MAC Wash And Dry Collection (May 14 / May 21, 2015)

[Erinaceina]

I went back today and picked up Hipness because I was in a bad mood and apparently have no self-control when it comes to blushes.

Still loving the blue lipstick How do you find Freshen up? Would you recommend it?

It gave me a subtle glow, the red in it can be used as a very light blush. It's not ashy on me, plus it doubles up as a blusher (the red bit). I don't usually go for highlighters, Freshen Up is my first highlighter (I was a highlighter virgin). If you're looking for a glow, Freshen Up is it

Thanks Erin and Monsy.

Picture spam time! I had Morange beforehand (There's pictures in a previous post of mine in this thread) and ordered Golden Rinse and Hipness. Hipness is a really nice but quite pigmented blush, it has a medium dark pink shade and is called "Frost" but it basically just has the slightest sheen and no frost shows up on the skin. T mustve either gotten a bad batch or something cause my Golden Rinse is really nice and smooth. It is quite sheer but that's what I like about it as a NW10 girl, bronzers tend to go super muddy or orange on me but this allows me to build it to the intensity I want and the tone is more pink than orange on the skin. I'm a fan! Been wearing it all day since I got it around lunchtime and it still holds up on my skin.

Thank you for the swatches. I think I'm getting Golden Rinse after all.

Nice haul!

Did you have any issues blending Hipness?

Nice haul!

Did you have any issues blending Hipness?

Not at all, I had issues with Hot Nights (Temperature Rising) being quite stark and heavy (And since Im so pale the blending became a pain) but Hipness goes on nicely and blends well. I used a RealTechniques blush brush which is quite big and fluffy but it helped blending it and didnt pick up too much product. I intentionally overblushed (Words.) on one side and blended it out with the brush I had used my foundation with and that turned out fine aswell. I have a feeling that if I'd use a more dense brush I might have problems though but for the most part using a light hand is key.

Thank you, this is most helpful

Looks like I'll be stalking Douglas for Hipness after all.

Hot Nights gave me all kinds of grief too. I need to be extremely light-handed with it, and still manage to overdo it sometimes. It does blend out eventually though, unlike Passionately Tempted which refuses to budge once it's applied. Grrr!

Thanks! Hipness has been on my list. I need to revisit the whole line and verify my lil list...I also have Laundry List l/g and Freshen Up highlight on there...Oh wait, that's what Marsha tried so that's a go. Hipness and FU...what else? LOL

Altogether, I got TD, Morange, Freshen Up, LL, PP and GC. Tried PP today, it's a neutral eyeshadow trio. Never thought I would actually buy a lot from this collection

 

[montREALady]

Oh, and these as well!, same blogger.

Yeah so this is for sure...

What are the prices of le highlighters and bronzers again? Seriously whipping out the calculator.

Nice!!!

Has anyone used any of the Technakohl Pencils in this collection? Christine of Temptalia really disliked them all - Colour Matters, the lime, got the best rating, a C+. But i was wondering if anyone else's experiences were better than hers. I'm particularly interested in Sudsy, Coin Operated, and Practice Makes Perfect. Thanks.

Karen really liked PMP. I just swatched it on my hand and thought it's really nice, but I already own two close dupes. A friend of mine got it and is quite happy about it.

Thanks Erin and Monsy.

De nada :wink:

Thanks for the info. I'm going to check out Karen's Makeup & Beauty Blog (i should have thought of that!). I think i may be interested in Sudsy, if it isn't too dry.

In case you've got a Douglas store near you, no matter if it's selling Mac, the sales assistants can order items from another store that still got your items in stock. They can search for your items in the inventory lists of all German stores. You can pick them up in store and pay cash. maybe that's an option.

Thank you so much, I had no idea!

 

[Shars]

I can't decide if I want HIpness or the new one from Nars. But, as much as I loved this packaging. I might just walk away with the highlighter and one lipstick.
I'm in the same boat. I either want everything or just one thing!
