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

[LAKESHA1908]

lmao,Yeah I had to do the same thing with hubby. He's always like you always on this specktra site and he didn't know that the archie's collection that was real because of the packaging lol. My hubby didn't realize how serious mac was until I ordered from the strength collection he actually saw me in action what i go through to actually purchase the stuff online lol.

Ahahahaha so, he was like when do you have a chance to wear all of this, and then his analogy was so, basically, it's like getting a pair of Jordan's you may not wear them right away but, you have them in your collection and you pull them out when you have something to rock with it, I said yesssssssssssssssssssssssssss exactly!!!

I ORDERED THE BRUSH SET!

 

[prettygirl]

My order should be here any minute now! I'm so excited, I ordered BB, DLG, the brush set, and Comic Cutie! I should have over nighted my order! It always takes 6 days for packages to arrive for me. You guys have me tempted to order RR, but I already have ruffian red, CIS, and absolute power. Ahh, first world problems!!! Lol.

 

[GlamYOURUs]

Thanks! Hope everyone is doing well.

Oh what quad and lippie is that!?

 

[LAKESHA1908]

The lipsticks are back in stock on MAC website!!!

fingas crossed for a BU of GND! Thanks Blondie!

 

[CartoonChic]

Haha...Glad we were both on it, CartoonChic!!

Lol, yeah!

I was watching the restock while it was happening like with the Strength restock. I was just randomly checking the website for the brush kit and saw it was available. I could add it to my cart, but it kept being removed every time I tried to check out. Then I saw the Sold Out message was gone from the lipsticks. I was just waiting for the Add To Bag button to show up for them so I could check out.

Also, I know this is OT but I'm very intrigued by these new NARS powders. Are they finishing powders? Highlighters? Or plain old powder for foundation/coverage purposes??? I'm also curious about those Hourglass HLs but I don't even know which one would work best for me... One more thing, I've discovered that the BB Cream in Extra Light is a no go for me. At first I looooved it, now I hate it. I never even opened the bottle of it that I bought & can't return it, damn it. I feel like it's too much coverage. What a waste of money, for me. I am looking for something with a little coverage, with SPF but I'd rather have a powder & not a fluid...any recommendations? I like the MSF in Medium, but just wondering if there is something better for me to use.

Haha I knew it! Have you received your first order yet? Mine arrives today as I told you so I haven't been able to try them. No idea what I would need to back up. Hopefully nothing. April will be here before we know it.

 

[HSBlondie]

No problem! Glad I could help!!

Maybe you are using too much? A pea-sized amount is enough.

Another thought: As you like the MSFN in Medium, the BB in Extra Light is probably far too light for you.

HTH

I had to reload my flash player on the Mac website b/c it crashed. And that's when I saw exactly what you saw, CartoonChic, the sold out message gone from the lipsticks! I was like "no way! If the Add to Bag button shows up I'm gonna be be the happiest person ever...and I have tell Specktra!! Haha!

 

[prettygirl]

Wow, right when I posted.. The ups guy drove behind my office (I always know when he's here because I can hear him drive by.. Hehe) and hand delivered it to me!! He's really the nicest ups guy ever!! And it doesn't hurt that he's always bringing me presents (my packages)! Woo hoo!! The pin is bigger than I thought too!!

 

[prettyungthang]

Lipsticks restocked on MAC WEBSITE!!!

 

[xStarryEyedX]

the counter by me was pre-selling, not sure if everywhere else is/if they're supposed to be.. but I grabbed Betty Bright + the peachy highlight powder. I wanted to love the 2 pink lipsticks, but they looked like crap on me . the powder is really really pretty though.

 

[lifesentropy]

I received BB in the mail yesterday and I was surprised at how unique the color is. It's much pinker and less peach/coral than I thought it'd be. I posted these comparison swatches on my blog and thought it'd be helpful here too.​
