So after successfully sitting out on Marilyn and Glamourdaze, I'm back on Specktra, and excited for this collection. I decided to try to sit out the MBs and MSFs, but let's see how successful I am with that lol. I haven't touched Light Year or Saturn and I used Supernova all of 5 times (all from HC collection).

The only thing I want for sure from this collection is a tinted lip balm. Those sound glorious!! However, if they are anything like the Suntints from Hey Sailor, I will gladly not get them. I hated those

They were sheer, not very moisturizing and left a horrible taste in my mouth. Did anyone else feel this way, or did I get a bad batch. I have all three shades with B/Us because I was sure that I would love and use these up , but I have only ever used one. And it sucked.

nope. i got the au rose one and i dont like it. i dries my lips in an awful way. crack pieces would fall off, awful. so i hate it. the color is pretty, i love it actually but not worth the money and putting on lips. i tried to returned but i was too late.

Oh, well I usually buy from Macy's or Bloomingdale's. They don't seem to really mind. Forgot abt the MAC store's policies.

and yes the ones from by sailor suck I didn't listen to temptalias review that they weren't good or moisturizing and got Au Rose and wore it once... got it from the Mac store n I couldn't return it either

Probably getting the msf's and mb's. Hot chocolate and Warm companion sound interesting too.

I'm usually all over the neutral/nude collections that come out (Naturally was a big haul for me) especially the lipsticks but this one....I'm considering, but I don't think there will be a lot I get.

Pure & Tender – Plumy creamy nude
Slightly Nude – Nudey coral with subtle pink pearlized pigments
Stay Warm! – Creamy light pink

Frost at Midnight – Deep blue-grey base with purple veining
Winter Pursuit – Copper base with grey veining

Black Ice – Rich black *
Mountain Air – Vibrant teal *
Night Trail – Deep navy blue *
Snow Shadow – Purple violet

Porcelain Pink – Soft pinky coral with gold veining °
Stereo Rose – Coral with golden-bronze shimmering nuances °


OK that's a little bigger than I thought. LOL.....
