MAC - MAC for Ungaro Discussion

[AudreyNicole]

I just got back from the Red She Said party, and was able to get my Ungaro stuff too. I really liked the collection, though I felt that most was dupeable. The shadows had decent payoff on me. I ended up with Pure Rose l/s (B2M) and Crushed Boob CCB. If I end up with extra money, I may go back for the shadows and the l/g, but I won't be heartbroken if I miss out as there are alots of things similar IMO. The BP was pretty, and obviously pink, but I opted for the BPB from Red She Said instead.

^^^good call on crushed boob, for sure.

Mineral has no 'sheen' to it, good for a warmer eye combo. Mineral vs. Dark Edge: Dark Edge is more 'brown' than Mineral. Although they are both Satin e/s, Mineral has more of a redder tone to it--just a hint. In all, they are different...I can't really say that one is a good dupe for another... sorry. HTH!

Darn, I was hoping to hear it was a dupe for Clue. Well thanks anyway!

awww, I know...I've already failed in the 'content' dept. - who was I kidding

Now i want a couple of those pink sheer mineral loose powders...then I ordered another Black Russian & Molasses pencils....

umm, yeah...on & on it goes

Oh, I just got a sample tube of the Chanel mascara, but I didn't like it as much as the DiorShow & MAC Plushlash

I'll have to try Lashblast...my drugstore didn't have it last I looked

So Audrey, how do you like Crushed Boob? And would you describe the color of Stark Naked?

Thank you

The e/s Lilac Touch is so pretty. Is there an e/s in the permanent line that ist similar to this colour? I love those LE products but using them is kinda hard because of them beeing limited and not that easy to replace.

I love Crushed Boob! I am SO glad I got it. I am wearing it on my lips today with Stark Naked on my cheeks and it really brightens up my face. I want to try it on my cheeks tomorrow.

As far as Stark Naked, compared to what I have, it is more pigmented than Gentle and Blooming blushes. Love Thing is more red. It's not plummy really, but it is more of a cool toned rose pink. It's bright, but not as bright as Pleasantry. It's very unique IMO. Different from all other 12 blushes I own. Kind of reminds me of Afterdusk, but a bit brighter and much better color payoff. The shimmer is about the same as in the MSF blushes. Hope that helps some. It's so hard to describe!

I just received my Lilac touch eyeshadow and I have to say-I am disappointed. The colour payoff is pants and on me it looks a LOT like shale

I will try this e/s tomorrow. If you already have shale I can unterstand beeing disappointed.

But it also kinda calms me that there is something very similar

Yay!!!

I wore it today with Mineral & Lilac Touch...so pretty. I love, love it on my lips too.

I used the MAC 252 brush with the shadows today, & it applied the color pretty good. I found that the shadows went on great if I didn't use any powder/primer on my lids...but if I did, it was a little harder to get the color to show up really well

Audrey! My Ungaro haul was like yours! B2M for Pure Rose and CB CCB.

The rest of it just didn't seem to be worth my money or empties, based on lack of colour payoff and what I already own.

It does!

It's also fantastic under cellopink lipgelee on the lips.

Mine isn't sweaty like many of them appear to be, either!

...Crushed boob sounds so painful.

 

[elegant-one]

^^^ mine weren't/aren't sweaty either.

I always wanted cellopink & valentines lipgelee but never got them

shoot, I may have to search them out

 

[thelove4tequila]

Just saw Ungaro today and I was underwhelmed but I totally loved Pure Rose l/s. I'm gonna order it!

 

[MACBUG5]

Anyone know of a good l/l match for "Pure Rose" l/s??

Either in cremestick liner or reg. lip pencil...

TIA!!
