MAC Tribalist lipstick
Finally got around to using the items I got from this collection. I used Nightmoth l/l, Salon Rouge l/s and Courting Chic l/g
So I got my mini haul for christmas... Tribalist (lipstick) is GORGEOUS. Literally beautiful. Eeeeeeeeeeeexcept I can't wear it. It really does make my teeth look yellow, and I feel like you'd have to have pearly whites to get away with this. I'll keep it until I can afford to get my teeth done, but otherwise it's going in storage. :eek:hboy: Sweet Sentiment (blush) is so amazing. Gives a natural rosy glow and lovely texture. Happy happy happy. And finally, the smokey eye bag. I haven't seen too many reviews of this one. Sadly I didn't get any clear pictures as my phone camera is broken, but the duo is surprisingly good. I didn't think I'd be able to create a full look using just those two shades, but I managed to pull off an okay smokey eye. And trust me, I am no pro at make-up, eyeshadow being my weak point! I put a base Illamasqua skin base lift concealer (ran out of primer) and just used the darker shade (I can't remember names) to gradually build a dark eye, blending and adding where needed. I used the silvery shade in the very corners (and added a bit of Illamasqua pigment in Beguile - I just love it too much!!). It did fade but overall lasted really well. I wish I could say the same for the powerpoint eye pencil, but with my usual technakohl, there's just no competition. The mascara isn't bad, I've had better, I've had worse. Will be a good backup for when my every-day mascara runs out! Overall, very happy. Unfortunately as mentioned my phone camera is broken and therefore not very clear. I've attached some pictures, which were selfies to my best friend, so excuse my face in some of them. God I feel vain lol. Sorry for being so late but I just thought I'd share my experience!  
My boyfriend got me Tribalist for Christmas and I'm so in love. Initially I thought it would be too dark but it is so so beautiful.
Hermosas todas =)

I must say I am really disliking the formula of No Faux Paus and Rebel especially.

There was alot of talk earlier in this thread about the formula changing.

The colour of NFP is amazing but it just lacks the creaminess/thicker consistency of some of my favourite other mattes like Good Kisser in the old formula.

I also bought Brave recently and it does not feel anything like the older Satins I have.

Rebel from this collection is not how I remember it at all.

I also find the new formula accentuates flakes or dryness and feels much thinner in texture.

I'm wondering whether the creamsheens and other finishes have changed yet or will change.

I also miss the classic vanilla smell.

Bummer. That sucks. Sorry to hear that you are not happy with the new formula. I love Rebel. I guess I have the old formula because I hVe no problems with it.

I bought Rebel about 2 years ago.
I'll be interested to hear people's thoughts as they repurchase their old lippies in the new formula - the changes are very dramatic IMO.

I was going to B2M for Rebel in perm packaging before the new stock arrives but I thought it would be silly to have two even in different formulas. Who knows I might grab one before it;s too late.

I opted for a similar shade from Bare Minerals called Lead the Way.

In case anyone is interested, Enchantment pressed pigment is available at Macy's. I just ordered. Not sure if this has been shared already.

If anyone is interested as of 3/12/15 MAC still has every pigment set from Objects of Affection except for the Bronze. I finally got around to buying my Rose and Gold sets the other day. DO NOT pay someone from ebay for these because they are not sold out. Just type in objects in the search bar. They also still have the lipgloss sets.

I'm so sad I got all of the lippy in this collection and didn't use it yet it I'm loving all the swatches I keep buying collections and didn't even go through yet from heirloom to the Cinderella
