MAC Fashion Sets discussion

Picked up Rebel and GAT lipglasses, and Chestnut lipstick. Since most of the lippies in this collection are perm, I can take my time and swatch them first before I buy.

Is Rebel l/g exactly the same as the l/s? It's my #1 lemming atm..

To avoid skipper's remorse later on, I ordered all three of the LE lipsticks. Two each of Razzledazzler and Spice and one Chestnut. Something's very intriguing about Chestnut, but perhaps I'm having my own skipper's remorse for being young and missing out on most of the makeup in the 90's lol.

I hemmed and hawed over the lipglasses, but of the ones I was interested in, I own Pink Poodle, Fresh Air, Pink Lemonade and Tour de Fabulous, so I'm fairly confident in skipping the lipglasses since I have BUs of FA and TdF.

Edit: ohh I also added Russian Red lipstick to my cart. I have been meaning to get this shade for a while, so I thought ehhhh why not? lol.

I don't know. Would you believe I never bought Rebel? I know it's popular, but I was never interested in it as a lipstick.

Jazzed, Ever Hip, Flamingo, Razzledazzler. I forgot which blog I got it from.

Thank you!

Thank you so much Richelle!

Razzledazzler and Flamingo are soooo different.....I need both!

Pink Nouveau is definitely one of my favs from this collection. Matches the lipstick perfectly! Girl About Town is lovely also. I could've passed on Saint Germain. It looks super pale on me

I'm thinking of skipping Saint Germain l/g but somehow I must have it to make it work with my skintone lol

Vampy Varnish has her review and swatches up

I'm confused. All the 'continents' online in the US, but only NA at shops. Does this mean we get only Europe&Africa sets here in Europe? Any chance all of them will come online (UK) though?

I just BtoM-ed Pink Nouveau this week. Now I'm wondering what I should get. I may lean to Ravishing and RazzleDazzle if they come available in Europe, if not, Morange only. Too tired to order from US I think, especially with H,S and RS coming out in May!

Can you order from MAC US too? Could you tell me how to?

It is sooo pretty!

I wish, but I'm afraid it's not possible.

One thing I have been wondering myself: someone from Romania told that she has ordered from House of Fraser. How is that possible? They don't send from their online to EU.

Sometimes buying online is not possible, but phone ordering is... That might be the case?

I'm sure you can make it work. When I find glosses too light/pale, I just use them with darker shades of lipstick. So it's definitely doable

Angel lipstick is pretty, I might put it on my B2M list. I swatched Russian Red l/s and l/g at the counter today, I like the l/g, but not the l/s. They actually don't seem to be the same colour at all.
