Well I just received a £30 Debenhams giftcard, so I may go a little crazier than I expected! I hope the technakohls aren't as horrendous as T made them out to be as I wanted 2, Seasonally Spicy and Going For Gold. However, she did hate Semi Precious, my favourite collection since I first got into MAC in February...

Will you post pics of you wearing the lippies? That would be awesome, esp. Soft Sable :) I only have the budget for one, but can't decide wich one of those three...

When I visited my haul yesterday Fresh Ice was 'winking' at me in the bag. She's a gorgeous shade. Can't wait to get her!
 
Hi all! (first time posting here) but I wanted to share some additional swatches I did of two of the paint pots. I saw my blog post linked here (thanks to whoever did that!) and I uploaded some new pictures. I added these to the post but I wanted to make sure that you saw them. :) HTH!


This is Let's Skate in direct sunlight. You can see how the shimmer really comes out when the light hits. This is gorgeous. I wouldn't have thought so initially based on what I saw online. But in person, and on the lids it gives an opal effect.


I also wanted to compare For Effect with Dangerous Cuvee. The picture is pretty self-explanatory. Same texture, same glitter/shimmer, just different undertones.

Happy hauling! ;)

What do you all think about the packaging?

I find it a little plain and boring. I wish it had some special design on it and not just a plain white color.

i love the color. its a crisp, clean satin white, not a matte white (using paint terms) so its smooth with a nice shine/sheen. personally, i love it. its feels fresh and new like the season's first snowfall.
