MAC- Spring Color Forecast Discussion

[LMD84]

the glosseslook lovely but i shall be skipping due to the amount of glosses i have!

but they look fabulous!!

 

[capmorlovesmac]

Especially Almondine and Kumquat look lovely!

But I am still (since the Chill collection

with only one exception for a Kitty Kouture d/g) on a Lipglass no buy. I don't have that many.. maybe 25.. but enough of every color family and on the lips colors that look a wee bit different in the tube look the same on the lips anyhow. Money saved.

I am losing a bit of my interest for the blushes

so now the only thing I really would love to buy is still the purple quad.

A little dissapointed with Gold Dust. I wanted a peachy gloss with that collection that would look more like a peaches n' cream shade, just like the shade of the new ChG Peachy Keen that will come out with the Up and Away collection, Gold Dust on the other hand has more of an orangy gold tone, reminds me of Queen Bee which doesn't look that good on me.

i have a billion pink lipglosses and although they are all different you wouldnt know when i wear them, they all look the same! so i must stop buying lipgloss especially pink ones!

Their is a picture of Pink Burst in Marie Claire magazine. It looks like Show Orchid with a frost finish. It looks pretty.

I've been avoiding this thread like crazy! I try not to think too far ahead for collections, especially for one this darn big. I'm sucked in now, though b/c this is the next one. I will catch up on this thread. I will also make a list of what I want and see my damage. It just sucks, though b/c I know when I see swatches I'll be tempted to add/remove things.

^^Talking about future collections is one of the things that makes it so fun. It's a month away, so quickly time flies.

Plus, sometimes when I am applying said makeup, I hum "The hills are alive with the sound of music", don't know why, but it makes me happy.

And that was what you call a TMI MOMENT on my part.

That's cute! Yeah I noticed last year how fast it flew thru when it came to some collections! I need to get crackin on my list so I know what to budget for luckily I have a Nordies giftcard and note to help ease some of the blow!

 

[shontay07108]

I got my list and I am pleasantly surprised that it isn't more than what I usually spend. After I work in my logic, knowing that I have too many blushes and glosses and going for colors that I don't really have, this is what I am left with:

Forecast One
Lipglass- Electra Fuchsia
Shadow- Very Violet

Forecast Two
Shadows- Hot Hot Hot & Straw Harvest

Forecast Three
Lipglass- Lavender Wind & Purple Rage
Blush Ombre Vintage Grape ($25

)

That's a grand total of $110.50

The only reason I'm getting the blush is that I don't have a grape colored Nars blush. I think the Ombre blush will go well with the 2 lippies I'm getting. I have On A Mission, but it's much more sheer than this seems to be.

 

[Boasorte]

hmmm I need to make a new list
I think All I want is a blush ombre, both quads, a lipstick and a gloss.. hm idk about the gloss I don't usually buy LE lipglosses, the last one I bought was Nice to be Nice ( HK collection)
Oh yes time certainly does flY!

 

[Karmasluv]

I am getting EVERYTHING!!!!!!!

 

[iheartmakeup]

Colour 4 Quad

clockwise from top left:

Manila Paper - Pale frosted white gold (Veluxe Pearl)
Flip - Bronze gold (Frost)
Creole Beauty - Frosted dark golden brown (Frost)
Aztec Brick - Frosted true copper (Veluxe Pearl)

Onto the swtatches (without a base). Gah! Why did I swatch such a thin line of Manila paper?!

Top-Bottom: Manila Paper, Flip, Creole Beauty, Aztec Brick
