MAC Tropical Taboo Collection (2013)

[xasperadastra]

It's a highlighter - it's sheer. It doesn't have a blush-like pigmented base color. None of them do, exempt Lust and even that one is barely pigmented, more frosted.

These MSFs are not like Stereo Rose - Stereo Rose has so much more color in its base. Also, Stereo Rose's metallicness doesn't come out full force unless you apply it wet. These are as metallic dry as older MSFs are wet, but they're also much much sheerer in a single layer too. They're just a lot lighter texture.

It's best to try them in person.

Thanks Liba, I must keep that in mind!

midnite mambo Semi -Sheer however lasting and extremely beautiful but I am not an expert on lipstick I did like Have to Have It Lipliner tho ...............it may blend well with Sheer Seduction I think it may be a good choice also for those planning on getting nude lippies from N&M

 

[stacekang]

HN blush and SS blush I decided to skip Exotic Ember and ended up choosing Simmer and Sweet Samba. Hot Night is much brighter when swatched with SS EE doesn't do anything for me at all. Liba was right! It does have obvious orange swatched on the hand however seems a muddy brown mess on my cheeks with some orange sparkles, that's all IMO. Simmer is beautiful and the lighter part will make for a nice highlighter I think....

[glambition]
