MAC A Novel Romance Collection (Aug 21, 2014)

[erine1881]

Unbelievable. No makeup at all. If it is done right someone will always ask you what you are wearing and that is the perfect opportunity to sell the client something from Mac. Why didn't she wear MU? Just naturally beautiful? What did the manager say?

Just naturally lazy. She got written up all the time for it.

Nice haul. LK looks pretty on you.

I have that nail polish too. I am wearing it now, how do you like it?
I like the color and formula, its my first MAC polish. Its very smooth and applies evenly. I may pick a couple more later on.

i like it! it's my first mac polish too, since i decided to try one as they dropped the price. even the SA was amazed they dropped them to $12, she said $19 was a little too ridiculous lol but i haven't put a top coat on it because i can't find mine at the moment, and so i've already got tip wear... which is surprising, because i thought it'd be more than what it is since i work with my hands at work all day opening boxes, etc.

My honest thoughts of TTT vs LK they are similar but Not dupes LK is darker and has less red in it. If any thing sin is more of a dupe to TTT. I love TTT it is my all time fav! But LK is nice to have in my collection when I want to go darker plus the application on LK is such a breez! I also picked up GK and I love it!! It is similar to red balloon but I'm a sucker for mattes and pleasure bomb is a tad more darker and pulls more red on me then GK. The last lippie I picked up was ANR and I love it too although it is very close to snob just a bit pinker I love animal instinct... Fun ending I want to love but I'm nc 30 35 and I feel like I have to use a lot of product to show up on my skin so I feel like I could have done with out.

good thing I skipped FE and got AI I knew it wasn't going to work on me

Yup. One girl that used to work with me never even wore a stitch of makeup. Go figure.

That is crazy! I don't think that is the case here---at least not with the Mac counters in Vancouver. My girlfriend had her second interview with a Mac freestanding store last week and brought me in as her model. We were given two timed scenerios (she was doing my makeup for an hour/ hour and a half) and it was SUPER stressful, especially as one of the scenerios involved makeup for a wedding photo session. She generally works freelance and is a really good makeup artist, but the interview process was pretty tough--and this was just for an on call job!

I'm glad that they take it so seriously here though,

That's what they do at all locations, but if they're in a jam and need bodies, they'll let lack of skills slide if you have customer service experience.

I just received my lippies today (HA and LK). Yes they are beautiful but I think I will return GK. I have been building up my lipstick collection and wanted bold lippies but this one looks to close to PB for me to keep especially since I like PB so much more. I don't wear PB nearly as much as I should but I know that when I am in the mood for it, I will wear it proudly. I rather take it back and get Relentlessly Red that I always wanted. Its a pink as well but the Retro Matte formula gives it that beautiful boldness that I want. And LK is beautiful. I have TTT which I love more than LK because of the look it gives with the Retro Matte formula. Its not as drying on me. I can definitely tolerate it with properly prepped lips. If I take it back, I may get Rebel, Lady Danger or Cyber which have been on my list for the longest. OOOORRRRR just wait for the Matte collection!!! Who knows

.

I'll be receiving HA tomorrow and I am thinking that I will be underwhelmed by that one too. But the AI blush I will definitely be keeping. I love it!! Its right up my alley! It takes a lot of build up but I like the fact that I can control the pigmentation.

I'm wearing it alone.

 

[chi1216]

Really?  How are you wearing it?  Over lipstick? Alone? with a lipliner?  Thanks. I'm wearing it alone.

Creme is my current go to lipstick at home (have different one for purse and Heartless at the house but can only use it for limited situations). I have always loved it with every lip glass but will say it doesn't work great with Reckless Desire.

That's great, it looks very easy to wear and pretty. I feel like it's the nude version of Creme Cup, which I love. I anticipate another B2M for me in a few weeks as I finish up some lippies and get rid of ones I should never have bought!
