Mac4megan and foreverjenn you look like models. I can't wait for my lippies. Nordstrom plz hurry up

 

[Mac4Megan]

I do have DLG, but i like embrace me more, its brighter and doest have any purple undertones, they are very different in my opinion. my skin tone in NW15. GET EMBRACE ME! It's my new favorite bright pink.

DLG

embrace me on top, DLG on bottom.

I had decided against Embrace Me, but now I want it again. What's your skintone? In swatches on hands DLG and EM look really close to eachother, do you own DLG and what do you think? You make it look so lovely. Erugh, MAC, take my money!

Very Nice!! 

  

Thank you!

OMG Ablaze is amazing on u.

Thank you! I really love it, so glad i didn't skip it

 

[Mac4Megan]

Aww thank you, thats so sweet. Then i go and ruin it by posting a nasty pic of me in DLG lol What lippies did you order?

I went into a MAC store today and the MA complimented on my lipstick. She said "I like your lipstick." I said thank you. She said "is that something we don't have anymore?" as if she knew it was Heroine. I said it's Heroine and she made a sad face. LOL. Their display had already replaced Heroine lipstick and liner with Rebel and Magenta.

They did have Silly and Embrace me but I didn't see Ablaze on the display.

I bought Ablaze lipstick and Heroine eyeshadow. I have no idea what other shadows to combine Heroine with.

I went to MAC early Thursday afternoon and the sales associate said that they sold out of Heroine lipstick and lip glass at the store's opening.

 

[Copperhead]

Ladies and gentlemen, here is my question. I have Watch Me Simmer, Morange, Lady Danger, Sail La Vie and Wet 'n Wild Purty Persimmon. I am considering Ablaze, BUT is there anything close to any I currently have or I can mix with? If so, I'd rather save my money for the EDSF. Thanks!

Take a look at Lauren's swatches. They might help you a bit.

I went to pick up my Heroine glosses from Nordstrom. No issues. They both were there. My online order was also delivered today. Here's my haul.

Lipstick

• Heroine BU
• Silly
• Embrace Me x2
• Ablaze x2

Lip Pencil

• Silly
• Ablaze

Lipglass

• Ablaze
• Heroine x2

I love coral lipsticks so Ablaze is

. It's like a matte Vegas Volt, except Ablaze has more red in it. I'll compare it to See Sheer once I find it. I separated all of my Lustre lipsticks from my stash and can't remember where I put them. Ablaze lip pencil is more Intense than Lasting Sensation. YES! Ablaze lipglass is a brighter Caqui with slight shimmer. My goodness, the tackiness! I was instantly reminded why I don't care for lipglasses. Please make this color as a CSG!

Embrace Me lipstick is only a smidgen different than Pink Pigeon on me. I want to say Embrace Me is also like a matte Daddy's Little Girl, but Embrace Me is brighter. I already own the lip pencil.

Silly is pretty on me and I like it, but I don't need a BU. The lightness of the color isn't one I would wear too often. I also really like the lip pencil. The closest NYX lip pencil dupe that I have for Silly is NYX Sand Pink. Sand Pink just isn't as vibrant as Silly.

I already own Heroine lipstick with BUs. Decided to get another BU. I still need to get hold of the lip liner. I love the color of the lipglass, but not the tackiness. Again, please make this color as a CSG!

By the way, Heroine lipstick + Hi-Def Cyan pencil = Fierce! I first only outlined with Hi-Def then filled with Heroine. It created a gorgeous ombre lip that went from a blue toned purple around the edges to a red toned purple in the center. Next I outlined and filled with Hi-Def, then applied Heroine over it. It made Heroine more blue toned.

Definitely been meaning to try HDC liner with Heroine l/s. My order of Heroine l/l should arrive this coming week if you're still looking for one. I tried Ablaze on earlier in the store and wasn't in love with it. Lined with Embrace me l/l and it grew on me. Will have to try it with Ablaze l/l. In any case, I definitely will not be keeping the backup I bought. If anyone is still looking for Mirrored Plum, I found a few more today and can do CPs - let me know.

All of them ofcourse,but herione is a BU since I had mine from reel sexy. I did not use herione except a couple of times since I got it from the reel sexy collection but with all the hype started wearing it like crazy. I am sure once the hype is down I will find a new fave lippie.Nah u look great girl. Mac should promo you in the next collection. I think that would be a marvelous idea MAC SPECKTRA COLLECTION.

 

[Dellbie]

Very pretty and it looks so good with your yellow sweater

thank you

Thanks. I ordered the backordered liners from Nordstrom. I'll wait to see how that turns out first.

 

[jade81]

I wore Ablaze lipstick today and got so many compliments... Darker beauties can DEFINITELY pull this one off without liner... Coral lips rule!!!

really?? the blue?

 

[loulouhex]

And is Embrace Me lipstick as gorgeous as it looks!?!?

Embrace Me IS gorgeous! A bright, saturated fuchsia that's not neon. Gorgeous on me though? Not so much. Rebel looks great and looks the same on my lips, so I'll be sticking with that.

 

[loulouhex]

Went to local MAC store this AM at 11:30 (1.5 hours after they opened). They still had a BUNCH of items left except Heroine l/l. New store rules are each customer can only buy ONE of each color. Also no B2M even though the everything is in standard packaging. (I had 6 sets of B2M I was hoping to use)

i

that rule about only being able to buy 1 of each! if mac isn't gonnae make enough product; it's only fair that everyone who wants one gets more of a chance to get one...we wouldn't have to hoard the colors if the false scarcity wasn't being used to up da hype.

i do wish the B2M was more standardized and more forgiving. there used to be a standalone store here; but since they closed; macy's and nordstrom only do b2m for l/s. it was awesome to be able to b2m for e/s or l/g.

 

[Copperhead]

really?? the blue?

Don't forget to try it with Violetta too.

CC do you have pics of this lip??? I wanna see it. You know I'm scary, but if it's hot maybe I won't be able to resist.
