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

[Knope2012]

I've been taking a MAC break so I've been trying to stay off Specktra for the sake of my wallet! I just got the e-mail, so I just picked up the Veronica's Blush. I'll probably get Betty Bright if I happen to catch it when it launches at the other stores online.

I just got my email 20 min ago. I wonder if the "waitlist" thing was the order emails were sent out?

I also got shipping notification earlier today on my 2nd order (MM LG order), but not my 1st big haul as yet.

 

[LippieLove]

Good morning everyone I feel horrible for those of you with all the PayPal horror stories I hope they can resolve the issue somehow If anyone missed out on anything always remember to stalk the department stores or even get to a counter on the release date

What? At what time did you place your order? This is annoying! I hope you get your stuff at Macy's.

I ordered at 3:34 am and received the cancellation email at 5:04. When I check my order on the site it says pending lol. Weird right? Thanks Mac-Guy I hope I get my stuff too

i didn't order it because i couldn't find any decent swatches

I'm glad Mac actually has the shipping down on this collection bc I swear maybe it was Marilyn but they sorta delayed shipping for a day or so but MAC is on it this time. All my packages have shipped

Betty bright kinda looks like VG nicki 1 to me?

It's been said that it leans more pink. Here's a good swatch (compared to WMS not VGN1).

I used Paypal as my payment method and didn't get any cancelation notice. I did my confirmation email. I placed my order right when it showed up. I don't think there's a problem at least I hope not...

I was

me too, I actually skipped the purple quad (gasp!) and got it instead, although I was pretty much heavy on Team Ronnie for the rest. I hauled:

Betty Bright (but I'm swapping it if it is as pink as I think it is)
BF Stealer
Ronnie's P/M
Betty's P/M
Black Poodle pigment
Ice cream quad

I guess it was pretty balanced after all...I should stick to my list but I am regretting not getting the Spoiled Rich quad and the Magic Spells pigment. I could let fate decide and get them after payday if there is any left with the official release (counting on Belk to have stock, wink wink)

 

[chinablaq]

Hmm is this a color that will look good on all complexions?

Absolutely! Please tell me you didn't pass on it... It's gonna be perfect for Spring!

If someone ordered a Pearlmatte, can you explain what you think the texture is like? I can't really see the texture on Karen/Makeup and Beauty blog--perhaps as a finishing powder it's invisible? Beautyzine said it was a highlighter tho, so IDK. (I sort of wish Temptalia had her swatches, I can see the texture on her pretty well usually) Anyway, any thoughts?

 

[martiangurll]

I hate the eyebrow ring. They could have still made Archie modern without throwing some metal at his face.

oddly, its the only thing I like. And...I got nothing against gingers. I just wish they had picked Ewan McGregor--now he would have been a hot Archie. Okay, he may be a bit old. I 2nd the nomination for Seth! LMFAO
