Temperature Rising Must Haves

[Paint&Ink Chick]

I'm considering the Strobe because its getting so much hype. I also want to pick up the Polished Jet pencil, RFL Blush and FMP lipstick that I missed when it first launched. I already pruchased BMS Quad and Temp. Rising Quad, Altered Beige and Liquid Passion. To be honest I have so much makeup I think the one must have unique outside the box thing would be the Strobe and one of the quads because of the great quality reviews its been getting. We all know that MAC quads the last few years don't get the best reviews. I'm personally excited for RFL but I feel I probably have something like it already but my addiction won't let me pass up getting it. lol

I think most of their bronzers are not WOC-friendly at least not NC50 and above - which I am - and the one that is (is Gold Deposit considered a bronzer?) is too sparkly for my liking. I've seen a few YT videos where some NC40-ish tones use Deep Dark MSF Natural as a bronzer/contour.

PBI: I disagree: Refined Deeper Bronze and Matte Bronze show up very well/easily as bronzer, but are not dark or cool enough to contour. I use Refined Deeper almost daily. Also, since you mention Gold Deposit MSF, there is a nice MSFN called Sunpower which shows up well on deeper skin tones.

But you know Refined Deeper has been discontinued almost two years now? Matte Bronze does nothing on my skin honestly. I do know what works for one may not work for all. I really wish they did not discontinue Refined Deeper Bronze

Yes but they bring it back every so often, which is dumb because it's clearly popular. I just bought a bu last year from some random collection in a store. I went in for something else and it"accidentally" ended up part of my order.

Is refined deeper coming out in any of the upcoming collections?

I haven't seen it at all. I haven't even seen it re-released...

 

[TXBeautyBaby]

Well if anyone manages to find one at a CCO can you please do a CP. I've been to over 6 CCOs and have yet to find one

I have decided that, with the exception of Underdressed l/g, this collection is a skip for me. I wish there was something in one of the compacts I liked, or even one of the lipsticks, because that packaging is so pretty. On another note I'm completed confused about what to do about an orange blush. I don't think that the ones in this collection are to my liking. I actually would like to find a deeper orange and these seem way too light (I'm NC44). I don't think the ones in AAO are going to fit the bill, either. Suggestions?

It's up on Macy's.com.

Yes, it's LE. You may be able to find it somewhere if you're willing to search like every drugstore within 10 miles of your home though LOL But seriously, it's pretty from what I've seen.

Man, Ripe For Love is already gone - I was stuck on the freeway.

 

[MAChostage]

You know what, I just saw this blush YESTERDAY and I almost picked it up. The reason why I didn't is because it is more coral and I really want something that leans more orange. I may go back and get it anyway...

It leans quite orange on me - NC50-ish for reference. I like it. If Coral Burst does not suit your fancy, try LaFemme Orange blush. It is matte orange and well-pigmented.

On Topic:I have RFL and the BMS quad in my basket on nordstrom.com, I am waffling on the 167 brush. I need to hurry and decide.

Coral Burst from Maybelline. It's an LE Spring color and still in stock at my CVS and Walgreens. I looked like a clown b/c I doubted its pigmentation. Wear time is great, too.

I'm upset I skipped this....gonna try to search one out....hope I can find one now

 

[MissTT]

I think the CVS next to my office still has it so let me know if you can't find it in a few days. If I remember I'll check my closest Walgreens b/c they had it marked down to $3, but that was 2+ weeks ago.

 

[2browneyes]

Thanks MissTT I will get back to you this evening....I'm excited now LOL

I brought this about a month ago and it's so pigmented and gorgeous. I can't wait to wear it.
