I went to the mac counter today and added Glamourdaze, stolen moment and ready to party to my haul. I also added the pink make up brush set to my hubby's c.c

I forced myself to skip evening gray and divine blue. I completely forgot to look at the blushes but thats probably a good thing.

Let me check!
From what I have, NYX Coffee comes the closest to Glamourdaze. MAC Hover is also close in color to NYX Coffee, but Coffee leans a tad more pink. I would also pair it with MAC Plum. It brings out the mauve color in Glamourdaze and adds dimension to the lip since it's a bit darker.

Beautiful things start to happen when it's paired with MAC Currant. Currant deepens Glamourdaze's color without making it too dark. I had to add Flight of Fancy L/G on top of it.

I think there are some more pencils that can compliment Glamourdaze based on my hand swatches, but I don't want to wipe off the Currant + Glamourdaze + Flight of Fancy combo to check.

I definitely did WAYYYY more damage than I was expecting. Soo glad the next few collections will be quiet for me.

SIDENOTE: My Nordie's girl said they are taking pre-orders for the Mascara sale they are having buy 2 get 1 free its with all counters too, not just MAC. It's on November 3rd.

Ok... So here are my things and this doesn't include the 4 others I picked up already (Superb, Small Vanity, Beauty and Outrageously Fun) and my girl gave me tons of those cute bags.


Devine Desire: Paramour Pink
Purple Shadow set - I initially didn't want it but I don't really have any purple in my stash so I got it.
GlamourDaze L/S
Talk Softly to Me L/G
Catch my Eye FL
A Natural Flirt EDES (my girl said they only got one in, which I didn't pre-order, so I went to Macy's and got it, Thankful I have 3 MAC stores/counters in my mall)
Round Midnght EDES
Phloof! regular ol' shadow
Raven Liner
Mystery Liner
Whisper of Guilt EDSF



edited to add the date of the sale and the names of all that got. :)
Nice haul! I love Phloof...I am wearing it tomorrow. I can't believe they only got one of the Catch My Eye in. Why bother?

Here are my comparison swatches I did quickly today:

Top row are the new EDES in Evening Grey, Round Midnight, and TD&H

Bottom row is Warm Thunder, Rich Core and Dark Dare.

I passed on these three new ones. I like WT, RC and DD better.

I did way more than I had planned. I'm so excited though. I haven't had a big haul like this in a while so it'll be a few months at least before this happens again haha. I got phloof! Cause it looked so pretty paired with the purple set as a highlighter. Plus I needed something like it. I'm still shocked that's all they got. I called the Macy's that I bought mine from and they had 3 more so I had them hold 1 more for me. It's soo pretty. I find it funny how little stock they get of things. I was talking to my girl about the volcanic ash exfoliator that I never bought and she said they had 2 still. Just crazy. I'm going to go back and get it. Haha

I went to the mall to pick up some new shirts and I took a "peek" into MAC to possibly get the leopard travel bag. It was sold out but I wound up leaving with two of the eye palettes and Glamourdaze x2 along with all the stuff I ordered online. I'm so upset with myself lol I just can't keep any haul "small"

Wish I would have gotten Small Vanity
It's my favorite out of the bunch! Is it sold out yet? My bloomys had it.
 
Does anyone know where I could get a backup of Glamourdaze l/s? I noticed that the MAC site is already sold out of it...I am glad I had the sense to snag the one I got but I really love the color on me. Is there anything comparable in the perm line? Thankies!

My goodness! That's more stressfull than site stalking. I'm glad they were able to order everything though. It's so hard to find a MUA that can get your order right. Some people just don't know how seriously we take makeup! lol
I was telling the hubby and he's like it's just makeup then he's like oh wait "Mac addicts don't play" I just laughed I'm like specktra Mac addicts don't play when it comes to our makeup were dead serious we better have our stuff lmao I really wanted to go off on the guy lol but anger never gets what I want so I had to be nice

So I just tried on Feminine Edge.. this really is hard to work with! In my horrible bathroom lighting I couldn't see any color applying to my eye at all really, just glitter, which was getting everywhere, I had to keep layering it on in order to get it to be somewhat opaque, one of my eye's started feeling slightly irritated so I stopped and ended up going and looking at in a light up hand mirror. Just when I was about to give up on it completely it actually looked cute in the better lighting, aside from the glitter fall out on my face, and the irritation stopped. I think I'm going to try it 1 or 2 more times and check it out in natural lighting. It would be nice if you wanted to be a fairy or mermaid for Halloween and didn't mind getting glitter on your cheeks.
You know it's interesting that you mention this. Our friend who works at the MAC store was wearing Stylishly Merry with Feminine Edge all over her lid as a sparkle type wash.
Her eyes were red and irritated and my friend had to give her eye drops.

That would be me if I bought it. I couldn't handle Let's Skate pp either.

I am glad I decided to skip the FL's. I might have skippers remorse over the blushes but I really DON'T NEED anymore blush.
