MAC - Surf Baby Discussion

[gracie90]

Just put it on ebay for £20 buy it now! It costs £25.50 normally, so technically it's a bargain

OMG guys...I had a dream last night where the collection finally debuted online, but I couldn't order anything because my internet kept crashing! That better not happen when it actually releases...DX

Hellooooooooooooooo you gorgeous Specktra girlies! Just got home from my lunch out and so a Swell Baby FOTD is waiting....this colour is beautiful IMHO! And it lends itself to a smoky eye but a lighter smokey eye. I used paintpot in painterly all over the lid, short shorts as the inner corner and brow highlight, then swell baby all over the bottom half of my lid, darkening it on the outer corner with stovepipe black, which was then blended further out towards the brow! Pink cult was the blush and Angel was the l/s! I love love love these shadows, they're amazing!


































I absolutely love the nice soft smokey effect of swell baby, sometimes a smokey grey tends to have a bluish tone which isn't very flattering but this is so neutral! I can't wait to try out more looks with it

wow! you look amazing! this really makes your eyes look super blue and i love your colour placement too! thanks for sharing the pics with us!

and because i'm currently like a walking advert check out Specktra's first video tutorial done by myself - NARS Summer 2011 Tutorial

MAC should have just launched SB instead of the flop Flighty!

lol! maybe ity has gone down so bad it won't turn up in the uk?! or we will end up with loads because they will send all your left over stock here?! lol!

Question...I remember Wonder Woman releasing much earlier than it was originally intended. Anyone remember the date it launched online? I REALLY hope the same thing happens for SB.

We can only hope! But then I get anxiety about missing it

Am I the only person who is NOT into hibiscus? :O

I can't wait to buy bust out of the website! Cos i doubt this would be in Spain (I think it was out since last week so obviously they'll be sold out already).

I don't think I am into it! I think it might be too bold/orange/red for me! I'm happy with Ever Hip as a coral so I think I might skip it!

 

[ThePowderPuff]

I am skipping it too. After Marine Life, Ripe Peach and A Bite of an Apple, none of which I ever use by the way, I think I have all the coral blush I can ever use in a life time.

I've now limited my self to 3 items, this is going to be a hard decision!

I know my mom really wants hibiscus lipstick, so we will share that

I hope that they release this collection in the US soon, or I will be passing on most of it. The new Chanel & Nars summer collection are slowly but surely eating away at my make up $$. Those collections are too fabulous to pass up! MAC needs to get on the ball or lose out to the competition!

 

[hoshiakari_]

That's really sweet of you to share with your mom!

On another note, I think I may have found out how to dupe the gold shade from the blue stack!
So one less thing off my list for me. XD

 

[LMD84]

yes this is very much the way i feel

 

[RayannaBanana]

I still want Marine Life.

 

[gracie90]

Ok, most exciting fact of the day:
I went to my local CCO and found 1 Marine Life. For £14. I nearly died

You are so lucky! I live nowhere near a CCO

Crossing my fingers****

 

[gracie90]

Unfortunately, my close proximity to places selling mac hasn't done my purse any good! Back at home, we have a counter in debenhams and a CCO, both 15 minutes away, and at uni there's a freestanding and a counter

 

[JennsJewelz]

My list has been changing! I won't get paid until after the collection releases, so I've got to be pretty selective now!

Swell Baby
Saffron
Good Lovin'

... and that's it! I'll wait to try Hibiscus and the pigment stacks in person - and if they're sold out by then, it wasn't meant to be!

Hope all you ladies overseas are enjoying your goodies

I like Marine Life better than My Paradise. MP is nice, but the texture is not as fine and smooth as ML, which I feel is a higher quality product than MP, IMO.

I got Peaches blush today. I just always wanted it, because I missed out on My Highland Honey, and thought they were close. When I saw Peaches and MP next to each other in pan I thought, I wouldn't have needed both. But swatched they look more different, MP looks more coral-red, and is more pigmented.
