MAC - Sonic Chic Discussion

[blindpassion]

I got Love Thing (...................... If you are very quiet, you can almost hear Audrey and Elegant-one snickering at me in enablers joy =) )


LOVE ITTT! love thing is my new love thing. hehehe.

 

[darkishstar]

I ADORE LOVE JOY. I've been using one per day so far. And I LOVE Love Joy! So beautiful and just enough drama than Nuance and Dainty. Wow, I'm in love! Used it with Magnetic Fields, Woodwinked, Naked Lunch and Black Tied on my eyes.

Just a prediction.. Which 6 blushes from the sonic chic collection do you think will be the ones that get repromoted later during the year.

1. Dainty
2. Warm Soul
3. Merrily
4. Gentle
5. Plesantry
6. LoveThing

... just a guess

The end of July? Nooooooo. Maybe I should check here in Belgium then.

I think it is working perfectly with Love Thing especially, because it is not nearly as dense as the 187 or 188 so it only deposits a tiny amount of color. More often than not, I have to put on a second swipe, even of Love Thing. I think if I was using a denser brush, I'd get too much, and that would require alot of buffing to make it wearable. Using the brush from Flirt!, I don't have to buff at all, unless I add a highlighter. Hope that helps!

Thanks Audrey, that's a huge help. I have a little synthetic skunk brush from Alima that's alot less dense than the 187 that I think would work then! Thanks for singing the praises of Fresh Green Mix early on too. I like it much more on myself than any other light greens I've ever tried.

I hope Dainty and warm soul are repromoted.....I wanted to get them, but ya know.......enough blush for now hehe!!

I kinda hope Nuance is as well, as bought that one and love it!!

It'll be interesting anyway!!

 

[Shadowy Lady]

I want to get gentle and Dainty but can't afford them now. I really hope they come back soon

I agree! Those seem to be the most popular

Those are all of the ones I want!

I want to get the same blushes you have gotten. I have 3, so only 4 more to go!

I am thinking about more MES too - Polar Opposites, Pink Split and Love Connection. I have money for Starflash, but if they don't wow me, I'm going back for more Electroflash and Sonic Chic!

LOL - I usually don't order online often, but I ordered Pink Split today

Next week I will visit the pro store here and will pick up blush Love Thing as well. I love my Pleasantry and Gentle!!

 

[DeweyAnn]

I have mixed feelings about Pleasantry and Love Joy... will Pleasantry be too pink and Love Joy too dark? I am NC/NW 15-20...

You can apply Pleasantry really soft with a kabuki brush and it won't look too pink

 

[Susanne]

I am wearing Warmed MSF with Pleasantry over it today, both applied with a kabuki brush

This is THE perfect summer look!!

 

[thelove4tequila]

YAAAY! I finally got my package about 10 minutes ago.

Wow. Pleasentry looks soo beautiful!!!! I'm surprised how dark Merrily is but I love the color so far. Gentle seems like it would be something I would normally pass but I still think its pretty. I love trying new things I normally wouldn't go for. A last but not least is Nuance, very pretty also but I will have to play with that one to see if it actually works for me. So far they all look great in the pan, but lets see how they will work on my cheeks!

 

[starz]

I have finally received my order of goodies and am surprised at how nice pleasantry looks on. I have never tried pink blushes but this one is beautiful!!

I'm so happy for you!!!!!!

It sucks so much waiting around. I felt so bad for Susanne while she was waiting for her Cool Heat. It makes me sad.

Pretty ladies deserve their pretty products!

On a side note-My freaking 182 (the one I always bitch about) completely fell apart during my last wash. I was washing it and the entire head of hair came out in my hands. WTF?????????? I'm so pissed b/c it was so soft and buffed out my colors so well. I am hesistant to get a new one b/c of the constant problems I had with shedding and, oh yea, the ENTIRE brush falling out in my hands. I am also hesitant to get the 181 b/c I'm afraid it won't be as soft. What do I do?????????

Omg I can't believe it did that on you! I was soooo scared last night when I was washing my brushes, especially the 182 that it would fall apart on me b/c it does shed quite a bit.

I bought the 181SE but I haven't tried it yet and I don't think I will b/c I have no need for it. It is very cute though and SUPER SOFT! Great for buffing blushes.

I only bought it b/c it was cheap at my CCO.

So I might sell the set it comes in (Novel Twist Pearlizer).

 

[rbella]

^^^I know, I always get panicky when washing this one in particular. I thought maybe I had a jacked up brush b/c whenever I complain about the shedding, it seems like I'm the only one with a problem. I'm glad I"m not crazy!!
