MAC Heavenly creature discussion

[LMD84]

Its bn so long since I last logged into Specktra!! I've missed my Specktrette ladies. Had to take a hiatus from makeup since I had a NY trip back in Nov/Dec and went a little shopping crazy (I think I spent $500 on Mac and Sephora whilst I was there.

So I've had a lot of bills to pay off. I refused to log into Specktra knowing I'd be pulled in with the new Mac collections. Hahah, but I feel like I have a little more self-control now as I'm engaged!

DB proposed in Jan so I'm super excited! The wedding is slated to be the end of March 2013 as we need to save money for a whole bunch of things. So I can't go as crazy with Mac as before (at least I hope not).

This collection looks amazing! My last Mac haul was from SP last fall so I guess I'm back just in time for the next mineralize collection. Wish the swatches would appear though because just reading the color story is making me jump up and down. Alright, so the calm me is saying to only get 3-4 items and not go overboard. My pre-swatch list is:
Venus l/s
Earthshine msf
Center of the universe msf
Star wonder msf
Stratus mb
Solar ray mb
Supernova mb

congratulations on your engagement! that is amazing news!!

Hmmmm. Love the promo pik. I am puzzled whether Fire Sign is the lippy on the model. Having a color description of Pink Red really could be anything (that isn't orange). Do I have other fire sign ladies here who will get it for the name? I am an Aries--so gotta have it.

Me too! I guess I gotta have it now too.

Lucky...I still haven't found my perfect red lipstick!

It will happen. Seriously, if I found it, you will. Are you checking out Red Racer?

 

[Prettypackages]

That's what I was thinking when I BUd Red Racer last week (it's my first BU for a l/s). Otherwise, I've been telling myself I don't need BUs. In fact, Narcissus and Nubile are the only items I have BUd since some BUs in 2009!

those are good backups too!

Congrats Becky!! Welcome back!

I'm ready for swatches now.

Just click on 'insert image', it should work. Or upload them somewhere else, like photobucket and post the link. If you want you can send them to me and I'll upload them.

edit: I can see the pics in your profile album, they're there

I've never tried CSGs, but I really dislike MAC's regular lipglasses! I usually wear Chanel glossimers or one of the l/g from Marcel Wanders 2 as I don't find them tacky and sticky at all!

The c/s/g are similar in texture to the MW glosses (non-sticky).

Everything does look lovely,but I'm not too excited like i thought I would be . Neither was I excited when hey sailor launched online,I guess I'm not much in a make up mood,since my grandma whom i use to take care of almost everyday passed the other week. =-( . I think I will take a lil break for now,Ive even bought loads of stuff from sephora,clothes shopping,etc and not even some retail therapy will cheer me up.

 

[duckrodeo]

I'm going to wait 'til I hear how these MSFs perform. Right now I'm looking at the very light pink one with gold swirled in and wondering how close it is to Porcelain Pink, which I tend to neglect.
