MAC - Naked Honey Discussion

[caramel_geek]

And does anyone know how does Creme de Miel compare to Ricepaper and Soft Force (style warriors)?
All of them sound/look suspiciously similar.

creme de miel has more yellow in it than the other two. without having creme de miel in my possession, i'm gonna say its closer to nylon if anything. but the VP finish makes it worth having!

YAY for Creme de Miel being a Veluxe Pearl!! I'm starting to love VPs now!

 

[omgitzstephanie]

^ VP's are the BOMB!

my MA was telling me about the salve. he said that it is great for chapped lips, and dry skin, but doesnt get that greasyness/smellyness that Elizabeth arden's 8 hour cream, but he said the products are very similar. this will be good for my lips, as i will be in the middle of winter when it comes out!

 

[clslvr6spd]

My list for this collection is quite small & I am proud of it!

Creme de Miel e/s
Pollinator e/s
Honey Light h/p
Naked honey salve 2x

 

[dreamer246]

I wonder how the orange l/g compares with Nice To Be Nice l/g from HK? I'm still lemming for a nice orange l/g.

 

[Kalico]

Queen Bee is too orange for me too. I might only end up with Pollinator and the lighter highlighter, if even those...

Alright...this is gonna sound really silly, but I'm trying to cut down on my purchases...so here goes...

If I have to pick between creme de miel and soft force, which one should i go for?

FYI, I've already own Ricepaper, Femme-fi, Shroom, Gorgeous Gold.

And comparing Buckwheat to Night Maneouvres, which is more wearable or worth getting?
I already own Woodwinked, Bronze and Espresso.

TIA!

I think Erine said before that Creme de Miel is like Dream Maker from Starflash, which is why I want it.

even though it's not a VP it's a great frost! nicely pigmented with shimmer. I swatched it compared to night manoeuvres from style warriors and I found it much easier to work with and more pigmented (even though they're totally different shades

)

honey light highlight powder seems nice to me. quite sheeny rather than sparkly underneath the overspray which I like. not too sure on the colour though, it's a bit yellowy. will have to see on my face I guess.

Buckwheat is more warm toned than Night Manoeuvres right?? Warm like Bronze or more golden like Romp??

I wasn't really a fan of Africanimal...it actually reminded me of Tarnished Love. The Naked Honey reminded me of honeysuckles, and dried down to a soft honey scent. It is strong, so a light hand is needed. Deja Rose is my love...I actually like to mix it with a vanilla musk oil I have to soften a bit. MAC fragrances are made to mix so you can get really creative with them.

Then again, I fall head over heels with fragrances and get eventually get bored with them so in a few months I may hate it. and the products doooo smell amazing!

 

[GlamQueen21]

Ok, now I have to narrow my list once again. I now want two things. Both Creme de Miel e/s and She's A Star lipglass. I just got excited about a new collection coming out at the end of July.

 

[Yushimi]

Woah. What happened to this thread? Lolz It's coming out soon!!

I'm only getting one thing though.

Crème de Miel

If this isn't the dupe I'm looking for in my Shiseido quad then...my hunt continues lolz

 

[FemmeFatale]

Narrowed my list down as well...

Creme D Miele
Honey Hi Light Powder
Honey Salve- Prob 2 of these!

 

[alka1]

anyone know what size the Naked Honey Skin Salve is going to be? I'm hoping not too small! I really want it but for $18.50 i'll just stick to my Burt's Bees Lip Balm
