MAC - Colour Craft Discussion

Received 131 and 226 brush today.
They are both awesome.

I have 187 but not the 188 so i guess i can justify getting 131

pictures are on my blog.

I will wait till thursday for swatching the products on my skin and what works best. I am sure i will love smooth merge

okay... I've become totally totally overwhelmed by this collection. Help?

I'm an NC20 (MAYBE a 25 in the summer, but probably not even that dark). I already have Petticoat and Smooth Merge MSFs. As for blushes (in order of most to least used), I have Well Dressed, Spaced Out, Springsheen, and Secret Blush. I also have Moon River, but I've mostly just been using it as a highlight; it doesn't show up very pigmented on me. :/

I've ben eyeing Hand Finish and Daft Pink, but now I'm looking at Improvise and Fab-dab as well... and I'm REALLY drawn to Cheeky Bronze, but I guess I'm just not quite sure how to use a color like that on my pasty self? Same with Improvise...

I don't even want to think about the lip products right now.

This collection is just too huge!

i do love crease brushes and can always use more because i like to use a clean one each time (only wash my brushes once a week which is why i have up to 3 of some brushes!)

the 226 will be cheaper than the 131 as well... and i guess i could always look out for the 131 in the clearence bin at some point to maybe get cheaper.

Ok, for those who have seen the collection is Funky Fusion hot pink or coral?

Definitely more pink than coral! No, it is pink. Just pink

As a comparison: Crazy Haute is a bit lighter than Magnetique, Funky Fusion similar to Steal my Heart! Both Rose Romance.

HTH!

Eccentricity in pigment form dupes:
Blonde's Gold/Gold Mode
Vis-a-Violet
Chocolate Brown/Gold Stroke
Grape or Deep Purple

Susanne, thx. Scratching Funky Fusion off of list and maybe getting Red Devil from 6months ago BBR.

BEST HUSBAND IN THE WORLD! for this week at least

Woah! What a nice husband, no wonder that he made husband of the week

I hope I can b2m for Made with Love, currently I am really wanted everything that is orange. Will you pick up your stuff or will you order?

So I somehow forgot all about the 138 during the F&F sale and just fell in love with it in one of the Artists in Action vids on MAC's site...so I'm wondering, do I need the 131 or 138 more? I figure if I'm going to spend $40, I might as well spend the extra $12 if the brush is going to serve me better. Any thoughts? I know the 138 is slightly OT...

^ yep

me too! I could never have too many mineral blushes
