MAC X Toledo Collection (Feb 5, 2015)

[Jennifae]

Just try a few different brushes. 109 works well for me. I also found KR shows up more strongly on me over foundation, rather than bare skin. It looks amazingly natural with foundation, unlike so many other blushes.

They show up better on me when wearing foundation. I used the 109 too, and it worked great.

Try them in store.  oke:   But then again the store samples might not be that great because of all the finger-swatching.  :agree:    They show up better on me when wearing foundation.  I used the 109 too, and it worked great.

Yeah, the ones at my counter looked pretty gnarly when I was there the other day.

They look very different to me just looking at T's swatches. Plus, VGV is shimmery, while Oxblood has no shimmer.

Here's a comparison of VGV (top) and Oxblood (bottom). Photos credit to Temptalia of course.

Thank you

. But also, argh, this just encouraged me to buy the gloss, rather than looking for a dupe in the perm line. Here, MAC, take my money; I didn't need groceries anyway.

Yay, happy to hear that! RR is such a gorgeous red, I'm glad I can get alternative to it from this collection.

This got me wanting BBQ l/g. Must resist!

I got my backup KR blush today & the red part is just slightly lighter looking in the pan than the first one I got. Hmmm

I swatched BBQ lg today & it was much more orange than it appears in some pics. Maybe it looks a bit more coral on the lips. I passed

I love Oxblood on you with or without the gloss. It is now my fav nude.

Thank You! It's my fave nude too. I'm loving it.

I wanted the lg too. It just seemed too orange. But, ones lip color can often change that

This collection really caught me by surprise, initially I was only going to get two lipsticks. I ended up buying 3 of the LE lippies, ripe peach, chlorafill liner, and I'm planning to pick up KR, AB, and the chlorafill mascara in store tomorrow. It wasn't love at first sight but the collection slowly grew on me <3

Thanks, everyone!

On my cheeks: MAC mineralized powder in dark, MAC refined golden bronzer, Chanel les beiges in n70, MAC blush in sunbasque with the first blush in the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Blush Palette (the very pink one) layered on top of it

Highlight is NARS albatross with a touch of MAC reflects pearl glitter
