MAC - Venomous Villains Discussion

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion

my FOTD turned out pretty nice today, on the eyes it was Silver ring all over the lid, Vile Violet in the crease, and Seedy Pearl on the inner corner and tear duct. Cheeks were Summer Rose and lips were Viva Glam Gaga with Revenge is Sweet on top.

^Exactly!! I totally agree with AndSparke. You added a bit of humour to it as well which is refreshing

I'm going to try SWD tomorrow

How did you place the colors you used?

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion

I love you all, thank you! It took me forever to get the idea going, as I didn't want to make it too kitschy. I have 3 more trial posts to go, culminating is a gallery post with a total of 92 pics (which shows each product from every possible angle).

(Is a bit obsessed)

I did the straight up green over UDPP on the lid, a little of the blue in th crease along withe Freshwater, and put the green over Greengrease as liner on the top and bottom lashline. Pure love.

I didn't like Innocence Beware or Devilishly Stylish, I guess I'm not meant for nude lips. Going to return them along with the prolongwear foundation. Good thing I liked everything else though.

When I got to my Nordstrom's counter...they had everything I wanted in stock except for SWD. But they told me that they could order it for me from the warehouse and get it shipped to my home! My MUA also suggested I just add everything else from my list to the order so I could get free shipping (something I regret right now b/c I'm so anxious to play with the goodies). So I guess they have some extra stock in their warehouses?

I checked up on my order the other day and apparently some of my items are coming in from other Nordstrom stores in the US--lol, basically I'm getting 3 different shipments (but no extra charges). I don't really understand how the system works but as long as I get my goodies I'll be happy!
So yea, you might want to check with your counters to see if there;s any other way you can get the items they are out of stock in.

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion

I tried an odd experiment today that probably only NC15-20 gals like me can do: I wore Truth & Light as a foundation.

No, seriously. It actually almost works. It doesn't quite give me as much coverage as my Meow or Lumiere foundations, but it looked surprisingly natural and gave me a subtle glow. And I think it's that subtlety that makes it not work as well as a normal highlighter.

I've been thinking about dusting it all over my face because it's really subtle, like you said. It's not obnoxious or shimmery. I think if you use it as a highlighter it's better in conjunction with another product like a blush. On it's own, I imagine it would fall flat.

Finally got my black box in the mail today! I just got My Dark Magic and BOA blush...I'm happy with both

Uh - what is the dab and smooch method?

I'm in the 15-20 range,and I was using it as a highlight on it's own and I could not even tell it was there. It just didn't add anything for me. I returned it.

Hopefully you can find it someplace else. It's really worth hunting down. Trust me. Vegas Volt, Morage, whatever else is nothing like TT.

There are many ways to manipulate TT without really changing the color too much. You can blot it, add a clear gloss, use a soft brown or neutral liner or in my case, a red liner.

I will do this tomorrow and throw on my Madonna t-shirt. Pictures will follow.
