Btw, I was bored and decided to do a FOTD for the heatherette 1 + 2 trios. It's on the swatch thread. Sorry for the crappy eye application on the 1st trio. As it took me 20 mins to do the fotd for trio #2 first, I just got lazy and did the 1st trio in less than 10 mins. lol, but i just wanted ppl to get a general idea on how the colors looked together on the lids. I didn't put blush or much foundation on...boy do I look pastey and uneven toned! lol

True about the horrible weather. And that is okay about waiting,

I can wait for my shadows.

And thank you for those FOTDs! You just made me want them...again. LOL Do you think that there are any colors in the perm line that are close to any of the trio colors? I am really lemming Trio 1, but I'm on the fence about Trio 2.

Hey blueangel1023, thanks for that very informative post. I shied away from sassed up cos of the glitter chunks. But I do like my shimmer so it looks like I'll be getting orgasm after all. Thanks again hun!

Re: Heatherette for MAC Discussion

Due to the font used along with the color of the packaging, this line reminds me of Bubblicious gum!!

I happen to love bubble gum, so I am excited for this collection! LOL.

Re: Heatherette for MAC Discussion

Yeah! I will totally skip Fafi Quad 1 for Heatherette Trio 2 after seeing those FOTDs. Heatherette all the way! =)

Re: Heatherette for MAC Discussion

I know I'm bad at gaging sizes from just looking at something, but are the e/s in the trios the same size as a regular pan??

I too am thinking Heatherette Trio 2>Fafi 1 for me.

Yep, the e/s trios are in fact the same size as the pot and pro pan e/s

Yay! So I'm not the only one thinking this. I was pretty torn between waiting for Heatherette Trio 2 over Fafi Eyes 1, but I think that purple is what does it for me. =) Because Fafi does have 4 colors, but one of the colors is vanilla, which can easily be subsituted with another personal highlight color.

Re: Heatherette for MAC Discussion

Definitely, I found vanilla to be really chalky when I swatched it. But I feel like I'd be missing out on Hey since the lightest in Heatherette 2 seems more like a highlight vanilla-ish colour. Must...find...hey..dupe....

Seriously I love the swatches on your eyes Blueangel!!

Plus the Heatherette casing looks a lot more fun than the fafi quad case--I was tempted to make my own Fafi type dupe one with a reg. quad case so its clear on top...yeah...I'm weird! LOL

Re: Heatherette for MAC Discussion

There is probably a good Hey dupe out there, any tan/taupe shimmery color should work I would think. I do have some browns that probably lightening it with a highlight color would do the trick.

I have also read somewhere on this forum, that "All that Glitters" is a good dupe for Hey.

I love the Heatherette packaging as well! Can't wait till I get my hands on it. It's more up my alley than Fafi, though I think I will be buying less from this collection than Fafi. I just have so many hot pink lippies that I think can dupe Hollywood Nights and the hot pink lipgloss.

Re: Heatherette for MAC Discussion

I can never have too many pink lipglasses and lipsticks-esp.with this casing=hot

Re: Heatherette for MAC Discussion

heatherette doesn't look too appealing to me. i'm probably just going to get the pigments.

fafi's packaging is way better imo.

Re: Heatherette for MAC Discussion

the pencils won't be packaged like they are in the pics. some special packaging items aren't in the special packaging when they are samples. the white on the pencils is actually a sticker. there will be different packaging for the pencils when they are released. what it looks like i don't know yet.

Smooth Harmony is a medium bronze glow so you can surely use it as a bronzer. Alpha Girl and Smooth Harmony has no shimmer in them, so it's safe to say it's matte

Hmm, I'm sure there's a few similar e/s to Trio 2. I think Da Bling might be close to Baby Petals. VIP is like a mix btwn Pink Venus and BLM playful. Cassette (no similar colors come to mind)...but maybe it'll come to me later! As for trio #1, I don't think I've seen a green like that before. Like it's pastel green, but has some rainbow reflects. I guess that's probably why they call it Mood Ring, because in certain lighting the green looks different. Hoppin which is a peachy color is close to Jest but w/o the shimmer. Cloudburst ofc is a repromote from Blue Storm, so if you missed out getting that u can get it from this collection. The closest one would be Black Tied but that has silver instead of the green glitter reflects. That's already captain obvious. lol

Re: Heatherette for MAC Discussion

The beauty powders are shimmerless? I didn't know that!
Aw, I don't think I will be getting them afterall then... I'll probably save for the b/p blushes then :X

 

[QTAllStarGurl]

Re: Heatherette for MAC Discussion

^^ me neither....b/p's w/ no shimmer makes me sad

...thank god 4 beauty powder blushes!!

 

[Julzie]

Re: Heatherette for MAC Discussion

Thanks for that blueangel1023! Seems like everyone wants shimmer in their BPs but I don't

Guess I'm going to be getting both

Re: Heatherette for MAC Discussion

Not with all those plastic slip covers. That looked cheap as hell.
