I wouldn't say back up worthy for me but it is really nice and I had no problem with colour payoff but I only used it out the corners and into the crease slightly, it might be different if I try a wash with it. Cloud is like a light/mid taupey/silver shimmery colour it's heaven and I'm in love with it, I use it all the time lately.

Ali I almost wore Girl About Town today! I had it on and everything but then chickened out on the way to work and took it off

 

[sambibabe]

^^ Yeah the colour pay out is not as good as other MAC silver/grey shades. LOL I was going to buy a back up, so I can depot one, but it looks like I am going to depot anyway!

[rockin26]

^^ Was that the MAC bronzer? I wasn't a fan of that one either and now I love my NARS one

 

[xLongLashesx]

Yep! The mac bronzer in golden. I bought laguna but it's too pale for me right now, can't wait til winter so I can try it out!

 

[aussiemacluvrrr]

^^ lol Laguna is too pale for you?!?!?! Arent you only NC30???

I'm NC40 and I have to use a very light hand with Laguna otherwise I look like a muddy faced two year old

But I agree Golden has the poorest colour payoff of any bronzer I have ever used.......

 

[CatsMeow]

Golden isn't a jet milled powder, that's why the payoff isn't as good; I use Refined Golden (which is jet milled) or the MUFE Mat Bronzer and find I get more bang for the buck.

This is yesterday's look.. I'm home sick today with a damn cold (poo)...
Kinda got carried away with layering colours.

Hope you feel better Ali! Maybe you had too much fun at the pro store training

What's the go with my Laguna then! I'm more a 35 but it doesn't show up on me at all! I've been using stila bronzer in 2 and that shows up fine.

Ali- that makes sense about it not being jet milled. Mine looks really chunky, dry and unappealing in the pan. I think I'll B2m it

Dunno, March has been a crazy month with freelance and the week in melbs @ pro - probably all caught up with me!
Can't remember whether I liked Cantaloupe or not last year, lovin' it now tho!!

I picked up the 130 brush as well and it's pretty much replaced my 187.

Sal - I've never used Golden in appointments on counter for that same reason, there's no colour payoff and Refined Golden is so much better.

 

[sambibabe]

^^ Haha.. remember when we met up? I think you preferred Cubic and decided to ditch Cantaloupe. Oh my gosh, I can't believe I remember all these lol.

 

[CatsMeow]

Oh yeah, I bought Cubic. I still love it. Good for pale people!

I just wanted more of a peach neutral colour, rather than pink neutral, that isn't a shimmer (like Springsheen - love that too), but I was never 100% keen on Peaches. Cantaloupe definitely fits the bill!

You have a good memory, Nat!

[CatsMeow]

I knew it was you!! I just wasn't EXPECTING to see you!!
I should've realised that you practically live in the Pro store. BAHAHAHA.

 

[sambibabe]

^^ Haha that's not true!!! I hardly go there! My friend took me to a fashion show and we just ended up there

I didn't expect to see you there either lol.

By the way.. I put the Dressmaker, Dressmaker lippy up in the swatch thread..
