MAC - Dare To Wear Discussion

[Fiberluver]

Her Greyness:

Thanks!

I don't have Omega but another brown will do.

I wanted to do a colorful eye but I have an idea up my sleeve!

I did pick up the Red Brick and I am going to play around with that today.

Thanks again and I hope you are well!

Nat

LAME!!! I literally read this like... 5 minutes after ordering crazy cool. I'd been deliberating for ages over whether to buy this or beautiful iris!! I guess I can get BI at any time. Got a tad excited cos we don't really get a lot of LE veluxe pearl shadows

HerGreyness:

I also hope you are well. You are in my thoughts.

Zingy looked exactly the same as Electric Eel on my arm, so I skipped that. I actually forgot all about Crazy Cool, so I didn't compare it to Beautiful Iris. Glad to hear that I didn't miss out on anything.

I'd much rather get the perm colors in pans.

I ended up with Sassy Grass, Going Bananas and Bold & Brash. The gloss is lovely, I hope they make more of these in the future.

Thanks for the info, I don't have electric eel I think I'll get Zingy! (and I love mattes)

I wonder how it compares to Jewel Blue (VX) though, can someone help me on that one pls?

 

[Face2Mac]

I just received my package.
Sassy Grass, Straw Harvest (old), Shock-a-holic and Prussian e/s. No lip products.

I must say that my Shock-a-holic is great, mine swatched like a matte2, I compared the prussian to it, it's soft and not hard to swatch

. I so see the comparison MUFE 92.

Small haul but worth it, now for my next fix, I need Gaga l/g.

I wore Ban This! and I felt like I was allready wearing a Venemous Villains Look. It partially stayed on all from eating sushi and drinking tea which any other lipgloss would have been completely gone by then.

I love it, it makes me feel sexy.

I also don't have Electric Eel. If i did have it, i hadn't bought Zingy. I swatches them side by side and it looked like Zingy was just a little bit brighter and so it won

going bananas is awesome! i need to find a good base for it though, sadly i have nothing yellow!

awww i know what you mean, a VP shadow is always exciting stuff! but perhaps you will love it more than i do? i do think it's pretty, just for me not as pretty as BI

sorry hun i just saw this! they're not too drying, but i always use a sugarscrub on my lips, then some balm and then blot the excess away and then apply the stain! and usually i'll apply a balm over the top of it

so go for it!1 they are very cheap!

Its funny because when I swatched them side by side I got the opposite- EE was brighter on me than zingy

That's strange

I asked today about this collection again from a different MA and she had never heard about Dare to Wear either. I'm having a really bad feeling we won't get this here at all.

I've seen Makeup For Ever on a PETA "Don't Test" list, so I'm assuming they're okay.

It is odd! I really might need a CP if a miracle doesn't happen.

They are not there unfortunately (I just checked), and they have refused to answer to that matter so that is also not very good sign.

I know this question was not addressed to me, but I happen to have the red Revlon lip stain (Cherry Tart?) and it is great.

As is true with any lip stain, it can be tricky to get the color spread evenly, and it *is* drying when worn on its own.
A bit of gloss or balm on top helps with the dryness, though.
And I like to apply the color to my lips, then immediately spread/sheer it out with a water-dampened cosmetic sponge.
I love to wear this stain under red lipstick; it helps prevent that ring-around-the-mouth effect as the lipstick wears off.
Back to Dare To Wear: What does everyone think of "Ban This!"?
I've heard that it's like Violetta lipstick in gloss form, and that makes my mouth water.

I love Ban This! It really is pretty. I have not worn it with Violetta yet but that my just be my lip for the evening!

It does look great with Go For It!

I got the darkest one, a deep red called Midnight and I love it. Its long wearing and i used it with the lip balm they give you to hydrate; BUT they really don't give you alot of product. I used it about 3 times and its almost empty.
