How much is crew in US$$$?

Bump :bump: !!

I wish Heavenly Creature was coming out during the same time as HS so I could buy everything at once. I keep going back and forth on if I should add Red Racer and FF blush to my list. Most likely I won't. I'm currently trying to find something in my collection that is similar to Feeling Fresh e/s so I can take it off! haha... that'll only leave me with Orange Tempera and Riviera Life l/g's and Emerald Sea eye pencil... I KNOW I'm getting those 3 for a fact. Feeling Fresh looks nothing like Kush. Not even close. Feeling Fresh reminds me of a grassy/bright/kelly green.

West Coast I'll be happy with the Lakers or Clippers going all the way. So proud of the Clippers making history last night! That game was awesome!!

I feel bad for the Bulls fans though with Derrick Rose tearing his ACL...

I feel same way. I wish him a speedy recovery…

^Yes, I agree. Kush seems more like a blueish green. UD's Homegrown seems closer to Feeling Fresh. I'm not sure if Homegrown was ever released outside of Book of Shadows 2.

I looked through my collection some more and Feeling Fresh kinda looks like MAC's Fresh Flare e/s!!! .... I thought about my NARS duo in Misfit but the green shade in Misfit is a jewel-toned green and FF is a grassy/kelly green..

MAC's Fresh Flare eyeshadow is a TAD darker than Feeling Fresh. They're both definitely in the grassy/kelly green family.. I've collected all of Urban Decay's single eyeshadows and even though they have many green shades, none are comparable to Feeling Fresh. It seems that difference between Fresh Flare and Feeling Fresh is that Fresh Flare has a slight sheen to it and is a tad darker, while Feeling Fresh has more of a frosty shimmer to it and is a tad lighter... Hmm..... My list Hey Sailor list went from 4 products to 3. haha.

I was wondering about this. I would love to see side by side swatches of Fresh Flare and Feeling Fresh. Hopefully, someone will post some. I had no idea the collection was coming out so late in the month.

Interesting! Thanks for checking them out. Fresh Flare is on my list to pick up. So I may skip Feeling Fresh!

I'm all Lakers, all the way. Live, breathe, die purple and gold! Since only one team can win it all, I can't support the Clippers unless they somehow make it past the Lakers. And I feel horrible for D.Rose and can't believe the coach kept him in!!!

Since LA looks like a true peach, I'm putting it back on my list.

I would like to see it as well! Those two eye shadows are dangerously close.

I can tell you now that you are going to enjoy Fresh Flare! I have 5 of the 16 Pro Longwear eyeshadows (including Fresh Flare) and they are a joy to have. MAC NAILED the formula on those. I actually like them better than their regular eyeshadow line. hehe

 

[Shellcat]

From looking at the swatches online, I like Fresh Flare much better.

wow you really knocked a fair bit off your list!!

i'm definite on fleet fast, the brush and jaunty...i'm still uncertain about the bronzers...does anyone know what the difference is between the pro bronzers and the regular, and if they're a good thing?
and i guess i'm less keen on crew, too...at the beginning i only had crew and the brush on list!
i dunno if i can wait three weeks till the collection arrives here...!

Yes girl, totally agree with you. I have zero complaints about the pro longwear eyeshadow formula. Definitely pick up a couple of them. I have:

Styledriven
Fresh Flare
Hot Paprika
Weathered
Sunny Outlook

 

[Shellcat]

Yes, I have 8 of them and LOVE the texture! Super easy to blend!

It's funny, because I try to order one each time I go into MAC for something, and Fresh Flare was the next one on my list!!! LOL! So yep, I scratched Feeling Fresh off my Hey, Sailor! list.
