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

[Liz Aldrich]

Thanks all who responded! I feel much better now.

 

[HoneyMilk]

I wonder how many orders were placed in the last hour and a half?!

 

[ChosenOne]

Wow, I'm away from the site for 2 and a half hours and there are 456 new posts in this thread!!! Maybe I'll just skim...lol. I see AG finally went up on the site for everyone (got a text notification at 6:48 PM EST), so I hope everyone was able to get what they want!

ETA: How cute is the AG intro on the home page?! And what's this about Pro members receiving an AG pin? I hope one comes with my order!

 

[Jessa]

Well, I caved under pressure and Yazmin is CPing me the blushes, pearlmattes, Betty Bright and DLG!
Thanks so much Yazmin, you're wonderful!

It comes to £15 less than what I'd have paid in the UK, even with shipping! I'll check out the quads when they come out here

If Baking Beauties has cute packaging I'm in trouble. It's a lot easier to say no when it's in the plain black.

 

[mallory1712]

I still have not received a text or email Hahahaha oh MAC

 

[makeupgrrl]

Woo hoo!! So happy everyone is getting everything they wanted! I just placed my second order, all the hype over everything gave me skippers remorse after I placed my first order this morning.

 

[Divinity]

Wow, that is some serious haulage!  I hope you'll post a look! 

You bet! So glad I'm not alone in spending hat I did, lol. We DO deserve it!

Awesome, glad you got your goodies!

I ordered Shell Pearl this morning, and just ordered Flatter Me Pearlmatte...hoping they don't look the same on. I just didn't want to regret not getting it after Karen talked it up so much!

 

[lilinah]

O! M! G! i don't check this board for a couple days and now i have over 3,000 unread messages!

I got my e-mail from MAC about an hour ago and i placed my small order - Boyfriend Stealer lipstick, Mall Madness and Feelin' So Good glosses. I want the two Betty pigments, but i'm trying to be circumspect - probably a mistake

Also, i have been meaning to share some swatches i made a few days ago. The colors aren't quite 100%, but i hope they're helpful.

Sorry, couldn't swatch the Pearlmattes because the store didn't have them on Monday.

PIGMENTS
TOP: Cheers My Dear - Light Lavender-pink
BOTTOM: Lucky in Love - Shimmering Light Blue Green (aqua)
I tried to correct this, but... the pigments are a tiny bit bluer than they appear - the pink is a bit more lilac.



LIPSTICK COMPARISONS
I've made this bluer than the original photo, but it still reads rather yellow. I'm between 15-20, neutral.


LIPSTICKS AND GLOSSES and a little comparison
This is uncorrected - my arm looks about normal, but lips products are a bit too pink...

Where does MAC ship their products out of? Im in connecticut and slightly worried I didnt upgrade shipping.

 

[Divinity]

Still haven't gotten my text...why have that option if they don't send it? Honestly you guys were my 411!

 

[ChosenOne]

LOL wow I love seeing them all cheer in unison!!! You're too funny

 

[bevcita]

Haha who was I kidding? I thought I'd be able to put the phone down and get other things done but I'm still here totally engrossed with what everyone just ordered I wonder which items will sell out first?i thought Betty Bright would be gone but it's still available thank god!

 

[gildedangel]

My order from yesterday shipped out of Kentucky, so you should be fine.

Does DLG compare to any other MAC pinks?
