MAC Veluxe A Trois Collection (August 13, 2015)

I agree re QS=Acai's CS cuz. I'm going to get PT. But man, those cremesheens, I had to lay it on to get the colors I got in my swatches for FS and QS.

OMG I totally didn't notice PT and HT on you!

I agree about the formula...I think mine were 2-3 swipes each and they are still so sheer. They wear off rather quickly too, which is why I am debating on FS and QS. They are very similar to Tats and Acai and I like mattes better, but it might be nice to have a sheerer option when I don't feel like such a bold lip.

Here's another pic of them on me in sunlight:


HT is just a few shades darker than my skintone, I could never pull it off. I love the beautiful color of PT though and the shimmer!

Here are my swatches in the bright sunshine. I'll put it in my other post.

I'm getting very excited about Quelle Surprise. Do you love it?

Pillow Talk looks beautiful with your skin tone.

Hmm. I was expecting Quelle Surprise to be more purple and less berry. Ah well, money saved lol.

Shars........ Are you going to pass on QS?

Thank you It's hard for me to find a lighter neutral that doesn't wash me out or look too dark so I am definitely getting a BU.

I ended up getting Heaux and Royally Riotous. I like Heaux, but I haven't gotten around to trying on Royally Riotous yet.

Hi Mandy. Loving your avatar. You look amazing. Sorry to hear about your husband's grandmother. I guess I missed that update. Do you like the new Heaux more than the RiRi Heaux?

 

[NaomiH]

Swatches in good lighting for you ladies! If you want comparisons with anything let me know and if I own it I'll do it for you! Top to bottom: QS, Heaux, RR, PT, HT.

Your new avi is gorgeous!

Hi Mandy. Loving your avatar. You look amazing. Sorry to hear about your husband's grandmother. I guess I missed that update. Do you like the new Heaux more than the RiRi Heaux?

Aww, thanks! I chopped off 14 inches of hair and went from black to blonde. just needed a change! I don't own the RiRi Heaux, but I wish I did! I think I would prefer it if I had it. This Heaux is nice, though. I did get a tiny bit of bleeding with it, but I didn't wear a liner that day and I'm sure that would have fixed that.

No, please. I'd prefer if it had more pigment and/or a different formula. I'll wait until I can swatch it to decide for sure. I'm still contemplating Royally Riotous.

I had to swipe a million times to get the color I got I felt! I'm thinking of RR too... I definitely want PT.

Mandy! Omg love your new look! :eyelove: You can pull off anything ♡

It's amazing. I already had it, but ordered another for my kit. It's really beautiful, the perfect amount of neutral + color.

Thanks!
