MAC x Archie's Girls (Betty & Veronica) Collection Discussion (February 2013)

[MACina]

BTW I wonder if Lucky In Love is somehow close to Mutiny!

I have to compare them as soon as I receive LIL.

 

[Naughtyp]

Oh wow thanks I didn't know both where perm. I won't be getting them then lol because i can live with out the packaging especially on pencils because eventually it will be gone.

uh, good call! lol for some reason, I didn't even think about that lmao!

 

[xasperadastra]

My list is becoming shorter.. I'm not really in love with Lucky in love pigment, I hoped it was a Mint green while it leans blue :/
Since there will be lots of beautiful collections I must to limit myself to 4-5 products! (and they are a lot anyway)

Flatter me pearlmatte (must see swatches and I really hope to like it, I want a pearlmatte!)
Prom Princess blush (same here, I really want to love it, I hope it's a rich pigmented color!)

Lip' stuff, I must choose 2 or 3 products between:
Betty Bright
Oh oh oh
Daddy's little girl
Strawberry malt lipglass (I hope this one looks like Real Posh from Tour the fabulous, a collection that didn't launch in Italy)

I've decided to skip the eye quads!

I know I'll love the heart shaped bag but I'm afraid I can't afford it

That would be nice.

On the pics it didn't look as blue as Mutiny though. More like Mutiny and Teal's secret lovechild maybe?

 

[Lipstickdiva420]

uh, good call! lol for some reason, I didn't even think about that lmao!

lol yeah that's what will happen when you sharpen it lol.

 

[ChosenOne]

I almost didn't buy the Cinderella one, because I have so many eye shadows, but I'm really glad I did. It's amazing.

So I've heard! Hopefully the formulas for the future princesses in the collection will be the same! (Can't think of any reason why they wouldn't be)

 

[Naughtyp]

lol yeah that's what will happen when you sharpen it lol.

this just proves hOw little I use the ones I have lol ( Designer Purple and Undercurrant)

 

[MACina]

I would love a greener version of Mutiny and would be happy if they were different because I do already have Mutiny.

Mutiny is a very pretty pigment and I love it but I don' t need a dupe.

That would be nice.

On the pics it didn't look as blue as Mutiny though. More like Mutiny and Teal's secret lovechild maybe?

 

[fabulousmoolah]

wait what? the quads are $44?

I don't have $44 worth of want for them. This is a longer wait than the wait for Christmas. It seemed like Christmas sprang up before I was even ready but this collection is taking forever.

 

[EmbalmerBabe]

I'm thinking I need to try a pearl matte on now, maybe I might pick up one. I don't have any. I thought the Vera pearl mattes were Not so great texture wise. The dark purple Veronica gloss has me on the edge of my seat, can't wait to see it!

 

[MACina]

Same here....I hope that it is really adeep blackened plum (more black than plum)!

Not so great texture wise. The dark purple Veronica gloss has me on the edge of my seat, can't wait to see it!

Any info on the brush set? I'm interested in how much the set is.

 

[Mac-Guy]

They are usually around 50 bucks.

 

[duckrodeo]

They are usually around 50 bucks.

that's what I thought the brushes are really cute, so I might cave and buy them, even though I might not use them and/or the quality might not be great. They're still cute lol.

 

[EmbalmerBabe]

Any idea what brushes are included in the set?

 

[vaisforluvrs]

So there isn't a Sweet Something lipstick? Are we sure that Oh, Oh, Oh is included in this collection? Seems weird that we saw Sweet Something in the archie packaging, and it's not on the preliminary list!

 

[erine1881]

They are usually around 50 bucks.

Which means it'll probably be $55.

Any idea what brushes are included in the set?

I posted em a couple weeks ago.

 

[Haven]

My list for now:

Betty
Cream soda blush
Bright Betty
Kiss and Don't Tell (I am a sucker for coral lippies)

Veronica
Black Poodle Pigment
Quad
Daddy's Little Girl
BS
Prom Princess

My list will probably change after I see swatches b/c my guess is that I have dupes for some of these - based on the color description.

 

[bluelitzer]

I didn't think my list for the collection would be this short, but I have resolved this year to just get items that aren't reincarnated version/doppleganger/twin sister (backup an exception) of anything in my stash unless if the color is really amazing on me and not just because everyone wants it. I found that it's easy to want something because everyone wants it even though it might end up not looking flattering. lol.

So my Final List is:

Betty Bright lipstick
Daddy's Little Girl lipstick
Caramel Sundae Betty Quad
Veronica Blush

 

[Seven Of Nine]

And I do not like anything with Archie LE. I'm sick?
