MAC So Reel / Reel Sexy discussion

[SweetSarah]

Right, aradhana! So fun.

BTW, love your name. It's vedic for worship, right?

 

[Indieprincess]

Hmmm...the only thing I wanted was Heroine and it looks much too light for me. Oh well that's money saved Extra Dimension, MAC for Beth Ditto and Hey Sailor!

 

[martiangurll]

Oh, well. Maybe Beigescapade will still be pretty.

I think I want all of the lippies and cremesheens, minus WMS which did not look good on me.

The eyeshadows sound kinda passable, but I'll wait to swatch it myself.

I wish you all lived here, so we could go shopping at MAC together and I could have in person opinions.

My beigescapeade had a lot of blue when I dug into it.

Is the 188 good for MSF?? And for highlighting?

 

[aradhana]

yep, it's sanskrit -- my dad is religious...

 

[SweetSarah]

Well, it's beautiful.

My goodness.... Itching2Snitch, you are a MAC Angel sent to us by the makeup gods! Thank you a MILLION!!

For me...
Reel Sexy, Heroine
Cinestyle, Color saturation
MAYBE 1 eyeshadow duo
Heirloom
and PINK CULT!! (Yay for a this repromote!)

And good question SweetSarah... Lightscapade OR Beigescapade? THAT is the question! I won't even admit how many times I BU'd this up... Never really finding the swirly goodness of my dreams. If they fix the problem and bring back the original, I will pull out all my hair!! The craziness I went through with that... AHHH!

I actually wanted to try it at first but I read on temptalia it looks a lot like full speed so I decided to pass because full speed looked awful on me

I have both lipsticks and while Temptalia said it looks a lot like Full Speed I didn't feel that was the case. Full Speed seemed more 'translucent' and a bit more orange than WMS. I've got a comparison shot of Vegas Volt, WMS and Full Speed on my blog. Here's the shot:

Finish aside, I wonder how close Heroine and Violetta are to each other.

That's a good question. I hope it pulls more purple . So far I'm loving all the lipstick and glosses from the swatches I've send so far

 

[sherm]

Not sure how I didn't realize that Cinestyle, etc. are Cremesheen GLASSES not lipsticks! LOL

So my list has shrunk again, good for the wallet!

Good question. I will have to get Heroine to comapare it with Violetta.

 

[Copperhead]

The fact that Heroine is matte AND purple is enough for me to get it. I don't think I have any matte purples.

 

[Anitacska]

So I'm guessing Heroine is not the same Heroine that came out with Wonder Woman. And how weird they're already repromoting Watch Me Simmer.

And how about Lightscapade? Is it gonna be the proper one or just Beigescapade? Probably just Beigescapade.

Because you were all soooooo nice to me in the last thread haha......

*waves the Snitch Wand*

Bam!




I know WMS looks dark, but remember, anything swatched on white paper will look much darker

Toodles.

 

[aradhana]

wow both full speed and wms look much more pink in your swatches than i've seen so far. i was wondering what people meant when they said it leaned pink, because wms looks more like hibiscus (reddish orange) on me...

i'm kind of hoping vg nicki will look like on me as full speed does on your swatch... (hope that makes sense!)

I don't like my 188, its not dense/fluffy enough for anything :/ even for pigmented blush, I prefer 187. but 187 is too big for cheek highlight >_<

Is the 188 good for MSF?? And for highlighting?

Itching2snitch do u know how reel sexy lipstick compares to flamingo from IA collection. As I am looking at the description flamingo was listed as light milky bright coral and reel sexy is listed as light bright coral.

 

[duckrodeo]

That's making me want Full Speed! Sooo pretty! How have I missed this perm shade?

Maybe less white in it than Flamingo? Very good question. May be Flamingo's brighter sister!

Hi everyone! I was at my local CCO today and they had Pink Cult in stock! Not sure how many, but just a heads up that it may be popping up at your local CCO soon!
