MAC - Dsquared2 Discussion

[Krasevayadancer]

Wow, I have missed you all so much. It is so hard to keep up with the blog, twitter, facebook, and Specktra. Have I missed anything naughty?!

Not going to lie, I went into my usual MAC store and they all said they were wondering where the heck I have been the couple of months. Fortunately, I did see some of my favorites backstage during fashion week.

Anywho, I went in and swatched the last 5 MAC collections (FW 09, Dazzleglass Creme, Style Black, HD, and of course, DSquared) Wowee, I am late to the party, but I am loving the new greasepaints. V is gorgeous, and doesn't move!

Got my D2 today

I am soooo happy - Nudie Rose is definitely more rose pink on my lips!

3N is a tad more yellow pink/peachy pink & NR is more red/rose/pink - but the shades are pretty close.

I LOVE Blood Red!!!!!! A sheer application

gives my lips this beautiful rosey red pink look & deeper a nice fuchsia pink red. I really, really like this color on me.

I really think it is a matter or how much time you want to spend. I could see myself using this with a little tinited mosturizer, mascara, and lipgloss for a five minute face. Hope this helps.

What complexion are you again I know you said it before. I think I am going to pick this up on tues.

oh I love the GPS!!!!! it looked get with the new quad tone grey loved it.

I caved and got Blood Red. It's different enough from London Life to warrant having, much pinker, and darker than Lustering, which I had but found was never as dark as I wanted it to be. I'm done with this collection...now I'll wait until the Boxing Day collections.

I got the B GPS and if you have Blue Flame from Style Black you will be insane to pass this up! It adds a 2nd layer that makes the blue in Blue Flame just pop! I think I'm going back for V.

Is Feline waterline safe? Are the technakohls? Is penultimate?

 

[pdtb050606]

^^ I'm pretty sure the Penultimate isn't since it has black pigments? I could be wrong

Nursee81 I am also an NC40/42. As you can tell I really like Accentuate and Sculpt, along with all the GPS, Nude Rose, and almost everything that has come out in the last 10 days.... All kidding aside I really do like Accentuate and Sculpt on me. If you like to highlight and contour this is a great product.

 

[nursee81]

Latinalovesmac is being a BIG enabler on me!!!! I will get this on tues when I go to the unveiling. I love to contour and highlight. You've twisted my arm!!!
