I have huge huge list what I want next. But.. I cannot get it all.

I just made a list of the e/s I have and which I want from the perm line. Big mistake!

But I am excited about the little darlings. Especially the cool pigments!

I made myself a budget for every of the next collections until HK. I won't go over this budget!

You will learn it after one year or so with MAC

1. Look at a new collection and write down what you want.
2. Add it all together to get an amount.
3. Is that amount alright with your budget? No?
4. Cut out the items from your list you think you can live without. (Maybe this process will need some days

)
5. Et voilà - you have a wishlist according to your budget!

Hmm I am afraid that step 4 would need some weeks!

I have a little notebook now where I write everything I want in it.

Thanks for the inspiration!

There is one thing you may not skip from the Chill col -> VELLUM

Re: MAC-Adoring Carmine/Passionately Red/Passions of Red/Little Darling Discussion

Absolutely! Vellum is a must have for me. But I will buy it as a refill before.

Thats pretty much what I do. I also look at as many swatches as I can, and think about if I can substitute something I already own for one of the new products. I usually can. Example: I was told Liquer was different enough from Major Minor lipglass to have both....its not. LoL I shouldnt have bought Liquer. But anyways...I definetly do pretty much the same thing.

Has anyone else found that Ambience (the dark grey) from the smokey eyes palette is really hard to work with? On me it blends like shit and has very little colour payoff...maybe I'm applying it wrong...

I have trouble with it too. It applies very splotchy and uneven on me. Anyone have any suggestions? I actually applied the Smokey palette on a girl yesterday and it looked pretty over Bare Study, but it still looked a little uneven.

OMG I just got my little black package and I am in looooooooove with Classic Eyes Palette!!!!!!! I think it is one of the best MAC has released. I just love it. I can use it sooo many ways. Ugh. Love love. Hhehe.

Danger Zone MES looks hot. A lot of glitter but hopefully I can make it work and not look to crazy. Did anyone else notice MAC started using bubble wrap with their mineralized products? Smart idea.

it needs to be pressed on, since its a velvet. kinda like how you press beauty marked on to get the purple, you gotta press ambience on to get even color payoff, but its not gonna be dark at all. plus, the sparkles show up better this way too.

Thanks for the feedback girls! I'll try pressing rather than swiping...
