Thank you, Tahlia!!! I'm getting this lippie. Too gorgeous not to have in my stash. So this is FOF?! I might need two of these bad boys. I need to start checking my returns. I may have enough for two lippies and then I will purchase the rest.



I uploaded this in the indulge thread but Erine thinks it could be FOF.

The more I'm looking at it, and thru the process of ellimination,i think it's FOD and not FOF, tho mac really needs to rethink their descriptions. Wine is more red, and that lipstick is definitely more plummy in colour. Is it sad that that's been bugging me all night? :crazy:
Someone added the tag #talkthattalk but no confirmation on it. Do you think the lip could be the one from RiRi Fall?

I am just ready for these to come out like now!!! Being new to the make up world (not foundation) I am lipstick deprived. My no buy is going to be great for saving up for this collection

Thank you! This is exactly why fall collections are my favorite of all and the ones I feel the most comfortable in, take all the pinks and nudes and leave me the vampy ones!!

Ladies this is Flat out Fabolous lippie. I had to follow that IG user to check her awsome Pics and updates.
Then that makes the other one FOD or TTT!!!

Could be! Either way its mine (+BUs)!!!
That's gorgeous! I wonder how it compares colorwise to MAC's Night Violet mattene.
Appears to be very similar. Still getting it tho!!!

Wow, those liners are sooooooo hot!!!!

I love that PLW liner formula like crazy. I only bother with liner when I need my lipstick to stay on like iron and those babies do all the heavy lifting like champs. The basic color range is kind of strange and everything leans so brown, so these are awesome. I think I may be more excited for the liner than for the retro mattes.
You're not alone! I LOVE the PLW formula for both lips and eyes, so I am all kinds of stoked about these liners!!! This collection could be trouble for my wallet.

erine, is it true that concealers for undereyes should be NW and a shade lighter? For instance Im a NC20, so I should use NW15? Could I just use my prolongwear in NC20 that I currently use for my face for undereyes as well?

Hi Josephine, I hope I am able to help, but from my personal experience, I have used both a NC30 concealer and a NW25 concealer for under my eyes. I do the first when I am lazy, and I find that it doesn't hide the undereye circles as well. I don't have horrible undereye shadows, but they are visible, and I feel that when I use an NC30 concealer on it, it appears less obvious but you can still see it. It appears somewhat "flat" to me in terms of colour when I use the same concealer all over. That's probably because I like the look where it's ever so slightly brighter around the eyes... like you went out in the sun for a bit with sunglasses on. It sort of invites the question "did you not sleep well last night?" when I use the same concealer, but when I use an NW25 concealer, I find that it looks more natural. However, be careful with a NW concealer- if it is too light, it might give you a greyish cast. It happened when I was NC35 and I still used the NW25 concealer.

I recommend checking out the mineralized concealer. I am currently using the last bits of my Studio Sculpt concealer which has been my HG ever since it came out, but now that it has been discontinued, I have found a replacement and that's the mineralized concealer. It's incredibly brightening, though slightly wet looking when it is blended out, so you should very lightly powder over it. The coverage is also relatively good.

As you know we are skin twins, and i wear nw20 for concealer. NW is generally more ideal for under eye concealers, but not always. Aside from the nc/nw factor, it should match your skintone. Right now there the HUGE trend of undereye highlighting with a lighter shade of concealer, which i despise with a passion, but to each their own. Hopefully that trend will pass soon, I'm keeping my fingers crrosed!
Got Rebel yesterday and now all I want to wear are fall vampy lippies!
Oh yeah!
