MAC Veluxe A Trois Collection (August 13, 2015)

[montREALady]

Does anyone know if they are in Nordstrom's right now?  I have a work meeting tonight that will take me right by a Nordie's and I'd love to stop in and see them in person...

No idea, two are online-exclusives though. I forgot about wanting to check these out in store...tomorrow.

Swatches in good lighting for you ladies! If you want comparisons with anything let me know and if I own it I'll do it for you! Top to bottom: QS, Heaux, RR, PT, HT.

Anyone get Richly Revered glass? Just seeing it for the first time on Nordies and it's looking mighty fine!

Its definitely is. I kept on seeing it sell for 50 bucks and up on ebay and instagram. I guess people loved it alot before but for some reason this time its not getting much love.

I don't know if this has been asked... But... What liner can I wear with HT? Just done a lip swatch of it and I need a liner to get HT to work... Here's a pic before anyone asks...

I did try PT and I can see why I wanted it...

I like HT on you! Hmmm. I'm darker than you are, so I'm still not sure it will work on me.

I am going to the counter tomorrow to check out the rest of the collection. MAC has increased the price of their lipsticks to $17 and not the $16 that is mentioned on the first page of this thread, correct?

Correct. MAC is bugging.

Thanks for doing this. Could you compare Quelle Surprise next to Runner, Acai and Rebel? Thanks in advance.

New Heaux is growing on me. It's strangely less shiny now but still shiny to a point. I wonder why?

I am not sure why the price went up. The creativity at Mac is down, customer service is less than desired (most times), the website sucks and they tend to recycle the same colors under different names. %$#@. Does this justify a dollar increase.( without warning)?????????????????????

I still find mine shiny. However, I've decided to lightly coat my lips with Heaux 2 and top with the RiRi Heaux.

Dolly. I bought Quelle Surprise today from Nordstroms. *Fingers crossed*

Really??? $50. No way.

Pretty. I keep thinking I have something very similar to Pillow Talk. 25% of my lipsticks are nudes.

I posted this awhile ago. I got it when it launched at the Bay. It's actually really nice and not brown at all on me more like a dark burgundy.

Because it's August.

Thanks, tbh on Nordstrom it looked dark burgundy is why it caught my attention! Does it look brown on some people?

Maybe just because they do often, but I'm guessing that free shipping and free returns plus returns just generally are responsible. All or nearly all the Estee brands had a price increase recently, though, so maybe not.

Hi Vandekamp! I don't have Acai or Runner :sigh: but I could do it next to Rebel, Fashion Revival, and any other purple berry shades I find in my collection! I'll post it tomorrow. Sorry I can't be of more help!
