MAC Heavenly creature discussion

[lyseD]

So when is this collection in stores? I thought it was supposed to be next week, but it's online already (and nothing sold out yet!). When is it out at The Bay? I need to go on the release day for this one.

It released July 5th at the Bay. If you are planning on a big haul they have a coupon book right now. They'll give it to you when you spend $50 and then you get $10 off a $50 purchase in July and August. SO buy $50 worth, get the booklet and then buy the other $50.


Someone posted earlier about their order not updating on the Canadian site -- nine times out of ten my order is on my doorstep before I get an update from MAC.

Universal Appeal, Magnetic Attraction, Earthly

I don't have dupes for these! UA is purple, may not show it here though. I don't know what Earthly is lol




Shimmery/glittery yes, gritty no!!

A combination of the vagaries of photography, computer monitors, and skin tone:

On me UA looks about like the pics above. MA is warmer (a bit firey, even, with glints of orange, gold, and purple). Earthly is warmer (a beige taupe with faint hints of peach, rather than a green taupe). At least compared to how the pics look on my computer.

I have ED Modern Pewter and it is extremely different from Earthly - MP is a metallic green taupe with hints of gold.

Your MSF & blush pics look pretty true to my experience of them.

BTW, lest i sound like a cranky pants, i am very grateful to you, Richelle, for putting up your swatches so quickly. Thank you so much!

On me(NC30/35) it is like a nice, coral blush with sheen. I think it is really pretty!

Do you think Neo Nebula is simliar to anything?

 

[elegant-one]

I really want Star Wonder but I hate too shimmery fish scale look on me & I can't quite tell if it has that. I also want another blush but don't know which one.

i can't wait to see a swatch of Fire Sign. Just hoping its not like a traditional luster. the color looks beautiful, and I don't want anything sheer.

I think thats the only thing I am going to grab. The VAE maybe, I'm a little miffed that after almost 3 years, the price went up so much for the same size tube.; and limited edition skin care is just dumb.

Is it me, or is the model in the promo pic wearing a sheered out Rebel gloss on her lips. I swear that color is not in the collection. Any thoughts?

 

[duckrodeo]

Sounds great! What brush are you planning on using for Earthshine? I am definitely going to pick a pretty multicoloured one

Not sure which brush I will use for it! I have a fan brush, but it's pretty lame except to brush away eyeshadow fallout. I think it's by coastal scents or something, I bought it from Hautelook a few months ago.

I ordered Astral, Venus, Galaxy Rose, Fire Sign and Stratus earlier, along with some more sponges for my compacts, Ruffian Red, and some prolongwear lipcremes and lipliners.

and just from reading all of your posts and seeing swatches I ordered Earthshine MSF.

Richelle83 thanks so much for your swatches, you enabler you!!! I love it

Did you get Ring of Saturn yet? I'm sure it will look great on you, I will definitely get it. And it doesn't look as shimmery as Solar Ray.

you hoar! im jealous of your star wonder

it is SO pink, i love it!

 

[Prettypackages]

I'm tired lol

LOL, thank you though! I wish I saw your swatches before I made m order though. I would've went in a totally different direction.

 

[Richelle83]

I swatched it on page 84. It is sheer but of course very buildable. And yes the promo pic does look like Rebel! I tried all combinations and nothing came close to that pic!

My Fire Sign is here tomorrow so I will swatch.

I swatched it in store and bought it because it was sheer. I have a hard time with reds so I thought this would be perfect for me.
