MAC - Creme Team Discussion

[ladyJ]

Has anyone bought the c/g online? I know when I buy them in the stores it costs 17.50 but online it says 18.00. Do they charge you 50 cents more online?

I held out for quite a while, but took the plunge! I just ordered Melt in your Mouth c/g! I can't wait; I have a benefit her glossiness gloss that is all creamy peachy goodness (and smells kinda like peaches!)

I truly can't wait to experience for myself what these smell like!

I love love love Lavender Whip and lipglosses. But girls... do you have any tips how to make them lasts longer?... I don't know... Maybe I should buy prep&prime for lips, will it help?

Ackkk, you posted! When I came to the board tonight, I was so hoping that I would see you post - & here you are!!!

I feel like I haven't chatted with you for so long

Anyhow, I love Melt in you mouth - big time! its really pretty.

Yep, the glosses are $18.00 on MAC.

These glosses should come with a warning - May Be Habit Forming

K, sorry if this has been discussed, but really, what is the difference btwn these and Lip Gelee? Same texture/smoothness, and they both apply sheer (despite looking different in the tube) but lip gelees have way more gloss and are less money! Don't get me wrong, I like these c/g, but I am thinking I got duped by a lip gelee packaged in a deceiving tube.

So true...but then again MAC should just put that on ALL their products.

 

[gigglegirl]

aww elegant-one you rock! yea life has been crazy so when I have time, I just silently lurk the forums. But I love reading your excitement for the collections! I ordered the one c/g, the pretty baby bp, Mimmy l/g and Popster lip conditioner the latter 3 from HK. I just worry I hesitated so long and now something will be sold out (which theyll email me and tell me so next week).

Up next: Sugar Sweet--Ill prob buy quite a few from here. I've lost a lot of my MAC craziness. Its weird, I feel funny!

Well, if you post or not, you're in my heart - always

I haven't receive my Mimmy yet cause of Nordies screwing around with their site orders, but I bought Popster cause I'm in love with the color & how they feel on.

I'm lemming pretty baby, but can't decide for sure. Its really really pale

Hopefully you'll get your full order!

 

[gigglegirl]

really pale should be good for us pale girls, right!??!

I LOVED heatherette's pink bp, use that as blush and lightly to try and finish my liquid foundation so I ordered pretty baby w/out seeing it, as I have quite the dip in heatherette one(darn its bothering me, the name escapes me!)

Also, has the cremesheen l/s formula changed from the first batch of cremesheens (which I found to be rather drying)?

Hannah!!

So glad to see you!

You are not the only one... I have lost alot of my MAC craziness too. I have gotten 3 items since August, and you know what, I love those 3 things, and I don't feel at all like I am missing out on anything.

Ehh, after awhile it all starts to look the same anyway.

 

[gigglegirl]

woot Audrey!! Happy to see you. I think about you sometimes, sending your family good vibes (hoping the rest of 09 will treat you all well!).

I just seemed to have hit a point where (like you say) I don't feel I'm missing anything---compared with previously, the hype and thoughts of possibly missing a new Mac release would cause me to buy things I really don't use.

I vow to hit pan on something other than blot powder this year!!!

Hitting pan is a very exciting experience. <3

True, but it might also cause some panic especially if it's LE and I don't have any backups.

Well, I hit pan in my beloved Blanc Type and it's perm, so I'm not fretting.

I find it satisfying, too, because it means I know buying that particular item was definitely a good purchase!

 

[dreamer246]

Well since becoming a MAC addict, I've only managed to hit pan on my blot powder because I use that stuff every single day.

Sigh, maybe I should stop myself from buying any more stuff till I hit pan on something, huh?

 

[ladyJ]

All I have to get is looks like sin tomorrow and I have all the c/g. I'm crazy I know. I went to go get it today but they sold out so now I have to go to another store. *sigh* After this I'm good. haha!
