Thank you MAC for coming through with the goods! I love, love, love this collection

I've been avoiding this thread forever because the anticipation was killing me but I just came home from the store with blue flame, gba, young punk, bling black, seriously hip, (amourous dg creme) and against my better judgment, VAE.... which i almost hope i will hate because I still do not understand ltd ed skin care.

the store was out of baby goth girl so I'm going to try another tomorrow and pick up blackfire as well. I already have nocturnelle & night violet so this is about the most complete a collection I have ever purchased from MAC. I'm still debating the cremesheen or mattene. is it wrong of me to hope/assume those will most likely end up at the CCO eventually?

2 things missing that would have put this collection completely over the edge: a darkened blue flame-ish np & a black-based blue glimmerglass

(OK maybe those in silver/cinderfella too would have been good too)

I would highly recommend calling and asking them to hold it for you at whatever other counter you can find it at as everything from this collection is flying out the doors.

Thanks. I tried my sample of VAE today and liked it so far, I will give it another try, but looks like im going to have to buy it. Hopefully they still going to have them.

Here is a look I did or the Style Black theme. Now, I didnt use Styl Black product per se... butit was all in the black theme!

Make Up Forever Aqua Black Cream Eye Shadow
Soot Eyeshadow
Carbon Eye Shadow
Soot Eyeshadow
Blanc Type Eye Shadow
Feline Kohl Power
Pitchblack Mascara



Click for larger



Nightmoth Lip Pencil
Midnight Media
Black Knight
Blackware
;D


Click for larger


They looked really cool, but the lipglass made it a little like... too greasy looking. Also, the wear wasn't too great, looking bad after like 45 minutes! Plus, it's he highest maintenance color on my skintone! Every mistake shows 100%. So yeah, that was weird. I want everything to always look perfect so I noticed ever flaw and that really sucked.

Only recommended for white whities that have time to monitor your lips all day. On darker skin I'm sure flaws aren't as obivious so it may work.

Style Black ties with Neo Sci Fi for my all-time favorite MAC collection. I guess I have MAC multiple personality disorder
cutey.gif
Being NC50, the Neo Sci Fi is neutral: me, but slightly better. And forget all this "sheered out' talk

For me, Style Black is 100% rocker chick/goth girl. Y'all gotta come to the dark side
yes.gif


If I were only going to buy one of the lipsticks, I would buy Midnight Media. Night Violet was released in a previous collection; a lot of them ended up at CCO's so it will probably be easy to find one later. Black lipstick, on the other hand, is kind of hard to come by. And Midnight Media has a much nicer finish and texture than Black Knight; it is also a lot more opaque. If I had to guess at the one that will end up at the CCO, it would be the cremesheen. I bought two backups of the mattene.

I agree on the greasy comment: the mattene looks great by itself. But when I added the glimmerglass, I just ended up with great big greasy black lips
ssad.gif
Not a pretty sight. That was also my complaint about the cremesheen.

The mattene alone wears pretty well. And I think that it is very forgiving on dark skin. I'm NC50 and wore it today with no liner; only touched it up twice.

Seriously not seeing any imperfections in the pics

^^ When I went in to grab my haul, the MA lined my lips (then filled them in) with Nightmoth l/l. Then she went over them with Midnight Media before using Nightmoth on the edges of my lips again. Next she put (I think it was "Gel" - a frost lipstick) in the center of my mouth; she said it would prevent the mattene lipstick from streaking.

At this point, it looked great, but for fun we topped it with Bling Black g/g. I think by the time I was done, we'd tried Blackware out on it too.... I personally loved the really shiny look of my lips (but to me that's really...really sci fi. And probably too much for every day.) Plus, with that much product on your lips, it's bound to move. :p

All in all, the look reminded me of "Soiled" lip lacquer. MAC released this years ago...and I picked it up long before I was a MACaholic.
