Me 3!

But I know deep down I won't buy it let alone like it. Its pretty to look at in the tube. Just not on the lips or my teeth will start to look like chrome yellow e/s! Not pretty et al.

I agree, love gentle. I won't be buying any new ones though. I have like the whole sonic chic and grand duo collections and some from the recent one. None of the new ones look unique either. If there was a bright true red or a true lavender, Id be all over that!

this collection is looking like a pass for me. I really don't care for MSF's (you can think that I'm weird if you like). I even swapped my Petticoat yesterday. I much prefer beauty powders to the MSF's

I agree with you. I have swapped/sold all of my MSFs except for Porelain Pink (because it is not frosty), and New Vegas (because the gold shimmer is pretty on the neck/chest area sometimes). I have Stereo Rose on my list as a possibility, but honestly, I prefer powder products with no shimmer. I just got Hipness, and am planning to get Instant Chic blush from Pret a Papier, so I may very well skip it too. I think part of me wants it because "OMG it's Stereo Rose!!", but I know I won't reach for it often. I am not totally sold on it either. I have sworn off MBs too. I NEVER touch the ones I have and have started to sell them off. I am finally learning what I will use and not use. Took me long enough.

I know I think I'm gonna swap all of my mb's too. I do like the ones I have, especially Pleasantry (most gorgeous pink). However i think I've become sorta allergic to them. Every time I wear a mb I feel like my cheeks look much redder than before after I take the blush off. The skin there looks pretty irritated for some reason

I love beauty powders coz they give a soft sheen without any frost. I love Pearl Blossom from Barbie for pink highlight and Shell Pearl for peachy gold highlight

Hi there,
May I ask which makeup remover you're using? I've got sensitive skin as well so while I'm psyched about getting stereo rose and all, I'm worried about havin reactions to it... Can anyone advise on whether a lot of people have had reactions to MSFs and how we can test for reactions?

I don't remember if it's swipe it on the inside on the elbow or at the side of the face...

Glad it looked great on you doll! I wore merrily the other day and it just looked like I had a rash on my cheeks. Maybe I'm not blending it properly...

 

[dreamer246]

My favorite MBs are Merrily, Superdupernatural and Light Over Dark! Love, love, love those!

Gentle is pretty too, but the first time I wore it was the very first time I had my appointment at the hospital, so I'm kinda hesitant to wear it these days. Too many memories of what triggered a medical nightmare for me (that is still ongoing).

I will go to the movies tonight and I will wear MB Gentle again. Still one of my faves!

I have sensitive skin and so far I have been fine with the Mineralize products.
As for testing you could either use the inside of you arm or elbow of your neck. For stuff like this I prefer to use the side of my neck under my ear (hope that makes sense

), because there I am sure the product does not rub off.
Keeping my fingers crossed that you are not allergic to it.

Thank you so much! T_T I'm trying it out right now, actually...
ARGH. I can't stand the thought of not being able to use Stereo Rose and the rest.

I never actually thought of using it like that!
I have it from the McQueen collection and it is so beautiful, but I still havn't found a use for it

If MAC released a properly metallic silver version of it though...wow! I would use that everyday!

I don't get why they havn't done a really baby pink one yet either, I think that would be pretty and useable as a blush in the same way that petticoat is.

There are a lot of pretty blushes around, so even if you are allergic...
Lots of stuff to choose from

Keeping my fingers crossed!
