It only came out in the MAC near to me today and I didn't get a chance to go and check it out. So I ordered from the website last week I got Bright future e/s, soft force e/s, and night manoeuvres e/s ( I have nothing like it, although it's not as brown as I was hoping... the website described it as dark charcoal brown with pearl hmmm), Pink Rebel L/d and my two favourites...... Sun Rush L/D, and Sunsational L/S Sunsational is so pretty but my lips aren't overly pigmented so it shows up fairly well with two coats. In sad news, my Soft force arrived broken the whole eyeshadow fell right out of the pan.. balls, very unimpressed. I can't wait to try my lustre drops!!!!!!!! I'm really wanting to try Eversun BPB and A bronzer but I don't know if I will get a chance to head down to the city and swatch them...Arg! Ohh LIberated and Gold Rebel necessary or no??????

OMG---your kitty is too cute!!!! I wish my hubby wasn't allergic

.
You should email MAC customer service and tell them your eyeshadow was broken---they (usually) will send you a new one for free!!!

Haha yeah, I love being right but I would be all polite about it too

Yeah I'll call or stop by just to let them know, I'm sure they will appreciate it.

I totally agree! Compared to my other polishes, mercenary dried super fast.

Really? I love squeeze tubes wayyyy better than doe or brushes. That way I get the gloss over lippies without the applicator getting covered and ruined by whatever lippie I am putting it over.

 

[TISH1124]

Yeah most people do...However I am weird

 

[BeautyPsycho]

I don't like squeeze tubes neither, you usually can't control how much stuff comes out and you can't apply it precisely enough.

You can always wipe your applicator off of a tisue or something before puting it back into your lipgloss.

Today I got:

BNB (OMG so beautiful especially w/Gold Rebel)
Night Manoeuvres
Vibrant Grape
Solar Riche
Mercenary (One of my favorite items in the whole collection. This is a MUST have nail polish. Of course, check your stash to make sure you don't have something similar. I've never owned a nail polish like this before.)
Violet Fire (I love the fact that it's sheer which makes it great for every day use and you can build it up)

Boyfriend got me Style Warrior and I already had Liberated and Sun Rush.

Will probably go back and get Purple Rite, Gold Rebel, Soft Force, and Golden Bronze.

Pink Rebel disappointed me *pouts* I was hoping I could use it as a blush. Maybe I had bad lighting.

 

[BeautyPsycho]

Ugh, I hate sheer n/p.

Ditto, particularly when I'm at work, i can't just haul out a lip brush or wand and gloss up, but squeeze tube way easier. I like my l/g in tubes to be sheer, since I have no mirror to see if I'm colouring inside the lines or not (this is a huge issue for me since I have a tremor in my hands).

I don't mind the standard l/g doefoot, brush, etc when not at work though, as I can access a mirror much easier.

I've just realised that I've been off specktra for three days and I've missed out on 30 days of this thread...

As I'm not really able to read all 30 pages (had read all the thread up until then) can anyone please catch me up as to anything significant that I've missed? Pretty Please?

(I have a good excuse... hubby was in a motorbike accident Tuesday night and I havent touched my laptop since then)

TIA

 

[MissCrystal]

i went and got gold rebel l/g its so pretty and went to look at the collection more .. wow those lustre drops are soo tiny they should be like $5 lol

 

[BrokefromMAC]

LOL well now I feel lazy. I could just wipe off the wand and yet I don't and complain lol. Do you guys think that refined golden bronzer would be too dark for me, or should I say orange. I am really afraid of the oompa loompa look. I am NW25.

 

[TISH1124]

MrsMay^^ Oh sweetie I hope he is okay...you have been missed!!!

I think it would be great on you...Solar Riche may give you a orange tint

OMG she is beautiful. And Brie is an awesome name (it's my favourite cheese). Sorry to hear about your Soft Force

I actually find soft force to be kinda meh anyways, I should have saved my money.

Is he okay??? That's really scarey!

MsMay I hope that your DH is going to be okay.

MissVegas that kitty in the Hello Kitty traincase is one of the cutest things I have seen in a long time! So cute!!

*high five* that's what I do too lolz

I'm not a fan of squeeze tubes too

I like the dazzleglass applicator the best..you know..the brush kind. But I'm still a lip brush girl for most lip products. Sure it's a huge hassle but I love using it for the precise applications.

Edit: MrsMay, hope he's alright!!
