Picking it up will satisfy your MAC addiction and let you try out the finish without breaking the bank, and you won't be stuck with a random color that doesn't work with anything else.

Just my thoughts!

Where can I get empty quads? The depotting sounds good, since I love lippies but I can't justify spending anymore money on them, so the empties will allow me to B2M and get a free l/s.

You can get empty quads at freestanding MAC stores. I also know that they offer them online or at least they do in the US.

winnie, you could get the quads which are super cheap at any pro-store and the online canada and us sells them. im not sure about singapore though. but it can be easily be CPed for you.

for depotting, i recommend the flat iron method! its super easy

I don't have a pro store in Singapore, but there is one free-standing MAC store. I should go there to check it out. I don't have a flat iron, so I depot using a candle.

But I'm too impatient so sometimes I crack the product slightly while depotting.

*gasps* i'd freak if my eyeshadows crack! my very first eyeshadow broke but it was a crappy one. beauty sleep... its so chalky and gross =S but i do have a very broken cork which makes me sad everytime ir each for it.. like everyday T_T

i was impatient with pandamonium so the edges cracked a bit so its got this very shallow dike going around it lol. still looks fine though!

dont you hate the toxic plastic smell!

Winnie, the store at Taka should have the quads, 5 got my palettes from them.
Maybe you should try to depot with the hair dryer method, it's easy peasy and the plastic doesn't melt.
I found the tutorial here on Specktra but I can't remember where!

A hair dryer works just as well - just pop the plastic pan out of the 'pod' and hold the dryer on the back of it for about 60 seconds (I use a pair of bamboo tongs to hold it so I don't burn my fingers) then just gently pry the pan out with either an exacto knife or a dental pick tool. If you want to put a magnet on it, you can do so at this step. Then 'blow dry' the label for about 15 seconds to get it off the 'pod'. You shouldn't have any cracking or breaking if the glue is soft enough.

My first attempt using my husband's wirecutter did not go well either, but I got a new more delicate one from the craft section in Walmart that works much better and all of my depots have been perfect ever since.

If anyone is still on the fence about Rated R, get down now!! If you don't get any other, you have to get this one!

It is my new favorite of the Starflash shadows and no one is more surprised than I.

Today I did a Babylard-inspired One-off look but modified it with Rated R in the center lid and over Black Russion liner in the center of the lower lid.

Beeyoutiful!!!

Thanks to Babylard's gorgeous look as my inspiration!

Macy's still has it on their website.....
