MAC Quite Cute Discussion

Liking Play Time - it's another of those purples that looks pink on the lips. I've swatched it on my hand against similar colours that I have, but none appear to be a dupe for it.

I've swatched the quad on my hand too, and the Boycrazy shadow doesn't seem to show up there at all, even though it shows well on my finger tip. I think this is one that I will have to try on the eye to see if the colour shows, but as I have a cold today with watering eyes, I'm not trying it yet. Seems quite a few of us didn't turn up at dance class today because we have colds. I wonder if we all got them at the show on Saturday? My best friend says she is spending the day in bed because she feels so rough.

Aww, being ill sucks! Hope you get better soon, the promise of trying new eyeshadow should get your immune system motivated haha

......enjoy your goodies Lou!!!

Neon sounds just great for me because I do so much want to have such a lipstick for Summer!
I can not wait to get my Candy Yum Yum....

my goodies have arrived! but i've not got much time to take photos so i shall have to do it tonight. candy yum yum is much more neon than i thought! i don't think i can wear it to work because it's a bit much! quite cute lippie is very sheer on my hand. pretty but sheer. and sakura blush is pretty much pink when you mix the lavender with the heart. or maybe it just looks that way on my skintone?!

Alright, first impressions of Giggly are that I like it and it's cute but it's just a generic shade of pink. Not a must have by any means. The pigmentation is decent and it shows up on my NC30 skin with just one swipe of my 129. I don't see any glitter but it does lean towards the frosty side because of the heart. If you're not keen on the frost, I don't think it'd be too difficult to avoid the heart by using a smaller brush. I compared this to Pet Me MB, which is the closest colour I have to a dupe, and Giggly is a brighter, cleaner pink. while Pet Me has more a slightly more dusty mauve undertone. It's dark and gloomy at the moment, so conditions aren't great for pictures and swatches. I'll try and have a go at it tomorrow.

^^ Anyone in Canada who loves the colour of Little Girl Type but doesn't want to pay $18 for nail polish, I found a gorgeous colour that is similar (a little bit darker, but still a lovely pale purple with a cream finish) by GOSH called Wild Lilac. It's only $7, and I think you could mix it with a white polish to get very close to LGT. These polishes often go on sale at Shoppers, too

Play Time sounds similar to Spitfire and Style Curve. If you've seen those two, can you compare them to Play Time?

Enjoy your hauls girls!

I may skip Playtime. I prefer my purples to have a blue or grey base to them. I do like Style Curve though and I'm sure I have other purple lipsticks that have pink base in them. I just don't want anymore. Hoping that Bust Out! in the Surf Baby colleciton has more of a blue base to it.

My QC stuff still isn't here! Also, I'm considering getting riveting rose in a few days, does anyone have any opinions on it? It looks reaaaaaally pretty on temptalia

lipsticks look soo different on me than they do on temptalia, make sure you check other pics before you purchase. I've bought stuff in the past based on how lovely it looks on tempt's lips and have been really disappointed!

Quite cute's face charts are lovely! My favourite one is Bubble tea! Quite cute face chart is too funny

 

[Ahoyitslivvy]

UGHHHHH!!! I want to get sakura but I'm afraid it won't look exactly "pink" on me. I'm NW20 but I have no mac stores near me

 

[27dots]

ooh where can you see the face charts?

 

[xasperadastra]

you can find face charts on the UK site! they are under Quite cute products!!!

 

[gracie90]

well dhl have really messed me around! I've been tracking my parcels online, and it says that no-one was in and they left a card. Well, no-one knocked and no card was left! So I phoned them up and they said that it's not supposed to be delivered until tomorrow, despite choosing today on the mac website. And since I have no card, I can't organise delivery at a time that is convenient for me arggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggggh sorry for the rant but the guy on the phone just really frustrated me!

The lighting in these pictures look fairly accurate and not too dark... not sure I want any lippies though. lol

Could someone tell me how Mischievous Mint is compared to Mint Candy Apple/Turquoise & caicos by Essie and 240 sold out for ever by Catrice?

CYY looks really good on that last picture!
How much more neon is it that Show Orchid? I hope a lot!!
