MAC So Reel / Reel Sexy discussion

[SOMUCH2SHAY]

WOW! That is one gorgeous lip! I've been trying to figure out the best way to wear Reel Sexy. I LOVE that! Now you're making me go to Ulta tomorrow.

OMGOSH I am so elated this morning. I FINALLY found a way to pull off Reel Sexy lipstick for women around my complexion! The lip combo is Reel Sexy lipstick
paired with NYX lip liner in Earth Tone! This is good because when I originally got the RS lipstick I was upset with how it looked, but a little liner made it look gorgeous and wearable. I strongly recommend trying out the combo. If you don't have Earth Tone lip liner, MAC's Chestnut would be a great substitute.

=) thank you. Pick up Crysta Soda gloss (that's what I used to top it) and Earth Tone or Coffee lip liner. NYX has a lot of great neutral lip liners.

Dynamic Duo 3 is really unique IMO!

And the texture of the eyeshadows is very nice.

I'm actually thinking about Star Quality because it looks like quite a unique colour. I'm also tempted by Cinestyle. Duo 3 does look good - I find it hard to resist any kind of taupe, and I don't think I have any teals that are similar to that shade... Maybe I will end up spending more on this collection than I thought!

Thats what happens to me with my Kat Von D palette. I love the colors but they are too soft. Even with a primer I cant get the color to stick to my lids. It just blends out to nothing.
I find using the UD anny palette with paint pots helps with that a lot. I use primer too.

Thanks! And yea it does to a little effort. Everything that swatches great doesn't perform well anyway. I don't even use my UD 15th Anny palette because the colors swatch great but they are TOO soft so when you blend them it looks like one mixed color. lol.

Does anyone know where Pink Popcorn is still available on-line? I've tried to ignore it but I cant get it off my mind!

Hmmmmmmm... and as I think about it, I've NEVER used my paint pots or chromalines as bases when I used my UD anny palette .... I always used my NYX eyeshadow bases, which I heart dearly... I always use them (especially the white one and the skintone one) and never have problems with my eyeshadows. I'll try using a PP first then a chromaline!

Thanks love

That is true but I am not into neutral looks too much.I need some bold colors in my face lol
I use neutral colors only in combination with bold ones.

I did notice that its in stock through the canada site. You can call the toll free number and purchase over the phone. The Canada toll free, not US. I do it all the time. If you are a pro member you can also use your discount as well.

My first order with Lightscapade arrived today - mine has quite a bit of pretty veining! Really surprised no one has seen any in theirs.

Mine has some subtle blue veining. What matters most to me is how it looks when applied.
