I was gonna say the same thing! I checked too!
The ingredients for one of the new ones she posted (can't remember which now) is the exact same, and in the exact same order, as rubenesque. 100% the same.
Just proves my initial theory that they're the exact same product with the exact same formula (varying slightly based on colour). I think people are more likely to buy a product with "pro longwear" in the name.
Wow, so organized! I recently got a lipstick organizer, but am still looking for better ways to store everything else. I actually have a tower of 6 drawers that's a few feet high, the top 4 drawers of which are shallower than the bottom two. The top 3 drawers are my main makeup drawers. Top is lips, second is eyes, third is foundation/blushes/highlighters/etc. Oh, and the fourth drawer has my small n/p collection and my very few makeup backups. Love how organized your drawer looks though...I think I need to take another look at ways to get my own stash so nice! I don't think your stash is anything to be embarrassed about, but I like your "if it doesn't fit, I don't need it" way of thinking. My lipstick organizer holds 60 lipsticks, and I have a similar mindset as you: If it gets filled up, some old lipsticks have to go before I get any new ones!My hubby can see my collection up close and personal. It's in the top drawer of our vanity. Here it is:
It's gotten to the 'I'm kind of embarrassed of it' size, although I know it's not big by Specktra standards. Still, how much makeup can I possibly need? There's virtually no chance of hitting pan on any face product other than powder. This drawer is at maximum capacity and I won't let it get any bigger. If it doesn't fit in here, I don't need it.
Is it an alex!?
Nah, just this plastic tower, kind of like the stuff tupperware is made out of I guess, lol. But it does what it needs to!
Gotcha! I'm redoing my makeup area, so I'm taking a trip to ikea next week. The alex will be mine!!!
Thanks!I got your back, girl.
Majorly annoying imho. "Dear customer, we have a brand new product! - Oh, sorry, we don't." Pah! Not rising any trust there, MAC!
Good point. What threw me off is that she usually blends stuff out when she does looks using multiple shadows. Either way, I'm sticking to lighter shades until I get a bit more practice using Paint Pots on their own.
It's hard to blend two p/p as they usually dry before you can do a lot of blending. However, as most people usually put an e/s on top, it does make a big difference to the end result.
Yes, that's what I've done so far too. Although Bare Study is a very light colour I find that it noticeably intensifies the shade I put over it. Perhaps darker paint pots will make darker colours pop a lot more?
Personally, I prefer the lighter shades, but if you wear smokey eyes on a regular basis, go for a darker p/p
Did regular customers get their email yet?Funny how they are always late with the emails.
Hm.. maybe I should pick up Skinny Jeans instead. I love the creaseless cream eyeshadow formula so.They don't really look similar though if I compare swatches.
Got mine today at 11:05am!
