I was on my MAC no buy (for the most part) when Heroine first came out so I didn't pay attention to anything that came out. I never paid attention to the actual color because I didn't care. Now I'm playing catch up with some MAC items so the repromotes are new for me (well some of them are)
most of the mac stuff is new to me lol. I didn't realize heroine was a pretty color until it sold out the first time it came out in the reel sexy collection and ended up paying 30 dollars for it on ebay smh.

Oh boo, I just received Tropica and Time to Tango which I was highly anticipating and I am not able to get it to work. I tried a 239 brush both dry and wet and all I get is a glittery mess that looks more silver than any other color. The more I tried to pack on gently the worse it got. Back to the store they go :( Tropica is so pretty but I can't justify having just a pretty piece of makeup to stare at at this point.

Are you patting the color on or are you attempting got sweep it on?

My mini haul and a full size of Naked (thanks to you all in the riri thread) I had a sample that was running low. The blushes should be here this week. I used adored and the 159 yesterday for a wedding and it was just perfect! Thinking about getting a backup of adored.

I'm loving Adored too. I picked one with the most coral in it that they had.

Oh! It was one of the Nakeds I meant to wear today. I looked through my drawer and saw Lithe so I went with that one. Next time.

Just got my Adored MSF today and it has a lot of the champagne color in it. Kinda wished it had more of the coral/peach in it. Maybe this means I have to get a back up with a lot of coral, then I'll have the best of both worlds!

Went to MAC today and picked out a Rio with a good amount of pink. Yay!

Also popped into Sephora and did some damage. And they were out of the Dior Coral Glow but still had the tester. I want that bad boy! It's sooo beautiful!

Yea my zebra one is giving me a really hard time figuring out how to wear it... Its too brown for a blush since I am wicked pale... But too pink for a contour or bronzing effect.... Alas...lt may become an eyeshadow for me
