MAC Baking Beauties Collection (April 2013)

[BlissfullyYours]

I ended up ordering it online.  I can't believe it came today.  I only did the regular free shipping.  Now if it was a newly released collection and a big order it probably would have taken over a week with regular shipping. LouGarner - do you mean me?  I'm in NYC and have plenty of mac stores and counters but I hate running around from store to store looking for one thing but I'm too impatient to wait for shipping.  I want instant gratification.   Anyway, I can't wait to try Eclair.

I hope you like it, mine just shipped today so I can't wait to try.

Yay! Is it wearable by itself? Like pigmented enough?

I know you're not asking me, but it definitely is. It's so gorgeous that I have to force myself to put shadows over it lol. Even then I've mainly been using it with Creole Beauty from the Colour 4 quad, which is a similar shade with more yellow-golden undertones... it changes the color slightly but is the closest match to Éclair that I own. In the summertime when I'm even lazier than I am now (xD), it's only going to be Éclair.

I just posted it.  I wish I got a pic of it, I'm going to start carrying my camera again. I'll check out that scrub.

I want to try that scrub my lips are very sensitive does it cause any breakouts around your lips most scrubs I have tried did

Swatches

L-R Teal Reflects Glitter (I think, it was a sample and she didn't label this one) - this is swiped on dry/no base; Cheery Cherry, Lavender Whip (doesn't lean so pink IRL), Mooncake, Eclair. Mooncake was 2 swipes, Eclair just 1.

Thanks Jennyap! Mooncake is pretty. I purchased Eclair but was uncertain about Mooncake.

You're welcome. It is very sparkly! And probably not a shade I'd wear much, so I'm glad I got a sample but don't regret not purchasing it.

I only got lw and pd. I def will.be using lipliners with this stuff. And that was all I saw worth getting.

 

[trina11225]

Oops I forgot I got beautiful eclair. Rs went back as i had at least four similar colors already. But it was hard to send back.

Martiangurll, please share your thoughts on how you like Mooncake PP once you've used it. Thanks!!!

Still waiting to play, I was in a rut today, but in the pot it looks like Rubenesque--an oldie but a goodie! I think less golden than Rubenesque and more beigey-white gold if that helps at all...

Okay not going to lie, a little nervous about posting but here is RS. I really wasn't sure about it at first because it seemed really stiff but as I've used it more, I've come to really like it. Hopefully, you will too! Sorry, picture's really blurry.

those swatches are lovely! TY for posting. I have both of those PP + FF and I have yet to experiment. You are making me want to track down the new LW however.
Maybe you got a defective one? I wouldn't say it makes my e/s flake off but it doesn't make an opaque base so it doesn't do anything to make the color brighter like other ones. It just adds those pretty silver shimmers. IDK, its sort of unique. I wonder if we try to layer it over or under another PP? Maybe just swap it back to MAC for FF??? I did really hate it at first b/c I love the pink color in the pot and I get none of that on my lid, its just like transparent with glitters but the glitters are so pretty. I could be biased, I am sort of a glitter bimbo. It is definitely different from the other PP, and that could be good or bad depending. I am trying to experiment with how to use it. Similar to the pressed pigments IMO, as they add very little color but lots of pretty micro glitter. (THEY migrate though, big time)
I have it but haven't played yet. I think they are still on the US site!

I got one from the holiday collection, not one of the new ones. Did they change the new ones? Because mine has gold shimmer, not silver. I like the color, so I might try just using it on it's own, it shows up on my lid the same color as it does in the pot, but the amount of work I have to do to get an eyeshadow to show up over it was just bad. It was like that when I first bought it too, so it isn't going bad or anything.
