MAC - Sugar Sweet Discussion

[xbrookecorex]

Do we not have a swatch thread for this yet? Either way, here's the repromote colors I have:

And this was my old comparison of Aquavert (L) vs Warm Chill (R)

Look how Springy all the colors look, yay!

Looks good! It doesn't look too deathly white at all!

$17.50 for those tri-colored lipglasses!?! Count me out! What is up with MAC and all of these expensive lip gloss type products? I bet that a bunch of those are going to hit the CCOs.

Did I imagine this, or did someone say that the amount of product in these glosses is even LESS than the Dazzleglasses? Because I'm telling you, every time I use my Dazzleglass it visibly goes down like a centimeter!

I think that someone said that in reagards to the creamsheen glasses but I am not sure. I don't think that we know how big (or small) these are yet.

I don't get why everyone is getting all grossed out by the tri-colored lipglasses? If anything, the effect will probably be lost by the third application and everything will have mixed.

Never just a lipglass by the color in the tube.

I totally had seller's remorse and had to get another one. But now....I have buyers remorse. Oops.

That's the thing with us OCDers though...it's a tri-colored lipglass. Its original intent was to have three colours. If the colours mixed together...oh the blasphemy! OCD nightmare! Add to the fact that it's in an ugly square tube and...yeah.

lol I realize in the end it's the same gloss, but that would still bother me so much. If it was a really gorgeous colour I guess I would suck it up.

i'm broke so i'm going to pass.

Why are there so many tri color haters?!?!?!


Come on. Someone has to be interested in at least one. Yes, no?

 

[cupcake123]

Ah, so happy to see so many new pics and swatches. OMG, you guys just make me want, want, want to buy everything! Okay, to make the extremely long wishlist short, I want

All the shadesticks
lollipop loving l/s
1 msf if it is dark enough to use as a blush

and most especially the item with the name cupcake in it. I don't remember what it is or what color it is but I want it because it has my name in it and I love cupcakes!


Elaine, you look hot in that dress and I love your hair.

It sounds like a very hard OCD to maintain, elegant. Do you wear gloves, or bring a cloth to wipe off fingerprints?

I agree, someone has to love them. But they're not for me. I find that they look weird, although I might change my mind when I see them IRL.

I don't find the square-ish tubes attractive too.

Oh wow, Elaine looks hot in that dress! (although I think a red lip would totally vamp up the outfit).

I'm going to get at least one and I actually like the square shaped tube.

So now I don't feel like such an idiot! I knew I read it as PENNY

 

[thelove4tequila]

I just may be the black sheep of this collection. Don't throw stones at me but I don't see what's so great about Lollipop Loving. Its waaaay to sheer for me and it just sits in my lippie drawer untouched.

Well, to each her own I guess.

I'll be banking on reviews from the people who buy the gloss; if it's good, who knows, I may even end up buying all 4 of them.

Specktra enablement is the most powerful of all.

 

[thelove4tequila]

What the H.E. double hockey sticks!! Why would they name the last shadestick PENNY while all the others have cute, delicious names?!?!?!

 

[gigiopolis]

THANKS BUNNY!

Oh my, Refined MSF has my name all over it. Tan/peach/coral!! But also, I'm thinking of Perfect Topping. I've never really used a cool-toned blush before because I'm convinced it won't look good on me (I assume it's more cool considering the lavender), but since there's peach in it...I think I could give this one a go!

Actually, this whole collection, upon seeing the colour descriptions, is drawing me in. I looooove anything peachy or coral!

The square-shaped tubes aren't unpleasing to the eye, I think it sort of doesn't work with the collection as a whole. When looking at the product photos I feel like they should be a part of a different collection, since the square tubes look quite modern and sleek, which clashes with my idea of this collection: delicious, cute, fluffy and soft.
