MAC Hey, Sailor! (Summer 2012) Discussion

[MACerette]

ahaha It's off topic but here in Italy we say "We are on the same ship"

See, we understand each other

. We also have an expression saying we're in the same little boat. It all means the same

how much is the tote, makeup bag set, & suntints?

 

[MRV]

What a great haul MRV!

Enjoy all your new goodies!

What do you think about the texture of the PL bronzers?Do you think that they work on try skin too?

Thanks! It's a bit difficult to say because I have actually never worn a bronzer so I have nothing to compare it with. But I do have a very dry skin, and I see no problem with that. I recommend to try the bronzer on your skin because they can be a product that is diffucult to make work if you get a wrong shade.

Does anyone know if suntints are really sheer? I like the look of Au Rose but I'm not sure if I should drop £11.50 on a potentially sheer, sparkly thing.

They are sheer but you will get the benefit of an SPF. I like s/t for the pool or at the beach, especially as they are easy to apply.

If at all possible, the swatches posted are making me even more confused about what I want to get! At least when it comes to the bronzers and blushes-- I all ready know what lipsticks I'll be trying to acquire :X But blushes and bronzers? I think I'll have to go in store!

Mac have only just despatched my order. I want it now! Im dying to try the bronzers and fleet fast! Fingers crossed i can have it on friday

Still waiting on shipping confirmation.

Not impressed. If it sends today it'll be here tomorrow when no one is home.

If it sends tomorrow and arrives on Friday it'll be the longest wait I've ever had with MAC, especially as I ordered it on Monday. I usually have things within 48hrs - I know it sounds like I might be being a tad bitchy/whiny about it, but I'm just not used to waiting with them, lol. Plus, with the day I've had and the day I'm gonna have tomorrow I could really use the pick me up of fun new make-up to play with.

I went to the MAC counter after work today, I tried Orange Tempera and I fell in love with it,
but when I said to the SA that I want one of this l/g and that I have Launch away! blush reserved
as well she said that they couldn't sell any of the new items cause they have a problem with the
bar codes and it needed to be solved...

But they assured me to call me when I can go and purchase the items.
So I need to wait an other day to get my goodies...
But well, at least they reserved them to me so I don't have to worry about sold out items...

Anyway I tried on Shore leave l/p with Reel Sexy l/s as well but I didn't liked this combo
cause the l/p made the lipstick more pink and less orangy. So I skipped it.


Oh, I want the blush soo bad, it is the most gorgeous, natural, pale, almost creamy peach blush that I have ever seen.
And really soft as well!

I placed a MAC order on Monday, too - just permanent stuff, but it's not been despatched yet. I've spent more than I intended on Hey Sailor (at House Of Fraser online, and the blushes at Debenhams online) because I needed a pick me up this month, too. I thought the least I could do is treat myself. They will probably arrive before the MAC order, the way things are going

That's so good to hear, since I have had to order online without being able to swatch for myself

Glad if I could help, I hope you will like it!

I was like: Are you kidding me? Is it an april fools joke or what?

I got my stuff today , yay! Red Racer is a gorgeous, true red which I can imagine looking good on most skin tones. The satin finish is lovely. I almost want to back it up, but I have several red lippies and I just don't wear it enough to justify backing up one particular shade. I need to swatch RR next to my other reds because I'm sure it's close to one of them but I'm not sure which... Shore Leave lip pencil I am definitely going to BU - I think it will go so well with a load of coral lipsticks like Flamingo and Ever Hip. Love it! Barefoot is a nice gold shade. I think it might be similar to Urban Decay's Honey, although perhaps darker and not quite as yellow. I ordered Emerald Sea liner yesterday as well, so hopefully I'll get that soon.

My parcel is due in the morn!! Yay

Where did you order from? I ordered from Debenhams yesterday lunchtime and had the dispatch e-mail by 5 pm or so already, so hoping it will arrive tomorrow.

Thank you MRV!

The texture should work for as well then.

Thanks! I will!
