MAC - Semi Precious Discussion

[LMD84]

Could i please have an opinion from you guys? The pictures from the mes and msfs are on lushiousbeauty.nl. She did put a link to specktra.net and said the pictures where from here, but i still thought she better could have posted a link to the specific thead with the pictures. I wrote that in a comment and said the girl that posted the pics was afraid to post them because they could be stolen. I said that the watermarks where the idea of other people on here. I know the person that runs lushiousbeauty is also a member here and i asked if she pm'ed the girl personally to ask if she was allowed to post the pictures on her site. I also wrote that it might stop people from posting pics if they still pop up on other sites this way.
Did i do it right to post that comment or do you think it was already enough from her to post a link and give credits to specktra?

well it would have been nice if she would have posted a link to the thread but at least she did link us! so many people just steal our information and don't mention where it was from at all which is very mean. I think you were right to comment and it's sweet that you thought to do that. But you are right in saying it will stop people posting pics when they turn up in other places - that was why bbgillian (owner of the pics) was hesitant to give us those pictures in the first place.

Thanks for answering

I was already afraid that it wasn't nice of me to post that comment. I hope she doesn't think i was trying to be mean.

i don't think she will think you were mean at all. i think in an age where people steal information it was good that you did mention it! and you never know she may actually change the link so it takes people to thie thread so they can chat with us too

 

[BeckyBenett]

i think tt wasnt very mean dear.. it was rightfully done so. after all, bbgillian was hesitant to share her photos for that very reason. and im sure the person who owns the blog is nice enough not to take it negatively bt constructively, which was how you meant it anyways..

 

[LMD84]

exactly! that is what i think too

 

[Pinkdollface]

Thanks sweeties, now i'm not feeling bad anymore!

lol! you stalker you! thanks! they do sound interesting - if they get good reviews i shall still buy one!

If the eye blending brush is like the 224, it will be interesting to see how well it will blend as you will have two different types of bristles. Will you get patches of unblended/overblended areas or could this be the best thing since sliced bread? If they work, these sound like they would be great for travelling, you could do your whole face with 2 or 3 brushes. I can't wait for more deets.

it sounds like they're going for the sliced brush idea lol!

[sunsetbeauty15]

[MACina]

I totally agree....MAC brushes are really worth the price!

 

[Alisha1]

I have no MAC brushes at all...there just so expensive and I don't seem to get a chance with all these collections coming out left, right and centre :/ I think I'll just stick to Ecotools for now

[Goddesslily]

Does anyone know the names of the MSF's?

 

[MACina]

....yes,unfortunatly they are quite expensive.

And it is so true....there are always so many new and pretty collections coming out that there is no budget left for products from the
perm!

About the brushes.. I just got my first one a couple of weeks ago (the 188) and they're expensive, but I'm sooooo in love with it! When I got it, I debated whether I should get the 188 or the 187 and my MUA said with these things, you really shouldn't look at the price but at the quality. I ended up buying the cheaper one though, because I feel I can use it for a lot of different things since it's smaller. I love using it with my MSFs or blush, because I can never accidently get too much on my face and especially with my Gold Deposit MSF, when I use it with a regular powder brush, a ton more product comes off than what I actually put on my face. I feel like with a regular brush, I would destroy that pretty thing!
