All About Stereo Rose

Re: MAC - In the Groove Discussion

Thankfully I was able to get my hands on the last stereo rose MSF at a Macy's in Oregon. My parents were there for the week so I called my mom frantic asking her to go pick it up which she did.

I am so excited that I was able to get one.

I also ended up buying band of roses online tonight. I couldn't resist and from all the swatches I have seen I know I will love it.

Same here in germany, some things sold out so fast like stereo rose, that I wonder how much they got of it. But I did not ask how many they got. because I was so sad that I could not get stereo rose and I still am

Maybe if anybody has a spare stereo rose and is willing to sell it pm me please?!

Re: MAC - In the Groove Discussion

What a bust

I woke up bright and early to go buy stereo rose and it was already sold out! I think the MA's just kept the ones they got for themselves. The store i go to doesn't do holds, and i was there right when they opened.

I'm kind of sad since it's the only thing i really wanted, instead i picked up petticoat and go for it lipstick.. which to be honest now that i got home i dont even like that much...

i might have to sleep on it idk.

Re: MAC - In the Groove Discussion

I am normally not a MSF kind of girl, because I am so oily that I avoid putting anything shiny on my face at all costs. But, I really fell in love with Stereo Rose & I love how it gives a nice glow without looking all glittery & over the top shiny. So Thursday I call my local MAC stores to have one put on hold for me (I work for MAC, & I have to go to the store to get my employee discount) & they are all sold out! So I am just like fine I will pay full price for it, I like it enough. I noticed that the drawer at work had none in it & so I went back to the stockroom to find one & there wasn't any! We must have only received like 9-10 & they were all gone! I had no idea that we had received so few & I feel really stupid because I opened Thursday morning & I could have just put one aside for myself if I had been paying attention to how many there were. So to the ladies who couldn't get one don't feel bad, I freaking work for MAC & I had access to Stereo Rose before anyone & even I didn't get one

Re: MAC - In the Groove Discussion

So I'm not gonna lie - when I first got Stereo Rose in the mail, I was thinking I'd made a huge mistake. Looked WAY too dark in the pan, and I thought it might look muddy on me...

Nope. I wore it today on my cheeks and omg. Gorgeous. It's definitely a cheeks-only color on me (I usually use my MSFs on the cheeks and sometimes down the nose/chin as a highlight/dimension-adder), but it's SO pretty.

Re: MAC - In the Groove Discussion

Hi guys! My SR arrived this afternoon...Now, let me preface this by saying I originally bought SR for the hype. Not because I didn't think it would be a pretty color, but I mostly was wanting to get my hands on SR, just to get my hands on SR- if that makes sense.

Anyways, well let me say that I was pleasantly surprised, because this is one product that does live up to the hype. It's sooo pretty! It is definitely more of a blush than a highlight on me (NW20) but is so soft and pretty! I have very little veining, which I think is good. Anyways I am very pleased.

I had a bit of the same reaction. I looked at it and worried it was going to show way too warm on me. But then I tried it and it looks divine- just enough shimmer and a rich coral colour that seems to shift subtly depending on what it's worn with.

Stereo Rose on the middle of the lid...
wowzer!

It is gorgeous. Really wakes up the eye!!!
It is also sooo pretty on the lip with a gloss over.
I wish I had a lipstick in that color.

The release of MSF Stereo Rose with In The Groove this month let the discussion thread explore.

This is why I open this new thread now and move all posts refering to MSF Stereo Rose from the discussion thread to this one - please continue your talk about Stereo Rose here!

This way I hope it will be easier to answer questions and talk about all the other products from this collection in the original discussion thread.

Please organize all your swap & sale wishes in the Clearance Bin!

Is there a vast difference between Stereo Rose that has heavy veinings & 1 that has minimal veinings?

 

[Fiberluver]

I wonder how Temptalia figured out that by layering Comfort and Petticoat = Stereo Rose? I tried this yesterday and it worked.

I love makeup! and MSF's.

My Comfort hasn't been getting a lot of love since I've been fixated with Gold Deposit and Sunny By Nature but no longer!

Yes - I snagged a Stereo Rose but I also have 2 Petticoat back up's I picked up at a CCO last year. Woo hoo!

All the amazing combos you can come up with.

Truly unique.

thanks for setting this thread up Susanne!

 

[lilibat]

WOW!!! What a huge thread. I could not be less interested in owning SR if you paid me, this is nuts.

 

[marajode]

And therein lies the beauty of color and makeup.
So many colors, so many likes and dislikes!

While it IS nuts, I'm glad I got my SR. I'm really happy with it.
I'm my own worst critic. It isn't too often that I feel really happy with how my cheek color looks. (competing red in places it shouldn't be, blah blah, things I'm sure others aren't even aware of.)
Stereo Rose works with my face and coloring. I am also just really drawn to those shades in SR anyway.
Color Therapy!

Now Petticoat, THAT does NOTHING for me. It does not look good on me, as much as I want it to. That gets a lot of hype, and for me, it doesn't work. oh well, makes me appreciate the ones that do!

Re: MAC - In the Groove Discussion

Hi ladies!

I don't have time to really read through the last few pages, but does anyone know of any stores/counters I can call for Stereo Rose? Just hoping someone could help me narrow my search.. it's a gorgeous Sunday and I don't want to be on the phone all day! Thanks for your help! I appreciate it! I hope you are all enjoying your In the Groove goodies!

Oh, one more question... is this part of the mineralize expansion collection that is permanent for the year... like the last collection was...or is this just a one time LE collection? Remember they were doing installments of the mineral products and changing them every year? I was hoping that...

 

[Susanne]

This is a one time LE collection.

 

[lilibat]

Ya'll can have mine, you know the one I never bought it's probably still out there at a store somewhere.

 

[LMD84]

i'm not getting all the hype about this. i got one, like it but so far have only used it once! it's not a must have for me - more of a nice to have!
