MAC - Style Warriors Discussion

[NernersHuman]

I got my package yesterday and I adore the Vibrant Grape and Bright Future shadows, as well as the Pink Lustre Drops.

The Tribalist lipstick...suffice it to say I don't know WHAT I was thinking here. I'm an NW 15, so I probably don't have to tell you that I look like I've been dead for 10 years with this color on. Even my fiance, who is supportive of most anything I put on my face, took one look and said..."Yeah, that's not your color."

Sigh, back it goes.

^^^ lol....Tribalist is a VERY dark color even on my NC45...so I can only imagine....It was actually far too dark for even me to pull off

Ernie... your FOTD is gorgeous! And the sandals are great too!

You're making me rethink Purple Rite (must stay strong!). Maybe if I can b2m for it I'll grab it!

I am still thinking of getting Bright Future, but I have time to think about this since the counters aren't releasing this collection till next thursday. I made a quad last year using all the neo-sci-fi e/s minus expensive pink (which i already had). But I never use the peachy one (the name escapes me now and i depotted it), so I may replace that with Bright Future, i think it'll go awesome with the other three, irc they were magnetic fields, femme fi and and the bronzey shade. Alright, it's bugging me now that I can't remember the names!

Edit... i looked it up (love specktra!) Evening Aura was the peachy shade, time & space the bronzey one! Yup, Bright future will fit perfectly in EA's spot!

 

[blinkymei]

^^ stv... time&space for the bronzey one

... I only know that because I have that and femme fi from that collection

 

[stv578]

Thanks blinkymei! I ended up looking up neo sci-fi! I've had too many brain farts lately, after a while, all that info that has gone missing starts to get to me, lol!

 

[gigglegirl]

nora, i'm waivering on bright future....for me i'm like i have a few golden colours, but really how much will i wear a bright yellow?

i've ordered online from this collection twice (yes, i am weak!!) but am going to wait for the rumored fall brights items. lol well thats what im saying right now.....

but i think bright future and magnetic fields could be awesome!! ooh and femme fi (I <3 that one!)

 

[stv578]

I agree Hannah, I don't see myself reaching for yellows all too often, reason I don't really have any! But I could see it being a nice accent colour in an otherwise neutral eye, the same way i apply teals. I'll probably end up getting it!

 

[TISH1124]

^^ I agree...BF is not a color I see wearing alot...But it seemed like a color that if I skipped I may regret later....so that got the best of me and in the cart it went....

 

[lipglassjunkie]

^^I ended up ordering BF last night, because I feel the same way. Think it might sell out & looks like a fun pop of color especially with neutrals. I was thinking it might look nice with my Tempting quad from CoC, just leaving out the green e/s(was it Bitter?). That green shade was another e/s I was drawn to & didn't think I'd wear alot, but I do. Hope I feel the same about BF. Ernie after seeing your picture, I'm really excited to get it! Looks beautiful & summery! Uh oh, I ended up ordering Tribalist (and Sunsational) last night. Looks like I'll be playing around with what to wear with it, maybe a little Sunsational w/ it?

 

[Boasorte]

I'm on my way to MAC!! Hopefully I will get more than one thing

 

[snowflakelashes]

My stuff came in yesterday I am so amazed.

If only I wasn't out of foundationg I'd rock makeup this weekend lol. I think I might try and put a tiny bit of lustre drops into my moisturizer though... maybe... lol

 

[blinkymei]

I think BF is more wearable than Sharp (i think that was the name, the green yellow from tempting quad) because for me, one swipe of BF is a yellow gold color not the super bright taxi cab yellow (which you can make with more swipes of BF) and you can always tone it down a bit by blending with a highlighter color.

I got only BF because I know if I saw another yellow in a quad or palette it would not be good as BF because of its veluxe pearl finish... lol, my hunch only. I've been trying to ban myself from getting single e/s unless they're truly unique because I'm trying to save more money by getting palettes and quads

... remember fall & dsquared collection! lol

 

[Mabelle]

i wasn't feeling anything in this collection. Which is too bad cause the packaging is so hot.

 

[MzzRach]

I think those that got Bright Future will be happy they did. I own (and seriously love) Sharp, but BF is such a perfect primary yellow with a creamy texture and shimmer.

Yellow is so wearable, especially as an accent. More versatile than one might think.

 

[gigglegirl]

....crap this is kinda sad, maybe even lame. uh, my second order I did yesterday included bnb, gold rebel l/g (the pairing of these two looks awesome!), sun rush lustre drops AND *drum roll please* bright future. So I'm apparently wavering on buying it IN MY MIND but itll be on its way to me.

I'm so dumb. But I'm going to hold off on vibrant grape, I think there are other great purples that I may already have or can get in future.

I thought you might have been able to wear it better than some us fair-skinned girls Tish. Who CAN wear Tribalist?? Wonder if it will end up at the CCO's sooner rather than later.

I'm wearing Satin Taupe with Bright Future today. You can pair BF with almost anything!

 

[lipglassjunkie]

You all are making super excited to get BF!!!

Oh & I love my Sharp e/s so this will be Awesome that this is more wearable!

Anyone get Tribalist that likes it? I'm really regretting ordering this

, I'm so attracted to dark colors. But we will see...

 

[LMD84]

i'm still excited for this when in comes to the uk in a couple of weeks! although i have had to cut my list down to vibrant grape, bright future and only one of the lustre drops. i did want a gloss and lipstick but can't justify spending on it. we're moving house in 3 weeks which has all happened really quickly. so have different things to spend my money on at the moment! plus i'm stressed so am not getting much pleasure out of my mac at the moment! usually i love putting my face on in the mornings and spending time picking colours - now i'm all about quickly putting some colours on and out the door!

 

[Asphyxia]

I can not stress how beautiful Sun Rush Lustre drops looks with Studio Fix fluid foundation. I just got a little pump of the foundation and 2 drops for the perfect glow.
