I myself have the blue shu uemura lipstick. It's very pretty and best of all, the lipstick isn't at all drying or smothering: it's silky and moisture-full. The blue's probably what's best described as a cobalt blue. I wear mine as only a tint, since the color's still too warm for my skin if I layer it on I look strange. And granted, anyone in blue lipstick looks a bit odd, but I *really* look odd in warm colors.
I'll see if I can't get some pictures taken today.
And as for back ON TOPIC....yeah, I've decided to get Blast o' Blue. I'll just put it on as a sheer tint instead of layering. It does make me a bit sad: I want a blue lipstick I can layer, dammit! And since Blueberry Fizz seems to be sheer...hell, maybe I'll just start making my own blue lipsticks/lipglosses again.

Off topic-
Actually, she wasn't attacking you in her post. She was just voicing her opinion.
Before MAC made it a point to care for it's customer's, it wasn't a pretty image y'all. Imagine MA's prancing around, doing whatever they wanted, doing their makeup in a "FuckTheCustomer" mentality. Numerous of customer complaints were coming in.

In which case I don't understand at all why you'd create an argument over something you know to be true.  No? You sure seem to be getting upset about someone having the view that anything could possibly be better than MAC! Last time I checked, I was entitled to an opinion. My opinion is that Ben Nye is generally better quality than MAC. You are, of course, entitled to disagree with me, but it does not give you the right to attack me for my opinion, regardless of whether you work for MAC and feel extreme loyalty towards them. That's just not cool. Point 1 - if you care to look back you'll see that YOU started the argument by disagreeing with me when I had merely made a perfectly legitimate comment about the quality of Ben Nye. YOUR post (#132) was the first aggressive post on the subject. Point 2 - This is *still* a C-Shock thread and your comment here is what was uncalled for, moreso since we have been asked to stick to the topic by a mod. I had already moved on from this in accordance with the mod request and it's *you* that's kicking it off again, (ironically, at the same time as attempting to lecture me! 
I, personally, am looking forward to seeing C-Shock. I hope it lives up to my expectations because I can count on the fingers of one hand the number of MAC products I have bought this year. Nearly everything so far has been the same, or very similar, to previous products so I am very glad to see new, vibrant colours. |

I think some people will be able to pull it off and some won't, just like some people can pull off Cyber and some people don't. Plus, it's a matter of whether the individual likes how it looks on them or not.

Quoting the fantasmagoric Tokyosaurus on LJ:
"blue lipstick + orange lipstick/gloss = brown.
blue lipstick + red lipstick/gloss = red-violet
(that perfect violet with a nice blue undertone)
more fun to mix.
shock value of pulling out a blue lipstick from your bag.
makeups artists friend for a photoshoot..."

I'm not feeling it either. I'll probably get a few things just to have more crazy colors for fashion shows and things but not for me personally to wear, just for work.
Yellow shadow looks ridiculous on me as would blue lipstick, I'd look dead. But hey, my hats off to those that can pull it off.

I'm with you. I'll probably pick up the Wondergrass e/s just because I love green so much. Not sure that I'll ever really wear it but I'll give it a shot.
