But I don't get to go to my counter so...I just don't know. It's great to hear so many people loving it! It will remain a mystery for me, I guess.

I am doing the same with Conjure Up: too dark, the right colour etc. In the pot it is gorgeous, but I do not know.

SDN is pure

, I like it a lot, but I can see why some people might not consider it.

She-Zam, She-Zam. I am now lemming She-Zam, but I'm not sure if I really neeeed it. I'm a sucker for snowy-festive-sparkly, especially at this time of year. I'm being very much swayed by the glowing reviews on here as well... and I'm intrigued to hear that it's unique as originally I was wondering if it was close enough to Sugarrimmed.

I am, however, a definite Dazzleglass bimbo and it's hanging out in my cart in the order I've been picking away at for the last couple of days...

What do you think? Is She-Zam a must-have?

hhhmmm must have? no. lust have? absolutely!

i own she zam and like it because i love dazzleglasses. and yes this one looks amazing over pale lips in particular... over creme cup lippie is my fave combo! the silver is lovely and it has some red sparkle too. but at the end of the day you could just buy a mac silver glitter and add it to clear gloss for similar effect

 

[malaliath]

I think I'm probably going to get it

LOL because I'm all about the lust-have...I know I'll get a lot of use out of it.

I agree it is beautiful! Somehow I just got the feeling while swatching the blushes at my counter that I've seen those colours before (actually these blushes were the ones from this collection I was most excited about). It might be because those are my favorite colours when it comes to blushes, the coraly/natural blush colours and the rosey/cool a bit darker blush colours, so I'm drawn to those always!

And I know they both would've looked great on me, but I still think I have something fairly similar within the blushes I already have. But if I'm wrong, I will regret not getting them (or then I'll just get them if I see the need).

I got sexpot smokey yeah I am a sucker for smokey eyes I already had everything but Sunnydaze but I love the vials for traveling plus naked is one of my favorite pigments I know my big one will get used up in time.

Yeah! There are so many paths that lead to MACperdition.

I love that term Lou! Pretty much everything is a lust have for me because I already have too much!

I think so too! Because I'm on a no-buy for blushes and lippies, the only thing I can buy are eyeshadows.

The only thing keeping me from developing a full-blown addiction immediately is the fact that I hardly put on eye makeup.

I only bought SDN from this collection, it was the only thing that looked like a must have for me, cause I only like peachy-bronzy blushes now. I don`t think that pink blushes look as good on me it`s like they enhance spots and redness on my skin, I`m NC20

hee hee! i know what you mean! i'm getting stricter with myself and what i buy now. i really do have enough colours of all products to last me a lifetime! so things have to be very special now for me to be buying.

pigments and msf's though i still feel like i can never have enough! but shadows, glosses, lippies, paint pots and such i have way too many!

i agree! naked is awesome. it's also the best under eye concealer ever for me

 

[Hypathya]

I'm back from MAC!!!

Here's what I've got:

Midnight Madness MES
Mayhem MES
SDN MB
Conjure Up MB

And, I just couldn't resist: Mystic Cool Palette.

Now I own the 4. I know, I've been bad.

I'm so happy!! Bad girls have the most fun!

 

[GlamQueen21]

I didn't get to go to the MAC store today to B2M what I wanted! *sigh* Maybe I'll wait until next weekend or so. SDN is going to be purchased sometime this week!

 

[coachkitten]

Can anyone recommend a dupe for It's A Miracle MES? It says that it is a deep blue burgundy and I can't think of a MAC color that would be similar. Maybe embark? TIA!

 

[malaliath]

Su Perdu Pernatural is now sitting in my shopping cart...but this I do believe I need, because I don't have any really warm-toned blushes. In fact, I hardly have any blushes at all...(waits for gasps of horror and shock to die down)

(For the record, She-Zam is also sitting in my shopping cart, because it really is a lust-have.)

All that said, I'm going to head to bed soon and save my shopping cart for tomorrow ... sleeping on it can't hurt!
