MAC x Archie's Girls (Betty & Veronica) Collection Discussion (February 2013)

[KelseeBrianaJai]

You're probably right, but honestly I've had really good luck with strong color coverage from MAC mascaras the past couple years. It's easy to get my lashes nearly as brilliant as those in direct light with that Wonder Woman blue Opulash in particular, plus much less clumpy (although the clumpy look has its charms too). I wish my local Pro store wasn't such a PITA to go visit, because I would looooooooooove to mix me up a batch of true red mascara. 'Used to have one in the 80's that was one of my all time favorite eye products!

I just googled red mascara and it's very sexy!!!

I've got green eyes, so red would make them really pop. I've got that eye-safe red pigment from Stylishly Yours that's begging for the mascara treatment.

The burgundy zoomlash from beth ditto is pretty excellent for now, though, especially with Dark Diversion.

Don't know if anyone has posted this, but this is a mac artist using the navy blue color from one of the quads! They even do a fast close up of all 4 shadows!

Here it is! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zdS5jf8VxDs&feature=g-u-u

I like it! I have so many neutral eyeshadows...they are such a weakness!

I don't know much about what's MAC Pro only... Is Lash Mix a base for mixing one's own mascara colors?

'Cuz i'm just imagining what colors i could make with a mascara base and MAC pigments...

That's what I do, hehehe

Do you think that mascara would show up on dark lashes?

What mascara?

While we are on the coloured mascara topic..... Does anyone know of any waterproof coloured mascaras? From any company? I love blues, purples and burgundies but I can only wear waterproof mascara because I tear up crazily whenever I laugh or get excited, and I'm usually pretty excited or amused so.....

 

[Prettypackages]

I was referring to the blue one.

 

[aradhana]

i like that blue liner/shadow thing....but my guess is i already have some products that'll give me that look....

i think if there's coloured mascaras with this launch i'll probably try one out. i think i slept on that launch where there were a whole bunch of coloured opulashes....was it big bounce? anyway, not again!

Gorgeous! Thanks for posting!

No prob! I almost passed out when I saw it...I am ridiculous haha!

I found these photos from London Fashion Week of the Archie Pigment -

Frosted Saint Germain Lips with Pigment

Beautiful! I agree with MAC Guy very 80s!

I'm not sure what's available on the market; however, you could always top any coloured mascara with the Anastasia Lash Genius Waterproof Topcoat. It came out this summer.

I have the same problem :S Cold weather and/or wind will also make my eyes run so

I use the Double Fix´ Mascara from Clarins and is super happy to have found it
This mascara has no colour and keeps any mascara in place the whole day.

Wintertime in Norway is this mascara and the setting-sprays from Skindinavia my "holy grail" products.

There's a very nice blue one from Dior. It's the DiorShow Waterproof one:

I think you can get most of the Dior mascaras in a blue shade. I got the DiorShow Waterproof one in blue and I love it. I have black lashes but this blue one gives me a subtle hint of blue. It's quite visible and lasts all day without flaking or smudging.

There's a Lash Mixing Medium. I think it's a Pro product.



Thanks! I'm planning to head to the local MAC Pro shop next week, so i'll be on the lookout...
