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

[HoneyMilk]

Thanks for all the well wishes everyone! He's currently very happy and smiley, if not fairly banged up! He's 79 so it could have been a lot worse, I'm just glad he's okay

I was just going to post asking for an update! Happy to hear he is in better spirits now I wish him a super quick recovery

I'm really loving caramel sundae! Such a great quad!

I'm wearing it today too with Cream Soda and Betty Bright----LOVE, LOVE, LOVE! Just before the Archie event last night I purchased a new exfoliator, allegedly made with minerals from the Dead Sea. WELL-----I used it and let me just say-----forget Betty Bright----meet Medgal Bright. I am glowing. That, plus a huge shout-out to MAC-Guy who recommended Studio Sculpt foundation topped with Sheer Mystery powder! MAC-Guy it looks even prettier with my glowing skin underneath. Man you're a genius! I also wore it to the event last night and my friend kept saying, 'Your skin looks so pretty." After the forth time I said, ok if you say that one more time, we're making out! Just kidding of course, but bar none it is the absolute best foundation/powder combo I've ever owned. I related an issue, a need and a desire. You understood me and then took the time to make that recommendation. Thank you so much!

TIA,

Possibly check out the Pro Longwear lip pencil's in In Anticipation or More to Love. I believe Temptalia has great swatches of these colors

You all really love this collex. I wonder if I'm going to love it as much as I loved Shop/Cook.

YES! I hope you do---it has its own merit. I really liked Shop/Cook too.

Nice.. Oh man, that sucks? I wonder why??

I have placed a phone order of Veronica's Blush Pearlmatte Powder with free overnight shipping and I'm so happy!!

 

[beautykitten]

I'm loving all of my goodies so far! Ronnie Red is MARVELOUS. I'm kicking myself for not getting another. Unfortunately Betty Bright looks kind of strange on my skin-tone.. Might try just dabbing it on next time.

 

[HSBlondie]

GlamQueen- YAAAY! I'm glad that worked for you!

 

[LAKESHA1908]

Lakesha- I keep trying to reply and all of my messages are being held for moderation. Lame. But yeah, Macy's gets the dunce cap for that one. It can't be that hard...they seemed to have no problem removing the Betty lipsticks.

Girl are they being bias lmfao!!! Because, I'ma Veronica kinda girl!!! I wonder why?

I got my pearlmattes, and have been using them for a few days. Loving Flatter Me as a blush. But dear lord, I am in love with Veronica's Blush. It's such a gorgeous natural highlight and all over face powder.

Erine1881, Elegant One or someone who knows what I look like, I want to pick one item from this collection, preferably a lipstick or a blush...which lipstick or blush would you recommend?

wow, I hadn't posted in a MAC collection thread in forever....

Hey there! Haven't seen you posting around in a long time! For the lipstick, I would recommend getting Ronnie Red and for blush Cream Soda Blush. I also recommend getting both Pearlmattes.

What do you think about Cream Soda on WOC? I've been wondering about it since I don't really have many, if any, coral, peach blushes.

[Debbs]

Can anyone pls tell me how they are loving their pigments so far. These will be my first piggies. I know I am getting Cheers My Dear for sure. I am thinking hard about Magic Spell and Black Poodle but I am scared of too dark bases!!! I am going to NS in the morning to make my hopefully final haul unless I attend event on the 15th.I tend to go overboard on lipglosses however I realized I need to work on that when I tried Flight of Fancy (at the store) for the first time yesterday and I had two un-opened ones at home. I already recvd online order for Flatter Me, Prom Princess, MM, YH Mirror

 

[Naughtyp]

wearing SM lg and CS blush today I love them! someone please tell me I don't need VB pm I got FM already and PP blush, DLG and BB ls and CC and PC nail polish. do I need more? no but I still want the SR quad both Betty pigments ( my mc actually commented on these when I watched Alluras video he said oh those are nice! so I gotta get them lol) and GND ls and I'm trying to find BS and RR and either the brush set or makeup bag . ughhh do kno whi h counter to hit up first tommorow!! mac nords or Macy's?!?

 

[Medgal07]

I'm the same way! It's not too bad really once you get in the routine. I usually clean them at night after I brush my teeth and then they are all dried and ready for use in the morning.

That's right. It's a part of my bedtime routine, just like flossing & brushing
