Well I look at makeup as art so let ur artistic juices flow haha... Be creative, if a lipstick is too pale for ur tastes u can always add a bigger rim of liner to tone down the lipstick once it is applied and blended. Liner makes for a more flattering transition for many using light or bright shades. For example many WOC will use Cork or Chestnut liners in varying amounts to line and shade in their lips before applying Naturally Transformed since it is considered pale in comparison to many darker skin tones... Cork, Spice or Mahogany liner will make for a more flattering transition for many WOC using Tropic Tonic due to its bright boldness. I personally feel that Whirl lipstick looks better on me with some definition from a darker/richer liner (Cork) since I have only a slight Cupid's bow, where women with a defined Cupid's bow or fuller lips may not need a liner... Some women like to completely fill in their lips with Nightmoth before applying Rebel or Heroine which creates a totally new color! It's all about personal preference, need and lastly creativity so have fun with it

It's not user friendly at all and I wish they'd never changed. Of course it's going to take some getting use to but I feel like the previous layout was much easier to navigate and I could find what I wanted. This one is just confusing.

I saw on instagram that Mac is taking $10 off $50 purchases, and $20 off $100 purchases, plus giving away samples.

Just came here to say that Stone looks pretty crazy on me, lol. It doesn't go on very opaque and my natural lip color comes through. I guess I could try a liner, but don't really feel like spending another $16 to try to make it work.

Hve you tried using your powder foundation or setting powder as a base then put the lipstick over it? I do this for Toxic Tale & it looks so much better. Stone looks like a grayish tone to it so it only looks good on a few people

How are people liking MR? I am very interested in it since DGAF from Melt was discontinued. They are probably not comparable, but I wanted to see what everyone else things. Looks like it is sold out on the Mac website. Does anyone know if Nordies will be getting it?

Thanks, I'll try that! It's such a unique color and it looks so amazing in a lot of the pics I've seen so I really want to love it. I swiped it on thick when I first tried it to get it fully opaque and my brother told me I looked scary. He's 8. I scare children with that lipstick.

BTW, i messaged MAC using their contact form with specific issues about the website (and i didn't say i hated the site, but i do). I hope they clean up the overly-busy website design and make it user friendly, because right now it looks a mess and is a pain in the patootey to use.

Also i had 4 items in my shopping cart that were there the day before the switchover - they were "Goodbyes". Now they're not in my cart and i can't locate "Goodbyes", and i used their "Search" function. Anyone know where "Goodbyes" went?

I'm beginning to really like Whirl as a nice low-key lipstick for colorful eye looks like with today's shimmery jade eyeshadow as eyeliner look

I'm liking MR! I'm lining with Masquerade eye pencil from Prestige n it keeps its crip... I don't have DGAF but it seems it was a purple tinged blue and MR is a blue tinged purple IMO... It's brightness is definitely downplayed in photos so try before u buy haha

DGAF on top matte royal on bottom, this is the original blue DGAF not the blurple one, matte Royal is slightly more purple but they are fairly close only thing is matte Royal is a little patchy on me.

Finally made it to the store! Whirl was a chocolate pudding disaster and they didn't have Mehr

But it's ok, bc I just ordered it online

I ended up just getting D for Danger, and ohmigod it's amazing!!!! Try to maybe get some pics up soon!

cupcake28 · Jun 10, 2015

Yes, I agree! Stone is my favorite look on you. Super cute!

I just spoke with MAC customer service and the lady told me that they have gotten numerous complaints about the website. She said the reason why it is so bad is because it is not finished. Someone at MAC made a bad decision to roll it out to users unfinished. That is why they are giving the $10 off $50. She also said that it is painfully slow for them to use to even take phone orders. She told me to call corporate directly to express concerns 1-800-387-6707 option 8. I don't have high hopes that they will care if many of us call. But at this point they need to know that they've made a terrible mistake.
