Girl, your blog inspired me to hunt that lippie DOWN! But Sephora NEVER has it in stock!

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion

Sometimes, the place that I live in really makes me laugh. I just called to reserve items, and the MA told me I am the only one who has asked/called about this collection. Maybe I'm just surprised because pretty much everyone here on Specktra is excited, but this is crazy to me!

Also, my counter hasn't gotten their stock yet, but the MA was nice enough to let me tell her what I wanted ahead of time. So, I just reserved Oh So Fair and one of each MES since those are my must-haves. But, I anticipate much more coming home with me when I go to swatch.

I'm really happy I was able to reserve, though. This collection feels like it's never gonna be here!!!

Wow! Glad I could enable

. Is it still available online? Maybe you'll have to order it. The shades flying out of my local Sephora are all the red ones. #15 is my favorite, by far though.

I just saw MUFE #15 lipstick online and it's in stock! I was able to resist the temptation since I already have Violetta l/s.

Indeed. I didn't think that was possible.

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion

I'm not sure if anyone else asked this but does the MUFE #15 look like GFI?

From this collection I am getting:

BOaA blush
Violetta l/s and possibly RIS l/g.

I'll stop while I'm still ahead!

I've purchased tons of make-up this year and need to cut back.

Thus I'm looking for what I consider unique items from collections and these are the things that caught my eye.

Plus Her Greyness says BOaA blush is unique and I trust her judgement!

ok, did I miss something - the 21st???

GFI leans blue while #15 is a true purple.

You didn't miss a thing. That's when I go to the preview.

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion

Shontay - how purple???

Is it like So This Season l/g?

 

[Fiberluver]

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion

Violetta looks so pretty though!

Since I first heard about it a couple of months ago I wanted to get my hands on it.

I think I tried Up the Amp but I have Show Orchid and of course GFI. Is Violetta like UTA?

Not quite as dark and it has a metallic finish.

I'll send you a pic so that we don't completely derail this thread.

Not at all. I like them both, but I'd take Violetta any day.

Not at all. Up The Amp is a MUCH lighter shade than Violetta. Violetta is also way more purple and brighter. Up The Amp has more pink/lilac tones to it; in fact I've seen some people classify it as a pink lippie before.

On my lips, Up The Amp always looks very creamy, but Violetta has more of a (metallic?) sheen to it. Are you familiar with Blooming Lovely l/s? Up The Amp is more in the same color family as that (but of course quite a few shades darker than Blooming Lovely). I personally prefer Up The Amp because I find it more wearable; Violetta is SO dramatic on me.

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion

I love to wear UTA when I have on something blue. The color just pops and is gorgeous. I'm sure Violetta would do the same but I don't own that one..yet

 

[Fiberluver]

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion

Shontay and dreamer246 THANKS! Yes, I have Blooming Lovely - I didn't even think about that one.

I'm still going to get Violetta though.

Shontay, thanks for the pics.!

Yeah I love blooming lovely and I loved Up the Amp in the store. I am happy it's a perm shade so I can pick it up any time.

So glad that you were able to reserve.

Wondering if I should do the same. The earliest I could go to the store is Saturday, Oct 2nd. That is even maybe. I'm going to be out of town. Far, and far away from any MAC.

I can order everything online on 28th, but I hate ordering anything without seeing/testing.
