Re: Naughty Nauticals Discussion

I only ended up getting:
* Shore Leave (looooove it - as someone mentioned its the *PERFECT* highlight colour)
* Illegal Cargo (dont have anything like this its a mauvy pinky colour - its one of those you have to see in person)
* Naughty Nautical nailpolish (gahhhh its perfect dark midnight blue)
* Ahoy, There! l/s (my biggest BIGGEST disappointment. I am a pinky lippy girl but wow this doesn't even show on me and all I see is those sparkles (didnt even notice this in the store!) I have never returned anything to MAC but this might be the first.

WOMP WOMP!
I think I really wanna try Port Red from what I've read even the non red lippy girls are loving this one.


Mutiny is a nice sky blue with a teal reflect. The texture scared me though and I passed but I was thinking "I wish I got that..."

Yay! I bought 3 lippies yesterday. Ahoy there, party mate, & hey sailor. Wasn't planning on buying Hey Sailor until I swatched it over the 2 lipsticks and saw how perfect it looked

Thank you!
The swatch really helped me, I appreciate it.

Re: Naughty Nauticals Discussion

I'm in love with this collection, it's the first time that I felt I want it ALL. Plus the promo pic is hot, one of the best make-up applications I've seen from MAC IMO.

Since unfortunatley I can't have all, so far I ended up getting:
Port Red-similar to Queen's sin, but seems to be a more everyday wearable shade.
Bell-bottom blue- I wanted a dark blue color since ages, the only trouble was deciding between Bell-Bottom and Submarine. Following the MA's suggestion I went with the pigment in the end.

On Monday I'll be back to the store. Illegal Cargo, Pandamonium and Party Mate are on my wishlist, but I have to narrow it down.

Re: Naughty Nauticals Discussion

I loved seeing all in store! And I knew I wasn't going for the blue e/s so I didn't even worry about them (I have a whole palette of blues and greens I've barely used) but YES I got essentially all I planned!
-Shore Leave--My expectation was like meh, another cream but swatching it so had me sold, I love it!
-Illegal Cargo--I love Neutral Pink and for me its along the same lines just purple. LOVE!!!
-Party Mate l/s--I had wanted a more fun summer pink, this is definitely it!! I'm not totally comfortable wearing it on its own (a mind over matter I think, I've been told I don't look "funny" wearing stronger colours but in my head I think so).
-Ensign lustreglass--I just love lustreglass and the brush, nice light pink colour (Love Knot's blue reflection was too much for my liking and Hey Sailor had too much glitter in the swatch)
-Bateaux lustreglass-Looked at, was unsure but swatched it and layered it over party mate....I like this one! Gives me more versatility over the pink lipglasses/lustreglasses I have!

Lovely Lily pigment--I had wanted to like this but swatched it and was far too "chalky" feeling and the colour....just not my thing. So no pigments for me other than the samples I've ordered from 1165Cheryl!

I got Lovely Lily, Mutiny, Ensign, Hey Sailor, Shore Leave, and Illegal Cargo. I wasn't gonna get either of the e/s but on a whim, I decided I love them both!

I'm pissed I didn't get Ahoy There. I asked for it but she put Buoy oh Buoy in my bag instead. That's happened twice at that store. Argh. I returned it because I really have no use for it. Then they were all out of Ahoy There.

I'm gonna track it down somewhere in my city though and I think I'm gonna pick up Port Red. It is beautiful ... even though I rarely wear reds. I'll find some use for it.

YES! I LOVE Shore Leave!!! No wonder someone earlier said they bought 3 backups. For me, it is the perfect shade. I applied it all over my lid to brow & it makes the whole eye area brightened. Also put it in the sideways 'v' outside the tear duct corner. I'm getting backups of SL & Love Knot & Ahoy There!

Meet The Fleet met my high expectations. I applied it over the SL just to the crease, then added carbon to the outer v and just above crease. AWESOME.

I also applied MTF over a Bobbi Brown shadow called Fog which is a medium soft grey just up to the crease - nothing else above - which draws attention to a beautiful eye arch - lash to crease. This is my Daytime smokey eye. Subtle but sexy.

LOVED Love Knot! It looks awesome over Party Mate. Party Mate is about 2 shades darker/slightly redder than Blueblood. Party Mate is very pretty.

Ensign - I wasn't wowed by this shade, however, I found it is very pretty over 3N lippie

Ahoy There! - very pretty but soft light, pale pink - this will be my everyday pretty in pink lip. Love Knot & Ensign both looked very feminine over it. It's also very soft & creamy in texture.

Port Red is, like all the others said, a beautiful wearable red. It looks great with She Gold over it. My Shirelle polish is coming Mon. with Glamour OD.

It's still on the MAC website, and they have free shipping on orders if you type in NAUGHTY during checkout, so you'd just be paying tax, like in the store, and it'd save you the gas from driving around. HTH!

Re: Naughty Nauticals Discussion

Even though I was just in my MAC store yesterday, I went back and bought more today. I really surprised myself by deciding to pick up Love Knot. I never buy MAC lipglosses - I stick to cheaper brands! - but for some reason I fell for this. It makes such a gorgeous magenta when layered over red lipstick. I also grabbed Shore Leave. I'm still seriously debating Ahoy, There and another Party Mate (which I am in love with). I think Party Mate is my new favourite lipstick... I've not taken it off since I got it yesterday (well, except to sleep, of course). Aaaahhh! Silly MAC! I still don't even have all teh BPBs I want!

I am anxious to play with the pigments tomorrow. There are endless possibilities for color combos with this collection. Everything goes together so well.

Mmmm, all this talk about Shore Leave.... does anyone have both SL and Phloof? I'd like to know how each of them wear, b/c they really do swatch the same colour on me but it's not like I played with either one of them that much at the counter. Does Shore Leave really deserve that much love?

I can't believe I haven't even placed my order for this collection yet, (it's all in the cart just haven't pushed "place order" yet) I'm super surprised that all I'm getting is Mutiny pig. and Bell Bottom Blue pig. Well more money for the next collection I guess.

I only bought Mutiny Pigment.

Submarine and Freshwater are not exactly the same, Freshwater is a brighter blue pearl, while Submarine is a darker blue.
