MAC X Bao Bao Wan Collection (March 5, 2015)

[Fuzzy]

Morange on top, FS middle, SLN bottom

There's quite a bit more red in Morange! Looks darn near coral compared to FS.

I called a MAC store yesterday just to test them to see if they would lie to me. The girl I spoke with claimed to be the manager (I know the manager at that store, and it wasn't her). She stated that they would not have the collection, (My sister works at that store and confirmed with me that they would have it tomorrow, 3/5)...so basically TRUST NO ONE!!! LMAO

My Mac store usually gets all collections and this one they are not. I already have my items for Cinderella and know what they don't have in stock. I guess LJ wasn't meant to be for me

Yessssssssssss! Giiiirl, them heffas in store are known for lying so they can snatch everything up for themselves and their friends & family. I hope the girl on the other page logs in and sees this today cause she sounded so upset in her post.

*puts lavender jade on the goes to see what the hubby thinks of the color* Him: "hmmmmmm..." Me.: "what?" Him: "you don't want to know..." Me: "babe just tell me, please!" Him: "you are so beautiful...but that color on your lips takes away from your beauty...It reminds me of those street hookers that you see on the corner scratching and smoking cigarettes...unless that was the look you were going for..." Me: *LMFAO* •••I agree with him though about it not suiting me. Makes me look harsh. Not feeling it at all. Gave it away.

That's what I figured lol the color looked so pretty, but I already knew it wouldn't go with my skin tone

Thanks so much!! Yes, I can definitely see the red in Morange. I was tossing up between getting FS in this collection and Morange in Wash & Dry in summer but I'm satisfied that I can get both

Yes, they're very different, no doubt about it!

Team orange lipsticks!

Team orange lipsticks!

You might say I'm All About Orange...

FS is a little creamier. FS is ever so slightly warmer than SLN in the arm swatch and SLN appears to have a little bit more white in it especially on the lips, but they are extremely close.

This makes me happy to see!

Yay!

Thank goodness for MORE PINK!!!! I ordered back ups, and will give one as a gift to my friend.

I wonder what it looks like against LVER.

It looks so different in the pics and swatches here so far, so it's reassuring to hear it's different to Ablaze.

Glad SO is so beautiful, I ordered it

...and a BU. Never hurts to have a spare

Enjoy your goodies

Yes, thank goodness! It is clear that they are kissing cousins though, and very similar, but the pink undertones are definitely there and you will appreciate the nuance in color! I've taken various photos and they just don't capture the difference. It's like that shot of Party Parrot and BK that we saw earlier in the thread where they looked practically identical. You will swatch them and know exactly what I am talking about!

I would like there to be even MORE pink, quite honestly, but it is a very pretty lippy in any case!

With your skin tone, SO is going to be gorgeous on you! It is such a beautiful BP! Definitely backup worthy!

I haven't had a chance to compare it to LVER yet, but hopefully I'll get some time later today
Enjoy your goodies too doll!

Since getting into makeup, I can finally understand how things can look almost identical and yet be very different. With some of these shades I feel like we are all like:

I PM'd her with this info ..the makeup game is like hunger games!!! #cutTHROAT

Thats ok though, there are SO many other colors that are beautiful and compliment your skin tone I'm sure I love the LJ color a lot, so I bought some fabric in that shade! Gunna make a summer dress! I'll wear Burmese Kiss on my lips when I rock the dress, it suits me better!

Yess!!!! Got my packages

LJ and SO! Now the wait for BK from Nordies!!!

 

[Fuzzy]

I figured while I'm here I'd do Burmese Kiss too... I had to use indoor lighting because daylight was even worse at showing differences! L-R Watch Me Simmer, BK, Party Parrot. Bottom: Ablaze

Top- bottom Party Parrot, BK, Watch Me Simmer. Side: Ablaze

On my arm Party Parrot is pinker than BK. Ablaze is Redder than BK, if you mixed PP and Ablaze you would likely get BK lol Watch Me Simmer is much lighter.

I bought Style Maker last night. I haven't had the chance to try it yet, but the color looks beautiful in the bottle. It's exactly how I imagined Imperial Green would be, and it was only $7.49.

awesome

Yess!!!! Got my packages :cheer:  LJ and SO! Now the wait for BK from Nordies!!!
