I don't know what to do with the evil eye quad...in some swatches it's good...in other it's not... probably packing the color we can obtain good pigmentation


I feel the same, as I want to build up my darker colors for fall and would have loved to wear these. I'm gonna swatch @ mac and see if I feel its worth it with the pigmentation or if it's just too bad to be saved.

hmmm not really into most of this collection...might pick up dark diversion and a couple of single shadows, but not super convinced of that even!
who knows, i might change my mind...i wasn't at all interested in semi precious, and ended up spending something like $200 bucks on it...!

Yeah, I've been expecting more and more swatches would help me in wanting to buy something but that's not the case. The more I see, the more I'm turned off. I'm not buying a thing. Not even the 226. Next collection, please.

I'll believe it when I see it girl. XDDDDD

Shontay, you know you'll end up buying something...or a whole lot!

[/quote] No! :lol: The chances I'll buy something, 20%. The chances I'll buy a lot, 0%. If I see this in person and it's as bad as these swatches we have, then forget about it. I'm excited about Style Driven, though.

Have you guys seen the swatches from The Shades of You? Here's the shadows and you can find the links to the other products from there: http://www.theshadesofu.com/2011/08/mac-me-over-lady-grey-quad-and-eye.html She makes the quad look a little better, but it still looks blah on the eye.

Hmm I don't know if I want Stunner now. I was hoping it would be more coral rather than pink. I need a few more swatches before I decide.

Ohohoh l/s
Mythical e/s

Street Cool s/s


Maybes:
Lady Grey Quad (still not completely sure if I want it enough to pay 38$)
Social Light l/g
Tundra s/s

From seeing the swatches my list has grown. Sadly a bunch of things made it onto there without me noticing. So far my list looks like this.

Lady Grey Quad (still not sure I NEED this... we'll see when I swatch it myself)
Midnight Blues f/l
Dark Engy f/l
Social Light l/g
Oh Oh Oh l/s

That comes to just about $100. My credit card may run away screaming as soon as I pull it out if I do decide on all of those. We'll see... Dark Envy and Oh Oh Oh may have to be sacrificed.

It looks like I'm only going to get Cakeshop (never had a shadestick before, so I'm super curious!!)

I am also kind of curious about the 226 crease brush everyone is talking about. What's so great about that brush anyway?

Oh, and also Oh Oh Oh is looking very nice, but I'm going to have to play with it in store before I can make a pronouncement :)

same thing i was thinking! the description made it sound good i was hoping for a more coral shade but from each swatch i've seen it looks more pink & i have TONS of pink blushes

Hmm I don't know if I want Stunner now. I was hoping it would be more coral rather than pink. I need a few more swatches before I decide.
