MAC Heavenly creature discussion

Ok, I need input. I have the money to get either Supernova or Venus and Cut a Caper. Should I get another blush or the two lippies from this collection? Hmmm... lol. I wish I could just get all of them when it goes on Nordies but just can't justify it. I've ordered Star Wonder, CoU, Lightyear, RoS, and now Stratus. Decisions, decisions. Lol!!!

My haul! You can tell I already tried on the lipsticks lol. I love how Astral looks in this pic! I like the way my swirl looks in sky


I wanted to show you this combo I used today! I snapped this right before work. Its Fire Sign with Now in Season lipgelee. I love how it turned out, I love FS so much! It's def a red I can wear without feeling self-concious. And it pulls either red or pink with different lippies on top! I'm excited to do some combos with Venus! It's like a pinker gem of roses on me

Here's a closer pic in different lighting, sorry about the large pores on my cheeks ...this lighting gave my face a weird color. And a tan seems to emphasize my pores n freckles.

And heres a swatch of my Sky...

Great haul, singer82! And thank you for the picture! Fire Sign looks gorgeous on you. I can tell why you love it! A pinker gem of roses - sounds perfect to me. =) Beautiful!

Well, I just ordered Stratus. *Hangs head in shame* Nails is not longer working but I used sparks then paid the 5 bucks for second day shipping. I want lippies from this collection but my MAC lippie collection makes my rest of MAC collection look really tiny lol. I'm still wanting Supernova but it's not online yet besides being sold out on mac's site. I have a feeling this collection is gonna make my husband not happy lol.

Dang they caught on!!

It will be released here on Monday!

Your MSF collection doubled! Hope you'll like the new ones from HC. I agree Center of the Universe and Earthshine are beautiful! Earthshine might work as eyeshadow, too? Are you going to check out the collection in store on Thursday?

Oops, sorry MACina. Hope I was not too loud. Hehe. When will this collection be released in Germany?

It feels like forever until this gets released here. I am beyond impatient. I hope it pops up online really early on Monday morning.

May I ask if you a sunscreen and if yes which one?

Thank you!

I don't use sunscreen because it makes my eyes water horribly...the Miracle Skin Transformer i use as primer has SPF in it though.

.....can not wait anymore to get my goodies!

Thank you!

Using a primer with SPF is a good thing IMO because you need a primer anyway.
I have never heard of this one before.Have to check it out...

I received my gratis items and I've been testing these eyeshadows out before they release at our counters on Thursday and so far I like them. I was never a mineralize eyeshadow fan, but after playing with these (specifically Sky and Water) I have a new outlook on them. In the picture below I tested out the ME in Water (all over the lid). Water seems like it's not a favorite so of course I chose it as one of the first ones to test. Lol

Is everybody (in the US) done with HC? Who's going to check out the collection in store on Thursday?

Nope, going in on the 5th to swatch and haul if I like anything.

What's on your lip? Looks nice!

Miracle Skin Transformer is awesome and it fills in all the pores too. I use the tinted one (Light) now but they have a small "to go" size at Sephora of the translucent one for like $9.

The things I REALLY wanted in my gratis package I didn't get (all cremesheen glasses, Earthshine and the VAE) =( LOL so I will have to come out of the pocket for those soon. They are sooooo pretty. Especially for brown gals. I know our clients and customers are going to have a ball with this collection. It's so perfect for summer.

Thank you! I went back and put in the products I used but on my lips: MAC's lipstick in Rebel and cremesheen glass in Colour Saturation.

I can't wait to go swirl-hunting on Thursday

 

[Anitacska]

How can you do that?

It's probably for the best that I don't have a CCO nearby, whenever I go to one, I always leave with so much stuff.

I have other Mac counters (one in Bentalls in Kingston and one in House of Fraser in Guidlford), but I prefer ordering from Debenhams. I usually go through Topcashback for some cashback as well, if I can remember.

Quote:
Aww that sucks! I have a MAC in the Debenhams at home (Chester) and where I go to uni (Cardiff), so there is no escape

The ladies and gents at both the counters are lovely too, and we also have a freestanding store in Cardiff. No idea how I only got into MAC a year and a half ago - it probably should've happened sooner! We also have a CCO a 15 minute drive from home - oh dear!

Edit - I discovered today that you can collect Nectar points by buying from Debenhams online. That would have earned me a lot haha

I decided to check my nectar points from the first time in 3 years and there's a link on there that gives you the points automatically as long as you use that specific link to buy stuff. They have them for amazon etc also

Hope it goes up on Debenhams on Monday morning, so I can order it and receive by Thursday (hopefully), and then pick some different swirled MSFs up on Thursday. That's my plan anyway.
