MAC Fashion Sets 2013 Collection (April 2013)

Love that! Is there any shimmer in this?

It does in the tube but, once it's on the lips it just looks like a glossy magenta purple with a very high shine! No shimmer that I could see on my lips.

Here ya go....











Mirrored Plum on the left, Narcissus on the right on NC30/35



Narcissus is a bit more opaque, but Mirrored Plum is SUPER close!

Will swatch later with Heroine l/g when I get it...

PS Post your swatch Shell!

CRAP! I think I need Silly lip pencil since it doesn't have a known dupe.

Don't think I am getting the Silly l/s though. I have Divine Choice and I will wear the Silly l/l under that.

Woohoo! Ocean286 and my skintwin Shellcat helped me VERY NEAR dupe my most favoritist Cremesheen (gloss in general really) of ALL TIME... NARCISSUS with Maybelline's Mirrored Plum lipgloss! You ladies RoCK! (I'd add "my world" but that could be going too far... Heehee wink)

Oooh thanks! it always seems drugstore lip products add tons of flavor; especially Rimmel's. Kate Moss lippies? I actually returned the two i got bc they tasted and smelled like a freakin' yankee candle. And the glosses? They smelled and tasted like cherry air freshener. Ew.

I know. I love these glosses because they have no smell to them. But, I just can't get past the smell of their lipsticks. It smells like baby powder or, something and I just can't do it. Sad really. Because they have really stepped up there game and have brought out some really amazing colors! I just wish they would make them unscented like the glosses.

Gawd I wish I could buy the Maybelline vivids to compare it to heroine but when I went to my Walmart I was freakin disgusted with their inventory. The 1st Hot Plum on the stack had a huge booger jamming the rim of the cap and the case. BIG WTFFFF!!! The 2nd was squished and the 3rd had a fingerprint on top. I've never considered myself a makeup snob because I think DS makeups come up with pretty good quality makeup but after that experience I swear never to buy from Walmart and DS makeup that is not sealed.

Wow. Wtf? That's messed up. Sorry hun.

 

[Shellcat]

You are too funny, girlie!

Thanks to YOU, I have my hands on Narcissus!!! Thanks doll!

Well it's walmart! That's half the problem!

WOW!! That's a pretty close dupe! Don't be fooled on the shimmer though. It pretty much disappears on my lips once applied.

I so happy!!! I fell in love with it the moment I picked it up! I got tons of compliments at work today too! My co-workers were asking me where to find it!

 

[Shellcat]

I went to CVS first, and nada....


Then to Walgreens across the street from them and found it there.

On the bright side, Hot Plum is nothing like Heroine, so it's okay! It does however seem quite close to Embrace Me (from the swatches I've seen of embrace me). I'd love to see a swatch comparison between the two!

Either way, Hot Plum is a really pretty colour, so do get it if you can find a booger-free one! (lol ew how nasty).

Narcissus is my favorite! I'm so glad I backed it up like crazy. I'm on my 2nd tube. Over a lipstick or on its own it's gorgeous!

I purchased Hot Plum thinking it would be a good dupe for Seductive Intent. It does have more of a fuchsia color than purple. The tube color is definitely deceiving! I do love that line of lipsticks, though. I have 4 shades and they're wonderful.

 

[Naughtyp]

looks nice!!
thats how I plan on using these sets too all three is too much for me

 

[bluelitzer]

So true. I wish we had more stores up here. We're the last American town before you get to the Arctic ocean so no Walgreens or Rite Aide, just Walmart and FM. Also why it's essential for me to stalk the MAC website. lol. No MAC in my city too! There's just one in the whole state and it's a Nordstrom counter.
