Hehe awee Moxy isn't feeling the pigment love! Thats okay, neither do I really... I own like 95 eyeshadows but only 15 or so pigments, and most of them are highlight colors, I like using pigments for highlight colors for my eyes and for my face.

I think I found the perfect eye combo to go with Blonde MSF; Pincurl and Knight on lid, Nehru on crease and Chill as a highlight

True! Eye shadows would be my third fave from Mac.

Not all brushes

I just bought the 129 and it's really scratchy and harsh on my face..

My favourite MAC products: paints, shade sticks, brushes, fluidlines, lightscapade (yes, that earns its own place). I also have a soft spot for paint pots, cremestick liners and some eyeshadows (especially older ones, generally!).

I have a 129SH and it's beeeeeaaaautiful. I find the 224 to be scratchy and gross on my eye, but the couture version is sooooo good.

My favorite MAC products are the Lipglasses and Dazzleglasses. I'm a lipglass whore basically. And I love MSFs and the eyeshadows as well.

That's great! I would love to have a friend who shares my MAC addiction... My friends either think I'm crazy or they laugh at me for spending so much money and time at MAC, which they think is a silly thing to do... This is frustrating for me, because I can't find nobody to talk about MAC, and if I do it's obviously not a very exciting conversation because it only goes one way.

Although it looks great over Dame too, as seen from one of the FOTDs some time ago.

I'm still trying to figure out how to make Tippy work, it does not make my cheeks pop like the other blushes do...

Maybe I should try layering it over Plum Foolery, because that's what I wore to my MAC counter that day when I tried on Tippy, and the outcome was gorgeous dramatic cheeks which I loved.



Talking about fave MAC products, I think the lipsticks own everything else.

If the blush isn't doing it for you, take it back? It's just a lot of money to be out for something that doesn't satisfy you. And some lipsticks that are similarly priced (at least in Canada) that I love even more than MAC's are Make Up For Ever's. I have a couple of their cream formula ones, and YUM. The formula is amazing.

I wonder how much MUFE's lippies cost here. I should check them out some time.

What happens when I take the blush back? I've never brought back any items before. Would be nice if I could exchange it for F&G instead.

I don't have the receipt though, would that matter?

It'll be trickier if you don't have the receipt/box, but you can see if they'll let you anyway? And if they will accept a return, you could totally just get F&G instead, provided they have it in stock.

I am not a huge pigment fan either. I mainly just get pigment samples because they are cheaper. I have NEVER gone through a whole jar of pigment. My favorite MAC products are MSFs, eye shadows, and dazzleglasses in that order.

But it applies blush beautifully so I don't regret it

Yes, it's really scratchy and I use mine just if my other Brushes are dirty. But you are right, it applies blush beautifully.

 

[Heiaken]

I thin my every other post here has been declaring my love for Pincurl but I just can't help it. I don't think there is any other eyeshadow like it

I like it even more than Parrot *gasp* I love it so much that I ordered a back up of it and I never do that with e/s. Before this CoC l/g and Rapturous mattene have been my only back ups.

I have the box alright, I hoard these special packaging stuff as well as the one Chanel box that I have.

I'm wearing Tippy now, layered over Plum Foolery. And as predicted, it looks MUCH better like this. What a weird blusher. I don't mind keeping it though, since I don't like Plum Foolery on its own either, but the 2 can totally complement each other.

Seriously? Really. Right? I know.

I finally received my heirlooms (holiday 07 collection) set brushes (courtesy of my lovely bf whose shipping is the slowest in the world) and one of them was a 129SE. Omg it's sooooo soft!! Seriously. So soft it's unbelivable. And I'm fussy about my brushes

So I'm glad it's not harsh like the normal 129 is said to be.
