WOC - Hello Kitty and Kitty Kouture

[Ladyvirtuous]

I will be attending a Hello Kitty event as well!! Even though I'm not planning to get a whole lot (3-4 items per collection rule), I never been to a MAC event. So this will be exciting. I will also help the WoC out by doing swatches.

 

[brownsuga lady]

I'm going to the launch tonight as well. I'll try to get swatches for ya'll.

Nothing appeals to me other than Nice To Be Nice lipglass and the brush set. Anything I get from this collection will be based on whether or not I like the actual product. I don't give a rat's ass about HK as a character. I know one thing though; this is a collection ripe for moneymaking on the aftermarket.

I'll go look and see what all of the fuss is about in person, but honestly nothing is appealing to me. I initially wanted one of the e/s pallettes b/c it had Romping in it....but i think I'll pass.

After seeing the swatches my list has shrunken quite a bit. The lip products are not as interesting as I thought they would be. I'm dying to know how those beauty powders work on darker skin tones though. They seem kind of chalky and pale but I want to be proven wrong.

must... buy... DEEP BLUE GREEN.

Ditto. The only items I want now are Most Popular, Sweet Strawberry and maybe Tippy.

I want one of the BP's but I am NW43 and I don't think they would work for me. You think maybe it would work well as an eyeshadow?

 

[MissResha]

well i'm for sure getting that deep blue green pigment. and maybe 3 lipglasses, but i'm a lil disappointed with the rest of the stuff. dah well. saves me some money lol.

I'm NW30 (so quite lighter than you) and only one of them showed up on me. So I highly doubt they'll show up on you. Just save your money for better stuff coming up with future collections

I only got three items from this collection. I think the collection was a lil over hyped and not as great in person. I do like what I got though. I got Big Bow l/s, Fast Friends l/g and the coral coloured TLC (forgot the name). I skipped on Fashion Mews and will get Lavender Whip instead. They both looked great on me but I just prefer more pigmented lipsticks so I I decided on Lavender Whip.

NW50 and Tippy. Could it work?

I know Miss Erin has commented that she couldn't get either to show on her and I think she is NC45 or NC43.

Can you comment on the colour payoff of Fun & Games Beauty Powder Blush?

 

[nursee81]

are there any good dupes for the e/s in the pallets?

 

[brownsuga lady]

In my opinion the beauty powders and blushes are not for chocolate gals. I'm NC50 and both beauty powders only showed up as a hint of chalky finish...and the blushes appeared chalky on my skin as well. I passed on all of those.

I did get:
-Both e/s palettes
-Fast Friends l/g
-Mimmy l/g
-Sweet Strawberry l/g
-Fashion Mews l/s
-Deep Blue Green Piggie (GORGEOUS)
-Pink Fish tinted lip cond.
-brush collection
-purse mirror

They had creme team out at the HK unveiling so I managed to get:
-lavendar whip l/s
-Boy Bait c/s
-the lavendar c/s (can't think of the name)

There's one other cremesheen I want and I'm done with makeup purchases for a WHILE.

 

[MissAlphaKitty]

there have been swatch comparisons of Spaced Out vs. Fun & Games
but can anyone comment on the colour payoff of Fun & Games on darker skintones?

I couldn't make Spaced Out show up on me and was wondering if Fun & Games is the same or more pigmented???

duuude I frucking LOVE Tippy lol

! I've never tried Dollymix, but it put an end to my craving for that PERFECT PINK blusher! I agree onthe BP and the other blush though. They either didn't show up, or looked like dust lol

I wore spaced out today and it showed up on me

and I'm darker than you. Try using like a pack brush (maybe 109)..not saying I know better, but I use my sonia kashuk brush (seems similar to the 109 which I have)..and it works!!.
