Lately I been even more paranoid about using up my Photo Realism quad so quick (I've used it...4 times??). Today I wanted to use it again just for shopping, but I made myself do a quick version of my everyday browns. I was not happy! Maybe because it was quick?

Anyway, tonight I got more paranoid and freaked out and said I have to get a 2nd one!

I checked and it is sold out on the maccosmetics.ca site!

I'm hoping it'll be at my local counter! I love it like crazy. Sometimes I can just stare at it

It feels like the perfect look for me (I have brown eyes) and it always looks so smooth. Just beautiful! I'd love a neutral/brown version that gives the same results! Love, Love, LOVE!

P.S. LOVE!

awww, don't feel paranoid about using it! it is a truely fabulous quad but if you did find yourself hitting the pan (which i have only ever done a couple of times over the years) you can always look in teh clearence bin section of specktra! no doubt people will have bought extra or just decided it's not for them so they'll set it on.

 

[TeresitaMC]

Awww. Thanks hun!

I hope it does all work out for the best. I feel like even 10 years from now, I'll love and need this quad. I thought about that too - either the clearance bin or ebay - or find one now so it is at cost and brand new. I'll wait a couple days and decide again

I've not yet used the items I bought from this collection, as well as those that I got from Style Black. I think it's really time for me to go on a no-buy, I obviously already have enough makeup to use.

I just need to work on my willpower.

As someone with a PRO card would you be able to buy "The Perfect Cheek" in a PRO pan refill? Has it been available as a PRO pan refill to the general MAC population?

(IMO, I would think this is not possible as it is LE.)

Thanks!

LE eye shadows and blushes are not made available in PRO pan refills. They are always in pots.

I totally agree about the no-buy. I've never "consciously" went on one but I have not used a LOT of stuff that I have and its getting quite silly.

I have sooooo much stuff to enjoy I don't know where to start

 

[LMD84]

i don't think i could do a no buy... but i've started being very very picky with what i am buying now. i mean this collection for example... my list was huge! but in the end i only got photo realism, brash and bold and push teh edge pigments. because those were the most unlike anything else i had items in my collection. no matter how bad i wanted the shadows!!!

 

[lilibat]

So Push The Edge swatches exactly like Grape/Entremauve but I found a serious and significant difference. Push the Edge presses beautifully without getting hard and difficult to use.

Just thought you might like to know.

 

[LMD84]

^^ yes push the edge is very easy to work with.

i don't wear my push the edge and bold and brash pigment often enough!

 

[dreamer246]

I haven't even used mine at all.

[GlamQueen21]

Speaking of Push The Edge pigment, I haven't worn it in awhile! I also will order Brash & Bold pigment right now.

EDIT://
Just ordered Brash & Bold pigment just now.

brash and bold is fantastic. and i bet it'll look really good on your because you have a darker skintone

also try it as a gloss! also very pretty!! and perhaps if you have a really light hand you could try it as a blusher?
