Ok, I really don't like MES. The Style Black versions are an awesome exception, but even they don't get used very often.

If you want a little push: I decided to give these new MES a try and I've used them more in the past week than I have any other MES in my collection combined. I really like them, the texture is great, and they're so easy to use! I think you should swatch one and see what you think!

If you want to pass: I don't think any of the color combos are anything unique. There's a good chance you have all of these colors already.

Did I help?

I love it swatched but haven't worn it yet...probably tomorrow! I love the grey especially and I think all 3 colors together will make a simple sexy eye!

Yeah you helped, now I'm even more curious! I'm just like you with MES, I hate them with the exception of Style Black ones, but like you I don't use them often at all. To be honest, I've worn Cinderfella twice and Young Punk once, Blue Flame never.

I should just sell my other ones.

Sooo...you say these are good?

Are they so good I don't need to use Fix+ to get them show even a little bit? Do they have VERY good pigmentation? Push me a bit more please!

I thought it was kinda boring when I first saw it, but then I saw whatstyleistonickel on youtube wearing it and it was so pretty! I'm weak when I see something pretty!

 

[LittleMaryJane]

I must have gotten into MAC right during the Style Black collection because I remember I had Cinderfella in my bag and then decided not to get it. I can't say I regret it but it was pretty.

 

[lipglossdiaries]

I bought Togetherness Mineralized Eyeshadow Trio, and it's not pigmented AT ALL. I even tried using a wet brush to apply it.

I think I'm going to return it if there's no solution.

When I swatched it on my hand, it was the grey that made me buy it. I haven't tried it yet though. I'll play with it today

Holy cow! I was going to say something soooooooo similar yesterday! But I got lazy

And just when I thought of typing it today, I see your post

I was going to say.....I do not hear all this talk about BoR, HT and all the other MB's! *covers ears* La la la la laa!

My intent was always to skip these (still have to) but do you see the power of specktra??!??

lol

OK ladies and gents, I have not purchased one item from this collection. What are the must haves for someone like me (NW15/N2, black hair, green eyes)? I am not looking for lip products or MSFs (already have By Candlelight and Petticoat).

Also for those who have both, how close is the lilac side of Hang Loose to Chanel Narcisse JC?

Not even close to each other. Narcisse is def. on the pale peachy pinky side whereas HL lilac side really is a light airy lavendery lilac - very soft/pale

The pink side of HL in comparison to Narcisse is much more med. baby pink than the peachy pink in Narcisse

MAC got to me. I saw their email that free shipping is ending in 12 hours and what did I do? I placed an order. I have Togetherness MES coming to me now.

Have you tried layering it over another lipstick, like a pink lipstick? Sorry if I'm not any help. I don't have this lipstick so I don't think I will be too much help.

Do you have Bubbles l/s? I find applying that very lightly first helps alot of lipsticks on my pigmented lips.

Hi dear!

Are you interested in the blushes or es or both?

From what I have read, most liked these blushes:
Hang Loose
Band Of Roses
Happy Together

Blue My Mind was a pretty blue trio that I think a lot of people liked. Some of the other es are more neutral colors.

I used it on it's own. The grey on the lid and the purple on the crease and lower lashline, i used the light lavenderish colour on the tear duct,
