All About Stereo Rose

[mzri]

Ladies, if you're going to a macys or bloomingdales have them print you an item look up. It'll tell you how many stereo roses are in the store and other stores in the area. It has phone numbers too HTH

I am glad I got one and like it, too, it is a really nice MSF - but not an all-time must have
(like Parrot

).

Okay..I got a Stereo Rose! Herald Square Macy's still has some left. $10.95 shipping though... crazy! I'm more excited about Jazzed lipstick .. got that too! I hope I love it... I already have the original SR... so I know I love that!

 

[Yushimi]

Stereo Rose.
Yum

Lolz I don't care what people say I still like it for the colour and the sake of wanting for a long time. I have one for collector's sake and the other for daily use. I love mine.

I think SR created a hype because it was only released once before. And it is a beautiful pigmented msf that can be used as a blush. Not many msf's that have been realeased can be used as a blush and It's a lovely colour too.

Everytime i saw swatches of it before I found out that it would be re-released, it was always on my list. A lot of the msf's that have been released were either bronzey or only suitable to use as highlighting, or were too sheer or too glitery. SR is not like that. It is a unique shade with beautiful vienings.

 

[Susanne]

Yes, I agree with the one release before, Nora - and I am a bit afraid what will happen if they release MSF Lightscapade again

I think I have to wear Stereo Rose for a few weeks to come to a final opinion!

 

[Susanne]

To be fair I have to say that I have the chance to test Stereo Rose for a few weeks - I know a lot did not get it which is a pity!

There should be enough for everyone without crazy Ebay prices

I would like to know this too. Mine doesn't have much veining in it. What's the difference?

 

[reesesilverstar]

Nicole, you're an enabler!!! I read your post and immediately called Herald Sq! So now I have SR on her way. RAWR!

My SR doesn't have much veining in it, but I still get the coral color on my skin anyway. I have no issues when I compare my swatches and the swatches online. What? Is the veining supposed to make it more red?? If so, then I'm glad I don't have much veining. It's beautiful the way it comes out for me.

I was in Macy's 34th st NYC yesterday, and they got a few stereo rose in..

 

[Kareninanyc]

i used stereo rose yesterday and today and it was ok. is it worth the hype and me going to 2 mac stores in manhattan to get it? for my msf collection, yes. and i got a back-up for swap purposes (marine life anyone?, haha!)

i definitely prefer my light flush msf than SR. it's a personal preference. i like the effects of light flush on me better.

i found my northern light msf which i havent used in years and will use it tomorrow.

enjoy SR!!!!

-K

i have to find my petticoat which i bought a year or 2 ago and see for myself which one i love the most!

I agree. I was really caught in the hype wanting 4 stereo roses at one point. After testing it out at mac pro, this works more like a highlighter on my skintone. For me the one stereo rose I got is more of a nice to have. One thing I will say is, I'm so glad I didn't pay ebay / specktra prices for this prior to the release because I'd really be disappointed right now.

In case anyone's interested, SR is available again for 7/30 backorder on Nordstrom.com....

edit: I think it is also slightly more likely than Mac's site, as Nordstrom is taking stock from their stores across the U.S...

I want Parrot.

Okay, can't even believe I am actually typing this. I am paleish (NW20, NW22.5 with a tan

) and I really am not crazy about the metallic sheen of most MSF's. On the other hand, I love Perfect Topping and use that puppy EVERY day.

Do I NEED a Stereo Rose?

Perfect Topping is my FAVORITE MSF and I use it as a highlighter everyday single day and I'm trying to stop so I can use other products I have to highlight with, but I keep reaching for that.

And your question is a personal choice one, but I'm going to say that you need SR in your life because PT and SR are two TOTALLY different MSFs. SR is definitely unique when it comes to all other MAC MSFs.

 

[reesesilverstar]

I'm curious, how would one go about back-ordering SR from Nordstrom if it's not in the item list?

 

[LMD84]

wearing SR on my cheeks today, i think it is growing on me because i think it looks quite pretty - i did a golden look on my eyes with blue liner so it kinda goes nicely with it.

 

[NotteRequiem]

I've been wearing SR for a few days, and I LOVE the consistency! It really is unlike any MSF I've worked with before. LOVE IT.
