MAC - Semi Precious Discussion

[m0rg3nst3rn]

They look sooo pretty depotted and sitting next to each other! Lol like crystals! I only have 3 MES but if/when I get more I will also depot so I can B2M

Yeah, I have quite a few B2M empties now, but for me this worth it just to have them all in one place, i go crazy trying through looking for the one I want to use, this way I see them all in one place, it's so easy now and so pretty, I get mesmerized looking at them sometimes...lol

Do you still use magnetic stickers or how do they stay in place?

 

[m0rg3nst3rn]

I use magnets for them to keep them in place. I use thin magnet sheets and they work really well for them and they don't move at all. I then place the label from the pot on them, it's pretty much the same process that I use for depotting shadows, LOL

Oh, the cool thing is, because there is a little space usually on on side of the MES, I have found that I usually don't need heat to depot them. I just go to the side that there is space, place a needle or small knife push all the way down and start to lift. Sometimes you have to start to lift and then reposition the needle or knife to under the porcelain and then just totally lift it out. It is really easy to do.

Do you depot MSF as well?

Oh no..I would need way too many containers since they are so big. I have them in this cute Barbie bag. I believe that the bag is meant for cosmetics anyway, so it works. I have contemplated it though...I don't remember how many would fit in one tin, but it's not much...

[mousygiggles]

exactly!!! Damn, I really need to find a backup of GG....

 

[pemily]

hey hey

could you please post piks of your products that are the same side by side.......
would love to see the difference in veining

so i got my 4th package lol Im obsessed. QF is a glitter mess/bomb. I think darker skin tones would find this more flattering. NOT for cool tones pale gyals....

My extra faux gold was orange and i was hoping for a more burgundy one, but then i got smoked ruby so ill stop trying

jade's fortune my 3rd attempt and i give up on ti, just like unsurpassable my 3rd attempt and still green lol

I like the new clarity better though. A lil darker.

Mineral mode might be cool for a winged liner look... just like a carvas sort of eyeshadow.

NOW I HAVE TO STOP!!!!!!!

I'm waiting for another package. I know I know.... this collex i love it too much!

 

[m0rg3nst3rn]

It's actually silver and Lilac. It'c called Devil-May-Care. It was from the Magic, Mirth and Mischief collection.

My wallet is already crying Lou!

You hit pan on one of the Mega Metals already? Which one? Then maybe you should get another Clarity. Thanks for the tip on the Sephora pencils. I will check them out hopefully this week.

I hit pan on Dalliance. I just love that color.

I do think I sould get another Clarity. I chose one this time with the least black. If I can find some in Vegas I'll try to choose one with some different veining. These are so addictive. I had ruled out mes a long time ago from MAC, so glad they got their act together and reformulated them. I did get one from VV but I had to because it was Disney.

I did not even mention Chanel yet

oohhh don't mention chanel! it is bad enjough that i need to buy a new aqua foundation because mine is running low!

 

[Mac-Guy]

This always happens at the wrong time, right?

 

[Romina1]

I'm going to get more mes today. I think I will finally not get Faux Gold since Tan pigment is similar to it, and get instead a back up for Clarity. I just cannot stop using this!

And if there's no dupe out there... And I thought that there was more product but now I saw how a mes is depotted I'm sure I'll run out! Of course all these are just plans. They may be sold out! I hope not. I want a back up for Clarity more than I want new ones!

aha! i have tan pigment so maybe i can skip too?! have you seen a comparison swatch?

 

[Romina1]

I swatched them side by side myself at the store. I was about to get FG but it reminded me of Tan so I compared them. They may be less similar if you get a dark veining FG but I'm not sure.
