Swatching yellows....
This is my first swatching so I am soo excited - of course you wish to see other pics I guess I can do that as well
I have a fairly bronze skin - I think it's around NC 30 - 33 right about now.
L-R: Beelicious Mac Pencil (Pro), Goldmine, Gorgeous Gold, Bright Sunshine (Pro), Chrome Yellow, Canary Yellow..
I wish I could swatch Going Bananas from the C-shock collection but my make-up girl tells me that it was a mix between nylon and chrome yellow - so if you have those you can definitely come up with that color.. I don't know how accurate that description is but it is something..
I hope this helps..

If I buy myth, I have to do so online, since I dont have a mac store nearby. I would love to see a swatch. Oh, I have pigmented lips and am fair nw15-20. thanks!! |

Era vs. Soba. Pref. on fair skin.
They were both rec'd to me, but they look pretty similar in the pan, and their descriptions sound the same. I'm buying online, as I can't get to my counter any time soon. Would it be worth it to get both? Which is richer/deeper?
