MAC and Gareth Pugh Discussion

[OhSoJaded]

That's true. I forgot that these collections are different from the regular MMO/TC/RS type collections. I know some GP items are still on the Nordstrom website and were only recently on the Goodbyes section.

I think they are also kept longer on the website than other products. That might be part of the reason.

I'm close to breaking in my third one, but I might wait until the Fall. Elude is a stunning product. I hope they bring it back before I run out of BU's.

wow u guys eat elude or actually wear it? lol

I stopped using it every day about 6 weeks ago, when I started getting more color in my face and the sun started shining, and switched back to Careblend Light and then the EDSFs. Thankfully I haven't hit pan, but the embossed pattern is gone and there's a big dip in the middle. I'm so glad I backed it up, but I think that if MAC doesn't bring it back, they'll eventually bring out another product with a similar level of matte-ish texture and very light tone, since that's a high fashion direction that the trends are going in for next fall and onwards.

<3 Elude!!

You didn't hit pan on yours yet?

I'm kind of surprised I didn't hit pan on mine with how much I used it. I'd charge my brush up with product very lightly, I guess (I'd use a 138 and only load the brush up once for the whole face, though).

I'm using Elude because I'm still light, but I alternate it with my Medium careblend which has a big hole in the middle (Elude has a small hole and I can see the pan ^^).. Elude's texture is so fine that it's easier to finish IMO

i didnt buy it. im lately not using powders at all for my skin. just airbrush and blush/bronzer my highlight is either liquid or cream...but lets see on sunday if i fall in love with the edsf

ahahaha yes, I'm a powder eater.. I finish a powder in about 4 months if I use it daily.

My Light Careblend is looking pretty ragged - will have to replace it quite soon.

The matte-ish texture of Elude helps me stop wearing it for daytime in the spring - it looks lovely, but too formal in the Los Angeles sunshine. 'Nothing better for a night out on the town, though, any time of the year!!

The Woodbury Commons CCO has both GP metal x eyeshadows and a nail polish that looks taupish. I bought the e/s yesterday, but I haven't tried them yet.

 

[tchristi]

did the have the 182 buffer brush.

 

[smooch3s]

I didn't see that, but they do have the split fiber 179.

 

[smooch3s]

They also had the 234. I was surprised at how many Miss Behave blushes they had in stock and almost the entire Glitter and Ice collection.

Elude is beautiful!! I have stopped using it every day as well to try and save it because I think I am close to hitting pan on it. Its going to be perfect for the upcoming winter months with a nice lipstick. Its such a soft and beautiful colour on my face I just adore it.

 

[martiangurll]

I haven't broken Elude in yet. I am saving it for the first day of winter. It will be something to look forward to, since I tend to feel winter make up trends are a bit blaise anyway.

 

[Ashleybubbles83]

my CCO doesn't have any of it...if anyone's willing to do a CP please let me know

 

[Mac-Guy]

Did anybody see Elude at a CCO?

 

[gracie90]

I've not seen any GP in there yet! Just a hell of a lot of G&I

Nordstrom online (USA) still has the Elude powder.
