Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion
I just got my delivery this afternoon!!! I played a little with everything and I must say I *LOVE* absolutely every single item I got!!! My list was:
Both MESs (super pigmented, sparkly without being a big glittery mess!)
Bite of an Apple (gorgeous pigmented pinkish-coral)
Strange Potion (looks just like the swatches)
Wicked Ways (pinked-up red, pretty opaque)
Innocence, Beware! (awesome pinkish-nude with a bit of sheen)
Dark Deed (sexy deep burgundy goodness)
Toxic Tale (as bright as everyone says, but beautiful... and it also leans pinkish on me so I'm very happy!)
Vile Violet (lovely blue-leaning purple, no problems with chalkiness for me!)
Oh So Fair (surprisingly really pigmented, glowy light pink)
Briar Rose (another pigmented powder, a little deeper and purpler than OSF)
Bad Fairy (I need to see this on but looks awesome in the bottle!)
Truth & Light (this one I also need to play around with more, but the texture is neat!)
That was my veryyy quick-and-dirty rundown of everything. I'm actually heading out of town and won't be back until Sunday, but if anyone's still interested when I come back I'd be more than happy to swatch! Might even be brave enough to post a look or something

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion
I am going to wait for "woo me- light pinky-nude" from the peacocky collection. I bet I will love the new texture way better.
For now, my go to nude is madly creative which isn't even a nude but still pretty haha.
I wish I could see more pale girls wearing Toxic Tale so I can decide on it allready. I don't want to try it on at the store as it's flu/cold season.
By the way I love Truth & Light cooling powder! I love how it gives you an overall glow without seeing any obvious or chunky shimmer particles. I can dust it all over my face as a setting powder and not go overboard looking like a disco-ball. It's very subtle which is also why I couldn't really capture the shimmer on camera. I also love the cool feeling when putting it on.

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion
i have my stuff finally. I had to get some tests done at the hospital and stopped at the store after to grab my goodies.
I liked this collection more than I thought I would. I think all the products are well thought out and the collection is very cohesive. As expected Maleficient was my fave of the four followed closely by Evil Queen.
I ended up passing on the cooling powder. It feels neat but I just didn't get the urge to buy it. I also passed on Dark Deed; it looks a lot like MUFE #48, prob identical. But I did get:
- BOA this is so friggin pigmented and so gorgeous, love!
- Briar Rose I love bright pinks like this and use them a lot
- Bad Fairy Gotta get the one duochrome polish Orly didn't make in their collex
- Toxic Tale so I'm a coral pink lipstick fiend and though I still think this looks like Chanel Genial or MUFE #37, I liked it enough to buy it.
Happy hauling everyone! I will report back when I use everything

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion
I got Resort Life and Wicked Ways. There was only one other person there when they opened. There was also a Fedex delivery person and the MA just stood there and didn't open the door for her until a couple minutes after 10. The same MA looked right at me and didn't open the doors I was in front of even though it was past 10, which is when they open! Ugh, Southcenter MAC employees...

The same happened to me at The Bay in West Vancouver today.
Plus, she ignored me for almost 10 minutes, and I knew the items I wanted way before going to the store.

I'm a pale girl and I honestly really, really like it. I don't wear MAC foundation but I do have MAC concealers in NC/NW 20 and have traditionally "cool" undertones if that helps at all. It leans a little pinkish on me rather than orange but it's still very much a bright coral.

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion
I went to the store to play today, and I love Dark Deed. I am going to haul it next week. I also am going to get a back up of Revenge is Sweet. It looks amazing over Dark Deed. I am pretty sure they are not going anywhere. The counter I went too had most of the VV items on the shelf. I say about 10-15 or each. They are having an event this Saturday, so who knows what will be left after that. Mad at myself for not swatching sinister again. Oh well, later, its not getting any love so it will be around.
I also just picked up the last Push the Edge from the CCO. Perfect, as its in the original pigment container. Its beautiful.

No, the one in West Vancouver. I live in North Vancouver, so the one in West Van is closer to me than the one in downtown.

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion
I got my items today - first in line with my friend.
The MA was sooo funny! LOL. She saw us waiting and was like "10 more mins" with her hands mouthing it and prancing around the store lmao!
We were joking about banging on the glass and some other people around us started laughing (cuz everyone waiting knew how crazy this collection was going to be) - hence going right before they opened!
I ended up with BOA as a back-up and Strange Potion. I didn't like Oh So Fair as much as I thought I would and I really only re-considered both MES' after leaving. Everything else was meh....felt like I could dupe it or it wasn't worth getting.
We walked past the store 2 hours later and BOA was sold out. A girl in line with us actually bought 4 and another 4 of Strange Potion!
I ended up Back2MACing for Pink Lemonade - went outside and laughed when I realized how similar it is to Strange Potion hahaha! Atleast it was "free" right? I've wanted it forever so not a big deal
I MIGHT go back for She Who Dares - they seem much better in payoff than the Style Black MES' and a little more pigmented than some MES Duos or Trios. The sparkle shows up better anyways IMO.
Oh...and to top it off? Utterly Game from FF showed up in my mailbox today when I got home from shopping
Double awesome!
Hope the rest of you girls have fun shopping today! And I wish for a speedy delivery to those who ordered online!
Edit: Oh and the cooling powder was a no go for me
My skin is way too oily to pull off the very sheer shimmer in it. I'd probably look like an oil slick at the end of the day - and my pores would look enormous to boot!

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion
Dark Deed is so the dark lipstick I was looking for since last year.
I bought Chanel Maniac last year thinking it would be "the" one for me, but it isn't - it looks good on Temptalia but definitely not on me. I just swatched both side by side and Maniac is purple-ish, while Dark Deed is more red (I knew that, but still had to compare both).
