I just put on Ensign and... I change my mind. I really like it. I'm so fickle... hehe. It's a beautiful peachy pink shade, just perfect! I think the lighting I first wore it in was just bad.

Another question: If you could only pick 2 out of this list, which would you choose? I can't afford to get all three!

Meet the Fleet
Illegal Cargo
Shore Leave

TIA!


illegal cargo - just because i got it and love it! lol
shore leave - because its the BEST highlight!

Meet the Fleet is just a shade more purple than Grey Grape from the 2005 Magenta Cool Holiday palette.

i don't have innuendo, sorry.

I am wearing Shore Leave on the lid today, with Illegal Cargo in the crease, and Shadowy Lady on the outer V. I really like it. Even my husband said how pretty my makeup was today

As I was at my Mac Counter, I thought Illegal Cargo would be too similar to Neutral Pink, so I did not buy it. But after seeing your pics, I must go to Mac again to check this colour next to my Neutral Pink which I love.

I was really disappointed of Pandamomium, the colour pay off is so bad and it is so glittery, nothing for me...
 
Re: Naughty Nauticals Discussion

This is sort-of a cut and paste from a post I'd made on MUA, but with added comments. I'm sorry that I can't say much positive about the collection :/

Port Red is too frosty for my liking, and most of the lip colors were pretty ordinary. Not all bad, but nothing I would call a must-have. Though, if I wore pink l/g more often, I might have been tempted by Love Knot. The reflects in LK are gorgeous, so I'm starting to think maybe I should get it.

The eye shadows are some of the worst I've seen in a long time. You know those great big kits of 26 eyeshadows and blushes that you see at drugstores for $5.99? MAC is getting there. The cream-colored veluxe pearl one, Shore Leave was actually decent, but it's hardly unique. If you don't already have one like it though, I really like the finish. I had wanted Submarine but I found it a bit unpigmented and hard to build up the color. Meet The Fleet could have been nice if it had more pigment and went on a little more smoothly.

The nailpolish colors were pretty cool, but I hate MAC's formula and OPI has similar, if not identical, shades in their current India collection. Sometimes MAC puts out nice shades, but, for me, they chip as soon as you breathe or look at them wrong. If you find that MAC polishes work for you, Naughty Nautical, a shimmering blackened cobalt, is gorgeous.

The pigments were the things I was most disappointed with. I'd planned on buying a sample of Mutiny from thebodyneeds, or even a whole jar if I really loved it. In pictures is looks so nice and rich, but I still can't believe what a dry, chunky, gritty mess it was. And it hardly even stuck to my skin, it just brushed around. It makes Kitchmas look smooth, as do Lark About and Lovely Lily (those these were smoother than Mutiny). I found Bell-Bottom Blue to be very dull and frosty, but it might look better applied wet. From listening to others about Mutiny, I think maybe MAC is having quality control issues because some people say they found Mutiny to be like the ones I described, and others have found it to be smooth. Looking at swatches too, some look far smoother than others.

Re: Naughty Nauticals Discussion

It was a pleasant surprise to see NN hit Stockholm´s counters now and not three weeks later, which is usual the case! As I love eyeshadows I was immediately drawn to Shore Leave and Illegal Cargo! (I´m not a blue girl). IC I decided on immediately, I´m a sucker for plum-mauve, this shadow will match half of my closet

. Shore Leave I swatched, and even put on, and how wonderfully gorgeous that shadow is, it´s not for me! Far to white and silverly, but I loved that beige-mauvy shade it has! Such a classy colour! The lipglosses contrasted that! Call me a snob..but wasn´t that pinky glitter a bit tacky? Or maybe it was just on me..I´ve seen so many gorgeous photos on the swatch forum, but I was disappointed

Re: Naughty Nauticals Discussion

I just had to add my input on this collection...I LOVE it!! I was definitely not feeling it as first bc I didn't own any blue shadows/pigments [crazy, I know!] so I initially was only going to get Mutiny and BBB. However, I ended up getting all the eyshadows but Submarine [which I'm pretty sure I will end up getting], Mutiny, BBB, Party Mate, and the Smoothblue liner. I adore everything! Shore Leave, of course, is amazing! My fav, however, is BBB! I'm fairly new to MAC and had missed out on all the similar pigments previously released so this one is like BRAND spankin' new for me and SO gorgeous!! I have definitely learned that blue eyes shouldn't stay away from blue shadows!!

I have one question though... I am thinking about getting Ahoy, There, but do you think it will even show up on pigmented lips. I am NW 15, but my lips are pretty dark. THANX!!!

This is exactly how I feel about this collection. I have brown eyes, but in the past haven't liked the look of blue shadows on me, but I actually think it may have something to do with having only tried teal blues, whereas the blues from NN (with the exception of Mutiny) are more straightforward blues. And I also really like BBB, I think this one is quite muted, I think MAC describes it as a 'dirty' blue, which is exactly why I found this one to be really nice.

As for Ahoy, There... it's quite sheer, if your lips are pigmented, it will probably show up more like a tinted balm, but I'm actually off right now to play with everything, and I did pick this up, so I'll let you know. My lips are quite pigmented as well! I purchased it with the intention of using over a liner. I'll report back ASAP!!!

Re: Naughty Nauticals Discussion

vcanady, I just tried Ahoy, There. It really doesn't show up too much on, kind of a cool pink with a bit of a sheen to it, that was on it's own. The nice thing about it though is that it didn't wash me out the way some of the more nude lustres and glazes do, (eg, Brew, High Tea, etc) because it had enough pink in it. By looking at your avatar though, I think it would suit you if you're looking for something sheer. My skin is olive-toned, NC25. I will be hanging on to this though, because I think it's pretty enough for those lazy days where I don't feel like putting on much make-up. And it was pretty over Cream O' Spice, and I'm guessing it may look nice over Gingerroot also.

I also played with Shore Leave, Submarine and Meet the Fleet. FINALLY! Blues that actually look nice against my skintone! DH loved it. He noticed Shore Leave mostly, because he said it looked so shiny and silvery!

Thanx! I definitely think I am going to get it! If anything, I like to wear glaze l/s underneath other lipsticks to either tone down my lip color a bit or enhance another l/s shade! I have recently been using 1N this way and I LOVE it under so many lipsticks!
