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

[GlamQueen21]

Maybe it doesn't apply to the product that you're ordering.

The E-mail was in reference to Valentine's Day and featured lipsticks & nail polish. I just tried it, selected a lipstick and the pop-up said you qualify for overnight shipping. I then added an item from Archie's Girls and got the same message, w/o ever putting in the code. BUT.....when I removed the lipstick the code was invalid.

Oh ok. That makes sense now. I have called MAC to place a phone order of the Veronica's Blush Pearlmatte and will be looking out for the confirmation e-mail of when it's shipped.

My package containing the pearl mattes arrived today. Both of them are awesome!

Flatter Me feels natural on my skin, and when worn it looks like my face is refreshed; pretty sweet imo. Veronica's Blush gives a little bit of a pinkish glow for me, and it's so beautiful when worn. I didn't get a pin though, but I don't mind.

I can't wait to try out the lipsticks, lipglasses, and Cream Soda tomorrow.

Vampycouture just posted a wonderful detailed review of the Nars Reflecting Powder in that thread! You should read it.

Aww..thanks a bunch, Elegant! I had to share because I was so excited!

 

[Medgal07]

I need to start getting home earlier. All of my good lighting is gone. I was finally able to get one picture that looked okay.




This is me wearing Prom Princess, Strawberry Malt, the new NARS light reflecting powder, Veronica's Blush, and the Glinda Palette.

Looking GREAT. Hope you're feeling as good as you look!!!!

My delivery is expected to be here today I only got dlg and bb but I can't wait, I went to the store right now and saw my ups guy grabbing lunch lol I wanted to tap him on the shoulder and say "mr ups guy u have a very important box in ur truck I need can u get it for me" for now I'll have to sit here and wait

This is hilarious! I so would have done that, poor guy tho he was at lunch, ahhh the things us makeup addicts do.

 

[erine1881]

Mac must've ran out of vanilla sent for kiss and don't tell lipglass.:haha:

I didn't get K&DT, i got SS. But still, no vanilla

Erine1881, Elegant One or someone who knows what I look like, I want to pick one item from this collection, preferably a lipstick or a blush...which lipstick or blush would you recommend? wow, I hadn't posted in a MAC collection thread in forever....

Ronnie Red for sure! Then maybe DLG if you like those shades. For a blush - Prom Princess XOX

reds always look good on you,but I think the Veronica blush

:agree: Saadeh! You HAVE TO GET RR and PP. no doubt about it! :winkiss:

:amused: thanks! I'm sure that erine1881 & MAC-Guy could explain it much better than me. At least it can help a little

I can't remember where i posted the difference in each finish of all the powders :dunno:

 

[Medgal07]

2 of my boxes got here today. I got mall madness, and strong woman (plus an empty palette for some depots). My hunny kept making fun of me because I was "so giddy", LOL. I'm hoping to get everything else by Friday.

That's funny right?

They get giddy over sports and tools. Enjoy your goodies!

 

[hwdsprincess]

I don't know if you guys care but Grey friday has been restocked lmao. I don't know what's up with all these 2-3 month later restocks lmao.

Lmao wth??? Random, I still haven't even worn mine lol

 

[hwdsprincess]

:lmao: That would border on "UPS GUY" harassment :lmao:  I hope you got it & I hope you like DLG & BB.

:lmao: Ugh he's still not here, hopefully he's not stuck in a bathroom after his lunch I NEED my box!!!!

 

[Medgal07]

I collect heart shaped things too! Every year, around this time, I get so excited because all the stores have their Valentine's Day things. I'm wearing pink heart earrings today

Yay for heart collectors! Everywhere you turned at the Archie's Girls Event last night you saw someone with heart shaped jewelry. I wore gold hoops with gold heart shaped charms. Today it's Onyx and gold dangling hearts

My package arrived before noon today. I haven't tried anything on yet, but i've looked 'em over to make sure they're all there...
I only ordered Boyfriend Stealer lipstick, and Mall Madness and Feelin' So Good lip glasses from Archie's Girls.
But i'm going to my local MAC tomorrow AM because, after seeing everyone's photos and reading your posts, i want to try on Cream Soda blush, just in case i... uh... need it...
I'm trying to be strong and not get Veronica's Blush Pearlmatte. It's perfect, but i'm holding out for the two in Baking Beauties in April.
I promised someone a picture of Mall Madness compared to Funtabulous which i'll do tomorrow after my MAC attack.

 

[Medgal07]

I love both lipsticks on you---pretty!!!

From yesterday; Basically everything Veronica! Spoiled Rich, Petrol Blue, Boyfriend Stealer w/ Mall Madness, Veronica's Blush and Prom Princess.

Then later I just had to try Ronnie Red, which I love! Well really I loved everything!

 

[hazyday]

Dodged a bullet didn't ya? :sweat:   :haha:

I sure did!

 

[Reddimples]

Tomorrow's the day! Gonna head to Macys before class. I changed my mind on my list again, and will only get lippies. No blush for me.

I'll be there bright and early as soon as the doors open. I wonder if there will be a crowd (probably). I just wish that Macy's sold the brush set. Getting it from the MAC store is not an option for me, asI'll be using some gift cards.

 

[BBmorgan]

Did anyone see the hearts start to wear off on the brushes yet? I just want to know if I should maybe put some clear nail polish on them before I wash them and use them

 

[kimibos]

Kimibos! Looking Good there. Enjoy your goodies!

i will tomorrow, ahhh i cant wait.

 

[Medgal07]

Awww so cute! I see you're laying your brushes flat to dry, I used to do that too, but I bought the brush tree from benjabelle (?) and I am in love with it. Every time i wash my brushes I keep telling myself, WHY DIDN'T I THINK OF THAT! lol

The brush tree is awesome, and a genius idea. I've never had issues with laying my brushes flat but the brush tree may certainly extend their quality & life span by helping to keep water out of the ferrules.
