MAC All About Orange Collection (June 2013)

[allthingsglam]

Not out yet out shopping had to check in to make sure nothing sold out lol

 

[Addict4MAC]

I got antsy and emailed MAC about my Pro Card status and got the email today with my number so of course that meant my MAC overbuying was amped up today. I ended up ordering ALL of the lippies in this collection (don't ask me why!), the quad, and a few other items. Luckily for me I don't have anything close to any of these so I won't run the risk of having similar items. The worry is how they will actually LOOK on me. Any suggestions for lip liners for this collection? None of what I already have would work except maybe the one orange liner I have...and it may not work.

Yay!

Glad you got your pro card.


I think I may just order all of the LE lippies and trade/sell what I don't like. I can't risk missing out and going to the store isn't really an option because I work from 7:00AM until 3:30PM. I'm pretty sure by the time lunch rolls around what I want will be gone.

I was hoping that it would work again for you too.

It is really so weird

Thank you! I ordered them all because I didn't want to risk my local counter not having everything (if the TR pre-sale was any indication some of the lippies will be gone before the release BECAUSE of pre-orders). Plus, the one and only MAC counter is in a Dillard's...I have to go 100+ miles to the Atlanta area to get to an actual MAC store. Plus there is the obvious bonus of the pro discount that made me choose to order them all and risk not liking something versus skipping it and then regretting it once it's sold out. I know I'll be making a road trip to Atlanta soon though lol. Certain things I can't look at online and order with confidence (foundations for example) so I need to go check those out in person. Lipsticks are much easier to make work somehow so the risk isn't too huge.

Swatches on mi arm: Left to right: Flamingo, sweet and sour, tangerine dream, razzledazzler, tart & trendy, sushi kiss

I am 99% sure my list is limited to Flamingo and Sushi Kiss. I'm surprised I'm willing to skip S&S (love me a creamsheen), but it isn't wowing me.

 

[Richelle83]

This is what Flamingo looks like on me, face is a hot mess so lip swatch only lol

Flamingo, sweet and sour, tangerine dream, razzledazzler, tart & trendy, sushi kiss

Yeah so I'm just gonna stick with getting more Flamingo!

Oh I love Flamingo on you! That makes me so much more comfortable with my order! I honestly ordered these lippies completely blind...and not sure how they would appear on a woman of color!

So yeah y'all hey here are my swatches I just 'took'

Ok, ok I'm done...

 

[michelle79]

Betty bright and Flamingo is totally different on the lips....I think you should give Flamingo a try...

Alright....Alright... I'm back on the bandwagon

 

[Odelia]

Yeah this might be an easy skip. What are everyone's thoughts on the quad? Still looking like All Woman to me.

I thought the same

All Woman:


Rainy Season:


Well, as much as I love buying eye shadows, I think I will be skipping Rainy Season.
I loved the name of the quad too!

What liner was that she was using? Magenta?

 

[Bliur]

AHHHH gotcha... thank you... So are you telling me I need both? ;-) LOL

I may or may not LOL

Seriously, Lover is BEAUTIFUL. The only issue I have with Illamasqua blushes is that they are crazy pigmented but powdery as hell.

Here, the collection is only going to be launched at two places on store, I just can't wait to place my order online. I hope it launches here right after it launches on the US site.

Ahhhhhhhh so frustrating! (and I can't even use my Pro discount)

End of rant.

really hoping sushi kiss doesn't pull a milky kinda tone on my lips. grrr. I hate not knowing!! lol

It is surprisingly wearable!

lol well after swatching i really like Flamingo! im glad i waited for it but this is a really great lipstick

Overall i think i like all of the ones i got. Now Sweet and Sour and Sushi Kiss on the lips are borderline milky, Sushi Kiss is what i expected from Reel Sexy when i purchased it long ago, so i can grow to love Sushi Kiss with a liner, same with Sweet and Sour. I didn't get Neon Orange though bc i saw it in the store and CCO and wasn't impressed then. overall good job MAC! i might back up a couple.
