MAC - To The Beach Discussion

[Hay Mich]

I loved Sweet and Punchy, Hipness and Splashing! FoF and Lazy Day get honorable mention.

The color is very unique and pretty though. I might get it if i can find it at CCO one day.

I always wear mine over a pink base, whether lipstick or liner, and I think that can really change the effect. Over a pink base it just adds a gorgeous (and pretty muted) sheen.

I need to try this. *mental note*

Also, I FINALLY got Shimmermoss (my freestanding finally restocked pans).

(I also got Cork, Woodwinked, Tempting, and Naked Lunch, plus Girl About Town which I am OMG IN LOVE WITH.

)

I'm still loving this collection even though the hype has died down and we're all moving onto the late summer/fall collections now. This is the first collection I REALLY got into - it was a fun feeling.

wore marine life today, and no it doesn't bother me to dip my 131 brush all over it at ALL!
i finally actually made it 'to the beach' today. my son snapped a pic of me shopping in the CCO at the beach outlet stores, and since i figured several people have never been in one, here is a shot of one of the mac shelves. notice the pink row on the bottom shelf: heatherette es palettes

^ Wow, my jaw dropped! Your CCO has Heatherette stuff? I'm jealous!

My CCO doesn't have much.

Happy "To The Beach" day! You have a very sweet son.

 

[nursie]

hehe i can imagen not wanting to use the ML powder. i have two of them and i find my self using only half of it to save some over spray.

 

[peachsuns]

^ nursie, that's so cute. I love it! Very good family indeed.

Wonder if one day, the TTB stuff will hit the CCO. Well, I'm still loving this collection a lot. Today, I wore Firecracker for the first time with Float on By. It looked very summery.

Thanks so much for the CCO pic! I've never been to one before (obviously, because there aren't any here), but I would so love to pop into one of them.

We don't have CCOs here as well. Please give us some!!

i love cco's... just wish we had lots more in the uk! although i guess it gives me things to look forward to when i go to the states! i get super excited!

and heatherette stuff =

 

[peachsuns]

^ You girls should have CCO in your area. You may not always find what you want, but it's still a fun place.

I would go there more often if those new collections were not eating my wallet.

Yes, heatherette stuff!

 

[LMD84]

i think that it is because outlet malls are not popular in the uk for some weird reason. which is why we only have like 4-5 of the things! totally sucks because i love outlet malls!

I really have no idea why they're so unpopular! Great things for reduced prices?! What's not to like! I wish we had more

The closest CCO (since the flood in Nashville :boo

, is 5 hours away. I was having my sister go for me, but then she got banned...for spending the limit twice...wth?!

 

[jpohrer]

My Nordstrom restocked some of the items, so I got Temperature Rising, Life's A Breeze and Lazy Day. The artist did a beautiful look on my lips- Subculture to line, Temperature Rising to fill in the lips, Lazy Day, and Easy Lounger! Life's A Breeze looks great with all my cooler pink lipsticks!
