It does look pretty, but I think you can find something similar in a different formula. I'm so wary of MAC's polish formula. Keep in mind, np companies are making a bazillion nudes right now b/c nude polish is a huge market.

Here are some suggestions for a nice pink-nude (pic from The Beauty Look Book)

I love these kind of nude shades. Now I'm glad I passed on Thimbleweed, reading that the formula is tricky. I had the last one sitting in my cart for a while, but now it's sold out.

I love buying red lipstick and...that's about it.
In most cases they become gifts for friends.
Some witchcraft - I can't wear red.
But it looks beautiful - so here it goes.

I stopped by my local MAC counter and was told that this collection was releasing this week. Apparently they already have the product in stock but cannot sell until this Thursday. One of the MUAs was even wearing Thimbleweed polish. It looked very nice on her, but as others have mentioned I am not a fan of MAC np quality.

I would not say, that all MAC polishes are bad. I have some really good ones too and they last quite well on me (5-7 days without chipping). Allthough Thimbleweed isn't the easiest to apply, I like the colour. It's not to light and not to dark.

I agree. I love the Gareth Pugh n/p, both in color and texture. I also adore Rich Rich Rich n/p from the Marilyn collection. As for nude MAC n/p, Undercover from the Carine Roitfeld collection is my fav at the moment. It perfectly matches Tropical Mist l/s. Generally speaking, I had good experiences with MAC n/p, but my n/p stash is rather small, thus my opinion in that department is not really representative.

Btw, does anyone here ever hear Schouler ever said with the same cadence as Bueller? Like when Ben Stein is taking attendance and has to call out his name a few times?

I think you'd be pronouncing it correctly then…. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bd2GyFShMQw

I do have some MAC polishes, because they come out with some neat colors. But after I bought those way back when, I have NEVER bought another. MAC shouldn't try to do everything, they're so incredible with things like lipstick they don't need to keep doing the things they haven't done well. I mean, there's just no point, there are so many great nail polish brands out there, why keep making them without improving the formula with that kind of competition?

I have a review with swatches and comparisons of mangrove lipstick on my blog. Link is in my signature.




I had it on today and I really love the colour!
