MAC Temperature Rising Collection (May 2013)

[cindypltnm81]

Cool! You not so long posted wondering when they'd be available again and now it is. Grab it before it's gone again. LOL.

I have 7 palettes to convert. I only purchase 3 palettes with 2 eye inserts and 1 blush insert. I wld've love to get them all at once....if I didn't need the inserts...I cld purchase all 7. I think not having the inserts out shadows and blushes at risk!

Finally wore my RFL today although I was pretty light handed with it and my makeup in general. It was just too hot today lol. Didn't even bother to do my hair...just threw it in a ponytail and called it a day lol. Also used BMS and Altered Beige (with a little chocolate lip liner).

Natural is good when it extreme hot out. Pretty

Very pretty, natural-fresh-face looking BFE

You know...I STILL haven't touched my RFL yet.....hmmm...need to work that in sometime soon. This is what happens when you've bought way too many things close together. I feel like as soon as I successfully got my TR items I was already on to plotting on AAO...and RiRi...and Nudes and Metallics...lol

I still have things I haven't used as well

 

[butterflyeyes]

Thank you ladies! Sorry posting from my phone and multi quote just won't act right lol

I'm more towards NC25 but Soft Sand is very pretty on my skin.

How does it compare to sun dipped or refined golden?

Can't help you with those, don't have them.

I applied Ripe For Love with a stippling brush today and actually liked it better than the day before. Who woulda thunk it?

Beautymarked is a color that leaves me a little confused. I wish it applied the way it appears in the pan. It's not horrible or anything...but the "red pearl" doesn't really show except for a few stray pieces.

I had my makeup done last week when my store was having an event. I wanted her to use the TR quad and she got the red sparkle in Beautymarked to show up really well. She used a neutral Pro Longwear shadow on my lids first (I think it was It's Always Sunny), then laid down the more mid tone shadow from the quad on top. Finally, she lined my eyes with pencil liner and then applied Beautymarked on top THEN blended it upwards in little swirls using a 217 - that really got the red glitter all over the lid and really looking strong.

She told me she prefers using the white haired brushed to blend because they're stiff enough to give some control and not just mush everything together muddily.

Thanks. I will try this method.

what chocolate liner did you use?

Estée Lauder Chocolate #23. I've been using that for at least 12 years! I've had the actual automatic pencil for that long surprisingly lol. The print has long since rubbed off. Luckily the refills haven't been changed so they still fit. It's been my go to lip pencil for tweaking almost any color and making it work for me. That pencil is always in my purse...

As you can see it's almost time for me to pop another refill in! Interestingly, I've never used any other Estée Lauder products and can't begin to tell you how I started using this one (pretty sure it had to be because of someone's mom lol)

 

[Serenityy]

I'm super happy to receive a replacement for my melted Sheer Seduction lipstick thanks to purplerinne!

Sheer Seduction is just too perfect to pass up for me, and I'm glad I didn't.
I'm officially done with this collection and I hope everyone loves their goodies from this collection.

thank you I never Estee Lauder products but I think its kind of cool that you only have to buy a refill.

I LOVE the 217!! Pretty sure I could do my whole face with just that brush if I had to.

 

[allthingsglam]

I just got my Ripe For Love today and I'm ABSOLUTELY hands down glad I didn't pass up on this one! WOW! What a lovely peachy pink blush! I'm glad to add it to my stash. 

So pretty I make hit pan on this blush

I have never had the urge to try any of their other products but I absolutely love this lip liner and the fact that it uses refills. It's actually double ended (the other end has a lip brush but you can remove it and put another lip pencil refill in it)

I LOVE the 217!! Pretty sure I could do my whole face with just that brush if I had to.

The only brushes I have 2 of are the 217, 288 and 235 - I could definitely do my whole face with those 3!

Pretty, butterflyeyes

I love the beautiful glow that RFL adds to your face!

And the lip combo is lovely too.

Thank you! When I got home I put a little more RFL on my cheeks and that sealed the deal. I really love this blush! And I've actually worn this lip combo a lot lately. It's quick and it's worked with all of my natural looks during these 90+ degree weather. This GA humidity has been torture! And tonight's heavy storms are typical after several hot days here
