Re: MAC Tendertones 2008

Okay I will ONLY get EZ Baby if MAC restocks it online! <--This is what I must tell myself over and over again! Haha. I dunno. I personally don't think TT are amazing but they are fun. I adore my ol' Soft Note from last year but do I want another??? That milky pink loves sooo nice.

Re: MAC Tendertones 2008

OMG! guys, i got my hands on my first two tendertones today- EZ Baby and Honey Bare................... HUGE RAVE FOR BOTH!! im NC/W10 with very pigmented lips and im just sooo impressed of how perfectly the tendertones actually tone down my lips!! i so didn't expect this!!

now i have one more EZ Bab,y, Hush Hush, and Sweet Tooth coming in the mail, but i am definitely going to pick up a couple more of Honey Bare, at least one more EZ Baby and possibly some other colours!

so thanks everyone for pushing my back to buy these expensive lipbalm lol
if it wasnt for you guys, i wouldn't have even looked at them in the store.

You should try out Tread Gently! It looks strange in the pot but it tones down my fairly pigmented lips perfectly!! Isn't Honey Bare soo pretty?!!These things are so addicting, I too am so glad I checked them out bc at first I thought $15 for a lip balm was just crazy but they really amazing!!!

Re: MAC Tendertones 2008

I guess MAC is going to restock E-Z Baby. It says coming soon on the website. I still need to get to my counter and try some of these.

oh god, this is exactly what happened to me when i took photos of all the tendertones on my lips. i keep finding comments on websites saying "ohh how crap are those photos, they all look the same on her lips" and i feel like i have to jump in and say "nooo!!! i swear they are different IRL, they just dont photograph well" haha

I like them all. Hush Hush gives you a golden sheen to your lips and Sweet Tooth is a nice pinky coral. I suggest these two!

I can taste the SPF too, but I love these so much! TTs are wayyyy better than TLCs!

If you haven't chosen yet, get Pucker!

It's one purchase you will never regret.

I have restricted myself too, but I really want to go back to get a backup of Pucker and perhaps picking up Take A Hint and Sweet & Nice.

Now I want to check out EZ Baby.

Indeed. Everyone's lips will wear it differently.

My Sweet Tooth has a dent in it too and its been only a week!

On my swatches, they look similar too, but in real life I can see the differences.

Re: MAC Tendertones 2008

Sweet Tooth is becoming my favorite the more I wear it!

Today I'm wearing:
Sweet Tooth - lips
Shore leave all over lids to brow, then lightly tapped TAN pigment from lash line to crease - eyes
Joyous BPB on apples of cheeks - face

Its light summery fresh looking

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE Sweet Tooth! I want a lipstick the exact shade that ST is in the pot!

Sounds beautiful, but puuulease stop! I don't want to want anymore of these!

I got EZ Baby, am swapping for Honey Bare, and planning on a backup of EZ Baby with my Cool Heat haul, and now I want Sweet Tooth! I am considering skipping the CH Slimshines, to get more tendertones

But..but...I really do love Sweet Tooth! They could make a Sharpie Marker the color that ST is in the pot...& I would permanently color my lips that color its so pretty on!

I guess I could do that with Pucker too

Re: MAC Tendertones 2008

Re: MAC Tendertones 2008

Well I am glad I got the E-Z baby (it was the last one at my counter). I was on the fence because it looked milky, but it looks like a soft gorgeous pink on me! Thanks ladies
