MAC Heavenly creature discussion

You're making me excited to try Stratus! But I also haven't tried Supernova yet. What to wear first...maybe Supernova on one cheek and Stratus on the other. And RoS is also coming tomorrow so I need a third cheek. Didn't I tell myself to slow down on the blush department after Tres Cheek and Hey Sailor?

I swear I cannot express how much I love these products. I finally switched from being obsessed with starwonder to light year. I had just been using the light peachy part of light year as a highlight, but today I decided to really use it as a full on blush and concentrated my brush on the rose veining and gold swirl... it was as if NARS deep throat and Luster had a baby. I have been searching up and down for a blush that has a similar golden sheen to Luster in ANY other color for about two years(I am all about the sheen, shimmer, and sparkle) and this has that same effect.

Heres some Stratus pictures for fellow pale ladies. I know a lot of people were wondering how this looks on paler skin. So I thought my arm was nc-15, but I guess it's already lost the little tan I was able to pick up and its back to being nc-10.



Heavy Swatches: L to R: Swirl color (idk how to describe it), mixed color, dark purpley color.
FLASH NATURAL LIGHT



Blended out on my arm with a blush brush (Hakuhodo 210). You can see it just adds a lovely hint of plummy color. It's very wearable!

I used my Earthsine again today, but applied it with my 109 brush....... LOOOOOOVVVVVE IT!!!! I'm only NW20 but it looks amazing as a blush. I actually like it much better applied with the 109 than the 131 or 187....I have no idea why but it just looks more natural. I find the color to be quite neutral (not too gold or orange), not at all muddy, and there are no extra glittery bits, just shimmery sheeny goodness. I am really surprised at how wearable and wonderful this MSF is...... EVERYBODY NEEDS AT LEAST ONE! :eyelove:

guess who dropped their newly purchased, not swatched, or photographed earthshine on the floor and it is now cracked.... sigh... LOL

Oh no! I'm sorry that happened to you.

I really really love Venus but I'm not sure why!

Maybe because it's gorgeous? I think it's very face brightening & got 2!

NOOO! So sorry to hear since it's so unique. Hopefully it's still usable?

Is it a small crack or is it broken into pieces?

Crystalis007, I know you from youtube! I usually watch your hauls

Meteoric looks FAB on you!

Perhaps I should look into getting it! Hmmmm....!

 

[Icecaramellatte]

Nooooo!!! Ugh I guess you can crush it up into a jar and make your own Earthshine loose powder?!

Ooh that sounds like it would be so pretty. Maybe you can use it like pigment.

CotU looks beautiful on you! And I especially love your eye make up as well. What eyeshadow did you use for eye make up in this pic?

Thanks! I used Mac rated r on the lid, sketch in the crease, and naked and half baked from the UD naked 1 palette to blend out and on the lowerlashline. Here's a better pic

So I finally caved and got my own Earthshine, and Center of the Universe and I also got a back up of Venus just because I love it so much. I'm also lucky that the ladies at the counter here are super nice, they all know me and they always let me pick my own swirls which is funny since I just moved here 3 weeks ago lol anyways here are my babies I tried Earthshine at the store and man oh man was I wrong to give it away the first time I bought it lol.

Um, yes! Which one did you skip? You should go back and buy it! I'm sure it's lonely. It needs to rejoin it's other CSG friends, haha.
