MAC Alluring Aquatic Collection (May 22, 2014)

[Dolly Snow]

I just bought Aphrodite's Shell and Enchanted One. And OMG that packaging is freaking gorgeous, I wish I could marry it. I initially wanted to buy Mystical, but it just seems so boring on me so I bought Enchanted One instead. Aphrodite's Shell is such a beautiful color, it leans somewhat to pink. I will post swatches later, because I look like crap and it's dark in here.

Woop! Glad you got your goodies!

The packaging is definitely the best thing about this collection.

It is!!! I like how it feels kind of heavy, like those Proenza Schouler lipsticks. Okay not that heavy, but you know what I mean..

I will definetly get Aphrodite's Shell if it will show up as a pinky bronze!

me too

Lip swatches of Goddess of the Sea:




Both in natural light: in the first, the light's behind me; in the second, I'm facing it.

My list for getting this Thursday is:

Aphrodite's Shell
Lorelei
Sea Worship (maybe)
Pet Me, Please (maybe, probably not)
Water Deities/Seducing Sound (only if I don't get many of the other things).

I'm hoping that I can happily skip the rest of the stuff, but I'm capricious and have terrible will power. This is going to be my biggest haul from a single collection in ages.

I need this to come out in the US already! I know exactly what I want since there are so many beautiful pics and videos

I'm not usually drawn in by the packaging, but this is really something else. The water drops look so realistic, and I love the colour too. I love how everyone seems to be buying the bronzer just for the packaging LOL.

Here are my swatches, taken with my mobile phone, of Golden, Seduced At Sea, Sea Me Hear Me, and Mystical.

Up close on the lips

Hi!

I can't tell from the photo, but do you think this shade has some brown in it? Or may turn brown? Is it more warm or cool? Or maybe neutral?

I'm really sorry for all those questions, but on my monitor this lippie doesn't look very obvious. And since I can only order it on line, I'm trying to make sure if it will be good decision.

I do think it has some brown in it yes, on me it's a vey close dupe for cosmo which we know can be quite a brown pink, this is however a tiny bit more pink and sheer than cosmo if that helps, (I posted them swatched next to each other afew posts back) I really like the deep rose pinks on my lips but I know a lot of people hate anything that pulls out browns n if that's the case it may not be for you, I hope that made sense? xx

These are Enchanted One and Aphrodites Shell in artificial light with flash. Here you can see Aphrodites Shell looking pinkish.
