I like the colors and all....but I dont see the big deal over the formula. Im sorry...but these are lustres to me. if not a little less pigmented. I have to swipe these things a lot to get them to show. They are no mix between an amplified and a lustre....no no no, they apply like lustres on me. Im sorry but that kindaaaa pisses me off. They are still pretty though, and I will still stroke them every night

Yayyyyyyyy

I knew you would like em!
We should consult with one another on every collection that comes out

 

[CantAffordMAC]

We should! We wont even have to....we already know we r getting the same things hahaha

Ravishing, Fanfare and speak louder just arrived and i am thrilled!
All look fantastic, feel fantastic, and are pretty hard to budge!
so happy these arent LE. definitely going to get more!!

 

[georgi]

oh and ravishing is amazing
if you like missy slimshine but wish it lasted a bit longer, THIS is the one for you! stunning!

You know, after really thinking about it, I am really starting to believe these have a bit more lustre than amp cream in them. They are def better than a glaze or lustre, but darnit they are not replacing amplified creams as my favorite.

Blankety and up note (le) are still my favs and are both amplified creams!

 

[Winthrop44]

^^ Long live Blankety! I'm a fan of Up-Note as well. Hopefully they'll expand the colors of the Cremesheens, but really I think I prefer the Amp formula.

 

[hawaii02]

Those of you ladies who are my coloring (NW 20) do you prefer DNude to what has been out?

Yep! I love Up-Note & Blankety too

Speed Dial is very pretty!

 

[MaryJane]

These lipsticks are nice but haven't blown me away. I find them to be a little drying.

I did find a nude lip combo that I love. Cremola liner, creme de nude, and flash of flesh gloss on top. I bet FOF would work with modesty too.

 

[Sanayhs]

I don't have Up Note, but... Blankety yes! And Impassioned! and Melrose Mood! And So Scarlet! And Chatterbox! and more!!! I LOVE MY AMPLIFIED CREAMS!!

 

[Miss QQ]

These are nice! I saw them today! I didn't have a lot of time so I only tried creme d'nude on my lips but it didn't look good on me. I swatched some of them and have put them on the swatch thread. I like fanfare and will go back to try it on my lips. Speed dial is a pretty pink!

I forgot about the nail lacquer as it wasn't out on display too and also forgot to look at Ravishing.

I'm new to the forum (and glad I found it :])... Anyway, today I discovered and bought Creme d' Nude lipstick almost immediately because it was the non-matte and less-drying version of Myth I have been hoping for!!! However, the sales associate said that this color is limted edition and therefore tried to convince me to buy two since she said they only had like 3 left... So is this really a permanent color? Because I'm in LOVE :] And don't want to get heartbroken :[ lol

thats kinda odd of her, its a permanent collection (and i assume that all the colours in it are permanent too)
Reading through the forums there seems to be alot of really wrong info being given out by MAs lately...

 

[capmorlovesmac]

Oh no. This Collection is delayed here in my towm. So another month to wait

 

[Miss QQ]

Aww... I hate it when this happens. On the positive note, you have more time to save money for them!

Yeah thats true

. On the website there is no limited editon triangle so I was not planning to buy any of those lipsticks but I am curious about the nail polish

 

[MzzRach]

These are so, so beautiful. I know they are perm, but I caved and bought 2 because, I am so weak. And the formula is to die for.

I ended up with Fanfare and Dare You.

Dare You (on me, NW20) is like a slightly browner version of Dubonnet.

Dubonnet on top, Dare You on bottom:

the nail polish is pretty, but it streaks and you need to put on 3 layers for it to look even and opaque

Aww no. I hate polishes that need so many layers because it takes so long for them to dry. I don't have the patience for sitting an hour on my couch and wait and to be careful not to move so the polish gets no marks.
It already took me way to much trials to find a perfect dark burgundy (Chanel - madness

) that needs only one layer. Thank you for warning me!
