MAC Posh Paradise Discussion

[LMD84]

I like to use paint pots as a wash of color .. do you recommend me genuine treasure for day time or is it too sparkly?

i don't think it's too sparkly at all for the day you can use a lighter layer of it for a more sheer look or you could build it up

Half Wild and Pink Pearl pigment yield an awesome color!

I'm sad that I missed out on Genuine Treasure. Wish I snatched it up earlier.

I know it's not the same... but NYX Jumbo Pencil in Iced Mocha is close to the same shade. Without the glitter. So, you could give that a try, especially if you were just looking to layer under shadows. Sorry sweetie, I know it stinks to miss out on something you want like this!

What kind of brush should I use with p/ps and other creamy products for eyes? I usually apply cream shadows with my fingers, but this technique makes some of the Posh Paradise p/ps patchy - at least on me. What do you guys use? The 242?

^ a good brush to use is a synthetic fibre smallish oval size like a concealer brush.. MAC 194 I believe. They work the best to pick up and disburse product evenly.

For Paint Pots, I use the MAC 217 or Sigma E25 (Sigma's dupe for MAC's 217)

If I'm using a PP as a base I use either MAC's 242 or Shu Uemura's #10. Both synthetic oval shaped brushes.

OK I will try that. Thanks! Even though I will have to find someone to CP for Genuine Treasure.

I was sooooo close to buying Nubile a little while ago, but I had to restrain my finger from clicking "submit final order." Must...save...money...

Last time I checked Dillards and Bloomingdales had Genuine Treasure. Also Live Journal may have it too in the mac_cosmetics area.

 

[Piarpreet]
