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

^^^ The only two definites on my list are Brunette MSF and Henna e/s. I'm still a newbie and don't own Sumptuous Olive so it's w/e for me. I think I may be able to live without the lippies for now since none of them are grabbing me or I have a lip product that looks just like it...

Also, as a dark skin tone (NW45) will Femme-Fi work as a highlight?

I was super excited when I got up this morning, and then even more elated when I saw the e-mail for the discount. I went off to work, and thought all day about the great stuff I was going to order and save money on, to boot! But, apparently that is not the case. I just sent them a little message letting 'em know how disappointed I was in the date-slip for this collection, and that I hope it wasn't intentional. Hopefully we'll get through to them!

Actually yes. I actually had a helluva list initially but I have narrowed it down to the Brunette and Redhead MSF, Chignon and What a Do l/s, Flip and French Cuff e/s and the 266 brush is a strong maybe. I'm so proud of myself. I am very happy. Please lawd help me stay strong on Thursday

not unless you want a super-duper white-ish garish highlight. if so, then yes, go for it.

i wouldn't do anything lighter than era on an nw45. and even then i use a light hand.



so, with that 25% off online, i think i'm gonna get one of the monogram sheerspark powders. i just want the compact, and its gorgeous!!! and since we haven't been able to get our employee discount on them yet, i think i might just buy it.

Sorry but I just had to post...so I just called another counter and they said I could bring in all my depotted shadows with no silver pan!! OMG this is freakin fantastic, I'll B2M for all the lippies and have more $$ for the msf's and everything else. This totally made my day so I had to share!
*runs to her room to collect containers and depot all night*

GAHHHH! I reallly need to stay away from these boards! I have major lemmings that I won't be able to satisfy

Erine, can you tell me if B-Babe l/s has any dupes? And if you had to choose between Snowscene l/g from Chill, and Live & Dye and Peroxide from BBR, which 1-2 would you choose? Are any of those l/g similar to past LE or perm l/g? (I hope so, so I can stop wanting them!)

Have you taken into consideration that the 214/smudger will be perm at stores? If you really truly want both, get 226 first since it is LE. Plus, there are known dupes of the 214 from Sephora, Smashbox, etc.

there is also one from japonesque and i know that right now there is a place that has them buy one get one 50% off. it's definitely going to be a hot brush since it's new for MAC. I seriously use my japonesque one every day. I also have a larger similar brush that i use every day.

PLEASE HELP!!! I have been here for 2-3 hours and I can't seem to get anywhere...I want to look at the official color story for BBR, do any of us know when all the "kinks" could possibly be worked out? I am seriously having Specktra withdraws!

Henna is off of your list? I just wish we could order already...

I know I'm a broken record but I wish my counter would let me use my 80+ empties to b2m for this.

AdlersMommy is lucky she shipped her empties to an MA, and they are letting her b2m that way. I want to do that. I hate when rules are different everywhere... or they make their own policies. I'm sorry y'all I'm whining too much about this collection. I know.

gahhhhhhhhh just when I talk myself out of the Blonde MSF I see more pics.


Well from reading all this (I wasnt able to post all evening
ssad.gif
) it appears that this FF kinda put out the fire of desire for BBR for most of us. I know I had a huge list this morning but its been literally cut in half

I think I just rather pick up some perm stuff and necessities with FF and call it a day. meh.

I do apologize my Specktra has been PMS'ing on me today and I cant search but I am wondering if Pincurl is anything similar to Crystal Avalanche?

My list has been drastically reduced too.... MAC not launching BBR today actually made me rethink all the stuff I was gonna buy while I quietly sobbed in my cubicle at work

I really wanted Henna but I hardly touch Sumptous Olive so what the hell was I thinking wanting Henna. That is how MAC gets me. Gets me all excited for a new collection and just buy buy buy...
not this year

Yeah my MA had me drop my empties off today because they wll be so busy on Thursday...and she is holding my items against them for me to pick up...I can pick out 9 e/s, l/g or l/s...so hopefully I will have my list firm by Thursday...

god i suck with lipsticks! i hardly wear them so i can't help you there. lipglosses are another story. i would go with L&D and peroxide and skip snowscene. L&D is just drop dead gorgeous. and peroxide is a pretty sheer almost-sugarrimmed-with-a-bit-more-pink-not-so-white. so that's what i would go with if i had to chose.

not at all. pincurl isn't white whatsoever, which CA most definately is. again, like i've said many times, pincurl=seedy pearl and vex having a baby!

fyi, the 217 is restocked...but do I really need another one? Yes.

I went to the Flatiron store today. My MA said if I was really interested in buying today, I could. But after swatching everything, I was a bit disappointed. Everything looked pretty dupeable. I liked the 226 brush, it'll look great next to my 224! The smudger brush looks like any ol' smudger. The face brush...eh, dunno what I would do with it even if I bought it

CAM wanted this! Maybe she can call and they'll add it to her order... or cancel and re-order..whatever.
