 45 cool-toned, 45 neutral-toned, and 45 warm-toned blushes & highlighters (remember, some things go back to the late 1960s and early 1970s), and while i wear highlighters fairly often, i really i rarely wear blush, so i don't need what's in this collection

For me:
Sassy Moss and Phlox Garden Fluidlines. C'est tout.

I'm toying with Chartreuse Bouquet, but probably passing.

Thanks Dolly! It's True Chartreuse on the lid, Uninterrupted in the crease and bottom lashline, Chromagraphic pencil in the waterline, and Blacktrack. That's it!

So simple yet beautiful.

 

[brooklyn02]

It looks like stereo rose and petal power for me. As for the lipsticks that was a big let down. Once again MAC has broken my heart .

 

[darkpearl]

I may get 3 or 4 things. Not too excited here

That's what I posted earlier? The colour story was sourced from a website linked by another member. No surprise that Instagram users are already stealing info. If it wasn't for Specktra they wouldn't know shit. You're all welcome ladies
