Like most Amplified Cream lipsticks, and Lustre eyeshadows are the same image, just different colors. That's why one should always take these facts into account when ordering online. Specktra is a great resource to use when deciding on ordering colors, since many members go out of their way to post swatches, and describe products in depth. =)

That's what I don't get. It really doesn't seem like that much of an effort, especially since NYC Pro has their own photography studio

and the amount of product they give away and use as testers totally overshadows any amount of waste they would have from crushing up one collection to photograph. Either way, those website images are not so great.

Soooooooo ummmmmm...

At update we didn't have 3 Mineralize Skinfinishes. We had a 4th as well.

And Gold Deposit was her name. My trainers couldn't give me a reason why. They were surprised it was in there as well? We had one for each table and it seemed that they were all brand new (Soft & Gentle, So Ceylon, Petticoat, AND Gold Deposit). So it's being repromoted somewhere I guess!! EXCITING!

Edit: My trainers said that the SheerSheen loose powders being eye safe was an error, so be aware that it is NOT eye safe!! Only safe for on the face!

Lightweight with sheer coverage. Safe for face and eyes (according to the ingredients list, though the colour story has a symbol next to the SheerSheen powders that says it is not eye safe. I will be asking and clarifying this up at Update). Dermatologist and ophthalmologist tested. And just for those interested, the Mineralize/Natural and Shimmer powders do contain jojoba oil.

Thank you so much for this Bunny!

Erine, Bunny, VioletB - will we see the 181 repromoted again anytime in the fall with either mineralized collection? I am SO hoping this becomes permanent eventually!

so far its LE.

it is so freaking cute!

edit: sorry, i was thinking of house of minerals. it will come back as LE with sheer minerals, but not with house of minerals, tho they launch the same day.

 

[Zantedge]

It says in this thread http://specktra.net/f250/mac-sheer-m...t-08-a-105092/ that it will come back as LE.

Oh sorry , did you already confirm its coming back with this collection?

 

[AudreyNicole]

Whew, I am so glad it will be back. I got all freaked out, cause in one of the mineral threads, Bunny posted a list of brushes that were being repromoted, and the 181 was NOT listed on that list. I paniced a bit, cause I WANT this brush so bad, but I just can't get it right now. I have to wait. I noticed the quality difference immediately once I started playing with it. It is so cute!

 

[HeavenLeiBlu]

Definitely getting Petticoat; maybe So Ceylon after I swatch it in store. Same for the 3rd one.

 

[darkishstar]

So Ceylon is definite because I'm tanner because of summer.

Petticoat.. maybe. And Soft and Gentle sounds lovely! I probably will end up with all three.

 

[BunnyBunnyBunny]

-Whines- I want to know why we got to look at Gold Deposit Mineralize Skinfinish! Where is it coming back!!! When!!? Erine, did you get to see Soft & Gentle, So Ceylon, Petticoat, and Gold Deposit at update?

 

[KikiB]

Sign me up for Gold Deposit...please help me conserve my Northern Light.

 

[Julie5]

[CantAffordMAC]
