I thought you would love those colors too

I thought the gloss was pretty & pigmented perfectly.

Invisible lipstick

I passed on the neutral lips.

Ah, you're so beautiful that you can prolly wear about anything & look great.
But...those rose colors would look fabulous on you... Just sayin

 

[rbella]

crap, i should have bought the rose lips set. ok, maybe i will.

 

[elegant-one]

^^^Good golly, yes...you of all people

 

[MzzRach]

I actually love the Neutral Lips set - but I have essentially no pigment in my lips, so even the "invisible" Glaze lippie, Soft Spot, shows up on me. And I love it!

 

[Winthrop44]

I have very pigmented lips, so that probably does make the difference. I do like the darker lipstick and the gloss in the Neutral set ALOT tho!

 

[rbella]

OMG. What the hell is wrong with me? I can't bring myself to hit the "purchase now" button. Help me.

I completely agree about cranberry. They are EXACTLY the same. I have found that the lighter pink is very very close to fuschia pigment and the middle is quite close to copper sparkle. I think I am going to return mine as well since I have all the dupe colors

It's OK - it's OK not to buy! I've already taken stuff off my holiday list (i.e. brush sets) - besides, all that good stuff coming up in Jan. I am skipping the rest of the collections for 2008 (except for the pigment sets) and focusing on early 2009.

This is my attitude now too-except getting Stark Naked. No thanks to Elegant One LOL

I hate the zipper because it's chunky glitter... and I have absolutely no use for chunky glitter. I might use a dab of a reflects glitter once or twice a season, but that's as far as I go. That's just my personal preference, though.

...and I refuse to get any of these MES because I just know the glitter will invade the coloured portions and infect them. Hmph. Ah, well, my wallet is pleased by this.

It's really one of the prettiest BPB

 

[starz]

I received my goodies yesterday and tried out interview, wow!! This is the best mes that I have tried. The colors are really pigmented and smooth application and I dabbed my finger in the middle and patted the glitter over the shadow and was just a nice hint of glitter. And I am also lovin the stark naked bpb, will be my everday blush

 

[jannat84]

hi! i went to my mac store today and i did my RSS haul...i purchased dangerzone and interview eyeshadows...as well as the stark naked bpb and the 181 brush....

the red in dangerzone looks amazing in the pan..i had the MA try it on me and it was WHOA...she did the really bright red look with the flammable paint underneath and it was a bit much for me...i was wondering those of u that purchased it...how do u plan on wearing it? i don't really know what to do with it and i don't want to keep it just cuz it looks pretty...any ideas would be great!

thanks!

 

[Distinque]

I received my order today .... stark naked doesn't look like afterdusk??... afterdusk has more of a plum than pink tone to it. Afterdusk also has more of the golden sheen to it too. It's still a great color though...I really want to play with my goodies right now but I need to study for my Organic Chemistry exam!
