MAC - Starflash Discussion

[mezzamy]

erine, what are your thoughts on Smoke & Diamonds? im waiting on it in the mail but i still cant really figure out what to expect. what shade would you call it? does it have a rich shimmer/pearl to it? is it a boring colour or something more special?

apologies for the 20 questions

Thank you

I am really glad you picked those 4. They are most different from what I already have. I am drawn to Grand Enterance and Dreammaker, but I don't need them really. I wear those types of colors on my lids often, but I have so many already. Is Dreammaker anything like Rose Blanc from Strange Hybrid? I am trying to broaden my horizons, and that's why I am liking Mink and Sable and Smoke and Diamonds. I don't have many earthy colors. I really liked Top Hat from the very first swatch I saw, and I may allow myself ONE more shadow and pick up Lotusland cause I think they will look nice together. If these weren't a new finish, I could probably easily pass on them, but between what I have heard here and what my MA told me today about the new finish, I am really excited!

Those are the ones I'm getting clwkerric!

Of course I want them all... Ah how on earth will I narrow this down!? Thank you as always for the great swatches Erine! These all look absolutely beautiful, I can't wait to see how this new finish is.

I haven't been able to get on Specktra much lately and all of these collections are just so overwhelming. I wish these shadows were permanent! Thank goodness that most of the Overrich pigments are or I would be in even deeper trouble. =P

i'm gettin' it. its gorgeous. i compared it earlier to reflects antique glitter.

i don't consider it boring at all. others might.

these all have a shimmer pearl finish. i'd say its falls between frost and vp.

does that help?

i'd say its along those lines, but again, more banana yellow, not so much butter yellow like rose blanc.

 

[erine1881]

as always, i'll post better pics when they're available.

because it was asked. if you're not ready for em, don't look.
