MAC - Gold Fever Discussion

[kimmy]

i didn't even know that sharkskin s/s was dc'd...shows how dense i am, sheesh. i had it once though, and i wasn't stoked on it at all so i returned it. i finished off my overcast s/s and i still have a little over half of my beige-ing s/s which i rarely use. they're great, but they add too much sparkle for everyday wear i think...and sharkskin was just so damn effing hard to blend unless you like melted it in a frying pan first...but then it would burn your eyelids off, so that part wasn't really awesome.

i don't know how come mac keeps repromoting things? if you haven't got anything new then just don't worry about it...for fuck's sake, we don't need a "new" collection every two weeks.

For fuck's sake....I'm going to start saying that now.

You're right, about the s/s. It sucks trying to blend it....

Yeah it didn't budge at all!!! I'm pretty sure i saw her use it on the bride and the rest of us bridesmaids and it lasted all day and night! Actually my make-up still looked damn good the next day so i just re-applied some more eyeshadow over it! I know that is so gross but it looked so pretty even after i slept!!! But yeah, that base was sooooo hard to get off after!!! That stuff is budge proof!!!

It is great as a base during allergy season with runny eyes.

Also, to get it off more easily, put down a layer of FL in Froslite first and then use the Classic Cream LLL over it.

Still stays put all day and is easier to get off at the end.

i was wondering if someone could post a swatch of silver fog pigment since i think it's one of the pigments coming out with this collection and probably one of the things im going to get as it's a pro product that will be available to us.

what glitters are coming out with this collection? does anyone know?

AudreyNicole posted in the original thread about this. She said 3D Silver and 3D Gold Glitters were being repromoted.

Well at least that's $15 I can save since I already have 3D Silver. Once my Marigold arrives though, I can make the decision about whether or not I need 3D Gold. I also don't need Golden Lemon but will get Silver Fog.

If you are talking about MAC Marigold glitter and want something different then you will definitely want 3D gold glitter because they arent anything alike. Marigold is an orangey yellow large chunky based glitter, 3D gold is much finer, more yellow and has that pretty holographic effect

The glitters featured are 3D Silver and Gold and retail for $15, though I am unsure if the recent price increase has affected their pricing. Gold is described as "sparkling chunky gold". I have not seen this glitter in person myself, but it is actually a different glitter than 3D Gold, and Reflects Gold.

Okay, I will be getting 3D Gold no matter what. I can only say I hope for a lot of Halloween parties because I want to do some masks with the glitters SO badly.

Please be aware that the glitter featured is Gold not 3D Gold.
