MAC Temperature Rising Collection (May 2013)

[KrystalAnne]

I keep going back and forth on the blushes:/ I only want to get 1. I have Archie's PP blush. I am thinking Hot Nights blush is very similar. I also have Immortal Flower. I am thinking Ripe For Love is similar to that. HELP! my fellow Specktrites

HN is more similar to PP than RFL is to IF. I don't think RFL and IF are similar. I would say to go for RFL if you're looking for something more different from what you already own.

That's so pretty on you!!! How does it feel? Gritty/smoothe?

It was just a tiny bit gritty. Mostly smooth though. I don't see a problem with it.

beautiful swatches!! How was Caliente? Thanks! Personally, I found it had to much glitter.

Thank you for bringing me back down to earth. I kept going back and forth on whether I should get it after seeing the swatches so far. I'm not a fan of glitter on my lips, so I can skip this.

So is RFL similar to Stereo Rose? That's my go to blush and the dome is already flattened so if its similar I would be extra happy

RFL is NOT like IF! :nope:

GREAT! That is actually the one I was leaning toward the most. I am going to get it. THANKS! Erine

I still dunno wat my final list is

Okay, I'm only going to get FMP amd RFL once it launches on site and then go check out the rest in store. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!

I understand how you feel? I think I like the green bc it reminds me of Forest Green pigment! But I really have my hopes up for the TR quad! The colors r decent but I'm hoping I can pull off a pretty look

I looked in my collection and i have a very similar color but it's a pigment so I may give up the BMS quad. I originally had the TR quad on my list, but I have similar colors plus I have beauty marked eyeshadow. I'm sure you can pull off a pretty look with both quads.

Soft Serenade Lipglass will possibly be more interesting swiped on over a lipstick to brighten it and give it sparkle. It doesn't seem to have enough... oomph... on its own.

I'll make that my mission!
