I don't have Melba!!! Do I need it???

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion

I have to agree with Elegant's earlier post. For me, this is the only major (or should I say- most anticipated) collection I won't be buying online. I almost feel weird. I'm super calm because I know all my goodies are waiting for me on Thursday. Yet, at the same time I'm finding myself still checking out the MAC site. Habit, I suppose.

It's the anticipation of it all that's getting me all geeked.

Every few minutes I refresh this thread to read more posts, and there are always at least 2 or 3 new ones. I almost want to laugh because I know at 5:59pm (most likely sooner), it'll be a ghost town. I'm hoping MAC doesn't get too crazy and they have a lot of stock. Goodluck everyone! At 6pm.........

Unless we want to look like toast, I say we pass.

I'm thinking of maybe buying mixing medium, but is it really any better than fix+?

Even though I went to my pro store a week before To The Beach came out, I still stalked the site. It's exciting. It's our Superbowl. It's interesting to see what sells out first and hoping people get what they want.

Liquid Lurex - Maybe? I haven't tried any of those new dazzle lipsticks, they didn't appeal to me at all for some reason.

Trying to sneak Rebel in there, eh? I see what you did there, missy!

I've bought several lip liners recently. I don't even know which ones to buy now. I hardly use them, but they do come in handy, though. I may just stick to Humid and High Tea since I do have a bill due on Friday.

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion

The suspense...AHH!!

I have to get Bad Fairy np and Hot House (Ive been on a rasberry kick lately) for sure

...Bad Fairy reminds me of the changing leaves of Fall

...

and after seeing more swatches of Mean & Green..OOoh...it looks almost silver (in my opinion) with multi colored shimmer thrown in the mix...maybe some of you are saying "what silver?"...this color is a mystery

I think I can pass on Formidable...though Im cuckoo for anything with teal in it...I don't want to go gaga for too many dark colors and overload on them and be sick of them...

Im really liking Strange Potion...I don't want it too orange though...some swatches of it lean orange...I like it's description of pinky coral...can anyone shed some light on this? enable me some?

I like Briar Rose and Oh So Fair but want to use them as blush...Their $25 price tag to use as just a blush is kinda extreme to me since I rarely wear blush...are there any blush colors from MAC's perm line that would satisfy?

It's definitely not orange. The description is accurate.

I've bought the scarf a few weeks ago from Miss Selfridge. Do you have that shop in the USA?

You definitely should. I could see the sparkle of French Quarter through PTE. It looked so great. I loved it.

One shop here in Germany had a special event for VV, so the collection launched there earlier. The remaining shops follow on october 1st.

@Pinkdollface, Soul Unique, Starsfromhere, Shontay and Elegant-one: Thank you so much for all of your sweet comments on my makeup. I truly appreciated it.

So here another photo with closed eyes. The mua did a purple smokey eye look with Push the Edge pigment on the whole lid, blended with Melon pigment, French Quarter greaspaint stick as base and lightly as eyeliner, Industry powerpoint pencil on the upper waterline and upper and lower lashline and Push the Edge + a little bit Vile Violet on the lower lashline. She did the lashes with Haute & Naughty mascara and used Briar Rose + Her Own Devices beauty powder on my cheeks, and Innocence, Beware! + Resort Life on lips. Hope that helps some of you lovely ladies. =) P.S. Please excuse if I made any grammar or other mistakes, since I'm no native speaker.

I have hooded lids, as well. I've lost count of how many times I gave in and let someone do my makeup, only to have them not understand my eye shape and totally make them look smaller/closed off.

You look beautiful! I'm such a hat & scarf junkie, too! I love it!

Thank you Shontay for your response! I guess this counts as enabling me to get it?

 

[shontay07108]

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion

I need this collection to just happen now. I'm reading comments elsewhere online and my mind is rattled. BOA is trying to make a comeback. I can kinda see myself with my big diva hair and BOA on the cheeks with Strange Potion, oh no...

Yes, indeed. SP is universally flattering.

I'm totally not going for the toast look, so I guess it's out!

I was looking at the mixing medium too but I figure I'll check that out at the Pro store when I go to Vegas next month. I'd love to know what people think of it/if it's better. Inquiring Minds!

Aww bills. They always ruin a good time...like the really, REALLY drunk girl at a party who pukes on your awesome new shoes.

Exactly! I'm just curious to see what's going to sell out first and how long it's going to take.

My pro store is always out of stock on the mixing medium.

I think I'd have to beat that drunk girl with said shoes. Gross.

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion
