MAC - Love that Look Discussion

Tomorrow we finally get LTL here! The dept. store open at 10, and I'll probably be hanging around outside all morning, pressing my face against the window, going "is it 10 o'clock yet? Is it? Is it?"

My hubby gave me some money for my b-day - he didn't have time to buy a giftcard - and he told me I cannot use it for anything other than makeup. So I'll be leaving the store like this

How can one wear UBW? Tear-duct highlight? I do remember reading that it's too frosty and a bit much for a brow highlight... I'm an NC20/25 for reference.


its a bit too white for an underbrow highlight unless you use it with the lightestttt lightest hand and justttt under the brow and blend blenddd it out.

but its an AWESOME tearduct highlighter /inner lid color. i lovee it on my inner lid with any color. ANY!!

honestly, ive even worn it as a full lid color with deep blues in the crease. yeah its still summer but oh well.. i like the icy look

I should never be in a bad mood, because every time that happens I go to MAC and spend a bomb there. I had a terribly bad day at work today, I got scolded by my supervisor for no apparent reason (well ok, maybe I'm slightly at fault but I definitely don't think I deserved the shit that I got).

Anyway I hauled:
Fashion, Style Snob, Ego, One-Off, and Fashion Groupie. I think the colors all go really well together! I can mix and match them.

The counter that I went to was out of Smoke and Diamonds, but I'll be heading to another counter to grab it on Sunday.

I'm thinking if I should get Strike A Pose and some others too.

Enjoy your goodies. S&D is great if you like smokey eyes. UBW is getting so much love, perhaps you may consider getting it.

I have been very busy at work and it wasn't pleasant to work on a new project. But I am resisting UBW well.

Rachel, I look forward to your FOTD with UBW.

You are really good at resisting your impulses. I am terrible at controlling my finances, every time I feel a urge to shop or if I'm in a bad mood, I *have* to spend money. I was contemplating between a new pair of shoes (would've been cheaper) or MAC goodies today, but I figured MAC would be more therapeutic since I was feeling very down today.

What did you haul from this collection? I'm still new to eye makeup so I don't really know what shades will work for me. I'm judging purely on what colors I find pretty-looking.

Rated "R" looks interesting, but I have a feeling that it'll look terrible on me.

Winnie, I bought One-Off, Black Russian and Fly By Blu. I already have Rave and S&D. I have Sharp, which is very similar to Rated R and I wear it well, so I think the chartreuse colour flatters my Asian skin tone. Maybe you can try it at the counter first.

Babylard, are those the only 2 colours you're missing from this collection?

That's terrible. But thank god it's Friday!

I'm glad you bought something from this collection because the texture is awesome! And what better collection to start you off than this if you were just starting to grow your eye shadow collection.

Fashion is an awesome colour and so is S&D if you like the smokey look. I think those 2 are my faves out of the 5 I got.

Based on process of elimination I'm still lemming Style Snob, Fashion Groupie & Glamour Check. If I can convince myself to skip the single eye shadows from the upcoming collection I'll get SS & FG.

^^ I think I may end up with almost all the colors from this collection. Since I'm just starting to get into e/s, I think I have permission to get them all.

You do Winnie! You really do. I would have done that if these are my first shadows. You may be able to find similar colours for some of the shades but not in this texture. Do it!

Careful Winnie, eyeshadows are seriously addictive! But they are good for cheering up lousy days.

Since I got birthday money, I will be getting quite many eyeshadows from this collection, provided I like them in person.

Style Snob, Strike a Pose and Rated R are verrrrry likely to come home with me. UBW I'll need to try, but I don't really have any good white shadows and with the rave reviews it's getting, I'll probably get it.

Fashion Groupie looks lovely, but I have developed a weird allergy towards some purple eyeshadows so I will need to test it on my lids before buying.

I wonder how unique Ego is. Will any light pink do the trick, like Shimmertime pigment? If not, I'll get this one too.

A third UBW ended up at my house somehow.

I know what you're thinking...I'm shocked too! It must be a runaway, I have to give it a good home. Sending it away would be cruel and rude.
