MAC All About Orange Collection (June 2013)

[Copperhead]

I don't see why not - it could be a deep orange, made darker with more black in the color mix or you could have a dirty orange, that's darkened with green in the mix, rather than black - you could get a vibrant camel color or something like a brick orange that would look smokey when blended with the natural skin tone, too.

A grey/orange duochrome would be super awesome too! I'd buy that in a minute.

Can you ever have enough orange shadow?

It's one of the best shadow colors on me, so I usually snap them up if they're not too pastel and I use them all the time. I don't think people really realize I'm wearing orange; it just makes my eyes stand out so well, I think that's all they're really noticing unless they're analyzing me like The Terminator.

Get out of here liba!

Don't you be enabling me!

Hahaha! I TRY to be the anti-enabler when I can, but orange shadow is one place I can't draw the line

OK so I have all of the above. Maybe I shall skip the quad?

Erine, on a different note, what are your thoughts on orange blush on someone with light medium colouring, dark hair and cool/red undertones? I always admire orange blush and lipsticks on fair ladies or dark beauties but never venture there myself. The most orange I've gone is Nars Gilda (which is totally coral and not orange). I know for sure orange clothing does not suite me, I've tried and failed many times these blushes are tempting me though...wonder if I can pull them off?

Sushi Kiss is beautiful *sigh*

Def will be getting sushi kiss

Sushi Kiss is beautiful *sigh*

It looks so beautiful on her - besides the fact that she's beautiful anyway.

I know it won't look so beautiful on me, however. Colors that warm make my skin look grey or muddy.

ya I have waaaay too many grey and taupe eyeshadows too...but I'm definitely tempted. Are we the same person??? That's gorgeous on her. Sushi Kiss is the only lipstick in this range I'm considering as it's a satin. Hope it looks as good on me. I OK so I have all of the above. Maybe I shall skip the quad?

Saadeh the orange blush in TR, RFL, will look INSANE on you!!! It's an intense, tangerine colour that would be dynamite on your skintone!

I'm so curious to see these in person. Oranges and peaches can work on me or go horribly wrong and the difference between a shade being in one camp or the other is often quite subtle. I have Neon Orange already and love it as a super-bold option. It's the sort of shade I absolutely have to try in person.

Do you have a swatch of you wearing NO on your blog??? I'd love to see it on a PPP like myself...

I don't know if I've ever thought about pairing Gray with Orange but looking at it, it's rather lovely.

ooo so pretty. i had to save it onto my desktop lol

With the right skin finish or beauty powder plus the right blush, you could counteract the grey, muddy thing. I get that with some lipstick colors - usually warm reds - but Sushi Kiss looks like it will be quite balanced and look good (but BRIGHT) on a wide range of skins. When we get more full face photos, you'll see. I bet SK will be the most wearable of all the colors in this collection.

Edit: Sushi KISS! All these darn sushi names, lol.

I love grays and can never have too many of them. Same with taupes. That's why I am excited about this quad.

I agree with lustres being hard to wear sometimes but I love them over my sugar Chapstick for a simple look! Is there a release date yet? Or did I miss this?

Erine, I am cusious which blush would work for NW15/NC20 gal and as you already know I am crazy for lustres.

I already have the IF from the last collection which surprisingly, I don't use that much. (My CCO had about 20 of these available when I was there this past weekend). I am very cusious about the Royal Sunset and Honey Jasmine.

I am afraid that Tangerine Dream will be to orangy or me, but I am looking forward to Flamino (missed this one and plan to get a back up) and Sushi Kiss (might get a back up because I am crazy for Corals and peaches. I am on the fence about sweet & Sour...I need to see more of this one. I already have Razzledazzler from last year as well.

Tried this look today with scene and paprika -- very pretty.

Both would be pretty, but I'd choose RS over HJ. HJ is more orange, and could pull more orange on warmer skin, possibly too orange for some people's taste. You can't go wrong with RS! With TD being a lustre, it'll be much easier to wear such an orange colour. I will be picking up SK as it's a satin.
