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

[KaysWays]

Well the Macy's counter did not have not one lipstick from the collection. I was able to catch the restock Friday and ordered PP blush, SM and SS lipglasses, RR and GND lipsticks and the DP liner. Also picked up both items from Nicki 2 among other items. I am late with this collection and hope there will be at least one more restock on BB and DLG lippies. Oh brush set would be a bonus!!!

Finally wore Ronnie Red today and I absolutely love it!!
I couldn't help but 'lol' when I stopped by the Bobbi Brown counter today and the MUA told me she loved my pink lipstick and how it complimented my skin tone.
So much for it being called Ronnie red,

It's not red on me AT ALL, it's like this deep fuchsia pink color... not that I care, it's gorgeous

Nightmoth is amazing with EVERYTHING!!!

 

[Starlight77]

Thank You <3
see I don't have a hot pink blush but then I'm not too keen on Dollymix on me so I don't think i'll be keen on that I don't know. I'm probably best ordering what I definitely want when it releases on the UK site then when it's released in the store a week later I'll check the prom princess out there so then I can see if i definitely like it or not. So want CS but I have Immortal Flower, hopefully there's some differences in them both together.

i didn't like CS on me. it looked like my cheeks were dirty. I did however REALLY like flatter me as a blush. you should look into that one!! good luck with whatever you get! i went into this collection wanting 3 things... i ended up with 9

 

[Starlight77]

looks really nice on you!!

This is me wearing Daddy's Little Girl. Not the most flattering picture in the world, but I feel like the color representation of DLG is really accurate.

If anyone sees a BB for sale or is no longer interested in a back up you bought, could you contact me?

it was my favorite from whole collection and i think someone took it out of my purse today

it was right in the front pocket and i hadn't moved my bag at all and it was gone

i'm so upset. more than i should be for a lipstick

That's terrible Did you message Fairylite100? She did mention she had one to sell on the previous page (not sure if its gone now)

Caved and bought cream soda blush and it is definitely one of my favorite Mac blushes. Love it! I also had ordered flattered me from online. It's nice, but not a must have. I'm trying to show more restraint with Mac, as my collection is out of control.

You're one among many here, including me, in that particular boat-----totally out of control.

 

[KelseeBrianaJai]

[No message]

 

[Medgal07]

Absolutely. I've worn it so many times, including today. You're only limited by your own imagination---or like me, lack there of. But, there are a ton of You Tube vids with lots of ideas. I have a MAC Pro Palette filled with shadows in the purple family, but I still purchased SR and have managed a different look each time.

I saw you had SR earlier (I'll find the post later =P), are you able to make a lot of diff looks? I'm a fan of looks like this, like light contrasting into the dark? I looove, tho I have no blending skills. =/ I'm worried they might come out looking the same with the blue color & black color with Pin up purple and Spoiled Rich.

Nightmoth is amazing with EVERYTHING!!!

It really is!!!! I recently discovered it with viva glam III and I loveeee it!!

 

[Medgal07]

I just ordered another Strawberry Malt lg BU

And a Stay Sweet lg for my Niece's sweet 16th birthday. How perfect is that.

That's so sweet! If you weren't already your niece's favorite Aunt, (yet I suspect you are) you certainly will be! That's so perfect!!

 

[KelseeBrianaJai]

Sooo pretty!!! OMG I wish I could get DLG to look half as purple on me like it does on you! It looks too pink on me.

Awwww.... Maybe with a purple lipliner it can deepen more on you..

Awesome haul!! I love your choices and hope you have fun with everything! DLG really becomes you----so pretty

.

Well, I think I'm finished with this collection. I finally ended up with:

Betty Bright x2
Oh, Oh, Oh
Kiss & Don't Tell
Ronnie Red
Daddy's Little Girl
Strawberry Malt
Mall Madness
Flatter Me Pearlmatte
and Veronica's Blush Pearlmatte

I was really surprised by what my favorite products ended up being. I thought for sure I'd be all about the coral lip colors, but Daddy's Little Girl and Oh, Oh, Oh ended up stealing the show. Not that I don't love everything else I got, but those two are really stand-outs for me, personally. Ronnie Red is glorious, but I just don't wear a red lip all that often. It will be amazing for special occasions, though!

I was kind of hoping to get Prom Princess, but I guess it just wasn't meant to be. If I see it in stock at a local MAC or on a site that has free shipping, I'll probably get it. I'd also really like to find a backup of Daddy's Little Girl, but it's not a necessity. So that's my final haul! Oh, how glorious it has been.

This is me wearing Daddy's Little Girl. Not the most flattering picture in the world, but I feel like the color representation of DLG is really accurate.

finally wore boyfriend stealer. Loved it! It did go on a lil patchy but my lips were already dry.

Did you wear a gloss with it?

 

[Medgal07]

I went to the Archie event and it was sooo cute? Never been to an event, I went w my makeup done but they were like do u want ur makeup done? I just said play up my eyes she used a pearlglide and I loved it never used those so I went ahead and got that, lol and I walked out w the brush set. Oh yea got the cute little mints and pin

Awesome! Which Pearlglide did you purchase???

 

[Starlight77]

Did you message Fairylite100? She did mention she had one to sell on the previous page (not sure if its gone now)

all that was taken was my BB lipstick and an 'empty' gift card but luckily i had just used it. very odd. this was at my son's Valentine's event. who steals stuff at a preschool party. (and it wasn't a child) i had my bag next to me on the adult table the whole time. someone must have brushed up against me and went for the gift card and took the lipstick too.

someone had contacted me in pm about BB but thank you!!

 

[Medgal07]

You managed an awesome haul in spite o,f as you say, being late with this collection. I hope you have fun with everything!!!

So I caved and bought Oh, Oh, Oh. I wanted to get something from each girl and everyone kept saying that Oh x3 was a great sheer plum color. I've been doing really good with reducing my makeup shopping, I try to get things on sale and stock up on my HG items. I'm also thinking about doing a series to help me really make the most of my stash.
