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

[ChosenOne]

I actually use a lip balm, in my case that horrid little tin that is impossible to open by rosebud, and sugar by my sink. I keep a wee little bit of sugar in a shallow container and dip my finger into salve then sugar and rub rub rub. After I rinse it off I apply balm on it's own. You might want to consider just using the balm of choice with a little sugar instead of making a totally new product to see if you like the exfoliation

Thanks to both of you for the ideas!

Did Bloomingdales ever put the lipsticks up?

I'm pretty sure they sold out, as the Veronica lipsticks and Betty Bright are already gone on the Dillard's site, too, and I had a DLG in my Bloomingdale's cart earlier before it disappeared.

 

[YUMYUMYMUA]

Did anyone get the brush set and tried it? Wonder if i should get it.

You are welcome, please let me know how you like it, Peachsuns

I still have to wait a bit for my goodies.

Great idea! I have (will have BB) both. I'll try that! Thank you, MACina!

My brush set is suppose to come today. I'm wondering how it is too.

I think so. They probably sold out at the speed of light.

 

[MaitaiFluff]

damn.

I think their website is glitching. It seems too weird that their wouldn't be a trace of the non-sell out lipsticks and lipglasses as well. It's also being really weird with my loyalist points and order status as well.

 

[purplemaren]

Grrrrrrr. I love BB, it is such a pretty color, but it looks absolutely neon on me. Gonna have to play with it

Ahh, DLG lightly smooshed on is GORGEOUS!!! What liners are you guys liking with it?

And, do we know what color just the Coral hearts are in the Flatter Me pearlmatte? I LOVE LOVE LOVE it whatever it is.

I want it in a blush of its own.

And....the rest of my orders just arrived................

I don't really like ordering from bloomies online because of this.

Temptalia has a swatch of the coral hearts in the FM p/m. I don't know what color it is but it really is pretty.

I want to depot the blushes... do you think I can just use the ol' blowdryer to remove the glue trick? I depoted a few older blushes and had very very minor cracking on the edge but was just curious if there was a better way for blushes.

 

[bluelitzer]

I can't wait for my entire order to come today! With a pin too!
Torn between getting cream soda or just sticking with my blush stash in the same color family (there's a lot I won't go through in a lifetime!).

it's like that sad song..."torn between two lovers, feeling like a fool... lovin' both of you is breakin' all the ruuuuules...."

MAC Glamourdaze vs Archie's girls collection lipsticks


standard shade selection??


Anyways I'll be grabbing a darker lippie and a light pink one I think, which I didn't get from Glam.daze..)

 

[bluelitzer]

Yeah I remember now why I did not get Girl Next Door, it reminds me alot of Beauty which I have and I can't wear it without heavy smokey eyes for a night time look.

I just got my brush set. Its SOO adorable in person. The brushes are soft & look good to me. The combination of the brushes you get is great.

 

[luvlydee]

the pearlmattes applied with a brush. I feel like it gives a shine but no need to get both if you are a woc. I'm going to be selling flatter me since i like how veronicas blush looks like in the pan lol

 

[Divinity]

Did anyone get the purple liner? I didn't want it but then I saw it on T and I liked it. A lot. But then I swatched it at the store and wasn't impressed.

I ordered this one. I am a purple fanatic and love the dark color with the sparkles. I won't get to play with it for a while as it was a separate order with Norsdstrom. In total I got: Both prarlmattes Both blushes Both palettes BB Oh Oh Oh DLG RR Mall Madness Strawberry Malt Summer sweetheart Kiss and don't tell Black Poodle Brush set Coin purse Purple and brown liners AND... UD Glinda Nars reflecting powder Cle de peau concealer I'm cut off....until April
