Really VERY nice set up. I'm a bit strange because I can't put my makeup on while sitting! What's up with that?

It just feels weird to me

since everyone else is posting their setups/malms...

Ohmygosh, I shouldn't have looked...but free shipping is always a good push. I just ordered the UD Theodora palette. I LOVE browns & those are gorgeous.

You will love it. Those palettes are wonderful.

 

[Medgal07]

Stunning--you have a beautiful face and amazing bone structure--love the lippie on you!

DLG on lips over NYX "Deep purple liner" and MAC "Embrace me" l/l.

Prom princess and taupe shape on cheeks. Chanel fantasme over some MAC e/s ( kid, quarry, jete, nylon) and from the Spoiled Rich Quad: "spoiled rich" e/s bottom lid, and "gravel" in the crease.

I picked up RR last night. I didn't own a red so I got it. Love it.

This is amazing on you!

Oh, you will so love it. I bought both Oz palettes...

 

[Medgal07]

Did anybody splurge on the n/p?

I preordered Comic Cute & Double Trouble. Any thoughts on the others???

Oh, you will so love it. I bought both Oz palettes...

Both! oh my it was so hard to decide, but I am a smokey brown es kinda girl & it was just to beautiful. And, that red lip pencil is amazing. uggh

I laughed when I read about your dream!

 

[MACina]

Indeed.... it is only just February

but I gotta TRY to not buy everything in every collection!

 

[mac_aiken]

Yes, and I love them! I wear the Theodora eye for work. Stunning colors. Definitely not boring. I love the red lip pencil as well. Glinda is more the colors I wear when I am not working.
I fought the urge to back them up (which I almost did) but I doubt I will ever use one much less both of them up completely.

Did you try them yet?

Both! oh my it was so hard to decide, but I am a smokey brown es kinda girl & it was just to beautiful. And, that red lip pencil is amazing. uggh

Has anyone recreated the Betty look from the promo pictures?

 

[nikou]

I think someone the other day asked when the release date of this collection is in the UK.
I just had a live chat on mac and :


Lucy: When is the UK release date for MAC Archie's Girls?
Kim: Hi Lucy
Kim: Selfridges has and exclusive 2 weeks early from 21st February
Kim: All counters will have it 7th March

I can't believe I have to wait more than a month! this is killing me!

That color is so pretty on you!

 

[Naughtyp]

Indeed.... it is only just February :haha:

I kno lol I already kno I want almost everything from Fashion Sets and Baking Beauties. I do need to be more selective and buy what I kno I'll use not buy items just because everyone here is raving about it lol ( WOG cough!) Def won't need anymore eyeshadow tho! I rarely wear color on my eyes ( getting 2 EDes tho lol). oh and the princess jasmine quad. then that's it!! lol

 

[elegant-one]

then that's it!! lol

Famous last words on here!

 

[Medgal07]

Thank you! I totally agree with you. I find that T usually gives eyeshadows poor reviews if they are on the sheer side, but I can tell by the looks she creates that eyeshadow placement/utilizing the eyeshadow definitely isn't her strong point.. which is fine, I used to only like pigmented shadows before I could do crease work and outer v work.

Yes. That's exactly what fueled my thoughts. Seeing it done right gives one a totally different perspective.

Hehehe

I was really leaning towards getting the Spoiled Rich palette, but now I think I'm going to get one or both of the Urban Decay Oz ones instead. I would get a lot more shadows for close to the same price.

I used my Macy's gift card to get Glinda. For $49, I get more product. I do not know if I am skipping the whole Archie even, as I have already have a navy and black shadow.
