MAC - To The Beach Discussion

[BosSy]

Awesome swatches! Now I'm sure mac is going to empty my wallet.
Yes:
Blush: Hipness
Lipstick: Lazy Day
Gloss: all 3
Cream Bronzer: beach bronze
Powder Bronzer: Refined Golden
Marine life
Sun Rush lustre drop

Maybe:
Lipstick:
Beachbound (looks very frosty a must see first)
Thrills
Rosemary & Thyme
Get-Away Bronze (also looks pretty gold and frosty not sure how it'll work)

Thank you so much Erine!!!
Cream bronzers look gorgeous!

I'm in trouble!

 

[riotlove]

i'm in trouble as well! makes me want it all so much more

 

[sungelly87]

wow now i want both blushes! Get away bronze looks fantastic and still loving Hipness. Also still want Lazy Day. Thinking about Splashing and Sweet&Punchy...

If anyone is interested, here is a link to a youtube video that features In The Buff nail polish. Hope this is helpful!

Thanks Erine for the swatches!
Question: how do you feel about Marine Life highlight powder? Yay or Nay?

TIA.

Thanks for swatching them! I greatly appreciate it. I've noticed when I swatched things on my arm or hand that they look different on my face. I also seem to have more red tones on my face then I do on my arms/hands

I'm wondering is the tones in the skin being different having something to do with it looking different?

Thanks for the swatches Erine! They actually made me scale back on what I want from this collection, yay! Let's see if I can stick to this list...
Here's what I want:
hipness bl, float on by e/l, lazy day l/s, thrills l/s, spashing l/g

 

[Susanne]

Awesome swatches, Erin!

Just one more day to work for me, then I will have a long weekend with four days. Yay for shopping time! Can't wait to get this collection on Friday

 

[shontay07108]

I can't believe Bloomingdales has this collection already! Damn me for going on a shopping spree yesterday! Now I have to wait.

 

[caramel_geek]

All 3 l/g are calling my name

Has anyone compared Easy Lounger l/g to Mimmy l/g from HK collection?

 

[shontay07108]

I'm thinking I may want Flurry of Fun lipglass.

Here I go again...

 

[BosSy]

I'm wondering if Get Away bronze is anything like cheeky bronze msf. Does anyone own these two to compare? And this has probably been asked already but, how does Get Away bronze look on NC25 skin?

I can't wait for the collection to launch here so I can just go and pickup what i want. The longer i wait the more my list keeps changing and growing

I'm also thinking I want one of the lustre drops now... but how do I pick one

 

[kittykit]

I went to the store and picked up Hipness yesterday (it was the last one!). My MA tried it on me again and I actually like it. Now I'm officially done with this collection

 

[lvgz]

mac just hasnt been doing it for me lately. i feel like everything is unexciting.. sorry to be a party pooper. the only one that i like is hipness and i already have that. its beautiful on asian skin tones in my opinion. otherwise, this collection is a bore..

 

[cutemiauw]

Thrills is slowly creeping into my list as I watch this thread

.

But the only thing definite for me is Hipness. I didn't get Ripe Peach because I thought it was too close to Nars Gilda. But I kind of want a pinkier version of Gilda and I think that's exactly what Hipness is. (Correct me if I'm wrong!)

I might have to cross out Float on By if it didn't stay put well enough.

Need to check out Temperature Rising and Flurry of Fun too. I kinda love how orange lips look on me right now.

Thanks for the swatches Erin!

Get A Way Bronze and Splashing lipglass is on my list.
