MAC - Naked Honey Discussion

[iShadow]

Would it be preposterous to ask if Expensive Pink is in Pollinator's ballpark? I'm still drooling over Creme de Miel and Buckwheat... I can usually manage to talk myself out of glosses, but these are sooooo lovely!

 

[dreamer246]

I really like the look of the lipglasses!

 

[thezander]

how come I can't stop thinking about Eddie Murphy's "Buckwheat" character from old SNL?

also, do we know what the finish is on creme de miel? I'm trying to decide if I need it since I have femme fi and solar white...

Yep, me too, O'Tay.



But I am definitely rocking Buckwheat on my eyes.

 

[Face2Mac]

Ok, Erinne, I give up.

I can stop looking for dupes, because I don't have anything else orange, so any suggestions for dupes by anyone, won't help me. But you guys keep trying, I love it, it's fun.

Does anyone have an idea on what they used on the girl in the promo pic for naked honey?? Lips??

 

[Sophia84]

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Queen Bee!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[starberry28]

I can't wait to get my hands on that salve!! Also planning on picking up both highlighters since I read they can be used as bronzer for fair skin, Queen Bee l/g and maybe the Naked Honey perfume if it's not too stinky

 

[Karen_B]

I am so much more excited for this than Style Warriors! Based on the swatches, I want all shadows (except maybe buckwheat 'cause I have so many browns) and at least one of the powders.
Queen Bee looks nice but I'm not sure I could pull it off.

its a VP, but the colors aren't even close to the two you mentioned.

buzz lipglass

 

[Debbie_57]

Ok

How about Shine-manish l/g compared to Queen Bee l/g?

I got to see this today,and I really love this collection,a lot more than I thought I would!First off the Naked Honey perfume is OMG....

It smells amazing.I'm wearing it right now,it smells like a tropical flowery honey scent.This is the best perfume I've smelled in awhile,I can't believe how much I love it

Africananimal is spicy musky,it's okay if you like that sort of perfume.
The salve smells so good,it's a light sweet smell,doesn't stink at all.And it feels SO silky and just sexy.No greasiness at all.It comes in a small tin,but it will last you awhile.
The lotion is very very soft,it feels effin awesome.This too has light,kinda warm honey smell.
The shower gel smells a little stronger,and the scent is amazing as well.
Pollinator es is peachy,with a little coral in it.Not like expensive pink at all.
Creme de miel is gorgeous,a pale yellowy color.It feels so soft,and is very pigmented
Buckwheat is really pretty,way better than Night Manouevers,not even close.More like Magnetic Fields and also really pigmented.
Buzz lg looks kinda dark in the tube,but it's more like a orangey peach,with maybe a touch of plum to it.
She's A star is pale shimmery gold,like Elaborate but more pigmented it seems
Queen Bee

pale peachy coral,verry pretty.Also unique looking to me.
Honey Light powder,the overlay is a pale golden shimmer,but underneath is still kinda shimmery,not chalky at all.Still a little shimmery.A perfect highlight color.No glitter in it.
Th darker pwder looks like it would make a good bronzer.The powder underneath the overlay is kinda matte.
Overall,I LOVE this collection,the body products are delicious and the best body stuff and perfumes(besides VAE)MAC has come out with.
I have put aside Naked Honey perfume,the salve,body lotion,Pollinator es,Creme de miel es,Queen Bee lg and Honey light powder.

do it

give in

buy queen bee

 

[Peach08]

so far the list seems to be expanding, good for me but bad for my wallet

all three shadows,
she's a star l/g
Queen Bee l/g
Honey Light powder
and the salve

 

[CantAffordMAC]

I planned on skipping most of this collection but its starting to interest me

 

[BrokefromMAC]

I have no idea what highlighting powder would be better for me now

. I want a golden hue to just have some shimmer but not much. I don't know if the light one is too light and not show, and if the darker is orange or too matte. I am NW 25 to 30 in summer. Any advice would be great

.

No, Shine Manish is way orangey-red. Not light at all like Queen Bee.

Watching the first lady on tv now, she is rocking a orange peachy lip, love it.

But her eyebrows are way to thin and arched.

Oh, me to, I am a gold eyeshadow addict! I think when this collection comes out I will walk in there with a crazy amount of gold eyeshadows swatched on my hand just to check if I REALLY NEED Creme de Miel.

Good that Naked Honey fragrance doesn't seem to smell like the honey I usually like (Lush Soft Coeur & HIWTK), so I can pass on this.
