Maybe try calling again if it's not been sorted. Some MAC CS people are a lot more helpful than others. You might get more help.

If I were a fan of Cruella I'd choose DMD over Notable and since I'm not I'm going to go to the CCO and pick up Notable. Both are similar and I should have had Notable a long time ago anyway. Thank you for clearing this up Erin!

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion

Hmm - I have Notable and Lovejoy.

Lovejoy has a shimmer to it and Notable is much more matte. They do fall in the same family, however.

I think DMD would fall in the same family as well but there are subtle differeances between all of them.

If you don't have Notable or Lovejoy, you should get DMD.

I think its interesting that there is a comparison between Notable and Raizin.

The way I see it Notable comes of as a plummy shade and Raizin is clearly an brownish-orangey shade.

I've been away from specktra forever... but now VV has brought me back!
yes.gif

Anywhoo... I made 3 separate trips to the counter to purchase VV stuff. I initially thought that I was only gonna purchase 3 things, and I did... but then I went back the next day and bought a couple more, and then more the following day (with one item being for a friend).

My mini-haul consisted of:

Her Own Devices
De-Vil
Cajun
Hothouse (x2... one for friend)
Innocence, Beware!
Devilishly Stylish
Dr. Facilier mirror

So far, I'm TOTALLY in LOVE with Innocence Beware, Devilishly Stylish, and Hothouse. I've never bought a backup of anything in my life, but I'm totally contemplating a backup of all three of those items (if I can find them!)

Here's a quick look at Innocence Beware and Devilishly Stylish (with Cork liner) on NC44 skin:

NO FLASH Attachment 11785


FLASH Attachment 11784


I love the nude lip that this combo creates.

This collection has made me miss my days as a MA at MAC... and has me contemplating going back!

When I rang up they said I could ring again once I'd had an email saying it had been posted, but surely its best to change address before posting it eh? AW... I forgot to put down the door number, hopefully the floor & name will be enough... Crumbs.

Notable is one of my favorite Mac blushes. DMD doesn't compare, IMO.

I'm wearing the green side of She Who Dares right now over French Quarter. I really like it. French Quarter looks so much nicer on the eye than swatched on my hand. So far no irritation from the shadows. Really happy about that.

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion

I'm still very giddy for this collection! I hauled three times and I will not let myself go back for anything else. I tried really hard to cut my list but I ended up getting everything but one item, that I first decided I wanted. Pure madness!!

I wore the fuchsia side of My Dark Magic with Darkly My Dear, Violetta, and Revenge Is Sweet. Love it! DMD is my new blush love! I can't decide if I need a backup. I have never hit pan on a blush but, I really like this one. I usually will wear a blush for a few weeks before I change to something else but I always come back to the ones I love. It's nice to give Vintage Grape a break.

I also wore the purple side of MDM, DMD, Sinister, and Wrong Spell. I didn't care much for the liner I used with Sinister but everything else was really nice. No clue what I will wear today because I hardly put on makeup in the morning but I can't wait to dig into the big black box and see what I pull out!

This collection makes me wish there was a VV II coming next year!

I'm glad everyone is enjoying their goodies! I hope Wonder Woman will be just as great...if not better!

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion

Oddly I never even opened my SWD box till today with plans to wear it to work. I really love the green which is what I put on today. I took someone's advice here who said they used Pixie Epoxy and put that on top of Blackground P/P and it worked great. I used another Fyrinnae shadow to blend the Green into the brow area. I think it's "Elven" something....can't remember and I pressed it but it's just a couple shades lighter then the green. I can't wait to try the blue side another day

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion

Just caught up on the thread! I wore BoA blush and Dark Deed, Brown Script on the eye with a short winged liner to my book and wine club this saturday. Everything looked pretty subtle and natural; and the look was such a hit. I had a great time. The blush was just the right flush of color and the lips look perfect with the Pinot Noir selections we chose. LOVE! Love this collection as you can do natural everyday as well as party/evening looks.

Yall making me want a Clarisonic now! LOL! off to research it and save my pennies.

Oh yeah she also used a gold highlight on the top of my cheeks and I didnt really like that as it brought out my pores

mtrimier thanks for the info. So it was the strobe cream afterall most likely. I couldnt believe how much it just "sat" on my skin afterwards! I almost bought it at the CCO but thought I'd wait to see if it would be greasy. Maybe it was both though....



BEAUTIFUL! thanks for sharing!!!

If you got IB, I might as well haul DMD. Something kinda nude on my cheeks. we'll see.

if you use it directly over the GPS or other base, you should be good, right? I hope so!
can't wait for that update!

I'd rather use a GPS. I know French Quarter can go with the green side of SWD, but what about the blue side? Maybe the blue GPS from DSquared?


do you have Uniformly Blue from Art Supplies. That GPS is a perfect match for SWD. I am going to use it with MDM too. Aside from SB black, its the only GPS I have.

wondering about this as well. i saw notable at the CCO, but really, I don't have anything to compare it too. I would love a side by side comparison too.

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion

Quick question- Has everyone that ordered shortly after launch time last Monday received shipping information? I ordered MDM within minutes of launching on the site and received a confirmation e-mail at 7:04pm... but a week later it is still 'pending' with no shipping information... seems like my mac orders don't usually take a week+ just to ship? Maybe I am paranoid, but I want my e/s

I have never received shipping information from MAC and I get my package everytime. I ordered about 20 minutes after launch and I did get my stuff. I did 2 day shipping though. If you're paranoid, call them. That's what I did.
lol.gif



I still can't get Strange Potion to work for me. I let it settle and still looks frosty/ashy on me. I'm going to try it one more time with a lip liner (not sure which yet) and if it doesn't work it's going back. Any other suggestions?

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion

I have a question for ya'll:

What shades are you using to make MDM and SWD e/s pop?

The MA who helped me with this collection was wearing Gorgeous Gold with the Blue side of SWD and the combo. is lovely.

So what would be good shades that would make the purple and fuschia of MDM pop and the blue and green of SWD?

Thanks!

Woot!!

I'm glad you got everything you wanted!

I really, really, really wanted Violetta l/s and to see it in person but it was gone.

So now I'm waiting for MAC to send it to me in the regular tube.

No prob.

It will still be the same gorgeous l/s.
