I ask myself too. Knitting will tire my hands and eyes. Baking will make me fat because I love cakes and sweet treats. Makeup rocks my world!

I'm not sure about baking, but I love to knit and let me tell you: You can spend a LOT of money on yarn.

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

My list has grown, darn it. I want all glosses now (I thought forsure I could cut a couple out, but they help to fill holes I have in my collection!)

I now also want basically all the shadows. I already have femme fi but I think I may get them all except for the black/purpley glittery one. So not sure about that.

Lippies though are down to two MUST HAVES, then "we'll see" on the rest.

I've decided I'm only getting 2 msfs. Hannah cannot afford to get all 3, that'll come to over $100 alone! So I'm thinking forsurely blonde (as I assume that'll be the first to sell out?) and redhead. yes yes.

brushes are just going to have to wait. Priority is: shadows, then glossess, msfs then lippies.

I freaking LOVED waking up, having the site still avail and seeing all this talk and swatches. *sigh* I'll miss you all when the site is down!

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

Thanks for the swatches Erine!! You're the best!!

Does Soft Wave look anything like Naked Frost? I saw a swatch somewhere where the two of that looked a little alike, but it's much darker on you!

Yay. Specktra is back. And, I'm still giddy about the BBR collection.

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

Wow...I for one am in love with all the lippies!!! And just about all the glosses..yikes

Thanks for your time for the beautiful pics & swatches Erine!

Happy New Year everybody!!! After those swatches...I'll be meeting all of ya on the street corner

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

I'm so pumped to get this over with in a week! We'll get to see it all in person, all its glory and decide for ourselves right then and there.

My list keeps changing, but I know it'll continue to until I see it all in person!

I CANNOT WAIT!

HAPPY New Year!!!

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

YAY!!! So glad we're back!!!!

All caught up with the swatches & this thread, my list maybe got a little shorter, but only by one or two things. I feel like I can skip all the lippies, I don't think any of them strike me as unique since I have so many already. I've put redhead & blonde msf's back on my list, I'm still skipping Brunette(for now.) For the shadows I'll get Flip, Henna & 100 Strokes. And last but certainly not least the 226 & 214 are my must haves.
Thanks for the great swatches Erin!
Happy New Year Everyone!!!

brunette.

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.

top knot is a blue purple version of shadowy lady, and the same finish too. if you know how to work with velvets, go for it-its gorgeous!!! if you can't work velvets, then i'm sorry.

redhead is more peachy-tan, blonde is pink, brunette is bronzey.

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.

EA and flip are similar except for the texture. flip is so much smoother and creamier.

i just compared henna to warm suede and they are almost identical. WS is a hair more gold, henna is a hair more olive (and i mean a hair). so, if you wanted a free-floating version of warm suede, get henna. i know i do!!!

live & dye is to "dye" for. i'm stockpiling this baby!
