MAC Enchanted Eve / Magic Of The Night / Irresistibly Charming Holiday Collection (Oct 18, 2015)

[Vandekamp]

They really need to start implementing a 3 per items limit and start IDing when paying at the register so that multiple people from the same household/residence aren't hoarding for resale. This wouldn't be a solution but it'd make things a little more difficult for resellers as they'd have to go out of their way and re-group for launch days.

Shameful. However, I think with this collection Mac made enough for everyone to get what they wanted so that sharks like this will be put out of business.

Here's a photo of Bite 10, Evening Rendezvous, Up the Amp, Bite Barberry, and Fashion Revival for comparison. The lighting is really bad though.

Nice comparison swatches.

Low and behold I think I like SoG more! Or maybe both equally? Here are swatches of both. Near the window and the one from last night:

Wearing SoG. I used my Real Techniques Setting Brush and it was perfect.

Near window. All highlighters seem to look the same in pics though. Lips: NYX Intense Butter Gloss in Chocolate Crepe Blush: Clinique Cola Pop

Lovely!

welp, true to my flakey self, I stopped by Macy's and caved lmao. I ended up getting OD and ER. there were 2 other girls waiting with me and they wanted to get 5 ODs each (!!!) but the SA shut them down real quick lol. only one per customer. I take back everything I said about ER, it's def not a heroine dupe like I thought it would be. it's definitely a darker version of MLM . I haven't had a chance to swatch OD yet but here's ER. NC 42 for reference . excuse the crappy lighting , I took it on the fly just before work

Beautiful!

Sorry if its been discussed but I just tried the red in the red bag and its GORGEOUS. I want it. I know i wont use the gloss but the set might still be worth it ($47.50 CAD). Does anyone know any dupes for it (its Pretty Irresistible)

It's gorgeous on. My friend bought it today.

I'm swapping Oh Darling for Shaft of Gold! OD isn't convincing me to keep her sadly!

SoG is the better out of the two, TBH, but I like them both.

Top to bottom: Evening Rendezvous, Strong Woman, Heroine, Men Love Mystery

I know I'm not the only one NOTTT wowed by Evening Rendezvous... She's just ok to me

I love your swatches. ER looks more like Heroine on you. Is that what it looks like in person.I see almost no red in your swatch.

I am thinking this was addressed to me?
Thank you. It is a touch more vibrant in person but still a bit more subdued than Heroine. I can't wait to incorporate in some lip pencils with it!

Um, I agree with everyone that's saying SOG is the better product....Amazing! Wearing it on my super pale self blended into A Little Lusty blush. Ascent of Glamour on my eyes. Another love. Try it with a spritz of fix+ for even more vavavoom.

Does anyone else forget that holiday makeup collections are actually holiday collections bc they come out so early? Lol just now I was looking at Oh Darling and was like "this will be perfect for Christmas time, it should've come out for that"

I was able to already get my hands on OD over here today (the hype got to me, I really wasn't interested in it at first). But yeah.... no. I still dislike the ED formula and don't get why it's so popular - too shimmery and the texture feels kind of rough to me. The blue packaging is really pretty, though.

Finally my hubby came home with my oh darling, i ordered it earlier today over the phone so he just went to pick it up... It is sooo freaking gorgeous, waaayy more pretty than the promo pics, for some reason in the promo pics looks way more yellow-gold than it looks IRL, i was afraid it would look like that becca highlighter, the LE one, the "polenta"

And here are some swatches:

My Macy's SA called just now to let me know she had put aside a SoG for me...devil! I am sooo picking it up after work lol. This is my first EDSF, so can anyone rec me a brush to apply with? I'm sorry if this has been discussed. I wasn't planning on buying it but it was so pretty this afternoon when I looked at it.
