I agree with Susanne TamEva, you should try Nylon

Nylon was in the first haul I ever did in March 2005, along with Satin Taupe, Greystone and Electra e/s, and it was the first e/s I ever hit pan on

I'm glad it is coming back - it made my skin sooooo smooth. Baby's butt smooth...although I could do without the heavy fragrance.

Sounds awesome! I can't wait to play with the Style Black collection.

Yes, these do stain washclothes, so don't use them to remove it. I recommend using this, along with the mask, in the shower to avoid damaged towels.

OMFG Tanarama was my very first MAC purchase!! Back in '03 I think

I loved that lippie, it was fun while it lasted

But somehow as I got older and wiser it just didn't look as cute on anymore...can't figure out why

i bought night violet mattene which comes out with this collection. it's a repromote which is how i managed to get it. it's very sexy! feels great on the lips and it's a really deep plum colour. but if you smudge it with your finger a little it lightens the colour to a more wearable dark berry colour.

it's gonna look hot during the winter months on nights out

pleased i bought it

How different is it from Cyber lipstick?

Haha screw that. I want all the lipsticks.

 

[LMD84]

Guilt by Association reminds me of Black Ore solar bits...is that a true interpretation?

 

[SierraMascara]

so the greasepaint stick has purple in it? or is that two products layered? it looks gorgeous.

I just asked pumpkinangel & she said that is the greasepaint stick all by itself:] It's truly gorgeous!!

 

[Mabelle]

really? i thought it was supposed to be a creamy black.

isnt there a purple one coming out in dsquared?

 

[kabuki_KILLER]

Gilt by association looks phenomenal. **nod** If I were only to get one eyeshadow from the collection, that would be it. I feel it's the most unique. I wonder if I can fake the effect of some of the others...maybe not. But I'm getting the Gilt by association for sure and definitely Bat Black CCB (is this one safe for use on eyes? I know some of the CCBs are not).

@LMD84: I do plan to at least try them all!. If I like one lipstick better than the others, I'll probably just get two (or 4) haha. The matte black seems very practical for layering of lip looks.

 

[Susanne]

The MES look hot!

^I agree!
