MAC Baking Beauties Collection (April 2013)

[PRESIDENTslim]

i am a complete die hard MAC hoarder. but this collection doesn't light the fire under my bum

guess that means more money to blow on the next collection

I like SG but feel it can be fussy and was not going to repurchase. If I place this order I think I will pick up both pearlmattes and the blue and lilac mlbs...really enjoy those.

RS is almost exactly like Saint Germain when I swatched them. I wasn't a fan of the color + cremesheen texture on the lips. I thought RS looked really similar to SG but someone said they were nothing alike but I don't know what they were smoking ;p It got here and I could only barely tell the difference when swatched. Mostly just an opacity difference on the lips and RS looks a liiiiiittle lighter. If you like cremesheens and SG then you might love it. I still prefer SG and wish I didnt order it tbh!

Just got my Raspberry Swirl & I LOVE LOVE the color too! Already ordered a BU
Eclair seems really dry in the pot

Oh say it isn't so! I only ordered four items from this collection, one of which was Eclair. I hope it isn't disappointing.

I actually find this new lavender whip much more wearable and it still looks lavender to me. I love itt!!!

I finally had a chance to try out RS and PD. I didn't use a lip liner with either one but I think using a liner..they would be even prettier than they are now!

Excuse my broom in the back! Lol

Oh no elegant-one! I hope you didn't get a dud because my Eclair seemed creamy when I swatched it.

I didn't think it'd be so different on a lot of people, when viewed on the lips. That Temptalia thing was a lot of hype, if you ask me. :worms:  (hmmm, maybe just forget I'm saying this, lol) Cozy Up is yellower and less white-based pastel. I'd say it's closest to Playing Koi, although PD has a teeeeeeny touch more yellow in it. I didn't get it because it was close enough to PK for my taste, and I've got plenty of PK to last me. Cozy Up is a color that's more flattering on me for more of the year anyway- Playing Koi looks good on me only when I'm at my palest, when my skin is the most neutral color without extra yellow in it, so late winter/early spring mostly….but when it looks good, it looks great, so I like it a lot even still - just didn't need PD as a semi-BU.

Oh Liba you have an exceptional way of describing things. Thanks cozy up is my faveourite lipstick and hope they bring it again so I can buy in bulk.

Thank you for posting this, it was driving me nuts trying to remember who made these!!!!

I just got pink buttercream today. I really wanted those brushes but just couldn't justify the expense right now + there are a couple of sephora brush sets I'm hoping go to clearance. Anybody who was looking for these, they're up on clarins website but they're not these colors, maybe this was a pic of last year's colors.

thank you!!

i was actually surprised with raspberry swirl. its what i wanted silly to be. i could wear it alone but im liking how it looks with silly liner just lined and not filled in.

So they older one is not different from the newer one?

I didn't really notice a difference
