MAC Taste Temptations Collection (November 2012; December 2012)

a NI back up or blue gaze np???

I lean more towards getting the BU if you love Nocturnal Instincts that much. It'll probably be harder to get later. How long do MAC polishes stick around? I'm thinking you'll have a better chance getting the polish later over the lipstick.

I got my packages today with night blooming, nocturnal instincts and unconventional - I am very pleased with all of the items. They all suit my NC15 skin tone very nicely. Nocturnal instincts is really a surprise, such a nice color! Night blooming is a gorgeous color, not over the top bright so I think it will get a lot of wear. And, of course the mattene product is amazing. I have a few of these and was really excited that they were coming out with more in this collection. The blush is very pigmented and silky. I was least looking forward to this collection but now that i have the items I think that I like these things the most out of all the collections this year (with the exception of extra dimension of course!)

I'm NC15 too. Do you think unconventional is too light for a blush? As in, would it be better suited as a (almost) highlighter for our coloring?

Quote: Which ones did you order? I hope you like them

Awe thanks hon I got Seductive Intent and Nocturnal Instincts. I'll let you all know my thoughts on them tomorrow I got my Sugarpill haul too today! I think now I have all the pigments but one now. 7 piggies and 1 quad for $82.00! I love the holiday sale.

Girl, I use to get cold sores all the time. Hated it! Have you ever tried  lysine?  It's amazing! I havent had a bad cold sore in close to three years.  Yay for lippies!

I hear ya! I used to get them all the time in highschool. It was horrible. I still get them from time to time. First I used abreva but it wasn't working, I think it was too late when I started using it. So I just let it play its course. It was not fun. Lysine really? Hmmm, have to try it if it sprouts up again. Its still a little dry and red in the spot so I'm just wearing gloss till its completely gone. I hope you continue to not get them, they are such a pain in the ass. Lippies always make me feel better hehe

I got one black box & one brown box today

I absolutely LOVE Passionately Tempted blush & Night Blooming

I didn't have any issues with the texture of PT blush. It give a beautiful deepened raspberry fresh blush to the cheeks. I love how NB looks on my lips done with a very light application.
Soooo, I ordered Unconventional blush today.

Of course you'd get both brown and black....nothing less for Elegant LOL

It does seem to be a perfect pairing, doesn';t it?

We've mentioned Lime Crime, Illamasqua, Inglot, OCC Lip Tars, and the Portland Black Lipstick Company for unusual lipstick colors. Here's another one. KA`OIR.

I got my order a couple of days ago. I am in love with NI. It is more pink in the tube than it is on my lips. On me it is definitely a greyed lavender. So pretty. I have only swatched Unconventional at this point but it is definitely lavender on me. I am going to use both today for my "birthday face".

Speaking of nail polish...I LOVE Le Metier de Beaute np. Its THE best np I have ever used. You'll get tired of wearing the same color before it wears off - that is how great it lasts. Everything about it is awesome, the texture which is like a gel to cream when dried, the brush, the way it goes on flawlessly. I just wish they made more colors. I bought the Ken's Korals - a set with matching lipstick & the color is such a gorgeous coral red. I put pics in that thread awhile back. I always buy the small bottle sets for my daughter in laws Christmas stocking.

Heres their description:

specifically formulated without formaldehyde, toluene and dibutyl phthalate (DPB). Le Metier de Beaute Nail Lacquers provide long-lasting, chip resistant, protective color and shine.

Fortified with strengthening proteins and hydrators, Le Metier de Beaute Nail Lacquer delivers rich, glossy, long-wearing color.

Benefits:

• Truly intense, multidimensional color.
• Resists chipping up to 14 days.
• Won't fade, dull or streak, even in strong sunlight.
