MAC Sharon and Kelly Osbourne Collection (June 5, 2014)

[HellcatHoney]

That is so true! I have a bad habit of buying things that I'm unsure about during the online release and sometimes I end up not liking the products. I need to start going to the store to try things more often so I put my money towards products that I will love and use often. 

I did that too. I just mailed my pleasure bomb back up to some chick I met on facebook just to get rid of it because I hated it on me so much.

My list so far:

Strip Poker Lipstick, Riot House Lipstick, Jolly Good MSF, Cheeky Bugger Blush, Duchess Quad, Refresh MSF, Peaches and Cream Blush, Innocent Patent Polish Lip Pencil and Pussywillow Lipglass

Between this collection, AA and Pedro my wallet is not happy with me!

You can say that again

Hmm I wasnt going to buy anything from this because Im not much of a fan of the Osbournes. But Kelly Yum Yum and Riot House are really intriguing me. Must see more swatches! Especially comparing to some similar shades. Temptalia tries but Ive found her pictures to be a bit color-off lately...

The Duchess quad looks great on Karen @MBB. But, what doesn't? It's hard to be objective when she rocks everything. That's one creative blog.

I know the online release is fun and we all stalk together.
But just because you aren't buying doesn't mean you can't join in lol

If anyone can go in store!
If you can please do!
Do not buy something you are unsure of!

Yeah, they definitely look off to me, too. I guess I'm neutral as far as the Osbournes go. I'm just in it for the products!

As an aside, it's amazing to see how Kelly's style started out to where she's is now. We all just evolve and change so much. I cringe to think of a couple of the things I wore as a teen lol

I can't even believe it was off your list! You need it!

 

[MissElle12]

That's why I will probably never try a Tom Ford lipstick as much as I really do want to! lol

is there a CCO near you? They're a lil bit cheaper there

Yes, it will look amazing on you!

It's not just you.  She has continued to rate them more and more harshly for a while now.  There is some serious bias going on behind the scenes and idk why.  

Just playing devils advocate here: do you think it could be that she's been blogging so long that she's seen some of the best of Mac-so now that SOME of what they've been churning out is without question skippable, that maybe she's just being honest? I'm just wondering because I like the fact that she's not afraid to say something sucks and I've found that most of the products she's rated an f , I ended up hating even if her f was for another reason. Unlike other bloggers who can't be concise that are too scared to state an opinion especially against the big guns like Mac, she actually goes there. Could it even be that the samples she is sent may not be finished versions of the products? Some would say she gets the best so idk but I doubt bias. Ijs.

No, not nearby, but I pass by one on my way to South Carolina to visit my family, so I will look there next time. I don't remember seeing TF when I was there last, though! I'll have to check again.

 

[Addict4MAC]

Yes, it will look amazing on you!

Thanks ladies!!! It was always on my list but I wasn't sure if I could pull it off.

 

[Monsy]

many items she rated F i ended up loving and i am very hard to impress. sometimes she just does not know how to use the product or get the best of it

You really can pull it off!

Words of wisdom right there! I think we all get caught up in the hype and I know I am guilting of buying things that have been hyped up (sometimes they work for me, sometimes they don't). I have too large of a collection at this point to be buying things that aren't unique or going to get used often. If I never bought another makeup item besides foundation, concealer and powder, I seriously doubt I could finish up everything in my collection before I leave this world.

So true!

 

[Addict4MAC]

Based on Karen's swatches, Pussywillow, Bijou and Cranberry are staying on my list.

I actually do think it's bias. Something changed very quickly for her when it comes to MAC products. I don't know what happened, but her ratings started going down very quickly. Also, I often don't find her ratings very concise even when she is negative. Sometimes she gives very poor ratings without even giving much of a reason. This is coming from someone that used to adore T's blog.
