AU Colour Story Release Dates

[tana2210]

im still umming about colour craft blushes, im thinking of gettinga pink, i usually avoid them becuase of my redness but i think i need a pink blush, im nw20 do you girls think Hand-Finish - Light pink with deep gold veining or Daft Pink - Deep blue pink with light white gold veining would suit better? im not up with all the blue undertone theory lol. bu tippy look shocking on me if that gives any indication

Tippy was a blue-pink.
I think hand-finish is more what your after. Its described as a light pink, which I think would be better for someone with redness

Also, tippy was quite bright, so maybe thats why you didnt like it?

 

[tana2210]

thanks

yeh i thought id love tippy lol, then the MUA put both that one one side and fun and games on the other and tippy just amplified my redness really bad, i looked like id been in the sun a lil to long whereas coral type blushes seem to warm up my skintone

So I just realised that Colour Craft and Graphic Gardens are being released on the same day in the US?
Does this mean it will be both on the same day for us too?

 

[sambibabe]

^^ Nah, Color Craft & Euristocrats II are released on the same day here. Don't know about Graphic Gardens, but I doubt MAC would release three collections on the same day!

BB do you spend allot of weekends at home and your clothes are from 5 seasons ago? hehehehehe, how do you afford all that! I'm broke by the end of each pay cycle and I don't buy nearly as much as that

Well, I live at home and I share a car with my mum.
So no rent, no bills, all I have is my phone bill!

My clothes are mostly from a season or two ago because I've put on a lot of weight in the last 3 years

But I've lost 7kg and have 15kg to go, so once that comes off, I'll buy less make-up (or work more,

)

I live at home too but I have a car that I'm trying to pay off ASAP and I pay board so that explains it! Plus my shoe habit is as bad as my makeup one

Yay for the 7kgs! You must be so proud of youself and it's mega exciting when you see the weight coming off. At least makeup doesn't add to your waistline, it just makes your purse more skinny.

 

[sambibabe]

Way to go BB!! I need to lose 5kg.. I have been saying that for the last.. hmm.. for awhile lol

Ohh I used to have a shoe habit! Shoes are fun!

But I literally have so many pairs that have been worn once so I've really cut back. But, Ive been looking for some nice boots for winter, and nothing (in my price range!) is appealling

Also, I just want to say Colour Craft is an exception I have a BIG weakness for MSFs

I forgot this bit

Yes I am SO happy, Im 1/3 of the way

I LOVE buying make-up cuz its actually makes me feel good about myself, unlike shopping for JEANS

which makes me feel like I should just go home and hibernate for winter

especially the sales assistants that say, "oh the 12 doesn't fit? well its our largest size" (Im looking at you LIVE!)

 

[simplyenchantin]

I just moved home so in the next few months I will have heaps more money than I'm used to having which is exciting

I'll probably start helping my mum with bills n stuff tho. Luckily my car was never on finance, and coz I'm trying to lose lots of weight too I don't buy any clothes! Yay for money to spend on MAC

 

[simplyenchantin]

Haha I know what you mean BB.. I *wish* I was size 12 I don't go shopping at all coz it's so depressing lol, I don't even bother walking into shops like that coz nothing fits! I will be skinny soon though.. like.. in a year or something lol!

 

[rockin26]

I'm a size 12 and shopping for jeans sends me mad too! I tend to find too that the cheapie brands like at Central Lane etc fit me better than the more expensive 'higher quality' brands and hold up better over time. All my Lee and Golf Punk jeans have stretched and gone out of shape but my el cheapo ones have some elastine in them and still hug me quite well so I wear them all the time.

I hate when jeans stretch in the butt and sag and you look like your wearing a nappy!

Urgh YES! I bought a pair of "7 for all mankind" jeans ($350!!) and they didnt even last the whole season! Holes EVERYWHERE, and they werent supposed to be "distressed". Worse money Ive ever spent

Robyn, you look a lot smaller than 12. But then I said the same thing to Michelle and she thought I was blind.

 

[rockin26]

Awwww thanks Nat! I'm a weird 12, I'm a 10 up the top and a 12 on the bottom and sometimes even a 14 depending on the brand, especially Bardot for some reason?? Needless to say I don't wear any of their jeans!

Michelle isn't much bigger than me, she definately got bigger boobs than me though!!!

 

[sambibabe]

Yeah, some stores have crazy sizing huh? I don't buy stuff from Country Road now, but when I was size 10 years ago, I had to buy size 6 dress there? I thought Michelle was like size 12 and yeah, that's when she said I must be blind

Haha.. thanks for the boobs info.

 

[simplyenchantin]

LOL you guys!! I'm actually quite probably a size 16 now coz I've lost about 5-6kg (probably more in fat coz I've been doing weights so it doesn't show on the scales), anyway all my clothes fit differently now and my boobs are rapidly shrinking, the only jeans that still fit me are suffering the baggy ass syndrome Robyn mentioned haha! I feel *way* bigger than you though, Robyn. You look tiny to me, like size 10!

You're all crazy
