I like your avi too! I had Hoochie at first but decided to return it because when it dries down it looks exactly like the Strong Woman lipstick. Plus I have Belladonna liptar.

I was starting to get interested in it but I figured I don't wear enough of the bright pinks I already have so I didn't bother with it.

The next pink I MAY get is Raspberry Swirl from Baking Beauties. Maybe.

So, my impatient behind couldn't wait for the EDSF to come in stock on the site yesterday to order with my shadows as planned so I bailed. Then, I called my girls at MAC and asked if they could grab 1 of each shadow plus Ablaze l/l and l/g for me. I immediately left "for lunch" and came back to work with all 4 shadows, my Ablaze items and Weathered PLW e/s. I almost bought a pigment and some other stuff but I realized that I might be doing too much since my ED order is en route (out for delivery today). I swatched the shadows on bare skin and over Soft Ochre paint pot, using the cotton swabs you're supposed to swatch with and I must say the base definitely helped the shadows on my NC 50 skintone. I have a ton of shadows and was most surprised by Silly's uniqueness. I plan to use Ablaze on the lid (maybe smoked out) and as a transition/blending color. It's a soft shade that I believe can be built up to be a smidge more intense but not as much as the promo shot shows on darker skintones. I'll try to post my in-store (camera phone) swatches later.

I was gonna go all the way downtown to try and snag Ablaze but Yay! Restock! This is why I love Specktra. I only got the lipstick. As a broke college student lol, I just can't spend so much on liners from MAC when I know NYX has so many great ones for less than $4. And Revlon has pretty good glosses for $7.

Heroine looks amazing on a lot of people but I just know Strong Woman suits me better. I hate being rational lol.

Yes! My friends think I buy so much MAC but in reality I'm reaaallly trying to restrain myself. I haven't bought anything since Strength came out. And honestly, I don't think l/l should cost what a lipstick does. They've just never been worth it for me.

I'm still waffling on Ablaze and would appreciate some honest feedback (negative is fine)! Hubby doesn't like it and mother loves it. I'm ambivalent, but getting more used to it. Crappy phone pic in natural light.

Ablaze l/s, Throw Me a Line l/l




Too bright? Too pink?

Note: These extreme close-ups that capture every pore are going to be the death of me. Eek!
