Xasperadastra, Would you mind translating this part about Riveria Life? TIA. Quote: Dupes: io lo ho paragonato al lipglass Caqui che è più sheer, non ha brillantini ed è leggermente più rosso; Wonder Woman ha una brillantezza e shimmer simile, ma è un roso, non sono comparabili. La mia compare Ale Dotted Around mi ha detto che somglia a Sonoran Rain (un lipglass uscito con una limited edition esclusiva USA, la Blogger's Obsession di cui vi ho parlato QUI), ma credo sia anch'esso un po' più rosso!

The Google translater is awful.. I though it would have been better than my translation but I'll keep doing the job by myself -___- but it takes a lot of time to write a big post in two languages U__U

Anyway:
Dupes: I've compared Riviera Life to Caqui wich is more sheer, redder and it has no glitters inside; Wonder woman has the same shimmer but it's a true red so they are not comparable at all! One of my friends told me it looks like Sonoran rain but I guess it's redder!

Still trying to figure out what the body oils smell like and how much they are in CAD. *sigh*

I can't help you with the Canadian prices, but I tried Seaside in store and I believe there was no noticable scent. Perhaps very subtle, but it smelled like nothing to me.

I know it's wrong, but I've swiped my own shadows here and there with my fingers and even a dirty brush and they weren't automatically ruined like that.

There's the issue. Never ever use fingers to swatch (or a dirty brush). FF is very well pigmented. I recommend that you take a metal brush to scrape off the top layer and you are good to go.

YAY! They look lovely on you! If I remember correctly, you also purchased Sun Dipped PLW Bronzer? I'm an NC40 at the moment, but it won't be long until I'm an NC42 with summer around the corner. I'm curious to see how Sun Dipped would look on the face on skintones NC40 and up.

Hey girl, I Wore sun dipped bronzer today and it warms up my complexion. it's subtle but evenly bronzed all over. If you see the photos from yesterday I think I do look a little more tan today. Here's sun dipped buffed onto my whole face down to my neck:



I think you'll enjoy wearing Sun Dipped when your a nc42 in summer

This may a case where the shadow perfoms better in action than in swatches. Try usuing it as an eye shadow and see how it goes. MAC does have a few e/s that are notorious for this.
I agree with Spikesmom that it shouldn't be ruined with just a quick (clean, dry) finger swipe or dirty brush. I've been known to do this before too and haven't ruined any eyeshows.

Maybe you got a dud, since you seemed to notice it looking different. Maybe try exchanging it?

yesterday I received feeling fresh e/s in the post
..and its not pigmented?
I had to swirl my eyeshadow brush all over it to pick up something.

When I was in the daylight I could see it looks different.
when I used my finger, only like a slight tint of green shows up on my finger tip.

I have had this problem before with an eyeshadow from urban decay another mac eyeshadow and my belightful beauty powder :(

I hear everyone saying the eyeshadow is great so whats up with it!

I feel like I need to return it
anyone had any thing like this before?

When mine first arrived I swatched it quickly with a clean, dry finger and it was beautifully pigmented. I know it's bad to do so, but I was too impatient. Hopefully it's just a dud and you'd be able to exchange it? I'd try to if scraping the top off doesn't work.
