MAC Magnetic Nude Collection (December 26, 2013)

[lipstickaddict]

Koi is kinda milky on me, but I still love that color.. I don't know why..

I am surprised that CC is so brownish, since it is described as a peach.. I think Myth looks more peach than CC.. I should know better than to take Mac's descriptions seriously..

At the counter, Sensual Sparks looked like a darker brown version of CC.. I didn't buy it so I can't compare it..

I do like CC but I think it looks very similar to other lipsticks that I have..

Personally, I'm disappointed with CC now that I've seen it in person. From the swatches I had seen online, and from what I had read, I really thought it was a lot more peach. Christine even compared it to sweet and sour, which it in no way resembles. Wish I hadn't bought it blind when it first went online!

If anyone is considering sweet heas edes I def recommend it. I love using it in the crease with neutral looks!

You are not alone!!! I LOVE FP and picked up A natural flirt yesterday. It is really beautiful in person. Was also considering sweet heat, but it is similar to one they have in their permanent line which I have (the name escapes me--All the Glitters or something??). Hmmmm....should I pick up sweet heat? Man, I am picking up way more than I had originally thought from this collection, but I love so much of it!

I picked up superb, so perhaps I can use that instead of sweet heat, seeing that it is eye safe. Hmmmm....should I pick up sweet heat?

The EDSFs arent eye safe.

Thanks for the info! Guess that sweet heat is back on the list!

Thanks! I was still making my way through the thread and hadn't see Erin's posts on this yet. I had also been told the opposite. Good to know!

Superb is NOT eye safe according to Erine and the info she posted from MAC's update book. Oops! Guess it was already pointed out to you

Just left MAC- put on Sensual Sparks with Oh My Darling on top and was IN LOVE!!!!

Does anyone know some good dupes for Oh My Darling?! Or should I rush back to the store?!??!

Oh My Darling seems like a very dupe-able colour. I'm sure you would be able to find something very similar from Revlon or another drugstore brand. I also think I used to have a similar colour by Benefit, but I threw it away because I couldn't stand the smell.

I tried to capture FP and this was the best I can do. I love it as a highlight !

gorgeous!!!! I love that lipstick on you

Lucky! The CCO nearest to me never has brushes.

Aww, I wonder how they determine which CCO's get what. Anyone know?

Wore Morning Rose today and a little bit of Pleasure Model on the cheeks. It was a rainy day so I couldn't get a great pic and I was lazy with the rest of my makeup. I really like PM although I should have applied more for it to really show. MR wore pretty well for a Cremesheen (5 hrs with drinking and no touchups). It was still going strong when I took it off. PM looked the same as when I put it on despite how light I applied it.

-.- well she's got some learning to do. you'd think having a book with such a simple, easy to reference, key would do some good.

Yeah she do! She has this info at her disposable every day, yet i remember it from the original extra dimension collection. hboy:

I wonder this too.

One of the workers there told me it is done by how much business they get and they have letter grades. If I remember correctly, they are rated A, B, and C. If the CCO is rated an A, they have first pick of products to sell in their location. B gets second pick and C gets last.

Carnal instinct! This picture doesn't even do it justice! It's beautiful, I rarely backup lipstick but this one deserves one, or two!

Mine must be an F because they hardly get anything
