MAC Tropical Taboo Collection (2013)

[BeautyByLele]

Girl, you making me think about Lust, Rio MSF and two of the eyeshadows Carribean and Tropica !!! If only I can stay strong Lust would be so beautiful on you!

Now now now . .. . Elegant-One your not helping the situation .

Your're suppose to tell me if won't look good , it might look ashy on me

I feel the same way. I definitely don't think it's the "intense violet" it's described as on the Mac website.

Yeah I really wanted it to be violet I named my daughter violet lol! So I've been more obsessed with any purple lipstick! But an actual violet color would be amazing!

Swatchy Swatch Swatch!

I am an NC37,NC42, NC44 depending on time of year. I often blend a couple shades in that color family for a full face look.
These were taken in full sunlight by a window.

I love the Simmer MB! (Swatch dark part, light part, blended)



As for the MSF in Rio (Left) & Lust (Right), these will be used as a highlight/accent color used over natural MSF, bronzer, blush.
Just too light for anything else, especially when I get tan.

I went to the Mac store yesterday morning. I didn't quite make it to the opening (I was dead tired) but pretty close to it. There were a few people in there but not looking at the display which I figured. It is funny this store runs out of stuff pretty fast but I never really see tons of people in there on launch day. I can only figure that many people come on their lunch break as opposed to me who either comes when they open if I'm off or late afternoon.

I bought more than I thought I would.

I bought:

• Sweet Samba MB
• Simmer MB
• Exotic Ember MB
• Time to Tango MES
• Caribbean MES
• Tropica MES
• Fever Isle CSG
• Adored MSF
• Lust MSF
• Rio MSF
• 159 brush

I forgot to get Ablaze lipliner so I went to another Mac store this morning and bought:

• Ablaze
• Have to Have It BU
• Sweet Pop nail polish

I was bad and bought all 3 MSFs because they looked so different in different lighting. One in particular looked very pink metallic duochromey when I went to a different part of the store but I couldn't remember which MSF I put on that part of my hand. I'm pretty sure it wasn't Rio though.

I didn't play much with my stuff yet. I did play with Sweet Samba last night so this morning I wanted to use Exotic Ember. Exotic Ember swatched orange on my hand and did look like anything I owned so I was eager to try this on the cheeks. This morning I put it on - orange on one cheek but I must have picked up too much brown on the other cheek and they did not match at all. I did have time to fix it so I took it all off and went with another color. I will try it again later.

I went to Saks today to buy other makeup and got compliments on my makeup application and eye color at two different counters. It was so weird. It was like the morning meeting said "compliment the customers on application and eye color today." I was quite surprised because I went fairly simple today. Maybe the products speak for themselves. I wore Time to Tango on the lids, Sweet Samba MB with Rio MSF and Astral lipgloss.

I hope I don't go back for anything else. I still kind of have Bossa Blue on the mind mostly because I love bronzy colors and I don't have a bronze MES that color. So Bossa Blue is a maybe.

That's the G544 I believe. The J544 is the same only the black bristles are a cream colour and the handle is a bit longer, it's also a bit more expensive than the G544. The G544 is a great one to have too and it should be able to accomplish the same result! Here are pictures of my J544. I wish I had my Mac 131 here too, so I could get comparison pics.

Im so confused with the hakuhodo brushes, theres so many! can you recommend some good ones?

 

[PixieDancer]

I cannot tell a lie

It would be so pretty

Elegant-one is NOT the person to look to for anti-enabling! I need to start an "elegant-one budget" JUST for the stuff she "forces" me to buy! Every single thing has reach HG status within a few uses! So NOW I can't resist anything she recommends! I have started avoiding threads because of her! LOL *I'm looking at you Dior Thread*

drop dead gorgeous combo! I got my adored bu today. Love that baby. I was tempted to bu Simmer too, but i had to be realistic. It is such an amazing color, though.
