This collection belongs in a museum

I'm obsessed. :shock:

:drools: I just can't. It's too beautiful. I FINALLY get my golden peach and naked bronze today! Gah!

You should definitely pull out last year's palette. Blues look amazing on you!

 

[Medgal07]

Wow they are close Glammy----thanks for the swatches. They're beautiful!!!

I own Nude Dip, not all that thrilled with it. Sort of one of those things, I got it, but aren't drooling over it as so many have been. I find all the colors are frosty. Yes, combine with other shadows you own, and it will fine. I also find it in the same family of colors as the Dior recent release of the horizontal colors with the eyeliner in the last pan. Which to me is much more wearable then the frosty queen look.....

You have a problem with the frosty queen look?

I'm not sure I know that look

but I do have the palette and have been able to construct a few non-frosty-queen
looks.

I swatched it 2 weeks ago and again yesterday and I really loved it. I wouldn't say it's frosty, I think one could make really beautiful shimmery/shiny eye looks with it. The only reason I haven't bought it yet is because it's sold out on the website where I can use my student discount.

I have it and happen to really, really enjoy it. I hope you're able to get it soon. In face I think I'll wear it today!!!

I love it when I look like dancing disco ball. The finish on Nude Dip is just really different, not frosty, not mat, shimmer lots.

 

[Medgal07]

Why is that? I've been debating it for a while now because I hear only positive things about it, but I heard it can be frosty. I'd be interested to hear from someone who doesn't love it.

It seems to be one of those quads that you either really love or really hate. I think skin tone and personal color preference may also play a big factor with this one.

Sounds like a great look for field work.

Which blushes do you have? I'm looking at Flush and Wicked.

They're two of my fav TF blushes Mel.

I'm glad you love it! I can't even bring myself to swatch anything----other than the SBO. I put everything back in the boxes. I have two more things coming next week and then I'm done with this collection. Ithaca fast become my favorite ever. There's no comparing TF to MAC. I stopped buying MAC more than a year ago. I'm to old to chase makeup and the quality of some of the other brands far surpasses MAC. That said, MAC was my first love and they do some things really well. Their business model, however, is not one of them----forcing demand by limiting supply. That is such a turn-off and brings out the worse in some people.

I'm wearing the the whole palette now and I really LOVE it. It's really a great product and something I can use everyday and be completely happy with the look. I also sooo love how big the pans are... no problems with my blush brush getting into the eyeshadows. I love how the shadows didn't have any fallout, even the glittery shade! I can't wait until you try yours! I think you will love it sooo much

. I've always loved makeup, but MAC really got me into following new collection releases and trying new products, but I'm at a point where their collections are getting boring and there is nothing new. I feel like MAC gets stuck in a makeup rut and just releases a ton of matte red lipsticks and then ton of nude lustres. There business model is shameful and they are hurting their loyal customers while they help ebayers make money. I thought this collection was going to turn into MAC part Deux, but things got restocked pretty quickly and even though somethings are back ordered for a few weeks, I don't think it's that bad. I just checked and see that there are people selling Pink Glow for $150 on ebay... I don't get who would buy it there... when it's available new, untouched and for retail!

I just realized I'm buying MAC's summer collection pretty much for the packaging. I really want all the lipsticks for the pretty tubes(I love collecting LE lipstick tubes), but I only actually want one lipstick(Morange, which is permanent).

Well said. I agree completely.

I know you weren't asking me... but his blushes are my absolute favorite pieces from the entire line! I have Wicked and Frantic Pink. FP is my ultimate blush. I love love loooove it. Wicked is pretty, but I need to use a lighter, fluffier brush to apply it or else I get the dreaded clown cheeks. His blushes also stay on forrrrrrrrever. So worth the price tag!

:yaay: So happy for you!!!! I'm excited for everyone! :yahoo:

 

[mango13]

@Prettypackages I was expecting the same fall out as MAC's Honey Lust... but nothing under my eye! I used a flat synthetic brush to pat in on the lid and lower lash line.

 

[YarahFlower]

You are horrible. LOL  but yes, I have to get the palette, rose soleil, blush, peach and bronze duo, sweet spot, paradiso (maybe). I 'm even eyeing a third duo.  I was going to skip.  BUt your husbands approval sealed the deal for me.  Never once heard of a reaction like that.... 

:lol: you're hilarious! His approval shocked the heck outta me! I'm going to tell him how inspirational he is! :lmao: What are you getting?

 

[laurennnxox]

Sooooooooooo! I was cleaning out my purse today and found an unused Nordstrom gift card that somehow was mixed in with receipts in the bottom of my purse. Aaaanyway! I have no idea what to get now.

It's only $50, but I'm willing to apply it to an order of about $100-150. Any ideas of things I should check out? In any beauty department! Since I already have like 85% of this collection.

Skinny Dip in indoor lighting and with flash...I will take another picture once I go outside so the true beauty can be seen!
