MAC Quite Cute Discussion

[quote name="shontay07108" url="/forum/thread/173299/mac-quite-cute-discussion/1890#post_2101343"][quote name="Tatyiona" url="/forum/thread/173299/mac-quite-cute-discussion/1890#post_2101341"]I got my black box today! So far I like everything, I have no regrets. Candy Yum Yum is super bright and bold. Quite Cute actually goes on sheer but is buildable, so WOC have no worries. I heart u is pretty sheer and the plumper really burns my lips no bueno. Sakura is awesome when applied wet and YES is does show up on darker skintones. I just posted some swatches on my blog. http://killerlipgloss.com/quite-cute-swatches/ I'll try to post more pics and put them in the swatch thread tomorrow.
[/quote] Thanks for the pics. Candy Yum-Yum looks really good on you. How does it apply/wear? Is it super clingy? Do you have naturally dry lips? Sorry for all the questions, but I'm still flopping on this thing. [/quote] Yes, I have dry and sensitive lips so I have to apply lip balm first. It is clingy but it isn't dry so just make sure you exfoliate well.

Anyone in the NY/NJ area know if the pro store on 7W 22nd street(flatiron district) has this collection? They open kinda late on Saturday (10 or 11) and I just want to be dressed and ready to go instead of waiting to call and find out.

I'm still excited for everything! My list has gotten smaller though. Thanks for all of the reviews ladies!

All four lipsticks except St Germain
Sakura Blush
The Quad
Naked Liner

Still pretty expensive but I've actually cut it down! lol I was going to get a polish but they seem pretty dupeable

i went today to walgreens and found lacey lilac and minty sorbet, maybe close dupes to the quite cute nail polishes, don't know yet.

they loomk pretty close in the bottle!

well, today is the haul day!! I've taken Candy Yum Yum, In Synch, Naked from Quite Cute... I have not taken Playing Koi because was terrible on me... it shows lips imperfections, It's really a pity, in the tube looked awsome! Here in Italy it seems we can only take permanent lipstick with the Back to MAC and after watching all the lipstick I've taken Honeylove!!! Finally I had also a powder and the lip primer ^^
I still have to try my Quite Cute stuff

Your comparison pic was so helpful, thanks! I can remove both Play Time and Spitfire from my "maybe I should've"-list

I've almost gotten over Candy Yum Yum too thanks to Madly Magenta ccb. Lately I've been wearing it over a hot pink lip liner and rocking the neon magenta lip. I'm not even sure I'd like a pure neon pink now so I'll probably wait until I get to go to Mac and see if they still have it then. MM is probably creamier than CYY too. Don't think I should get CYY without swatching it first.

I almost got those exact same two polishes yesterday at Walgreens for the same reason! And plus, they're a great deal at 2 for $4.

woah! we need cheap polishes like that in the UK!

Any thoughts on Sakura for us pale girls? (Hope I have the name right. The lavender blush.) I have been looking for a color like this for awhile.

i'm nc20 and it looks quite pink on me. not chalky and quite pigmented. very nice to be honest!

 

[mac_aiken]

Lou, does it pull lavender at all? My favorite MA says it is like Stars n Rockets for the cheeks. Is it similar at all to Overdyed from Jeanius (which I already have)?

thank you so much for the swatches! I already have Style Curve and Spitfire, so I can pass on Play Time and (maybe) get a backup of CYY now

 

[LMD84]

there is a touch of lavender but to be honest it just seems to turn pink on me! i might try using less of the heart next time so it is more lavender!

 

[LMD84]

oh and sadly i do not have overdyed so i am not sure

 

[geeko]

Candy yum yum is the only lip color from this collection that calls out to me... such a pretty neon shade of fuschia pink. I MUST have it

 

[liba]

I'd love to see a comparison between Sakura and Azalea Blossom.

I hope Sakura is more purpley!

 

[Alisha1]

I have both Overdyed and Sakura. Sakura pulls more purple compared to Overdyed. The heart is a similar colour to Overdyed but the finishes are different
