Issued e/s (d/c'd) - thoughts?

[BlahWah]

Is this worth getting? I just got the Free To Be quad and I'm still considering the Take Wing quad, both of which have some sort of grey e/s in it. I know they're different shades of grey, but how many greys can a NC35 Chinese girl have? There aren't many reviews on MUA, so I thought I'd pester knowledgeable Specktrettes.

Also, what finish is it in? From the descriptions it seems to be a satin. TIA!

Issue is a satin formula and is more of a true gray. Personally, I love it. "Restless" in the Take Wing quad is much more mauve, and I really consider "Free to Be" in the Free to Be quad as more of a blue, than a gray. Here are some comparison pics. Sorry about the quality. It's early. NEED MORE COFFEE!

Hope this helps...

L to R: Restless, Issue, Free to Be

Thanks MAC_Whore for a reply *with* pics! Do you think it would translate well on an NC35? I'm afraid of it washing me out, making me look sick or clashing with my skintone. Also what do you usually wear it with?

As you can see, I've never owned a grey e/s before. =P

I'm not sure about the NC35. Issue is a pretty true gray with a bit of a blue undertone and it is pretty light. It could run the risk of looking a bit chalky. I am a not so tan NW25. I wear it on the lid with something like Scene or Shale in the crease, and Nehru or Plumage or Blu-Noir in the outer V. I hope that helped, hon
