WTC is a color that really fascinates me because it's so perfectly designed to be gorgeous on WoC. On me, it's very bleh and I skipped it but on you and others who've posted pix before, it completely transforms into pure fabulousness. I honestly felt proud that MAC had the balls to offer this shade when it came out - so few mainstream makeup companies are willing to put out colors that are engineered for high fashion perfection for only particular skin tones.


My god - your mother is glorious! You look so much like her - same jaw line, lips and smile. Apple doesn't fall far from the tree, indeed! We all need role models like you two - the Dynamic Duo!

Of course. No dumb Berts for her! Or you!

That's what I always figured. I know I feel more comfortable putting an eye product on my lips than I am with putting a lip product on my eyes.

Mandy darling..lip colours should never be used on eyes because the pigments can be detrimental to the skin of eyes or the actual eyeball. lol.

I saw a major YouTuber recently put a nude lip pencil in her waterline and assured everyone that it was fine to do so. I won't say who it was, but it freaked me out.

I know! And she is one of the biggest gurus on YouTube. She claimed it was the same thing as an eyeliner. I'm sure lots of people took her advice to try it out after that

how awful.. I can't imagine some of these people giving advice though. ugh.

I have seen the girl who has the EM line..Michelle Phan, and her nails are ragged sometimes, cuticles worse than mine. It's a wonder people don't notice how unkempt she looks.

You'd be surprised what people use on their eyes.
True! I do get a little risky with what I put on myself, but I would hate to encourage a large group of people do do the same because I don't know how they will react to a product and I don't want to take that responsibility.

yep, it's called social responsibility.. we can do weirdo things to ourselves in the privacy of our homes, but not go around on you tube or in public telling other's it;s ok to do it.

It's irresponsible. Just because something works for one person doesn't mean it'll work for someone else! What's sad is young girls watch these youtubers and try it out.

Wow. I've almost sworn off of lustres (Dreaming Dahlia broke my heart) but that's nice. Very pretty on you.
Thanks! See Sheer is a great muted coral shade that looks great year-round in my opinion. What did you not like about Dreaming Dahlia? I almost got it when it came out but in the end I decided to pass.

Too sheer for me. I didn't realize how sheer that formula was (I had just been introduced to MAC with Punk Couture) but that was my fault. Plus it doesn't last on me.

some are more sheer than others. I have some lustres that are quite opaque and some that don't add a lot more than some shimmer and shine. It is definitely not a long wearing formula but I often rectify that with some lip pencil underneath.

I wanted to get Dreaming Dahlia to make me feel better about not getting Hibiscus lipstick from the Surf Baby collection. In the end I realized it wouldn't be the same. Thankfully my husband found Hibiscus online for me, but he had to pay an inflated price.

They are nothing alike. I hoped the same - I missed Hibiscus but found it on evilbay for $25. Not too bad I don't think but I use it sparingly lol. Sometimes I just look lovingly at it in its gorgeous case. :)
