MAC - Cult of Cherry Discussion

[darkishstar]

I LOVE LIQUER. LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE.
It's a tad redder than Major Minor and not as gold.

Anyways.
Used Tempting just now, just to try it out.
LOVE this quad. I am SO in love.
Sharp in inner half of lid. Tempting on outer half. Then pulled up above the crease and above Sharp as well. Then Dark Edge on lower lash line and outer v, above Tempting, extended to about half way above Sharp. Then Next to Nothing to highlight. Wow, sultry! Didn't know that chartreuse could be sultry! So glad that I bought Spiced Chocolate AND Tempting now, these 2 quads are EASY to use!

And used Light Flush on cheeks.. and Liqueur on the lips. Fantastics!

I'll put up pictures of this look next week as well.

After looking at Cherry Blossom lipglass again, I realize it looks exactly like Early Bloomer l/g from a collection I cant remember. They're pretty much the same.

It's very pretty, don't get me wrong, but its nothing very special compared to the other beautiful lippies in this collection!

aw.. thank you both! you two are sweet.

Darkishstar, Bing is a lovely color, it's very "fall" like.

It's just so hard to blend. lol... I used my finger and it looked like I bled to death. hahahahah

I don't know if it helps to kill any lemmings, but this FOTD is gorgeous and she has used dupes for the shadows in the Tempting quad:

*whisper* Go and get Tempting Quad! *whisper* I have been thinking all the time that this quad would really suit you

I am still undecided about the blushes - I will just pick up ONE (after taking a look in my blush box yesterday evening), but I guess I must see them in real which one I will pick up though

I usually have five fav collections per year:
This year's are /will be Heatherette, Cool Heat, Cult of Cherry, Manish Arora and Red She Said. The last two because of the packaging.

Definitely!

This quad is the one I am looking most forward to...

I love to try Sharp with pigment Chartreuse and Shadestick Lucky Jade... And I bought the perfect green earrings for this quad yeasterday

A look with Tempting Quad and l/s Russian Red and l/g Cult of Cherry must be soo gorgeous... LOL, you already know my CoC FOTD now...

(with the new earrings)

You make me want Bing! Wow!!!! Ahhhh, I need to stop wanting stuff! I already ordered Kirsch and now I wonder if I want Bing too! What is your skintone btw? I'm NC30 and wonder if it would work on me, without looking like death!

 

[darkishstar]

Ooops. Double post.

 

[bebs]

ok.. well I totally thought that this collection wasn't going to blow me out of the water, I went in on thursday and ran to my pigments getting all 7 of them and making my credit card cry because then I looked at the CoC and oh my god, I fell in love with the blushes and sadly only had 5 minutes in the mac store so I didn't have time for my lippies

went back earlier today and got a few lippies and boy oh boy am I loving the dark lips its wonderful looking

at the end of two days of hauling I have ended up with:

all 7 overrich pigments
both coc blushes
rich and ripe lipglass
cult of cherry lipglass
rapturous and kirsch mattnes
plum soft lipliner
b2m for so scarlet
and thinking about going back for liqueur
and a tender tone in deep sigh (I'm just starting to hop onto the idea of these things)

I was thinking I have smoke and diamonds on hold at the store, maybe buying this lipglass instead since its so beautiful

if you had to pick one or the other which would you pick?

I'm an NC 35 but I'm currently I'm an NC 40.

Don't be scared hahaha... There were a lot of MAs today wearing dark lips and I believe they were the same, if not lighter skin color on you and they pulled it off.

You should try it, it's a daring look but it never hurts to try!

 

[pat]

BTW, Krasevayadancer can you pretty please do a full face with Chock-ful on?!

Or any of you who bought it?

I think I want Chock-ful now. ahahahaha

 

[Heiaken]

We shoud have CoC here soon too, I'm soo excited! I though firts that the palettes would be my weak point and the thing that I really wanted but now I'm starting to love the lippies more. I deffo have to get a few of the darker colour and a few glosses too and maybe one (or too quads).

 

[BunnyBunnyBunny]

I did so many facecharts! I wish I could scan them and show you guys. =(

 

[exoticarbcqen]

wow, I didnt realize CoC was going to be this popular. I walked into my free standing store, and the displays were all empty except for 2 lipsticks and one of the palettes, I thought they were just moved around the store by the customers...NO!!!! they SOLD OUT!!!! their was no room to walk in that store + so many people there for CoC makeovers....hmmm, IMO dark lipstick in 98 degree weather just dosent look right. I always thought dark colors were for fall :/

I had already purchased both blushes and all 3 palettes online a few days ago, sooo glad.
