Oh shoot...I just thought of something. How is Pincurl compared to Shroom? Or am I wayyyy off.

Hi to everyone..staying up late to get my Spektra fix

Note to self: 15 pages is too much to catch up on...

I think I've revised my list-Henna e/s for sure, 100 Strokes
I do know Mythology was not a fav, at my first MAC makeover, so that's getting skipped.

All the lipsticks/lg look great-have to see with those!

This collection will be awesome! I added one more lipglass to my list and I can imagine to end up with all three MSFs

Re: MAC - Brunette Blonde Redhead Collection Discussion (Hair was WN)

Someone needs to shoot me.
I want:

-Soft Wave lipglass (maybe, I hardly touch Major Minor lipglass)
-100 Strokes eyeshadow (maybe, I'm happy enough with Sketch)
-French Cuff eyeshadow (maybe, if it's nice enough of a texture, despite being a lustre, I hardly use pinks though, so probably will skip this.)
-Flip eyeshadow (maybe, I'll see how similar it is to Evening Aura, even if it is a nicer texture, I have no need for two.)

Definites
-Brunette MSF
-Blonde MSF
-Redhead MSF
-Live and Dye lipglass
-Peroxide lipglass

So much I want! At least a lot are maybes that I can probably still eliminate. The lipsticks don't really do anything for me. I probably won't get any of the lippies. B-babe doesn't look all that special now, I was imagining a light frosty pink, a truer light frosty pink than Eden Rocks, not a midtone frosty pink. I like Blow Dry.. but I hate lustres, not getting.

So far 5 are definite though.

Re: MAC - Brunette Blonde Redhead Collection Discussion (Hair was WN)

I am in love with the lippies!! Thank you so much Erine for the swatches.

Here is my list so far:

Strawberry blonde
Red Devil
B-Babe
All's fair

Redhead and Blonde MSF

I do like the look of French Cuff, although I'll have to swatch it next to Mythology, which I already have. It looks like FC could look so nice with Deep Shade (or Contrast which I'll probably get instead). The other shadows I'll probably skip. They look gorgeous, but I have sooo many e/s I have hardly touched so it doesn't make sense to buy even more.

Oh, and I am so glad I decided to save my christmas gift card for this collection!!

Re: MAC - Brunette Blonde Redhead Collection Discussion (Hair was WN)

Girls, I still could see all swatches!!

I woke up at 8 AM here and I am glad specktra still works

Thank you Erin one more time!

Re: MAC - Brunette Blonde Redhead Collection Discussion (Hair was WN)

Thanks for the swatches. I love all the e/s and at the moment only own 5 so I can justify getting them. Too bad I don't think I can afford them all right after Christmas. I do have a $50 gc so I can get at least 3 of them. For sure Henna and 100 Strokes and maybe an MSF. What color MSF for an NC40?

 

[Odelle]

Re: MAC - Brunette Blonde Redhead Collection Discussion (Hair was WN)

Yay more swatches! I'm glad for the videos, too.

I think I'll be buying all the lip products, and all of the e/s except Deep Shade, Knight, and Top Knot. I'm going to buy Deep Truth and Divine Knight instead, since I don't have a lot of MAC m/u yet.

I'm not really lemming the MSFs, they're kind of pricey now. I'd rather get some regular blushes since I don't have much cheek color yet.

Re: MAC - Brunette Blonde Redhead Collection Discussion (Hair was WN)

Thanks to Erine for the swatches and Brooke for the videos!

I have to really try not to overdo it for this collection (in about 2 months I'll start a full-time unpaid internship, eek), but here's my list so far:

Definites:
226 brush!!
Marquise d' l/s
Henna e/s (though it looks similar to the Warm Suede e/s from this year's holiday warm eyes palette...but it's too pretty to pass up!)
100 Strokes e/s (I love Sketch so this sounds great for me!)

Maybes:
Blonde msf (it looks gorgeous, but CDN$33.50? ouch.)
Redhead msf (same reason as above)
Knight e/s (I don't have Knight Divine and I need a true grey!)

Also, I wish Blow Dry wasn't a frost. It looks really pretty but frost l/s aren't really my thing

I know I'm going to be so tempted by the rest but I have to try to resist!!

Re: MAC - Brunette Blonde Redhead Collection Discussion (Hair was WN)

Thank you so much Erin and BunnyBunnyBunny!

I need some coffee and some time to think to work on my financial plan before I will have my list. Oh my!

Yay Susanne.. we've seen the swatches!

Re: MAC - Brunette Blonde Redhead Collection Discussion (Hair was WN)

Thank you Erine for the swatches.
I'm in big trouble,this collection will empty my wallet.I was planning to skip lipsticks but All's Fair looks pretty.Seems like 100 Strokes and Top Knot are the winners.I'm disappointed in Henna.I was hoping it'd be more gold.I guess I have to wait and see.
Erine what do you think about Top Knot? It looks so pretty in the picture but I hope it's not a mess like Beauty Marked.

Is the Redhead MSF peachy or pinkish? I'm gonna skip it if it's pinkish.

Re: MAC - Brunette Blonde Redhead Collection Discussion (Hair was WN)

I checked this thread before I knocked off from work, travelled back home and

. And I have so much to catch up.

e/s:
I want Knight.
I really like Flip but I have Evening Aura. I swatched EA on the back of my hand and compared. EA looks more orange on me, could be due to my skin tone.

if I should get it. Are they really similar?
I like French Cuff too but I have Expensive Pink. Are they similar? EP looks more orange. I may pass.
Henna looks like a Warm Suede but less green. I think I may pass.

l/g: Live & Dye looks gorgeous. I want it, and Peroxide, Strawberry Blonde, and Red Devil. Must cut down.

l/s: Maybe just B-Babe or nothing.

msf: All 3 look gorgeous.

I love that I'm finallllllly at a point that I have so many e/s that I really DONT need every new color Mac comes out with! haha

Re: MAC - Brunette Blonde Redhead Collection Discussion (Hair was WN)

Damn! This collection will break my wallet! I'm already at $300 here for everything I want! I thought I wasn't going to like anything, but from Erine's swatches, I'm in big trouble!

I'm already excited about BBR coming out. I'd HATE to even think how I'll be like once Hello Kitty comes out!

Damn you MAC. Just shoot me now why don't you??? You know that the economy is down . . .yet you still temp us MAC-addicts with drool-worthy collections and make us go bankrupt!! Why or why couldn't I have picked another hobby like knitting or baking instead of makeup!!!

I need to see if I can win the lottery to have enough money for BBR and Hello Kitty combined!! Anybody wanna donate some scratch tickets or lotto???? Hey, if I win, I'll share the pot with you!

 

[Susanne]

Re: MAC - Brunette Blonde Redhead Collection Discussion (Hair was WN)

Re: MAC - Brunette Blonde Redhead Collection Discussion (Hair was WN)

If I get my definites, I will spend only around $112 + tax = $121. 94 , which I don't mind too much.

If I get everything I want.. it adds up to $168 + tax = $181.86.
UGH. way too much. I don't want to cross $150.
