MAC - Creme Team Discussion

[concertina]

I ended up with Lavender Whip (Fashion Mews was *SO* frosty, pinky ick on me!) and Creme Anglaise! Perfect, gorgeous, love it.

Ever so rich with transparent reflects teal looks so good.

Popster looks so good over Shy Girl!

You aren't alone. If Lavender Whip is still sitting there in a while, I may b2m for it, and layer it with fashion mews.

Yeah I don't know. It was also really windy so that might have done it too. I have no idea. Thank god I went to the bathroom before I went into class, that would have been embarrassing. I was horrified, haha. I think I'll try it again tomorrow and see if the same thing happens.

I also wanted to mention that Sephora's Ultra-Shine Lip Glosses are a really good dupe for these. Similar opacity and non-sticky consistency. Plus they come in tons of colours. The only downside is the smell, which isn't nearly as good as the yummy vanilla.

Today I'm wearing Cream Anglaise and Tippy blush, stayed home all day.

Agreed that it makes a good YLBB, but that's because it is almost the same as my lips.

I tried it on at the counter, my friend couldn't see any color on me.

I'm getting it anyway, I think it looks like a good color to layer over lipsticks, but to wear alone would be pretty wasteful considering how expensive it is - I would definitely want to make the color show every time I wear it.

Yay, I'll be getting the same 2 items as you!

Glad to know that Fashion Mews has its fair share of haters too, but y'all should've made yourself heard earlier so I wouldn't feel so bad after trying it on at the counter.

If they are really good dupes, then maybe I'll check them out.

Can anyone verify this claim that they are similar?

I am loving Cream in your Coffee cremesheen lipstick! Blotted down a bit, it is the perfect pinky caramel neutral shade for work (I'm NW20).

I really like the cremesheen formula, too.

Still have not gotten any of these glosses, although I must admit I almost bought Partial to Pink the other day. AS IF I need yet another nude pink gloss!

 

[MAC_Whore]

I bought a handful of the glasses and most of the LS. I will admit that I would have bought 'Boy Bait' simply for the name, regardless of the colour.

 

[cupcake123]

Speaking of which, I just got my backup of Boy Bait in the mail today from Mac.

OMG I just bought Opal lustreglass to put over Lavender Whip and it is divineeeeeeeeeeeee. My CCO had tons of lippies and some of them were lavender! Obviously LE, I can't remember names but some were sheer (a purple plushglass) and some were deep (dark violet lipglass). But Opal was the one that stood out to me.
Ya'll should check it out!

I didn't try Creme Anglaise on my lips. My YLBB gloss is Chanel's Wild Rose, from Spring 2009. They look similar but Wild Rose have some glitters. I didn't buy it though. Budget!

Just bought Petite Indulgence yesterday. I love the feel of it, so soft and smooth nothing like the lipglasses. I'm a NW20 and it shows up a nicely on its own, but I don't think it's over the top color just applied on it's own, but it is kinda sheer.

But I put this over my Strayin from HK, OMG it's GORGEOUS

I have not bought a single thing from this collection still.
