MAC - To The Beach Discussion

[Princesa Livia]

I love the face charts! But when I saw Sand and Sun, I especially 'OOhhHHhh'ed!

*drools*

And its such a coincidence the products used in this look were on my initial list! I'm definitely getting them now! Well I'll have to think about the cream bronzer

... judging from the face charts, this collection is gonna kill me

Me too! I can't stop staring at them. I was on the fence about Sand And Sun e/s, but after seeing the facecharts, I definately want it. This is such a great summer collection!

OMG, me too! I'm gonna be in serious trouble with this collection! I can't wait for this to be released. My bank account however, is doing just fine waiting.

Isn't there one missing?

I'm pretty sure I saw a facechart using Shimmermoss, but I can't
find it on the website

I am not 100% sure, but I think that there are additional charts in the update books that aren't included on the website.

Rosemary & Thyme: this is actually my favorite! That means I need the e/l I guess. I know it's perm but the packaging just makes me want to buy it.

 

[lovesongx]

I already have Humid and Shimmermoss, I've just ordered Hipness, Refined Golden, the body oil, Sun Rush lustre drops and the 130 brush. I want the 131 too but it hasn't been stocked yet for some reason. I think I'll drop into my local store on Friday and compare it with the 188 anyway.

 

[Flaminbird]

I think all I'd like to get are three things

1. Luster drops but I've never used those before so not sure how they'd look one me
2. Firecracker
3. Sweet & Punchy but how close is it to Pagan/Bitter/Rated R???

 

[MzzRach]

I think I am going to skip this collection entirely. I have enough bronzer to last me 10 lifetimes (seriously, I have a collection of bronzers) and I have enough in my collection that I can dupe the looks. I'm good.

I really, really want Hipness, but I have a ton of blushes already. It's getting ridiculous, especially when I consider what is in my pro kit.

*stays strong*

here's the link of it:
M·A·C Cosmetics | Eye Kohl

it's an eye kohl, looks more green in person, once again MAC swatches suck!

Colorwise it is very close to those three. Bitter is very poorly pigmented in my opinion and it comes off matte as well as Pagan where Sweet & Punchy is shimmery and well pigmented. Rated R on the other hand looks like a very close dupe. I didn't take Rated R with me to the counter to swatch but I still think they will look the same when on.

Rosemary & Thyme is perm and available - I actually swatched it a few days ago. It's a pretty color.

(But I too want the pretty LE pencil..

)

 

[banana1234]

i see it in that link, but i cant see it on the uk site.. weird! i'll get it anyway

Might be because they want you to buy the LE packaging and took the original off the site. I'm sure you can find it at a store/counter in its original packaging.

it looks like there's some pearlyness to the white color on the pencils! and of course the coral reef pattern is just so cute!

So... I was going to skip this collection.

And then I was just going to get the Life's A Breeze lip liner (and I still am).

But now I want Firecracker and Sweet & Punchy... and Lazy Day lipstick. I should of just stayed away from this thread

 

[GlamYOURUs]

Um WOW@ the face charts!

I think I am going to DIE! This collection is so gorgeous!

You know something, I have all the teals in the world but I don't have shimmermoss? lol Is there a dupe for it in MAC, perm or LE?

 

[MzzRach]

Monica, Shimmermoss is perm, so if you don't get it with this collection, you can get it later.

Someone correct me if I am wrong, but I believe both Shimmermoss and Humid are perm.
