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

[montREALady]

I got it two days ago and I am not sure I like it on my either. However, I loved it on @montREALady. I wonder if she used a liner?

My first time I used it with a reddish liner, the second with a pink. It can be loud, maybe try with a brownish liner to tone it down, cork or something? My friend said the same exact thing about this color. She's about a NW50+, she said she looked like a clown and was pissed, then I told her to use a liner and she liked it better (Cork). After a while it can also look patchy and cracked up. I find that happens with bright matte colors a lot. It takes maintenance...at least for me. I can't just wear it and go about my business. I have to check periodically.

Vino and Currant would be nice as well.

I haven't got Currant, think I'll need to add it to my non LE list with Faux

 

[montREALady]

I LOVE Burmese Kiss on you. I have to believe that if you can pull BK off I can too. Did you use a lip liner and a lip brush?

Liners, no brushes. Brushes always do streaky stuff on me. I should revisit.

 

[montREALady]

Tried BK with Nicka K's Deep Pink liner

You look fabulous lady. I have been away for the last few days because I've been slammed at work. How have you been?

Good! Yeah work, what a buzz-kill 

It's that buzzkill that pays for our makeup fix... Unless we won the lottery

Right! very pretty This picture makes me want to go do my hair and make up, and take pics sitting in front of the fan.  All glamorous n shit..  LOVE IT!

LOL! I'm surprised by the people who have commented on the hair. I think that was second day hair, my natural wave, it had been rained on, and I Just raked My fingers through it. Undoubtedly prettier in the pic than the frizzy mess it would have been in person.

I'm not sure if this sounds a little silly... but, I just got RBreakdown in the mail finally and looove it! But now I have 3/4 of the lippies from this collection. I'm just missing FS, and while I'm not a huuuge orange girl, I feel funny not having the complete set. LOL

Any swatches/photos of fair skinned ladies with FS?

I love how I come to this realization weeks after the release and restock. Lol! Especially because FS hung around for a while!

 

[allthingsglam]
