Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion
Well, even after seeing Temptalia's swatches, I still want the same 3 things - Her Alter Image e/s, Vile Violet e/s and Oh So Fair BP. I am quite content with that and so is my wallet

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion
Definitely getting all three nail polishes now. I've been trying to resist, but they're just too beautiful.
I find that some of the lipsticks look warmer than I was hoping in Temptalia's photos. Toxic Tale looks like almost a dead-on dupe for Vegas Volt and Heartless looks distinctly orange. They haven't looked like that in other swatches, so I'm wondering if it's the photos (or my screen, or my eyes finally starting to go...).

oh it's not your eyes -- I do agree that Toxic Tale is very similar to Vegas Volt and that Heartless has some Lady Danger in it -- but they are not really IRL -- again swatches always look different depending on so many different factors especially if seen on a monitor and not up close and personal -- also, with ls the pigmentation of a person's lips is really important

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion
One side of me is telling me that I have to get something from this collection but the other side of me is telling me to save my money for tartan and the holiday sets(budgets are a Bitch). Why must the collections be so close together? I never realized MAC come out with so many collection so close together.
Anyways my List for this if I had the funds would be
Bad Fairy
Strange potion Lip glass
Vile Violet e/s
Slick Black greasepaint stick

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion
No MES for me. Only the green part interests me and because I have Blue Flame I won't get this for the small green part only. The other one is off too, I have Young Punk and YP seems better anyway.
Briar Rose looks too close to Summer Rose. I have a bad feeling the other two beauty powders lack pigmentation and won't show up. Sad, these I was looking forward to.
I really don't know about the cool powder. I would like to try it but I guess it isn't that special how it looks on the skin, only the feeling and texture in application.
I don't get the hype for Her Alter Image especially how close it is to Beautiful Iris.
I hope Innocence, Beware! won't turn out to be as dry as Temptalia said it is. Toxic Tale seems to look very different depending the person swatching it. I might not have anything like it in my stash so it is very tempting for sure. Strange Potion was surprisingly nice!
From the nailpolishes Formidable! is nicest to me.
So my list is:
- Vainglorious
- De-Vil or Coppering
- Formidable!
- Melon pigment
- Bite Of An Apple
Maybes:
- Strange Potion
- Toxic Tale (if we can B2M for this here like always for other special packaging, I will most likely get this)
- Innocence, Beware!
- Vile Violet
So my lists are the same as in the beginning with the exception that Strange Potion and I,B! came to the place of the MES, and I now know which one of the nailpolishes I want.

not on my skin -- I think it might depend on the skin and it seems that Temptalia's Christine has oily/acne prone skin.. in which case I would stay away from this powder. I really think this product works the best on smooth even skin and if you are a Fix/Spritz person like me, you will get a lovely glowy finish.. so I do agree with Silentstorm

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion
I wish there were some darker skinned ladies who do swatches of upcoming collection, if anyone knows of any blogs, please link me because although the swatches look great, I'd still have to wait until the release to see how it shows up on my skin.
For now still interested in both MES, and a lipstick.

Karen from makeupandbeautyblog have all the swatches too. She's darker, but Temptalia still has the best swatches.
Here's the link:
MAC Venomous Villains: 101 Things You Didn’t Know: Makeup and Beauty Blog: Makeup Reviews, Beauty Tips and Drugstore Beauty Finds
I only want 3 things from this collection:
She Who Dares e/s (I don't know if i should get this, knowing that i'll only wear it a few times a year, like my Young Punk. But the color is gorgeous!)
Strange Potion l/g (I love this since the 1st time i saw it, but i'm trying to not buying more lipgloss)
Bite of an Apple blush (I'm on a blush kick real bad right now. I feel guilty wanting this one as i just bought 6 blushes in the past month)
I don't really need anything actually, so i'm trying to only get 1-2 things, but it's sooo hard to decide which one needs to go
Decisions... decisions...

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion
WOW! MAC is getting the buzz out STRONG on this one! I am surprised, but not really since this is a Disney baby as well.
I like the new spin they put on these villians. Cruella as an original fashionista, Evil Queen as an again supermodel... nice tie in. I loved reading Temptalia's notes on her visit to such historic Disney places!
My list goes like this:
BoA Blush
Both MES The swatch has me finally convinced I need these in my life, & Temptalia saying they are smoother than Style Black's
Wrong Spell OMG, the deep purple is beautiful in that!
Dark Deed
De-Vil shadow maybe.
I'm sticking to it.

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion
As my fiance lay sleeping next to me last night, I was analyzing swatches and revising my list
I decided against Heartless and Devilishly Stylish from Cruella, and Bite of an Apple Blush from Evil Queen. Evil Queen's Hot House lipglass is now only a maybe (but probably not). The new list:
Maleficent:
Dark Deed lipstick
Evil Queen:
Her Alter Image e/s
Vile Violet e/s
I wasn't interested in the shadows before, but I saw the swatches on Temptalia and they just looked so pretty, and now I need them.
Nothing from Cruella now, but I'm happy about that. I don't like Cruella.

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion
Is anyone else starting to feel a bit overwhelmed with this collection? I've gone from wanting nothing but pigments to wanting about 10 items.. and I'm now feeling like I should really cut my list down :S
