MAC - Naughty Nauticals Discussion

[darkishstar]

Re: Naughty Nauticals Discussion

Hahaha, well the pictures changed me into not wanting Bell Bottom Blue, it really doesn't look that different from the other dark blues, or as pretty as I originally thought. If I want a dark blue, I'll get a PRO color or something.

So only Mutiny now for me please! My wallet is happy now!

Especially since I just paid $20 for She-Gold from Dress Camp.

Re: Naughty Nauticals Discussion

LOL some of you are cracking me up with your frequent list changing. You *know* those lists are going to go out the window when you see the colours in person right? I reckon you will end up getting more than you thought...You know what its like when you get to the counter and the new display beckons to you and the MA puts a little on you and tells you how fab it looks? That's when the MAC frenzy kicks in and you start grabbing stuff you didn't even know you needed. You see other people trying things on and think how great it looks on them, and you must have it for yourself! Well that's how it is for me anyways haha. I have MAC Madness.

I was going to get a few shadows from Neo Sci Fi, but if this collection blows me away like I think it will, I will pass on that collection entirely and get what I want from this one I am still dying to know exactly which products were used on the models eyes in the promo pic too!

Be strong Audrey!!!

Lol, sooo true!! But I'm really going to try and restrain myself. At least there's only one pushy MA at my counter, and I know what day she doesn't work, so I'll be going then!

Re: Naughty Nauticals Discussion

I am really in trouble. I got an email from my MA, and she went to update today... She said I am going to be broke this summer. She knows what I like better than anyone, and what colors look good on me. I thanked her for confirming my suspicions. At least I know in advance that I will be broke. I am going to do a preorder for NN, Stowaway, Dazzleglass and Skinsheen early next week, as soon as the products come in. My wallet has gone hiding already!

SHHH!!! Don't remind me! I like to live with my delusions for as long as possible! lol

So far, I think Mutiny is a must for me, but I'm still up in the air over Submarine and Bell Bottom, though I might cave on Bell Bottom just because I love pigments. However, the cream shade, Shore Leave IIRC, looks really nice, but I feel like it could easily be duped by something from the perm line.

I bought nearly all of Blue Storm, so if that is any indication of what will happen this time around, I am done for.

I simply can not resist blue eye stuff and pink lip stuff

Re: Naughty Nauticals Discussion

Port does not look too warm at all. It is a warm red but it does not appear orange and I think I am going to like this. I'm still confused. I'd love to just get one pigment but mutiny and lovely lily are calling me.

Yeah! I swear, you are my twin in terms of color! We're both NC30 right? hahahah We talk about the same colors in each collection, like in Heatherette! And try to help each other decide on colors. Lol yeah, and now we're both like.. Mutiny is a must.. but up in the air about Submarine and Bell Bottom Blue.

But yeah, I'm keeping my delusions of only getting one pigment from this collection!

Re: Naughty Nauticals Discussion

These pictures just made my decision. I knew I was getting the Mutiny piggie, but NOW I gotta have the Meet the Fleet shadow, Port Red and Buoy O Buoy lippies, as well as the Love Knot and Ensign glosses. That new brush is pretty too...

Sounds like you will have a lot of fun with this collection!

The pictures really did help, Risser always posts awesome preliminary pictures! But it lessened my list, rather than increased it!

What makes people think they look similar?

I just posted some swatches and product pics over here: http://specktra.net/f217/mac-naught-...5/#post1093129

I think Neutral Pink and Illegal Cargo are definately simular. To me IC is more of a mauve-y pink where NP is on the peachy side of pink. Both have the same grey-ed up look but I guess Illegal Cargo is more brown. Because of their different finishes (Satin vs. Frost) they do look quite different when applied, they can also be worn together I asume.

To me IC is less natural looking because it's darker and more mauve-ish. It would be great as a crease colour or on the outer lid. I think it's a lovely colour, maybe I'll do a FOTD today

Meet The Fleet is absolutely gorgeous, and nothing like I already owned. I compared it to Flashtrack and it's very different not only because of it's finish but it's darker and more purple. It's closer to Prankster, but it's darker and less grey. I absolutely love it, because to me it's a very blueish purple. When I applied MTF, it was really dasrk: an almost black purple.

I love Hey, Sailor! it's a little lighter than Party Mate l/s. They'll look lovely together. This is my first ever Lustreglass and I really like it. I wore it on bare lips to take some swatch pics and it dd not feel dry at all, it's a creamier texture than the tinted lipglasses. After a while I did feel the glitters when I rubbed my lips together but that didn't bother me.

So I really love everything I got from this collection already.
Mutiny p/g, Ensign l/g, Ahoy, There! l/s and Naughty Naughtical Naillaquer are still on my list. I wonder if I should pick up Bell Bottom Blue pigment because it seems simular to Blue p/g. I'm also still wondering about Submarine e/s as I already own Freshwater and will be getting all blue/green eyeshadows that are coming out with Cool Heat.

LMAO!! You are so right!! But sadly, I'm a NC15, I think (I've never been matched by MAC), but from what I've seen on here, I turn NC30 in the summer! Darkishstar, you make me laugh so much!

Oh man, I just got matched for foundation around the winter season... I hope I don't get even darker so I'd have to get a new foundation in the summer! That's a big difference between NC15 to NC30!

But if I ever get to swatch the colors first, I'm for sure going to compare Freshwater and Submarine for you!

Once the Buffalo winter and cold go away I'm outside with my dog or playing lacrosse or just happy that there is no snow!

I do sunscreen, but, alas....lol

And thanks for comparison!! I never get to my counter (thank god for maccosmetics.com!) but if I do, I'll be sure to swatch them for you!

I definitely have to swatch this time! Ahahahaha, especially for this collection, since I'm so up in the air with Submarine and Bell Bottom. I'll try to find some dark blues to compare Bell Bottom Blue to.

When people swatch in the store, do you take pictures of your arm right away then? lol Or do you wait till you're somewhere else? I always wonder.

I'm always out on the beach playing volleyball or swimming, but my face likes to burn while my body tans very nicely. lol. But yeah, even with suncreen, I'll tan.

Yay! And if I manage to get my camera working again I'll try to take pics of some blue comparisons too!

And usually I swatch them on my hand, but my counter has really soft lighting that I wait till I get out into the main mall hallways (?) and then take the pics since the color is truer.

Heehee, you sound sort of like me with the sun!
