MAC - Monogram Swatches - Nov 08
Place all your Monogram swatches and product photographs in this thread - please ensure that your images are clear, in focus and as colour-accurate as possible! For the sake of clarity, I ask that official product images and swatches (those that you would find on a mailer postcard, sourced from MAC or posted on the official MAC website) are not posted in this thread.

Please remember that Specktra has a posting guideline that all posted images be no wider than 640 pixels or higher than 800 pixels - if your image is any larger than that, please make a text link to the image instead.

  • This thread is for pictures only - please keep all chatter and questions within the Monogram discussion thread.
  • For official product images, release dates and other information, please refer to the Monogram colour story thread.

Re: MAC - Monogram Swatches - Nov 08
Old English Sheerspark


Natural Lighting, no flash.


With flash.


Compared to Honey Lust (because I use Old English as a shadow as well). Old English is actually lighter in real life.

Natural lighting, no base, no flash, paler than NW15.

Re: MAC - Monogram Swatches - Nov 08

Distinguished - - - - - - - - - - Identity



Wanted to show the caps, I do love the packaging, more so than I thought. It didn't come off as cheaply as I'd imagined.



Distinguished on lips....the Identity swatches were all blurry and I already wiped it off. Lets face it, I'm 6 months pregnant and lazy! Distinguished basically comes off clear on my lips, Identity looks similar but you can definately notice the pinkness to it. I can't wait to try these over some lippies!!



Identity (L), Distinguished (R) swatched on my MAC receipt lol the swatch I took on my hand (shown next) is bad, but ah well



One of these days I'll learn to take a pic of my hand and make it clear! I need to read the manual!! Anyway, Identity is on top, Distinguished is on the bottom.

Re: MAC - Monogram Swatches - Nov 08
Monogram 129 Face Brush (Special Edition, not LE)

I found this brush super soft, but had some problems with picking up colors from some blush (ex. MAC pleasantry).The last picture is just a tip to keep your brush "undamaged" whenever you pull it out of its bag.
