MAC Holiday 2012 Glamour Daze / Fabulousness / Guilty Passions Collection Discussion

So if you're in Canada you can't order yet? Weird.

I'm waiting too...

 

[Supercoolstephy]

Stephy, are you using Superb on top of the cheekbones or under since it has the bronzy tones? is it worth getting Superb to use for summertime bronzing and eye color now since it is champagne/nude? It is a lot of eye color base compared to the smaller dimension eye shadows? also Superb is more nude than the peachy toned Flirt. Decisions, decisions...

I've been putting it on my cheekbones with blush over it too. I love it. That's why I'm not sure I need WoG. I've also been putting it on my outer forehead (I can't remember what it's called) but I apply it up there too. I plan to use it as a bronzer in the summer.

Yeah it's really weird.
But then again it's been a weird day - First Nordstrom releases early. Then mac usa releases mid day. Then mac Canada lists all the new collections as coming soon....

Im wondering how Rosy Outlook compares to I'm the one and how Small Vanity compares to Blush all Day?

 

[Tanjola]

I didn't realize the Mac counters at Macy's are taking pre orders. I'm so glad I called. I will be traveling on business Thursday and would have had to trust my husband or my daughter to purchase up my things

. Now all they have to do is pick it up from the store. Surely they can't mess that up...

.LOL

Can anyone tell me what "Everything That Glitters" looks like? Is it super glittery or is it mostly black with a little bit of glitter?

I swatched it on my thumb today, it appears to be a plain shimmerless black LOADED with pink,blue and silver glitter.
It's the perfect holiday party color, it for sure needs an ample coating of a high gloss top coat, it gives the nails that rough
textured look on account of all the glitter.

Just ordered devine blue. I will wait to pick up my order Friday from Newbury street in Boston. Here's to hoping they don't mess it up. I was tempted to get WOG (skipped the first time) but I don't know...I couldn't be bothered! Am I missing out?? NC20...enable me if you must.

I am NC15-NC20 and WOG is one of my most used highlighters next to Lightscapade. I also have superb, but it looks a bit dirty on me, so I find myself reaching for WOG more often. WOG is lighter than superb and is flattering on Asian and yellow based skintones. It doesn't look overly gold or anything.

one more question (thanks for your patience) BTW you have the most gorgeous green eyes I have ever seen!!

do you tend to wear Peachy blush or Pinky blushes? I am wondering what kind of color you put over the Superb? Also, I am not light eyed and light haired. I look like Snow White, with the darkest brown and hazel/brown eyes. Superb does look fabulous on you.

Beauty can be painful! Enjoy every bit of it!

You better enjoy ever it of it lol

Thank you. You are very sweet. I tend to wear pinky blushes and peach blushes that have more pink tones to it (launch away does that for me). Lately I've been wearing The Perfect Cheek (which Easy Manner is an easy dupe for) or Small Vanity. I bet both would look gorgeous on your light complexion.

Ps if you think my eyes are pretty then you would die if you saw my dads or my moms. Both are amazingly pretty. I just got a combo. Ha ha.

[COLOR=9900FF]For fun, I live chatted with a MAC rep to see if they could tell me what was used on the model for the promo image. I was told that regrettably, face charts are not always available. I mentioned that I loved the makeup look and would like to recreate it using products from the new collection and she told me that a MUA at a MAC store could possibly help me choose products. Wait, what? :huh:  I don't understand why she couldn't help me out directly, haha![/COLOR] [COLOR=9900FF]Edited to add:[/COLOR] [COLOR=9900FF]I was not satisfied by the lack of an answer, so I spoke to someone else and I was given a list similar to adoreabelle:[/COLOR] On the lips: Prep + Prime Lip base, In Synch Lip Pencil, Beauty Lipstick, and Pink Fade Lipglass. On the cheeks: I'm The one Powder Blush.
Eye: Ready To Party eye shadow on the lower lid, Stolen Moment and Tall, Dark and Handsome Eye Shadows through the crease, Yogurt eye Shadow on the brow bone. Boot Black Liquid Liner with Endlessly Black Extended Play Lash Mascara on the eye lashes.

I can't believe we're all getting different answers! Although I like the idea of using In Synch as a lip liner over Summerfruit.

Happy shopping everybody!:eyelove:

 

[Supercoolstephy]

Has anyone who's been to the events actually been able to see the Gorgeous Bronze face kit? I have it on preorder and was wondering what y'all thought of it. Thanks!!

 

[smooch3s]

the hanging bag
all 5 lipsticks
2 fluidlines, little black bow and catch my eye
both edsf

(and this doesn't include the pre-sale i have at dillard's of almost the same exact list, plus a few more things...)

this is what happens when The Man leaves me at home alone...

Even though I already placed my order, I keep checking the website to see what sells out first and how soon that will happen. You would think I'd be sick of looking at the site after nine days of stalking

I've been doing the same thing. Gotta do something fun while the debate is on in the background

 

[RayannaBanana]

I was only going to get a lipstick but found Small Vanity interesting. Is it too dark for NW15 skintone?

OMG we're doing the exact same things right now for the exact same reasons!!

 

[StarrySim]

Does anyone know - Can I order on the US site, for shipping to a US address, but with a Canadian credit card? I'm thinking of shipping a few things to my brother's address, since I'll be visiting soon. Everything is so much cheaper in USD!
