MAC Magnetic Nude Collection (December 26, 2013)

[meka72]

Ladies thanks for the review of Superb on darker skintones. I was obsessed with getting it until I preordered and the SA told me Magnetic Appeal was a better option. So now I'm just getting MA and pleasure model blush.

I am fairly sure Mag appeal and Pleasure Mod are going to be too deep and orange to werk on my complexion but I'm curious to see swatches on someone NW20 or so first before I cross them off my list for sure. Still want both the darker fluidlines, Sensual Spks, Steel Kiss, Silver Dawn and Autoerotique. Fairly Precious stays on my list. Contemplating bu for Superb and maybe Quiet Roar. This collection is gonna hurt!

Look at my girl!! Knowing what works for her and what doesn't... and resisting! THAT'S the spirit! I cut my original list for this down to only 4 items! And I am still seriously considering skipping the lipstick on my list since I already have that shade covered in my current stash! Looks like we're getting an early jump on our 2014 resolution! xoxo

Ok so how can I get on this cut back resolution. I need help to stay focused.

I have three items on my list but would like to cut it down to two.

In no particular order

Morning Rose
Steel Kiss
Silver Dawn

Wow. Thanks ladies for helping me remove Superb from my list. And then there were 4. I am without a doubt getting Magnetic Appeal and Overspiced. Will swatch Sensual Sparks & Carnal Instincts in store. Nudes havent really been my friend, dont want to just blindly buy those anymore.

swatches of Silver dawn eyeshadow are on my blog (also superb, but we all know it!) Here's Urban decay Suspect compared to Silver Dawn!

Wow, I imagined Silver Dawn completely differently after reading the colour description. It said it was grey-mauve but as far as I can see on my monitor it is a greenish-goldish.
Skipping!
Thanks for the swatches!

The color descriptions can definitely be misleading . It's really much better to swatch in person if you can . Fiery Impact and Flaming Chic looked so bright and intensely pigmented in the pot however that was not the case IRL. Amorous Alloy is the only es I plan to get this time

It's a taupe! In the color family of UD Suspect and also Mac Patina I guess...I have ordered Patina few days ago and It should arrive to me before Christmas.. I'll let you know!
it looks like a cold brown.. or a warm grey!

 

[buffydiva]

Me too, I was kind of leaning towards getting Sensual Sparks and Overspiced but for the sake of my wallet I can definitely skip them.



Those are the only ones I'm considering, and I will be swatching IN STORE just to be on the safe side... I'll get the EDSFs online because I definitely want them all, but those two lippies and Pleasure Model EDB will be swatched in store. Outside of those items nothing else excites me. So happy for my wallet lol!

I may swatch the lippies in store. But I'll probably wait until my next pay day for them. I'm definitely leaning towards Magnetic Appeal EDSF and Pleasure Model.

Wow, that swatch of Silver Dawn makes it look a lot like Modern Pewter.

thanks for the swatches!

Thanks for the swatches. It does look similar to Patina and Modern Pewter and I have both so I think I can easily skip.

Thank you for sharing!

Silver Dawn looks very pretty

 

[Fancieland]

Okay so now I'm thinking of taking the blushes off of my list. They look a lot like some of my La Femme blushes. Superb is also off my list. I remember liking it when I swatched it last year during the Glamour Daze release but the ashy talk is turning me off. Plus I initially wanted all 3 MSFs so it's good it won't work. I already have DD, StF and WoG so I could honestly go without 3 more. Does anyone know if FP will work for WOC? I'm N9 in face and body for reference. I'm with the rest of you ladies! I'm trying to stop overhauling things I don't need

Thanks, it's as I suspected. I do need Silver Dawn!

Oh i know hun. That was for @ladyd12. I was just quoting you and @misfitted about why you were agreeing with me about Superb.

When I got it, I was too iffy about it on my complexion so I ended up selling it. Same thing happened with Diamonds, but I sold that one off because I couldn't deal with the cream texture on my oily skin type. But skipper's remorse is already trying to set in with Superb lol... I just don't want it to sit untouched! I'd use it, but I know I wouldn't reach for it a whole lot.

So of course I had to go back in my email history to see when I placed my order for last year's 12/26 collections. It was 12:30 AM on 12/24, so that means it released late the night of the 23rd (at least for PROs). My order shipped on 12/26. Now that I'm thinking about it though, I remember it taking longer than usual for my package to get to me. Pretty sure I didn't actually receive it until the first or second week of January. Ugh, this is making me want to just go to the store the morning it releases so I can have them sooner!

I just went back and looked at my order details and I placed my order on Sunday 12/23 at 6:46pm PST. I'm not a pro so I don't know if it appeared sooner than that for them. I think I paid for 2-day shipping because I received my order on 12/26!

Who knows what it will be like this year but I'm definitely stalking sooner than the release date.

I pulled out my Superb and WoG because I hadn't been using them to see if I like them enough to justify another EDSF. I can't seem to get any product on to my face. Even when I swatch with my finger I don't really see any color payoff. I used Superb today with the Illamasqua highlighter brush which is really dense and normally picks up a ton of product. I swear there is nothing on my face. What am I missing?
