i was going to get the lipsticks in this collection, but when i saw that maybelline came out with a nude collection that had more colors and of course cheaper. I went for that. To me these colors dont seem all that unique in comparison to other nude lipsticks. I LOVE MAC, but i passed on this one

Can I just say? Extra Dimension neutral eyeshadows should be permanent. Sweet Heat is so amazing on the eyes in sunlight or indoor light. I thought I was done hauling on this collection last December when it first released but SH is just so awesome I picked up Zestful and A Natural Flirt because I love the finish. As long as MAC comes up with new EDES I'll be getting them.

Guys. I mean girls. And guys too of course.

I applied Superb this morning with the 128 and all of my prayers were answered. The brush was the perfect density to apply it where and how I wanted and blended beautifully.

Unfortunately that was the ONLY thing that went right about my makeup this morning, so I have no pics because I look a deep fried mess. This arctic polar ice cap freeze or whatever they're calling it has made my skin dry as all get out and since I'm growing out my brows they look ATROSH. My skin had never been this dry. :( I swear I wanted to put a paper bag over my head this morning, poke some eyes out and go to work. Terrible.

I'll try again tomorrow and hopefully get some pics. So glad I picked it up tho, Superb AND the brush.

SD is on it's way to me, should be here tomorrow. Can't wait to do a look with all of my Magnetic Nude stash.

Where did you apply it? I'm still having trouble making it look the way I want it to look.

I agree it is pretty but I feel like it doesnt fit my personality so I dont know how much I will use it and i dont LOVE it so its part of the reason im feeling guilty
I personally love morning rose, but that is because it is totally my color, and great for an easy, no fuss lipstick (which I definitely need at times!). Don't feel bad at all! If you don't think that you will wear it, return it. Maybe try it again a couple of times before you do (since you have 30 days for the return) but, I definitely wouldn't feel guilty about it.

I'm using it as a highlighter so right on top of the cheekbones.  I used the synthetic side to just kind of pat it on, and then sweep it up and out towards my hairline.  
Haven't used the 128 to apply EDSF but I use the 159. Might have to try the 128 next time

One of the reasons I don't miss living on the east coast. My family always calling me trying to visit during the colder months. Oh, I can't wait to see what you wear your SD with. It's so pretty. I just ordered MA, can't wait to try it out. I've been wearing mac's shaping powder in warm light and soft focus and I ADORE them both. If you don't have them, you have to try them.

Yes, they look exactly the same for me in the tube, swatched, and on the lips. If you missed out on Restrained or if you have it but really want a backup then Sensual Sparks would be your dupe. Not sure if anyone else compared them and came to a different conclusion though.
Thanks pinkpaint as well as butterflyeyes I do already have a Bu of restrained so it is a skip for me, but it is a gorgeous nude.

So do you find sweet heat nice to wear during the day without looking overly done up? I was contemplating getting this one.

You need to get the mini bottle of Fix+ and carry it with you. Spray it every once and awhile throughout the day to rehydrate your skin. It'll help :nods:

Nope. I use the 188.
