MAC - Tendertones 08 Discussion

Re: MAC Tendertones 2008

All of these are pretty sheer. I find that the more pigmented your lips are, the more sheer it will be. If you have pale lips or slightly pink, the color will show up more.
I was debating to get another but I don't think any of them will show up differently. Maybe slightly but nothing that will make you say OMG I need to have this color. However, I do like the feel and scent of these. I may get another since I use my Hush Hush so much.

Re: MAC Tendertones 2008

Pucker is a GORGEOUS color. I just received mine from the UPS man about half an hour ago, LOL. It smells soooo good and looks so pretty in the pot, that I'm afraid to try it on! I can't wait to get some others. I know these will sell out fast.

Agreed that it wears differently on everyone.
Due to the swatches & everyone loving EZ Baby, I caved & bought it & it really does not show up on me. I really didn't think it would but I figured I'd try anyway. I also bought Deep Sigh and Sweet & Nice & you can definitely see them on me...love them

Those are the ones I am planning on buying as well! I figured that they will show up on me more than the others.

If you don't mind, can you post swatches of the two on your lips? Thanks!

On me, e-z baby is like a more pigmented less shiny underage. I guess you could try that?

Last time I went to my CCO I didn't remember seeing ne Tendertones, and also I need to stay away from my CCO, I kno if I went in there I would spend WAYYYYYY too much money and there's too much stuff I want from upcoming collections to blow money on CCO stuff. But today I went and ended up getting Tread Gently instead of a Honey Bare back up and I'm soo glad I did, its soo pretty! Who knew a lemony-lime color could be so gorgeous!? And for some reason, like Honey Bare, this one shows up more on my lips. Idk why but EZ Baby did nothing color wise for my lips, just made 'em glossy...I'm still obsessed with it tho, of course. Tread Gently and Honey Bare are DEF my favorites of all the Tendertones, I'm so in love! MAC makes these perm pretty please!!!!

Re: MAC Tendertones 2008

Is EZ Baby similar at all to Tender Baby from last years release??

Not at all. Tender Baby is much pinker. TB is a watermelon pink on me, and EZ Baby is a very pale, milky, baby pink. The only similarity is that neither has any glitter or sparkle. I love them both, and they are very different.

I'll try to tomorrow, if my little one me some time to do it

but she is a super demanding toddler so I can't promise!
Also, I just got a MAC delivery & ordered Pucker & I tried that on & it also seems to give a nice color, I'm glad I got it!

Re: MAC Tendertones 2008

Is it a good thing or a bad thing that I have had EZ Baby for 4 days and there is already a pretty serious dip in the pot?!?!? Gahhhh, I need SO many backups! Why does it have to be LE

 

[jenntoz]

Re: MAC Tendertones 2008

LOL, I just took pis of my 4 tendertones & I swear in the pictures they all look the same on my lips, but in real life there is a huge difference between them all. I'm still going to post them in the swatch thread in just a few minutes after they upload, but sorry in advance if they suck & aren't the most helpful!!!

Awww no worries, it's the thought that counts!!

Re: MAC Tendertones 2008

I am getting so excited about my tendertones arriving and I 've never even owned one before!! I love lip blams and the texture looks sooo good.

The pics of EZ-Baby look so nice, I think I might not dare use it! lol

Your wallet will be better off if you don't use it. Cause if you do, you will love it and want multiple backups like me!

I know I think I will just sit and stare at it for a while, I will have 3 others to keep me going!

Seriously though I can't believe how exciting I am getting about a lip balm!

Re: MAC Tendertones 2008

I'd love it if MAC released a fluidline or so like EZ Baby - it's like how they say you should use a nude liner to bright up the eye, instead of white!

 

[Moxy]

Re: MAC Tendertones 2008

Ooooh, a milky pink fluidline? Niiiiice!

You can get Liquidlast liner in Fuchsia-ism, but it's not that baby pink colour.

So true. I have Paula Dorf's Baby Lips & Eyes enhancer pencil...just about EZ Baby color maybe a tad more peach. I use it inner rim eye bottom, & around the outside of my lips blended...makes your lips look awesome!
