. I guess these blushes and lipgelees will be perfect for those quick/no time to get ready times

Which would go better with So Sweet, So Easy and Florida?

Preppy without hesitation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm the type that likes pigmented lipglosses so that's why! Also, the color just really pops! It's going to look hott in the summer!! Its gorgeous!!!! Shift to Pink- on me, it shows a slight lilac/purple tint, but you mostly just see glitter. It's pretty though- but Preppy is just GORGEOUSSSSSSSS!!!! Yea Lush & Bright is amazing!!!! I don't have any corally lipglosses and this one is just so unique. I think I might get a backup of preppy and lush & bright! In my opinion, Preppy would go better with the 2 blushes. If you like bright colors and hot pinks- go for preppy.

But, my wishlists for the spring collections are reasonable, so I don't feel so bad. Besides that, these blushes, and the lipgelees are unique to my collection. That's my justification because before last week, I had never owned a creme blush or a lipgelee.

Yes, then you deserve it! Aw, good hubby.

You actually have reasonable wish lists for
Spring

Na ah - No waaay! Geesh - your eyes look beautiful....naked

 

[only1angel]

^ Thanks

Wish I felt the same as you do though lol.

I went to the store today to take a look at this collection...OMG!! Beautiful!! My hubby gave me money because I have not bought makeup in about 2 months, now that is a long time for me. I got the three cremeblushes except the orange one.

I am so tempted to go back and get the pearlmate powder....how can you resist that package..HOW!!!! LOL

FREAKING AMAZING COLORS............

 

[only1angel]

^Yea, I wanted to check out the Pearlmatte face powder too, but it was sold out at my MAC counter

Guess I will always just wonder........lol. But let me know if you get it and what you think. MAYBE I will get it online. I just dont know if it's a must have for me. The packaging is too cute- But I have to STOP buying just for the packaging lolol

elegant-one: I posted a lip swatch of Optimistic Orange in the swatch thread if you were wondering what it looked like

audreynicole: I also posted lip swatches of the 2 lipgelees you questioned me about. In the pic for some reason, they look extremely similar. But in person, preppy is much more pigmented while shift to pink has a slight tint. It almost reminds me of Money Honey......Actually these are very similar now that I'm comparing the two. Shift to Pink is Money Honey in lipgelee form lol. If you have Money Honey dazzleglass, then definitely pass on shift to pink. Basically, if you want something light colored or just to layer on top of a lipstick- go for shift to pink. If you want something to pop, and wear alone- go for preppy................

GET PREPPY ITS GORGEOUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!! lololol

Yes

and yes

I too am singing the praises of these AMAZING blushes. After getting my first two on Monday, I made a special trip to the counter to get the other two. Optimistic Orange is the STAR! It is so gorgeous on!! It is indeed a peachy rose shade that looks amazing **sheered out**. LOL! I hope that MAC brings these back and makes them perm! I would love to see a mauvey-rose color and more of a pinkish-brown color in this formula. They last forever on my cheeks, stay true to color, and I have not had any breakout issues.

Shhh...I also picked up all of the lipgelees. This collection has been my favorite in a LONG time and the funny thing is, I really cannot stand Lilly Pulitzer!

Holy cow! You are GORGEOUS!

 

[only1angel]

OOPS! LOL sorry

but this collection is just sooooo amazing

lol.

And sometimes enabling can be good (except for our wallets of course lol). You know how many times you guys enabled me here in specktra? I've purchased most things in the past that I thought I would NEVER buy, and then ended up being glad I did, thanks to the enablers here hahaha.

I thought it would be funny coming from miss queen enabler herself

I'm really glad that you posted your pictures of OO <---

 

[nunu]

I want 2 lipgelee's (lush & bright and preppy) and i also want Joie-De-Vivre creme blend blush

 

[AudreyNicole]

Only1angel - that you SO much for the swatches. They have confirmed that I need them all.

They all look amazing on you

So weird, but I had totally planned on passing on this collection, and it has turned out to be one of my favorites in a LONG time. Between Love Lace, Lucky Green, and Lillyland, I have fallen in love with MAC all over again.

 

[only1angel]

^Thanks

No problem at all! And yes, you NEED them all lol! Let us know what you think when you get them

 

[coachkitten]

Thanks for the pictures of the orange blush Only1angel! Now I know that I need to have the orange blush!
