Who cares? If you think you'll enjoy it, then go

From this collection, I think I'm most looking forward to Lazy Day l/s. Has anyone compared it to Ahoy There (Naughty Nauticals)?

I might go just to see if they have any fit bare chested men serving drinks!

Ugh

I don't know what I want from this collection! I just want *something* for the packaging lol. I already have Hipness from the Fafi collection and apart from Hipness, I'm umm-ing and aah-ing between Firecracker eyeshadow and Get-Away Bronze blush.

Any thoughts? (I'm nc35-40?)

Thanks

I've been trying to get excited over this collection, but it isn't working.

This is a pass for me!

I just picked that up at my CCO, unfortunately my order for Lazy Day won't come in until like a week from now to compare it to.

Anyone compared it with California Dreamin'? They seem to be the same kind of pinkish, at least online



I ordered Firecracker e/s (love firespot and orangey colors), Lazy Day l/s, Beachbound l/s, and the seahorse powder. Do I need to order Hipness too? I was into MAC around fafi, but not so much blush colors.

I have no idea why I'm not really into this collection....I tried to resist the highlighter...but now I really want it. Think it's completely sold out in the UK though.

But good thing is that it isn't out in stores 'til Thursday, so get there early & you can probably get your hands on one!

I wonder if Lazy Day is similar to:
Nude Rose, Creme Cup, Patisserie, 3N 'cause I have all of those.

Oh no!

From this link i'm majorly lemming Splashing, it's gorgeous. And Flurry of Fun, but I can't buy either. I hope I can find them on MUA!

I think this might be my first post but hopefully not last

(I'm usually the silent viewing & thanking type

)

I was just wondering for those that purchased the cream bronzer in Beach Bronze, is it pigmented? Would it work on NC25/30? Thanks

My list for this collection is growing by the second since I adore anything beach, bronze and golden

Eek! So LG and SP are really close then

. I have LG and also BioGreen and when I tried a look with both I really couldnt tell there were two colors either so I guess I wont be getting SP

 

[banana1234]

i can swatch hipness, coralista, instant chic and coral crepe all next to each other if that is what people would like? i dont have dainty though, sorry!

edit: my sister has borrowed coral crepe so i cant swatch that til she gets back from work but i will have swatches of the rest in a minute

I don't think it has been posted yet, but this collection is up & available(in stock) on Bloomingdales site...
M·A·C To The Beach Collection - What's New - Bloomingdales.com
I wish they had free shipping or a code cause I can't bring myself to spend $8 for shipping for 1 thing

 

[banana1234]

i will swatch hipness and coral crepe later today, i promise!

sweet and punchy looks quite different to lucky green in my swatches, but i swear when i blended sweet and punchy, lucky green and humid on my lid yesterday, it just looked like i'd used only 2 colours
