MAC Alluring Aquatic Collection (May 22, 2014)

[MandyVanHook]

i use the kat von d tattoo concealer i love it i have very sensitive skin so many things can break me out easily but this actually doesn't and it last me a while too! i have a lot of redness too especially around my acne scars and this covers it great!

Thanks! I don't have any of her products but I hear such good things!

 

[blondie929]

I'm curious about it too! i was going back and forth between the kevin aucoin and the it cosmetics redness cream i got the it cosmetics and i love it i use it as foundation since I'm use to heavier consistency's the only problem is theres one shade and its a little dark for me one shade lighter would be perfect!

Thanks! I don't have any of her products but I hear such good things!

i like the foundation too but after i finished it i started to use something different because i feel like my skin got use to it and its just looked blah to me still gave me full coverage but just felt different on my skin but this happens to me with every foundation but the concealer I've been using for almost 2 years now!

Sample it out and let me know how you like it.

In terms of MAC? I have no idea! I'm pretty clueless in general when it comes to my face and its over/undertones. I try doing the green/blue vein test and I totally see both! I'm working through three samples of Lancôme's Teint Miracle in Bisque 1, Bisque 2, and my most recent sample is Buff 6. I have dry skin so I like the formula but none of the colors are quite right. Hopefully I can get a good sample of Crème Smooth!

It gets really bad when they pronounce La Roche Posay as La Roach Pussay.

Eeeew, that sounds like something that would require an immediate visit to the Dr. Lol.

The vein test isn't the accurate way of seeing because your body can be all different. I can't remember but @erine1881 says to just look at your face if it looks more pink you are cool (NW) if you see more yellow/golden you are warm (NC) if you see a mixture you lean more neutral .
I'm more neutral and in the more fair range I wear "warm ivory" in creme smooth but it can run a little dark.
But yes, get a sample and give it a go.

In all honesty, I can't remember which one looked better. N5 just leaned too pink. I'm just gonna have to google swatches. Im horrible at determining my shade. Going to look at C5 as well. Thanks, Dolly.

Np my dear. I remember trying to find my perfect shade, it was a hassle. But I love the F&B from MAC very comfortable for everyday wear.

I have yet to try that revlon one! Is it any good? I like revlon for a few of their products.

Its amazing! It gives great coverage and its not matte which I love!

Thank you! I like my foundation to be non matte because I do put a matte powder over it. So this one sounds right up my alley.
So I will be looking into it.

My theory is that @Mac-Guy is intercepting her press packages and replacing the products with duds so he and all of his secret PM buddies can scoop up all of the good stuff!

Have you?

Oh man dude lol I was invited to a Gwar concert. I ended up giving my ticket to my sisters friend.
I was not very well, so sad I couldn't go.
They came back black and blue no joke.
They looked awful lol They were covered in fake blood or yea I think it was fake blood lol
anyways Funny story my sister and her friend have had a glitter fight and I had to drive them to taco bell.
So imagine this lol It is 112 degree weather, I live in a very conservative town.
My sister who has blue hair, and her friend had fire engine red hair.
Sweaty and glitter is caked on their bodies, I mean a good layer of glitter. All over hair, shoes, arms, legs, chests and etc lol
Get into my car, and I drive them while in my back seat to taco bell. Fyi they are hammered lol
Did I mention this is at 3pm. In summer, so everyone is off of school and some are off of work.
No drive through for them, they want to get off and order.
Yup lol it happened!

 

[MACina]

Throwing stars and glitter for all my lovely Specktra ladies and gents! Love you all!

This is a nice video of someone applying AS. To me it looks like it gives a fair amount of colour, even though she finds it to be sheer/light. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HiYTrtEtvvc

Thank you for posting! This was exactly what I wanted to see. She is on my youtube account but I couldn't find her.

Sadly missed 2 of their concerts because I took some photos of one of the band members wives so as a thanks we were able to stay for the concert but first time husband had work the next morning so we couldn't stay and the 2nd time I didn't feel good by the time of the concert got to see them rehearse though and that was cool.

LOL wow I hope you had to whose down your sister and her friend because that might have been the only way to get the glitter off them. I saw a fashion show once that had people covered in glitter months later I did a shoot near the building the show was at and there was still glitter in the parking lot...not just a little either LOL

I kinda wished I had went because I have never got the chance to go again. Well that was a great consolation for just taking some pictures of one of the wives.
At least you got to see them rehearse that is better than nothing.

I dropped them back off at her friends house. They ended up getting sprayed down lol when they came back they were still glitter bombs but not cakey.

Glitter is the herpes of the arts and crafts world. Never getting rid of it once you have it on you lol
