WOC - MAC MAC MAke Me OVer Collection

Okay so I went and swatched the Evil Eye quad on my lunch break and now I really don't understand Temptalia's F rating. The colors came out fine on me (NW45/NW50ish) so maybe this is more brown girl friendly (I mean, this is the part of the collection featuring the WOC winner). This was the one thing I was truly lemming prior to her review (I've since scratched everything off my list except the 226, which I picked up on Monday) so I'm going to sleep on making this purchase. I'm going to Miami next weekend and want to go to the Inglot store so I could very well save my money for that.
Apologies for posting on the WOC thread, but I just want to add that I re-swatched Evil Eye today on NW20 skin, and the pigmentation was just fine. If anyone is interested in this particular quad, I would check it out in person.

Here's what I got from the collection:


  • All (4) Fluidlines
  • 226 x2 brushes
  • 211 brush
  • Carbonized eyeshadow

I am thinking about going back to get:

  • Mythical-(I hesitated because I have Mythology) Do I still need it? hummmmm
  • Seaside CCB
  • Runway Red lipstick (I rarely wear red but this looks good!)
  • Rebel lipstick (I had Rebel for years but never wore it. I ended up B2M'ing it, now the swatches are calling my name)
  • Another 211 brush

Runaway Red is the best red ever!!! Its perfect for me, no liners needed. I am so happy I finally found a red that I can just apply and go. I have been looking for one for a long time!

I highly suggested it for those close to my skin tone who have a hard time finding the right red.

. As far as reds go, Its a cool red, with more blue in it than MAC's perm reds. Its not too bright. It does make that statement that red lipstick makes, but I don't feel like it clashes with any undertones in my skin. I think its very wearable for us browner girls.

This is what I've picked up from this collex:


  • 226 brush (2x)
  • Dark Envy, Midnight Blues & Avenue Fluidlines (skipped Dark Diversion as I have MacroViolet and like that better)
  • Mythical e/s (I love Veluxe pearls and this will go nicely w/ Coppering)
  • Deep Sea nail polish

Oh, I forgot, I got prince noir and runaway red.

I really like reds and vampy colors so they were right up my alley.

Also, I really love how both outre and moleskin are totally different colors but can almost blend into my skin tone, moleskin more so, but I have a lot of yellow undertones so both are good/transition blending shades for me...I wonder if I mix the two, will they make my skin color, lol...

I initially wanted Outre' e/s but decided to pass on it but sexicandieeyes' video is kind of making me want it again.

I'll see what kind of look I get by trying the middle matte shade in WnW's Vanity palette because that color reminds me of Outre' a bit. Well almost. I just want to see how that color would look placed where she placed Outre'.

I wish Outre looked like that on me. Unfortunately it does not. I'm wondering if it shows up so well because of her camera settings. I want to see the tutorial for that look. I might try that shadow again next week. Perhaps finding the right color to pair it with makes all the difference.

Do you have bamboo? If so how do bamboo and outre compare?

I'm also about a shade or shade in a half darker than candieeyes but I'm sure Outre's real color would stand out on top of Soft Ochre P/P. That just looks so great on her. That entire eyelook is great. I'd love to see a tutorial too.

Today I wore Outre on the lid, Carbonized in the crease, and Ricepaper as a highlight. It was gorgeous!!! The color combination works great as an everyday look. Just wanted to share...

I used Outre today on my lid and it was gorgeous! I can't wait to use it in my crease. I also bought two fluid lines, Green Envy and Avenue. They were sold out at the two pro stores, so no discount for me.

I'm going to try Outre tomorrow on my lid with something like Sorcery. After the look is complete, I'll see if it's really a dud or not(hopefully not because I hate being out and about with a look that I hate).

I wore outre on my lid, with moleskin & carbonized in the crease, and it looked pretty =) I'm really happy with the shadows from this collection!
