MAC - Prolongwear Discussion

[Anneri]

Btw, can anybody tell what colour the models are wearing on their lips in the promo pic? I like the colour of the model on the left a lot!

 

[TheOnlyCrystal]

I am so excited about the foundation and concealer! I am still searching for a good concealer, as I can choose between good moisturising and too light coverage (Moisturecover) or dry undereye area and good coverage (Select Cover up). Is that really true, that this foundation would not oxidize?
And thank you Mac for the foundation including a pump!

NO! Why on earth would they exclude such a popular shade?

Erine??????? So it isn't so our lovely pastey girl

 

[laylalovesmac]

I'm so sad there won't be NW15!!!! I really want to try this! Maybe I'll have them try NW20- I am kind of dark right now.

Well, I called my MA back & she looked in the book - NO NW15 boo! She said I could try the NC15?
Why do companies screw with us like this

I have no idea.

Maybe I'll try NC15, too. This foundation sounds too good to pass up.

I'm so excited for the new foundation! Does anyone know how much its gonna be?

$29.50.

I won't be getting the foundation then. NC15 makes me look like I have liver failure. I can get by with NW15, though really it's a little dark with N3 powder I can get away with it. Oh well.

 

[ultimate_makeup]

cant wait to try the lippies on! grr i wish I wasn't on vacation nowhere near a mac store!!

 

[PinkBasset]

I got a sample of the foundation and concealer. I will test them soon. The lipsticks were pretty, Overtime especially - it's beautiful. Good To Go was more red than orange but I was looking for the perfect bright orange. I must check these out more carefully next time, I was too busy with Fabulous Felines.

 

[rubyeskimo]

I'm so excited about this foundation! It sounds like it could be perfect for me (bet it isn't though!) Going to use up my Studio Moisture Tint first and then try and get a sample of this. I'm not really a concealer girl so won't be interested in that. But looking at the swatches on the mac UK site, the colours all seem a bit wrong?

So what's a girl supposed to do

What would you suggest NC15 or NW20?

And, do you know why they didn't do a NW15? Maybe all the shades are lighter?

 

[miss-lilly]

I went to the MAC store today because FF was just released and I was able to see the lipsticks. They didn't have it on display yet so I only looked and bought the ones I was interested in:
Overtime: a very pretty medium toned pink, which I found to be very wearable
Till Tomorrow: a beautiful plummy neutral and
Unlimited: a darker rosy pink, which is probably my favorite of all three

These feel nice on the lips, very creamy when I first apply them and they dry slightly afterwards but not much. I find them to be very comfortable and definitely more long lasting than the usual lipsticks. I haven't been able to test and wear them a lot since I only got them today but I'm wearing Unlimited for the last couple of hours and it hasn't moved at all even after drinking water and smoking. Also, I was experimenting by rubbing my hand on my lips and I'm happy to report that nothing came off, not even a tiny bit of color!

I don't think that the store had received the concealer and the foundation so no comments on them yet. It's too early to tell of course but I def. plan on picking more on my next visit

 

[Fiberluver]

I am after the concealer, the foundation and several of the lippies.

Well, I guess this is the end of my "No Buy" until the winter collections!!

I hope this doesn't replace my beloved SFP but who knows!!!

I have some Select foundation right now but it isn't my favorite. Since I switched back to the SFP I've found that I don't have oily breakouts at all!!!

I'm in the same boat. Should I go NC or one shade darker???

to me they run the same as all the others, with the exception of SFF which runs a bit darker in some shades. if you think about it, mineralize satinfinish doesn't have nw15 either.

i'd go with nc15. or, try nw20 and lighten it with F&B white.

I guess I'll be doing that, too!

Thanks, Erin!

I'm interested in trying the concealer if it's usable under eyes. And the lippies, woo hoo! I probably can't wear the foundation cause normal ones clog the crap outta my pores and I'm happy with my mineral foundations. Looking forward to next week!
