I've been using the 242 for years, so I guess I'll give the 239 a try. My MA recently recommended the 109, so that one is in the cart too. This sale is awesome for loading up on brushes. Too bad the mysterious 130 or 131 isn't available.

242 & 252 are my loves, since we are sharing brush love

I am getting the #134, 150 & 168. I was going to get a 242 back-up. I have had that brush for at least 8 years but I want to get the high ticket items.

I have a huge list of things I want but Ill have to cut down... I usually get my brushes during the holidays when they have amazing brush sets (this past year they even had it 25% off after the holidays!) so ill pass on that... I just got 30 pigment samples so no pigments... sooo im probably going to focus on e/s and blush refills, 15 e/s palettes, and fix+

I just hope they wont sell out on the ones I want... do you guys know if it starts 12:00 am est? im sure few hours would make a difference...

- Electric Eel pan- a must imo, fairly matte. can be a bit tricky to work with, but def. worth it
- Freshwater pan- very pretty, but if you're looking to cut back i would pick 1 blue. this goes ona bit smoother than EE, imo
- Club pan- very pretty and unique, very dark
- Satellite Dreams pan - this is a must for purple lovers like myself. it's gorgeous
- Nocturnelle pan -this is nothing like contrast. this is a dark (but not too dark) smokey plum colour. drooool
- Passionate pan - it will def. make your eyes pop!

- Deep Truth pan - deep truth is pure sexy time. if you have amber lights it looks fantastic with it
- Parfait Amour pan - this is a bit brighter and bluer than sat. dreams. i prefer satellite dreams (i think it has better payoff) but both colours are lovely
- Bitter pan - not for the faint of heart. very bright acid green. i know some girls find it chalky
- Stars 'n Rockets pan - my new love. it's a pinkier purple with a blue duochrome. very very unique. itll be really pretty on your blue eyes
- Humid pan- this is a favourite of many. rich saturated dark green. looks great as a liner. i think its the nicest mac green
- Juxt pan - i loath this colour.
- Swimming pan - it's nice, but for some reason i never use it....



that is my input!

I'm NC35 and I LOVE refined golden bronzer. It's the best MAC bronzer for us. Trust.

This is my fear. I have ton of stuff in my cart, a lot that I don't "need" but many that I really really want. I will be sooo bummed if my many of my items sell out before the sale. The ones that I'm most afraid of are the Style Warriors. Bright Future was the first to go. BAH!!!

Does anyone know what are some nice eyeshadows to get for an overall lid colour? As well as a good high light colour that's not too shimmery/frosty for NC25-30? Thanks!

I love All That Glitters. I use it every single day when I have work or school

. You could also try jest/naked lunch. IMO they're pretty much the same except Naked Lunch doesn't have the pink/peach that Jest has.

I'm NC35 and I use shroom, but in the winter when I'm NC30 I use shroom too

. It's not too shimmery and subtle .

some lid colors i like are All That Glitters, Ricepaper, & Woodwinked. For highlight, I like Vanilla (more matte) or Creme de Miel (light shimmer, but not frosty)

Thank you both, I'll definitely keep those shadow choices in mind!

I'm thinking of branching out a teeeeeny tiny bit and buying one bright/colour in my haul. I'm a neutral girl all the way and don't envision myself ever wearing brights, but since it's summer I'm in the mood for something with some colour to put under my eye, a little in the crease, etc. for some interest.

Any recs? Nothing TOO neon bright but something a little more subtle would be awesome. Something that would go well with my neutrals would be great (I have a lot of goldish/plummy browns like Mulch, Saddle, Sable, Woodwinked, etc.) I'm looking at Steamy because it doesn't look too bright...what do you think? I'm about NC20 with green eyes.

So far my haul is:

Dazzlelight
Tempting
Antiqued
Cranberry
MSFN Medium

Steamy is a gooooorgeous color. It's on the darker side of teal, but it definitely has some color. I'd totally suggest it.

My own cart is pushing $300 again. C'mon, sale!

Okay ladies an gents,
I have to cross things of my F&F list STAT! So if someone could tell me how close Parfait Amour and Violet pigment are to one another and whether or not I need both it would be so greatly appreciated.

Also how close is Gorgeous Gold to Old Gold pigment? I have a feeling that GG + Goldmine = Old Gold.

Any thoughts?

TIA!!!!!!!
