MAC - Naturally Discussion

[sherm]

I picked up Subtle Breeze tonight. I think I'm done, my counter was sold out of half the products and their event is supposed to be another 2 weeks from now?!

Beach Sand is my favorite as it is a taupey rose nude, which is neither too warm or too cool. Love it!

But Beach Sand looks so... yellow in swatches?

Not on me, but it certainly depends on our lip color and pigmentation how a l/s comes out.

Hmm.. Mine are mauvey/pink most of the tip and quite pigmented. Whats your lip colour? I was soo interested in Beach Sand

I've been so far successful at completely ignoring this collection, but:
Lately, for some diabolical reason, Cloudy Afternoon eyeshadow has been showing up on my "radar."
Be honest: Will i hate myself forever if I pass it up?
I have bright green eyes.

Hi. Does anyone have comparison swatches of subtle breeze and dainty and/or pet me?

Mac_Guy you are so right about beach sand. It's neither too warm or too cool. I'm NC 47ish (I'm still petitioning MAC to make this color available, lol) and beach sand is the perfect nude. It's what I wanted flesh pot to be on brown skin. I have really pigmented lips and the color does not pull yellow at all.

I've got bright green eyes too.....I skipped CA, but because it's one of those colors similar to Dalliance. It's quite a bit more grey than Dalliance, but it's still got that very subtle khaki beige tone to it that doesn't flatter my NC15 skin at all. I thought it was pretty but I know it's a color I'd wind up not using so I passed on it.

Anti-enabler time!

Someone mentioned Summer Haze looking not too special. I have to say that I fnd it to be beautiful. The lighter portion of it is EXACTLY the right pale gold I like to highlight my brow with. It's everything I wished Nylon would be, but Nylon is just too much for me. The deeper gold is so flattering. And the swirling of the two shades together gives such a beautiful peachy-gold perfect for an all over lid color, which looks fantastic with In the Sun in the crease.

This sounds like a lovely smokey-ish combination.

I have Subtle Breeze and Dainty. Dainty is sparkly and Subtle Breeze is almost matte, just slightly glowy. Dainty is also more coral, while Subtle Breeze is more like a dirty neutral pink and darker.

Yay, sounds perfect (I agree about Nylon)! I can't wait to get it.

Is it really different from Blonde's Gold piggie or White Gold piggie? How about Peek at You mega metal e/s?

Unfortunately I don't have those, but from swatches I've seen, yes. The mineralize formula is so nice amd soft. It gives such a soft, pretty glow.

Ooooooo you sold me! I'm trying this pronto! Busting FE out of the fridge! I can't resist anymore! LOL

I'm not getting CA for the same reason. But I'm tempted to get Daylight. I wonder if it suits NC15. Did you get it?

I LOVE Daylight - my most used MES from this collection. I got it plus Twilight Falls and In the Sun (with lots of magenta in it) - those 3 make a great combo, and I also have worn Daylight combined with Hold That Pose (foolproof soft look for me). Diamond Dove works well with it too.
