It's not red...it's a pinky orange, just like the color of the inside of a....DUH...pink grapefruit!

but with gold pearl. It is gorgeous and honestly? I think it would look gorgeous on you. At least give it a try.

You are beautiful, with or without "Hollywood teeth"!!

Well mine are straight after having braces as a kid, but they are YELLOW (not rotting, lol), no matter what I do to them.

I feel uncomfortable in bright lipsticks like Impassioned, so always skip those, but Pink Grapefruit is really not all *that* bright because it's a gloss and you can sheer it out. Not sure how it would work with your skintone though as it works so well with mine and we are opposites.

Re: Neo Sci-fi, Solar Field, And Future Earth

I am soooooooooooooooo excited about the packaging! Orange is my favourite colour, and bright, obnoxious colours simply make me happy!

I'm loving a bunch of things, though... I'm super excited to see this collection in person, that's for sure!

Re: Neo Sci-fi, Solar Field, And Future Earth

NO no No! Trust me CantAffordMac & Audrey - Pink Grapefruit would look so good on both of you. I've found peach & pinky peaches to be the most flattering on most if not all skintones in my experience.

If it's too bright you can sheer it out a bit by adding a lil clear gloss or putting balm on first. Move away from your nudes and pinks girls!!lol

Im so glad because I missed out on Raquel & Pink Grapefruit looks so delish to me!! Cant wait. And Pleasureseeker is on the top of my list. I think I might get Magnetic Fields because I dont really have brown-blacks. I had to add Naked Space & X rocks to my list now - I hope I dont like anything else for the sake of my bank balance,lol...and after just seeing the upcoming mineralize blushers so summer OMG!!! XD

I actually think Style Minx would be pretty on you. Maybe try it with a deep colored liner and make sure to blend. It will give it some dimension. It will still be bold but not as bright. I could see you with that and a neutral eye. Hot!

Re: Neo Sci-fi, Solar Field, And Future Earth

Got the summer mailer for it today!

I thought I was being so careful when I opened the sticky part, but clearly not careful enough, taped a piece back on

 

[MisaMayah]

Re: Neo Sci-fi, Solar Field, And Future Earth

The mailer is so pretty, I havent got one for age actually years =(

I am loving Pink Grapefruit even more because of Sleepyhead's lip swatch!!

Re: Neo Sci-fi, Solar Field, And Future Earth

ooh, i'm still loving those eyeshadows. I can't wait to see swatches

Re: Neo Sci-fi, Solar Field, And Future Earth

Why don't I ever get mailers? Boooo to you mac! BOOO

Re: Neo Sci-fi, Solar Field, And Future Earth

*sigh* Girls, with all of the new news today on the upcoming collections, I feel the need to cut back on Neo Sci Fi. As much as I like both blushes, I am only getting one now in anticipation of the Mineralized Blushes this summer. I will probably get Spaced Out, because even as much as I like the mauve one, I will realistically get more use out of the peach one. Same with the lipsticks. I will only be B2M for Pleasureseeker. I like Sunsonic too, but would rather save my empties for another collection. I already have Gel, Archtype and 1N. They are all pale gold and probably not *that* much different than Sunsonic. I will still get the 2 shadows I want if they are special enough, because I love e/s. It's time for me to get choosy!

Re: Neo Sci-fi, Solar Field, And Future Earth

I agree Audrey! After seeing the MSF blushes I am going to maybe get one eye shadow from this collection if nothing at all. This collection doesn't suit me as well as cool heat and the other collections so I think it is safe for me to skip Neo Sci-fi. Plus I totally skipped Moonbathe last year and found all of the eye shadows at the CCO a few months later. I seriously get a pit in my stomach if I skip a collection but I have no clue why. I guess I am afraid that I will miss the new "HOT" item but I just need to come to grips with the fact that I don't need every LE thing MAC makes!

Re: Neo Sci-fi, Solar Field, And Future Earth

Thats it, I don't think I am going to buy anything now after seeing the two upcoming Summer/Fall collections. Those are so drool worthy and these are not so much. :\

 

[meaghanb2926]

Re: Neo Sci-fi, Solar Field, And Future Earth

Was at my Nordstrom MAC counter today and they had accidently left the jar out with the collection so I had to sneak a peak. Holy cow the packaging is obnoxiously orange- think "I am going to go hunting and dont want to get shot orange!!!"
