I'm having to apply it over Corn s/s to get it as bright as possible. I still like it, but Bright Sunshine is my fav hands down.

Also, does everyone but me love On a mission? I just think its looking really blah on my cheeks...maybe I expected something else except this plummy warmth. IDK.... |

Actually...I haven't sorry...I don't even remember...I wasn't planning on posting it...I only snapped it to see if the Bronzer looked too orange on me.
The blush/bronzer and Pink Fish TLC on the lips is all I remember

Hello ladies!! I picked up Purple Rite and Fierce and Fabulous yesterday. What liner are you guys wearing with Purple Rite? I know one of the face charts uses Pink Treat but, I have never believed that line looked anything but bad on me. Thanks for your help!!

hai ladies
so a one of the comments up there reminded me i meant to share this with you guys on friday, but it completely slipped my mind!
the district manager for MAC is a regular customer at our starbucks (i amost flipped my shit when she first told me, but i digress).
anyways she knew i was super excited for Style Warriors and she asked me if i got it. i told her i got almost everything, but i was having issues with Bright Future and Vibrant Grape and their lack of intensity, and how for the color to show i have to either pack it on or put it over something else, and the shadows themself were chalky/linty.
and she AGREED (which surprised me because i'd expect "zomg maybe you got a bad batch," but she was completely honest).
so she told me that yeah those two colors in particular are hard to show up and she has to wear them over a PAINT. she was wearing Bare Canvas paint and applied Bright Future over it (and it really did look intense on her). i told her that my eyes are sensitive and tear up often and i actually had Bare Canvas paint and whenever i wore it my eyes would sting so bad that i'd have to rub my eyes until my makeup wore off. her reaction to that was O_O.
so yeah.
those two colors really do suck in the intensity dept, unfortunately. i mean, they're great to have and everything especially if you have to right stuff to accompany them, but it was still disappointing... ESPECIALLY IF YOU CANT WEAR PAINTS :-[ but for anyone having issues with them, before you return them i guess invest in paint/paint pots?
just a little heads up
PS. i didnt know how much you could cross-post links and stuff so i'm just going to say i have a Style Warriors-inspired FOTD/tutorial up on specktra and the youtube page (located in my signature) if anyone wants to check it out

I wore bright future and vibrant grape over soft ochre paint pot and it was very intense.

D'oh! I forgot I also have Corn s/s and Cash Flow p/p. But I'm kind of fixated with this idea of a green base. I might try Bright Future on top of Chartru paint as well. I'm really excited by this! I also need to get a life... lol
pnuttbuttajelli - Thanks for the info and tip.

I finally got to see Style Warriors in person today and I am underwhelmed for sure. I am not sure if either blush will do anything for me, or even show up for that matter. I still don't like Refined Golden and I actually think that Solar Riche is prettier, but I HIGHLY doubt that will work for me unless another NW45 can tell me differently. I have already crossed the Lustre Drops off of my list. So it looks like only 2 or 3 eye shadows for me. Oh well. More money in the pocket for other things.

^^I feel you on the blushes ( I'm also NW45) seems like they wouldn't work. I'm tired of going crazy for products cuz there LE. As for the lustre drops I have oily skin so not sure they would work for me as well. But I'm digging the shadows and glosses...

Yeah I hear you. And I feel like I'm the only one whose not to keen on the packaging. I have an appointment at the MAC counter on Thursday so I am going to try the stuff on, but I have maybe 45 or 50 blushes, so if these don't "Wow!" I will most def. pass.

I bought Sunsational today. I wasn't sure if it was going to show up that well on me, but I applied a little Cushy l/l with it and...LOVE!
