I love Ensign tho, I think it's sooo gorgeous, its like everything I wanted Prrr to be!! Between Ensign and my Like Venus dazzleglass, I have found my fav lipglosses!! So if you're like me and have wanted to love Prrr, but didn't, try Ensign!

I really like it too. I actually bought a back-up. But I don't have Like Venus. I wonder what else works with it?

Re: Naughty Nauticals Discussion

i'm starting to like my ensign now. i put a light coat on top of my lips after using carmex as a base and it looks nice. it's not as metallicy as it was the first and second time i applied it to my lips.

Port Red lipstick is stunning I had to get two of them.

Re: Naughty Nauticals Discussion

Re: Naughty Nauticals Discussion

So today I finally decided to use Shore Leave for the first time today and OMG that color is the cat's meow! I also used it with Illegal Cargo and I don't think that shadow looks anything like neutral pink. It showed up really purple on me. I just had to give lots of love to Shore Leave!

Re: Naughty Nauticals Discussion

Sooo, I've now had time to play with my piggies!! Overall I am pleased

Lovely Lily I've had before so wont comment on.

Mutiny is a LOT like Azreal Blue on me, I actually could have passed, the payoff isnt as pretty as it seems in the jar - well on me at least anyway. The only real benefit over AB is that Mutiny just doesnt have the same high frost to it and thats probably what will compel me to to keep this pigment.

Bell Bottom Blue - was the one I was looking forward to the most, but wasnt the one that really impressed me!!! It is however a lovely texture and colour - I am in love with dark blues, and this one is a keeper

Lark About is the one that impressed me the most - maybe because I was expecting the least from it!! Its not like Frozen White IMHO - the texture is better, the colour is very different and it also has the benefit of losing the high frost that Frozen White seems to have. I find the colour in this is more purpley-mauvey than blue which is perfect, and the colour is also quite subtle - it doesnt jump off your face like Frozen White. I was really hoping for something different and this one for me was the bells and and whistles piggie! I am really very surprised!!!

Re: Naughty Nauticals Discussion

I've gotta say, Naughty Nauticals is one of my favorite MAC Collections ever. It is like a summer time version of "Blue Storm" which is another of my faves. I ordered my stuff without trying it first hoping that it would all look gorgeous and it looks beyond gorgeous. I want to do a little review on the things I purchased so here goes!! >_< NW45 for reference.

Mutiny pigment is just so pretty. To me it looks like the sun shining on top of the ocean

It's the kind of blue that makes me think of drifting along in a sail boat hehe.

Bell Bottom Blue is a cross between Naval Blue + Blue Storm I think. It's really pretty and looks amazing over Blackground/Delft and Rollickin.

Submarine is just the most perfectly beautiful blue in my e/s collection. I love this colour so much! I have heaps of blue shadows and I was reluctant to get this because of that...but I'm so glad I did. It's like a deep sea blue but it's not too deep - its jussst right!

Meet the Fleet is such a great crease colour for me and it blends so easily. I was afraid it would be one of those colours that looks pretty in the pot but just goes on looking black but that was not the case. It is a deep aubergine colour on me. It would be so beautiful in a blue smoky eye look.

Love Knot lustreglass is just out of this world! It's a pinky, purpley, bluey shiney colour. It's definitely worth trying on if you have overlooked it so far. It gives your lips a really awesome 3D effect because of the duochrome and it's really easy to apply. It looks so great with Dazzlegass on top!

Illegal Cargo reminds me of Neutral Pink heaps but it's more like a mauvey version. Think Neutral Purple/Lilac. I know I will get a lot of wear out of it.

Buoy O Buoy is the perfect nude on me! I like it better than 4N and I love the sexy way it makes my lips look.

Naughty Nautical Nail Lacquer is absolutely beautiful. It reminds me of the Chanel one that came out for spring. I applied it at night time and it looked almost black and I was a bit disappointed but the next day upon seeing it in daylight I had to do a double take at my nails haha. The colour is just amazingly blue... I applied 2 coats but you can get away with 1 without it looking thin and faded.

Port Red Lipstick - I went back and got this today with some more MAC empties I had stashed away. It was the very last one at the counter and this collection was only released a few days ago so I was lucky

. I've never owned a red lipstick and never thought I would. This colour has blown my mind. It is almost too beautiful! I love the hints of golden orange in it.

Yarrrrr, that be all

Re: Naughty Nauticals Discussion

I been at the mac counter today and everything was still there except mutiny, port red, and illegal cargo. And I noticed the canadian price of pigment is now $23.50 CDN and not $26.50 CND anymore. yay!

 

[gigglegirl]

Re: Naughty Nauticals Discussion

pigments at least online and here have always only been 23.50 CDN......

Re: Naughty Nauticals Discussion

i checked back on the naughty nautical stuff when i went to get stuff from the new collections. everything was still in stock besides mutiny & bell bottom blue pigments. which i was not expecting since everyone said that pigments are the last to sell out. i'm glad i got my bell bottom blue when i had the choice (fab color btw).

one this occasion i decided to pick up port red. omg. love it. i've been anti-red l/s for as long as i remember, but port red is beyond gorgeous. lovely shade of shimmery red. looks great w/ or w/out lipgloss. totally wearable any time of the day. i wore this out into to the mall (after leaving the store) and got a lot of attention/advances from guys (too bad i'm already taken). a definite keeper.

Re: Naughty Nauticals Discussion

When I went to get my Neo Sci-Fi yesterday it looked like they fully restocked on Naughty Nauticals-they had all the lippies, all the Lustreglass, all the pigments, and so forth. I love Port Red to death but if anything, it's more man-repellent for me. (we can't win them all)

Re: Naughty Nauticals Discussion

port red is sold out online...
