I don't think I'm feeling the MCQUEEN collection

One MAC MA looked to be about my shade (NC50) was wearing the Electro Sky Paint Pot and Nile e/s. It looked sooooo good on her.

I really want to see what Masque lipstick looks like on NC40-50 ...I wouldnt dare try it on at the Mac store.Besides that everything else was just blah.. Nothing I HAD to have.

I went to take another look at the McQueen collection this weekend. Ended up leaving with Electro Sky Paintpot, Nile e/s and Archtype l/s. I'm going to return/exchange the Nile e/s because I compared it to Fountainbleu and Bang on Blue eyeshadows. They're too similar to have all 3. Besides, today I used the Bang on Blue over the Electro Sky PP and it gave me the look I was trying to achieve. Sometimes when I hit the counters I don't stop to think about what I already have in the same color family. Not from the McQueen collection but I also picked up Antiquitease lipstick.

I purchased Black Karat Kohl Power and Archtype l/s , and I love them both. I think the collection was presented with "dramatics" but these are truly everyday wearable.

Unfortunately I'm not familiar with thrills. On me, the Antiquitease looks like a coppery brown with maybe just a teeny, teeny bit of red. It's pretty.

How similar is it to "O" l/s?

Well, I went to see the McQueen and Antiquitease collections yesterday. I was not excited about either of these, but I did buy Jealous and Black Karat Eye Kohls from MCQueen. They are gorgeous. Then I bought Antiquitease lipstick and Majestic Lipglass. I have Thrills and Thrills is supposed to be a Rosy Copper with Gold Pearl according to MAC. I think Thrills has more color than Antiquitease. Antiquitease is a Copper with red pearl.To me, it is a more of a nude lip especially paired with the Majestic Lipglass. I'm still looking at this one because I think I have a similar LE color called Love & Lust.

I don't think O is as coppery and brown as Antiquitease.

im not a woman of colour but the colours are really balnd and are just bases really...and the mcqueen branding looks really cheap and like a knock off to me im not sure why..seeing as we dont get half the collections in ireland anyway im not too bothered...

I love Masque lipstick worn with Cushy Cremestick Liner with Nice Buzz Plushglass over top. It is such a gorgeous colour combination against my NC50 skintone. I actually sold quite a few Masque lipsticks to the WoC that came to my store this past week as they realized that they can truly wear such a pale colour with the right lipliner.
