MakeupbyRissa did an informative video about MAC and how it has changed throughout the years, which is why she no longer works for them.

Anyways, nothing was going to suit my skin tone from it so i wasn't going to by anything.


As I put on my blog:
"Too much indecision, and naivety – especially on MAC’s part. From a business perspective, I think there was too much damage done, and too many voices that cannot be blocked out or turned down, and by not acting quickly enough, it damaged the whole collection."

I just don't see how MAC wasn't aware of this, and if it was, then why it didn't highlight it at the very start. I think MAC was genuinely remorseful, whereas Rodarte appeared to not care - especially with that statement they released!

I'm kinda the same - but I sit on the fence in a way? I never knew about it, but now that I do, I feel quite angry that they even thought they could get away with it.

I have Violetta, it's pretty bright, but very nice. I prefer it to Go For It, much prettier purple (it has much more pink in it).


I wonder if Boots will have an exclusive then? Cause normally, HoF, Debenhams and Boots all have their individual exclusives? Could this be the Sephora exclusive e/s that were promised for the UK in June?
*begs*

I'm gonna get Violetta today.. I really want to try it out with Funtabulous dazzleglass on top

I'm lucky my Boots has a UD stand, but if that fails I can hop on a train to the Bull Ring Debenhams if I'm wanting something that much..

Speaking of which.. I want those eyeshadows! The one thing I just cannot find, which are meant to be around.

In other news, I've just placed my PRO order and I got a bunch of prices for other products too.. will I just include it in a post or make a new thread for it?

The Boots in Kingston has a UD stand, that's the only place around here that does, so I will check it out as and when I can. I will be going abroad soon, so maybe it'll be available at Gatwick Duty Free. I don't know yet if I want the Naked palette yet, I have to see it.

I think two of the new Sephora exclusive eyeshadows are in the new BOS 3 actually. I really want the full size Eldorado 24/7 eyepencil that's been out in the US for ages.

But we don't get everything here, the pink Heavy Metal eyeliner never made it to the UK, so I'm not too hopeful. I really want the Vegan palette though, hope we get that.

I'm not sure about the Naked palette either, I don't want a load of glitter instead of eyeshadows. I like neutrals to be quite shimmery but not glittery.

Yeah I believe there is, although the pinky/coral one is the one I'm really wanting! And as for the heavy metal eyeliner, I was peeved when I found out that wasn't in the UK.. kinda sucks. :S

Mine's the same. I'm forever wanting new things. I've spent so much on make up in the last 3 years and I'm still not satisfied.

By the way, I've just bought a Metal Rock MSF, it cost a lot, but I had to try it. Unfortunately it just doesn't work for me. I look like I smeared mud on my face. Terrible. Looks so pretty in the pan though.

Oh yes, definitely, I want to sell it before it's repromoted! With my luck, you never know. But at least now I know what it's like.

There was always a strong possibility of it not working for me, but I didn't expect it to look this crap. Much prettier in the pan and swatched on my hand then on my face. Oh well, hopefully I'll get my money back.

No, not really, it's THAT dark. I used a very light hand and still it was dark. I just can't see it working on my face.

It would be better for someone darker (I use MSFN Medium for reference).
