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

[Anneri]

Yep. I got the tracking number immediately, and then it stayed at 20% for about nine days. I guess the OS is always really astonished when a collection comes out and a lot of people order in s short time. I mean, it's not like that happens every month...

well that's annoying

Why is it so hard to get the packages shipped???

 

[tats]

Don't be too concerned, my BR stuff took ten days to arrive. It's just the normal wonderful service we can from the German OS!

OMG!!! Even packages to US arrive quicker than that.. That's a total joke...I can understand why you guys are reluctant to buy online.. Luckily, here MAC usually delivers within 2-3 days.. otherwise I would be stuck if I couldn't use online service.

I got my Innocence BU, now I am a happy bunny)) Hopefully it will last me a while since I have tons of lipsticks, and I will be keeping an eye on any dupes as well..))

 

[MRV]

Innocence does not seem to give any colour to my lips

, just some glaze (I would not call it a MLBB). It reminds me a bit of Lollipop, without the green cast.

Yea we see his dr on fri and then ophthalmologist after so hopefully it's ok, as a parent you just want everything to be fine so I guess just hearing the he might not be able to do this or that is what's been bothering me, of course I will never tell him he can't do something I'll tell him he can do what his heart wants to do : )......yea makeup def boosts my little ego lol

as others have suggested try not to worry to much till you get the doctor's advice.

if it's any consolation - i know several men who are colour blind, including my husband, and they are all fully functional!

i hope it all works out and you feel better soon!

I just received the nail color in Everything that Glitters. I put on two coats and this color peels off like crazy. Has anyone else's done this, or did I get a bad batch?

 

[elegant-one]

Thank you for sharing the looks, girls! You guys are all so beautiful inside and outside!
This place (Specktra) is one happy place. It makes me smile.

I was wondering how you like the Divine Desire Pink set. I'm glad you love the lipstick and blush. Any chance we will see your pink set? I always love your pictures.

Happy Belated Birthday, elegant! Sorry I'm way behind. Hope it was lovely and fun!

Mine will be tomorrow. Yay for November babies!

Well Happy Birthday to us!

I am going to go take pics of the set right now

kimibos mentioned something similar somewhere upthread. i haven't got the product myself so i don't know how bad the problem is, but many glitter polishes tend to peel more easily than regular ones anyway. perhaps a sticky base coat would help?

 

[chloecat]

This nail polish actually peels off in big strips. I couldn't believe it. I showed my husband and he was laughing. I have had nail polish chip, but never peel off in strips. I love the color, so I'm going to try a clear top coat and see if that helps. If not, it's going back to Nordstrom.

hmm. doesn't sound good.

perhaps you could also try layering it on a black creme? then it would have something to adhere to (although you might lose some of the depth by doing so)

Thanks, I'll try that too!

 

[chloecat]

everything that glitters is going back! as the worst polish i have ever had. it comes of as a whole. like a sticker of the nail. its a shame because of the color. but im going to order the butter london one.
due to the disappointment i ordered like 9 polishes from transdesign.

That's what mine did too!

Divine Desire Pink








^Accurate color of the blush. The one below is just a tad lighter than what it actually is.

 

[BuickMackane]

@elegant-one - thank you so much for the swatches!

i'm not a fan of the gloss and the pencil, and i'm on the fence about the blush. but the lippie is beautiful! i wish it was sold individually, as i can't justify buying the entire set just for one lippie.

 

[gracie90]

The l/s and blush are particularly gorgeous! If they were sold individually then I'd get them

 

[elegant-one]

The eye pencil is really really pretty on. But yeah, the Lipstick & Blush are gorgeous, especially the lipstick. I don't think I have anything else quite like this lipstick color.

I'm glad to read that you really like your Paramour Pink set

I'm really loving it as well, as you already said the lipstick and blush are just gorgeous, and the eye pencil isn't half as bad as T describes.

 

[MACina]

.....GORGEOUS!!!

Thank you for the pics and swatches Elegant

I am even more impatient now

Is the 179 the split fiber kabuki from Semi Precious? If so, I have seen it recently at a CCO. I can swing by and see if they still have it this weekend, if you'd like.
