I am NC50 and got Superb when it first came out and a back up in last year's holiday collection. It's fabulous and my favorite highlighter ever.

Merry Christmas and happy holiday everyone.

Will be heading to mall, to check out this collection

here are the swatches of Sensual Sparks that I quickly took. This sort of reminds me of Siss but Siss is more chalky looking on me and from what I remember Siss has more yellow in it. With Sensual Sparks I need to wear a liner though because i feel like the definition of my lips get lost with this color. Which is good because thats the nude I always wanted lol. This is the type of nude rihanna should have came out with for her last collection.
And also Sensual Sparks + Hug me = a nice glossy pinky nude






*don't mind Hautecore. I was going to throw in that swatch in the same blog post lmao

That is stunning on you !


I know this is a little off topic, but do any of you out there have Tom Ford blushes? I took a short MAC break yesterday and came upon some reviews of Tom Ford blushes. I was so intrigued, I bit the bullet and bought "Wicked". It won't be shipped until mid-January. It wasn't easy to find, I'll tell you that much! Anyways, what really caught my attention is that it's supposed to impart a nice glow. I know it's a lot more money for a blush, but the way I understand it, it's double the amount you usually receive in most blushes. Do any of you out there feel that you get enough pretty glowiness from his blushes, not to even need a MSF? Just wondering.

Back OT, do you think the MN collection will be around for a while? I was just on the Nordstrom site. Everything except Amorous Alloy was available. I thought some of the lippies might be sold out or even some of the blushes or the MSFs might be gone, but not at all. I found that to be kind of surprising. Now the Punk Couture Collection, that was a whole different story! The only lipstick they have available right now is Studded Kiss.

thank you so much I'm sooo happy also. Like this is kind of hard to believe for me because i don't like amplified formulas either but I'm not hating this one. and usually nude turn ashy like on me because my top lip is dark brown

 

[KMQE716]

I gave in And got autoerotique. W superb on top. Glad I gave it a second chance cause I'm loving how natural this looks.. Maybe the other day I was just flushed? Hmm anyway

love your hair color

 

[KMQE716]

Yassss! Sensual Sparks is the new Pillow Talk! i think i will exchange this one lipstick from this collection i got for another one tomorrow.....Unless somebody wants a Close Encounter or whatever it's called.

Thank you Luvlydee for this. I thought this was way lighter than this, so I passed. I plan to pick one up tomorrow. Cork liner would probably work right?

 

[cr8zy4MAC]

i know this wasn't directed towards me but i own wicked and its ok. I think the glitter shows a lot on my skin for some reason. Maybe I'm applying it wrong. If i want that 'glowy' look, MAC comfort MSF is good enough for me. I still like wicked though. its still pretty but its not much of glow type of look on my skin

thank you so much I'm sooo happy also. Like this is kind of hard to believe for me because i don't like amplified formulas either but I'm not hating this one. and usually nude turn ashy like on me because my top lip is dark brown

Oh, my. If it isn't what I thought it would be, this little darling will be going right back to the store. I'll wait and see how it looks on me. I'm an NC37. I wear purple glasses, so I figured that the color would be a nice complementary color.

Do any of you out there get people asking what blush you are wearing? Just curious. I guess I am looking for that perfect blush color; that someone ... at least one time ... will ask me what I am wearing. It has never happened. Maybe someone once in a while ask me what eyeshadow I am wearing. The thing I get asked the most, is what lipstick I am wearing. I love my lipsticks/glosses like there is no tomorrow, but it would be nice for a blush to be recognized. It would be like wearing a whole new outfit from head to to, and only the shoes are mentioned.

I hope everyone out there is having a nice, mellow Christmas.

I paired it with Hodgepodge liner and it worked so i think cork would def work. Even though Sensual Sparks might be a bit on the lighter side of nude when it comes for WOC it think its a lot easier to work with than other light nudes for WOC because this doesn't give out that ashy vibe. and its creamy lol

Wicked will def look good with purple. I'm darker than you so maybe it'll work on you with that glow you want.
only time Ive been asked i was either wearing MAC comfort MSF as a blush for glow, or Marc Jacobs Promiscuous. but its very rare. I get more compliments on my lipsticks since I'm more bold when it comes to that.

Hitting pan on pinch o peach so I decided to get a new one while waiting for te collection to appear on mac, but I can't find it, is it gone? I hope not!

I'll let you know, once it arrives! It's funny that you get compliments on your bold lip .... for me, it's my nude/pink colors that people notice.
I asked other women I work with if they have ever been complimented on their blush. I have received a "no" across the board. That leaves me to wonder if we are wasting a lot of time ... and more importantly a lot of money ... for blushes that really don't garner that much attention. I know they can be a good supporting item to play off the lips and eyes, but maybe only a few are truly necessary. Hmmm......

I just looked. I didn't see it either.

I am wearing It's Physical Fluidline as a base, layered SD allover lid and used UD in Blackout as a crease color. I did a winged eye in Maybelline Stiletto Liquid Eyeliner in Black and used YSL Faux Cils Babydoll mascara on top and bottom lashes. I applied MAC Ombre Blush in Vintage Grape and use EDSF in Fairly Precious as highlighter on my cheekbones, temples and bridge of the nose. For the lips, I applied Viva Glam Nicki 2 lipstick and lipglass in Oyster Girl (w/ Plum lipliner)

I did some experimenting as far as using EDSFs/EDESs and fluidlines for the first time. I love how it performs!
