Yup yup yup!
Thank u for this. Because I got excited and was about to order but lord knowa this collection is not a must for meI'm definitely waiting till I see/swatch/play with @ counter. ...Holding out for Playland
I should mention we have 15% tax here, not sure what your province has. But they're $24 to start which is just a tad excessive lol.
Thanks Liba! I am taking notesF&F is fabulous, so if you don't have it, you will be very happy with Revved Up! Kittenish is not "normal" at all - it is a gorgeous pale but lightly dusty pink that is just beautiful and feminine. It works beautifully well with this finish too.
GFG is more pink coral and TD is more juicy salmon. If you don't wear your Betty Bright (shame on you - it was one of my favorites from last year), do you wear your Sushi Kiss (another one of my favorites)? If you said no to both, well then, all I can say is it's either going to be better that you buy these pencils, because they really are easy as pie to apply, which might in turn make it more convenient for you to use these bright cutie colors, or you should just stay away because you might not use them at all. Patentpink is just super cute, but to be 100% honest, if I had to choose between Patentpink and Kittenish in a showdown for most useful color, Kittenish would win. Patentpink would win for most trendy between those two. I am buying both, but my spidey sense says I will wind up wearing Kittenish more overall, since it'll work for grocery shopping as well as out on the town in a beautiful dress and is a color that could work for spring, fall and winter, while Patentpink is more spring and summer, but not for the colder months.
LOL, I've probably driven you crazy nowThis is why I am not low-buying on these. The colors + finish + ease of application is ALL THAT.
Honestly, if you want a color like the Allure model is wearing, you want TEEN DREAM, not Go For Girlie. That color is a little more pastel than TD, but not much. It's very close. Go For Girlie is muuuuuuch pinker. Teen Dream is very close to Sushi Kiss, but a little lighter and a touch more apricot, but just as bright. It's nothing like Neon Orange.
I'm so thoroughly uninterested in Proenza and only minimally interested in Playland. This is the big one, as far as I'm concerned.
And I'll be the head buffalo at the front of the line!
Right! I'm about NC30 / NW25 (according to the two Mac foundations that I own!). I have some freckles, and blue/green eyes. I have morning rose and it's a bit cool, but I can pull it off. By contrast, feed the senses washes me out. I would love to find a lighter pink that works....wouldn't it be lovely if it was kittenish!HG, you're in a much better position to know about these things from the production end, than I EVER could be, but it's not surprising to me at all. There's a reason MAC is able to come up with these products at a discount compared to other brands' versions (when they even exist).
The packaging IS very nice on them, reminds me of the lip stain pens from years back, plus so much pigment raining down. People will love them for the form factor and beautiful colors. When the Velvetease ones come out, it'll be a buffalo stampede.
It's not particularly cool, but it's rather light. It's a shade or two lighter than something like Morning Rose. What's your skin tone?

Omg...Rollergirl + Pool Boy is beautiful! I might have to add a little bit of white to get it to be that light on me though, everything shows up dark on me.I got Go For Girlie and Patentpink... still might get Teen Dream tho... and I like kittenish because I feel like I would look good in a mauve but I really don't have any. Everyone looks good in mauve right?
I got Patentpink because I just love st. germain, lime crime d'lilac, and the occ lip tar mannequin either on it's own or mixed with pool boy. Oh BTW, if you are looking for a true blue lavender, mix OCC pool boy and mannequin!!! It's INSANE beautiful, and not so chalky like lime crime lippies can be (not that I'd throw em out, they have some colors you just can't get elsewhere, even if I'm not satisfied with the texture or staying power). I got this pic from http://www.thestyleandbeautydoctor.com/2014/01/new-occ-spring-2014-lip-tar-matte-review-swatches/
I'd still love if MAC would get me this color, every collection that comes out I'm waiting for it.... My skin is like NW13, this lady has a darker skin shade than me but maybe a similar tone. Anyway, when I mix equal parts mannequin and pool boy it looks sort of halfway between her mix of mann/PB and Roller/PB. But yeah, mixology.
I got Go For Girlie because I REALLY adore salmon pink brights right now, and I would do ANYTHING for one like this:That's from allure.com. Obviously Go For Girlie is pinker, but it's in the family, and Liba says it's like BB, so I think it could be great.
Still considering Teen Dream because it's also kind of in that salmon family. But I already have Neon Orange, so if it's just really orange I already have plenty. Guess I'll wait for a swatch.... But that's the color lining the top of the upper lip in the promo photo (I asked a MUA in the chat).
EVERYBODY POST AS SOON AS YOU HAVE SOME COLORS!!! I STILL HAVE LIKE 40$ BIRTHDAY MONEY TO SPEND!!!
kittenish is warmer than morning rose and a little less dusky. i think you may really like it!!!! I'm nc15 and i can't wear many light pinks, but this one works on me fine. It's not super light either, just lightish.Right! I'm about NC30 / NW25 (according to the two Mac foundations that I own!). I have some freckles, and blue/green eyes.
