MAC Alluring Aquatic Collection (May 22, 2014)

[AnnieZM]

The closest I have to Enchanted One is Givenchy Beige Plume (but it's a tiny bit pinker).
I don't have Blush Teddy though, so can't compare.

My Siren Song is already half gone.. I don't usually say this but YAY for backups.

No more Mystical at my local store why haven't I bought a back up in Dublin? Do you guys know any good dupes for it?

 

[Mayanas]

Definitely my favourite packaging from mac EVER! I use aphrodites shell everyday as a bronzer, it will be a sad day when I run out, I also love enchanted one lipstick, so glad I got a backup as it has become one of my daily colours I reach for :rasta:

Aphrodites shell appears to be still available on macys! I agree- I use it everyday too and am in love with it. I got 2 for sure

AS is amazing I LOVE IT. I have BU =)

I've heard posh tone from mac is a great dupe it's not matte but it's very similar.

I love the packaging so much that I bought both brozers in the conpact. And I never wear brozer lol.

Looooved the packaging but the colour story was too muted/murky for my tastes. If it was more pastel/watery I would have been all over it like white on rice! In hindsight I kind of wish I'd bought one of the EDSF Bronzers though haha. Any suggestions as to which one would be better on a pale neutral skintone?

Aphrodites shell, definitely.

Aphrodites shell, definitely.  

Thank you! I might stalk eBay and see what I can find

 

[IdreamofMAC]

Aphrodites shell, definitely.  

I also vote for Aphrodite's shell. I'm not pale, but I'm light skin tonned with neutral undertones and it looks so beautiful on me. It works more like a blush than a brozer on me and that is why I love it so much.

I second this. My hopes for the bushes were higher than what I expected from AS, but when I got the whole lot, but the bronzer became my favorite.

I just bought the bronzer in Golden from Nordies. Yaaay! I am excited about the packaging. I have AS and love it. Also have all the eyeshadows, which I got when it first came out. But then I forgot about the bronzers till just recently. Glad it was still available to order new.

My AS finally shipped yesterday, yes gawd, and it's AMAZING! I LOOOOOOOVVE IIITT!!!! SO natural, and SO blendable! The ED formula always seems to blur my skin, and this is no different. I really REALLY want a back up. At first I was like meh but you girls were just raving about it and ITS SO WORTH IT. I'm NC25-30 but it shows up one me quite fine. My only problem is quite superficial, the pattern gets "cracked" from use coz it's so soft but all ED formulas do that hehe GIRLS THROW ALL YOUR DOUBTS OUT THE WINDOW! I'm pretty sure it's still available at Macy's. GET IT!!!!

 

[Elmored22]

Love the nude lipstick that was included

Agreed!! AS is amazing. Definitely the standout in the collection.

Which one? Mystical?

 

[yakkoooew]

Oh and I didn't get Fathoms Deep. Sold out when I got to the Mac store. I am so hoping I can get at COO or ebay or something later. Did I mention I'm crazy for purples/blues? is there a good dupe for it?

Hmmm in my mind a good dupe might be a combo of Dior mono creme shadow in Hypnotique (a dark shimmery blackened purple), with Mac Mothbrown over it. I will have to try it one day and post back to you!!

Ita!! And to think I almost skipped because I read a not so great blogger review :/
