Questions About Lure <3

[AudreyNicole]

Just had an awesome live chat about Lure!

Audrey: Hi Andrea! I just had some color questions about the Lure collection...
Andrea: Hey Aurdrey!
Andrea: I would be happy to help.
Audrey: I am trying to order online and am having a hard time
Audrey: I am wondering how Delphic fluidline would compare to blue peep, or lining with Steamy eyeshadow?
Andrea: Delphic is lighter and more turquoise then the Blue Peep. Delphic also has a silver pearlized affect to it.
Audrey: so could it compare to steamy, except in fluidline instead of shadow?
Andrea: Not really. I find them to be very different.
Andrea: Delphic is more turquoise and Steamy is a highly frosted blue aqua with a clean gold shimmery overtone. It is sheer as well. Delphic is more opaque.
Audrey: got ya
Audrey: that helps
Andrea: Great!
Audrey: could you tell me how mancatcher would compare to beautiful iris, and stars and rockets?
Andrea: Manchester is slightly warmer then Beautiful Iris. As far as Stars and Rockets, Manchester is more muted and deeper.
Audrey: ok how about aquavert... is that anything like Brill?
Andrea: Brill is more blue then Aquavert.
Andrea: Aquavert is sort of a combination of Juxt and Brill Eye Shadow.
Audrey: wow, that sounds awesome! I definately need that one!
Audrey: how does nightfish compare to blacktrack and blitz and glitz?
Andrea: Nightfish is slightly different then Blacktrack and Blitz and Glitz.
Andrea: It is slightly softer then Blacktracks with no gold flex in it.
Audrey: does it look grey at all?
Andrea: No, not really grey.
Audrey: ok
Audrey: last one on my list... waternymph...
Audrey: how would this compare to steamy?
Audrey: can you tell i love my steamy?
Audrey: lol
Andrea: It is deeper and richer then Steamy. Again more colour payoff.
Audrey: could they be worn together?
Audrey: or aquavert with waternymph?
Andrea: Absolutely!
Andrea: Both will work.
Audrey: perfect - you have helped so much!!
Audrey: oh wait one more...
Audrey: lol
Andrea: Wonderful!
Andrea: ok
Audrey: Haunting...
Audrey: what shadows would you pair with this?
Andrea: With Haunting try the Manchester Eye shadow with Idol Eyes or a deeper shade in your crease like Blackberry.
Andrea: Click here for the MAC Eye Shadow page.
Audrey: great, thank you so much Andrea!

I am so excited for you to get YOUR stuff!

I have narrowed things down quite a bit, but I think I am going to head to my store on Thursday and see things in person. I know I want Aquavert, and probably Mancatcher. I am expecting to get both Haunting and Delphic fluidlines, but that could change when I see them. Right now, my tentative list for Thursday is:

Mancatcher e/s
Aquavert e/s
Waternymph e/s
Haunting f/l
Delphic f/l
Violet Underground (hope I can still find it!)

The next payday, I am planning to get:
Lure l/s
Goddess l/s
Sea Myth e/s (If I think I need it)
Maybe Nightfish (since I don't have a black fluidline)
Pink Resort TLC

Those lists will probably be adjusted once I see everything though. I want to get the stuff that will probably sell out first since I can't get it all at once. Your stuff needs to hurry up and get to you so you can post swatches!

Is it there yet?

Audrey Nicole... I'm not sure what she is talkin about- but Nightfish is TOTALLY dark grey. its not black AT all.. it is a lot like Slate eye pencil.

as far as delphic being like steamy, imo its a similar family, and the gold/silver difference - as a liner, I dont think that it is something that you are going to notice, unless you are totally looking for it, but that could just be my opinion...

 

[melozburngr]

oh, and why was she calling Mancatcher e/s Manchester?? hmm

Ya know, in the back of my mind, I was thinking, "Mel knows more about the product than this chick!"

Sometimes I do multiple live chats on purpose to see the variety of answers I get, and for the most part, the information I get on Specktra is more accurate - that's why I LOVE it here!

I so wanted to order online in the comfort of my PJs, but I think I am going to have to fight the crowds at the counter tomorrow morning. I want to make sure I get mine before they sell out, and I will be there waiting for the doors to open!

LOL! I never noticed until you mentioned it!

 

[melozburngr]

machester.. heh. the name of that eyeshadow is what is so great about it- MANCATCHER!!! ha ha ha

 

[AudreyNicole]

Here is a swatch courtesy of shank_you on live journal...
Beautiful Iris, MANCATCHER, and Lavender Sky. Mancatcher is pretty unique...

[koolmnbv]

Can someone who already has their stuff tell me if the VP is REALLY Mancatcher as opposed to Aquavert (which is listed as the VP on the MAC site)? I only want to buy Aquavert if it's a VP....TIA!

I did a live chat,but that doesnt say much i guess

One of our Artists will be with you shortly. At the end of this chat session, you may request to have a transcript of your chat sent to you via email by completing our Exit Survey.
Hello. Thank you for your interest in MAC Cosmetics. My name is Dianna. How may I assist you?
Jessica: Hello! i was just wondering if aquavert from the new Lure collection is in fact a veluxe pearl?
Dianna: Hi Jessica! One moment while I double check for you ...
Dianna: Yes, it is a Veluxe Pearl.
Jessica: thank you very much for your help! have a wonderful day dianna

im even more excited to get my Aquavert now

 

[Winthrop44]

Thanks. I do wonder if she just checked the web site though....

Edited to add I just called my nearest freestanding store (which is unfortunately 1.5 hours away

) and the person who answered told me that Waternymph was the VP....?????

 

[melozburngr]

Waternymph is a frost. (iirc) its on my bathroom counter.

 

[melozburngr]

I REALLY want to go back and get the Aquavert.

 

[kimmy]

my MUST HAVES are going to be:
phosphorelle l/g
pink clash l/g
bait l/g
waternymph e/s
mancatcher e/s
sea myth e/s
aquavert e/s
delphic f/l
haunting f/l
man, is that going to break the bank. good thing grad is coming up and i get money from the family for it hahaha! i was talking to the bf this morning about this stuff, and he's plotting something i KNOW it so maybe i won't have to buy it all hahaha. but man, i didn't think i was going to need those fluidlines, but the swatches just hooked (hahaha get it) me.

 

[AudreyNicole]

Might someone be able to swatch waternymph next to steamy? There is a swatch in the haul forum, and they look awefully similar... TIA!

TOMORROW is the day!!

 

[kimmy]

i saw something about a TLC here but nothing on the MAC site...does anyone know what's the deal? it has pink in the name so i'm curious hahaha!
