pics of 10 of the 12 texture l/s

Well now I'm inspired to make a trip to MAC tomorrow to check it all out in person. I really need some new summer colors so I'll see how Ruckus looks. I sure don't have any colors like it, and as you said, it's LE so why not? Thanks!

No problem! I always figure if you can go try it, then risk it! I always do more risky colors when I visit the counter (it's 2 1/2hrs from me!)....because that's the time to do it! Neutrals and such you can honestly guess if they will work or not, usually.

Let me know what you think and if it works for you....it may only be a color for certain people with certain tones in skin and hair

We all know Janice rocks!

Oh my. I'm lemming all except Kooky and Cha-Ching! Baaaaaad news.

foreveratorifan ruckus looks FANTASTIC on you!!
I dont think I have the right coloring for it...It would be pure orangered on me, especially since I have serious pink undertones. It looks fab on you though. More power to ya!

Jeanette which Janice?

I have both flitter and frosti so Ill compare em side by side. They are very very close, as stated before, just frosti has more frostiness/glitter to it...

 

[mac_obsession]

Funny, how light/flash makes a difference in what you see. To the normal eye Flitter and Frosti appear EXACTLY the same color...But when I took a pic, they look nothing alike!
So Needless to say Ill post it in a few minutes!

On me, both Hug Me and Deceptive are peachy-beige- one's a lustre and one's the amplified creme. It was just an observation.

PnkCosmo- Thanks for the suggestion for an amplified similar to Brave. The "white pearl overtone" is another one of MAC's inadequate descriptions, IMHO. On me, it's a match for my natural lip color, but there's no white to it at all.

And this is why MAC needs to post real pics instead of their stupid swatches online! It's impossible to buy a new shade without seeing it in person, which is difficult for those of us in the sticks.

I agree! It'd be so much easier to have actual color pics rather than swatches with descriptions that sometimes aren't that accurate.

Ha.... Why Hug Me don't look like Deceptive on me?

PrettyKitty, yes i saw your FABULOUS picture with deceptive! it's so funny cos hug me and deceptive both look VERY similar on me.. there's only a SLIGHT difference .. they both look like a pinky beige on my lips

i love 'em both!

 

[mac_obsession]

Hug me looks horrible on me...I think l/s, l/g, l/l all look different on people depending on the pigmentation of your lips contour etc...
Its amazing how different things can look on different people.
For instance, subculture l/l lol...It looks AMAZING on prettykitty, and just OK on me..lol

 

[PrettyKitty]

ops:

I have pigmented lips, deep pink, sometimes red. So Hug Me is not enough pigmented on me because its not opaque. Deceptive is opaque so my lips looks not the same.

Molassie is my favourite, I'm wearing it now. Sweet molasses brown the website says, lovely is what I say.
