MAC Tropical Taboo Collection (2013)

[Audrey C]

My order didn't come today - it must not have left the warehouse yesterday. I always receive my packages the next day since I'm less than an hour from the warehouse. Hopefully tomorrow. Can't wait to try Adored! I'm going to try and be strong and not test the CSG until I finish some of my current stash. I have eight gloss on the go, athough four of them are down to the last third or so.

Sooooo glad I didn't order Midnight Mambo. I can pull off the red-based purples like Heroine and FMP, but I could never wear something as pink as MM.

im looking at Temptalia's swatches of Exotic Ember and it reminds me of Metal Rock (a little bit)

Metal Rock makes the best contour when using MSFs, I have used it for years and it really looks amazing- if you use it subtly and blend well.

My phone order of Simmer(sooo pretty) and the 159 arrived today and my online order with Adored is scheduled to arrive tomorrow!

Nope, these babies are quite different. They have an amazing sheen and the color changes a bit depending on the angle and the light. This isn't just a case of a highlight shining when the light is on it. The color actually changes. They are quite unusual. No still photo is going to be able to show the effect.

*faints*

Okay, you sold me. I bought one before they are gone.

I am ALL about the color shifting. Seriously. You made my day. THANK YOU!!!!!

Girls- Midnight Mambo- has a completely unnerving Magnetic Force- the likes of which has you ordering multiples-without so much as a toss about your already teeming vanity of like-minded lippies It is Show Orchid's Magentified-Happy-Margarita-Blitzed-Sister!!!!

Wickedly Iridescent! Smooth and Rich in texture- I could get choked up - but I just took my meds!!! LOL! (ie. reviewed Visa Statement!)

I'm sorry but Midnight Mambo doesn't have enough Magnetic Force to have me ordering ONE let alone multiples.

Ahhh so this is who's photos Janette9687 posted belong to!

Yup! thats my friend, i posted her instagram on my original posts to credit her! She was well aware of it and gave me permission so no thief here lol! but she changed her name dammit! lol

My order shipped today!

No estimated delivery date yet, but I'm going to take a wild guess and say Friday.

Did a B2M today and talked to the MA about the collection a bit while I was there. She said there were a few products in TT that they only got 3 of . I hate when that happens. I know the deal with how they decide how much of everything to ship to each location, but I still think only 3 of anything from a collection is crazy.

I think the girl from instagram stole it from Janette. Because Janette wouldn't have the original without the writings over it?!

no no! she didnt steal them! she sent them to me in a text thats why i had the originals because i live in japan and she makes me CPs, but i think she just did the edits for her instagram. I told her i wanted to post them for specktra because i follow the threads and she knows that (idk why she doesnt! lol) but she was well aware and gave me permission i have her credit but she must have changed her username... no drama over the pics here!

thank you!

Since lipstick looks so drastically different on each person, I guess I will have to see it on to know for sure. It must be disappointing
if it is more pink and common though when putting it on.

I actually saw it on someone where it looked almost reddish in color and not even magenta/fuchsia!

Okay so my order shipped earlier this afternoon. However, all it has said all day is that a label was created. I paid for overnight shipping but from the looks of it it hasn't even left the facility. Does this mean that it probably won't be here tomorrow?

In my experience it will say that for the first day. It will upload by morning. i always overnight and live in Maryland as well. You'll get it tomorrow

If used right, I bet EE will be a versatile color! I bet it will take a bit of experimentation though.

 

[LUVISLUV]

nordies stil haven updated the blushes yet, im too afraid to order LOL

lol. I just went ahead and ordered both "simmer" and "sweet samba" from Nordies, I'll just take back the wrong one.

I sure hope so. I just couldn't skip it. I at least have to try it for myself. Hopefully I get on with a lot of brown.
