WOC: In The Groove

I really wanted to like the pinks but the two are so similar you could def opt for one or the other. They were pinkier versions of Blooming Lovely (which I bought and don't use) So if you like that look then I would definitely get one of those lippies. I think I prefered All Styled Up.

I bought Comfort today after all the rave reviews. It looks really pretty on my skin.

^^ Gosh i'm super tempted now!!! hahas I might wait for it to be released in aus instead of getting a CP for it

since i'm getting my SR & petticoat CP soon!

I hauled Making it Easy MES. I thought that one was the prettiest in the neutral category.
The MES are RIDICULOUSLY smooth in this collection. I love MAC's new spin on them. I passed on the blushes since I have a few pro blushes that are similar. they were pretty though.

I may go back for Togetherness, Style Influencer, and/or Love to Love later on.

I have comfort already and I use it everyday, It's a really nice MSF that you WILL use. GET It!

I passed on stereo rose I don't see what the big whoop is about. It looks better on lighter or darker skintones not mediums. By candlelight is georgous! I tried comfort but it's way to dark.
I got
by candlelight
Go for it
Band of roses (the best!)
New vibe

 

[Ebonyone]

I actually had no expectations of Stereo Rose, but It has worked well for me as a highlighter, blush and lip color.

 

[TheTeenageMuse]

Exchanged New Vibe for Band of Roses and I have to say I'm not convinced. I'll play around and wear it tomorrow but if not I might just return it. Depressing because that means I didn't get ANYTHING from this collection.

I really did not like Jazzed on myself..I am an NC45-NC50...it was just blah to me. It was not special at all.

Ooooo...I guess I will be picking it up after payday!

 

[Foxxydiva]

I'm NC45 and just purchased Go For It(love this color) and Chillin'(gotta work with this one).

Ended up returning Chillin l/g. Turned clear too fast for me. Exchanged for a Digi-pop lipstick instead.

 

[Smf16]

I definitely want Petticoat and band of roses..but I just don't know about Stereo rose..how does this look on NW43/45 skin?

 

[j4lyphe]

How do Comfort and By Candlelight look on NW45 skin? Do they show at all? I was wondering because I already have and love NARS Albatross as a highlight but was wondering if By Candlelight would be a dupe for it...and how would Comfort compare to say So Ceylon (love)...

 

[DaniCakes]

Surprisingly, I only bought You've Got it from this collection. I had Stereorose on hold and did not find anything spectacular about it. I ended up stocking my kit with 3 permanent blushes and 5 lipglasses. I have to stop my self-indulgence and think about work.

 

[DaniCakes]

Jazzed definitely did not work for me. Too orange for my complexion. The pink lipsticks are pretty, but nothing to write home about. I'm skeptical about buying mineralized eyeshadows, so I passed. They look too messy.

Yes and Yes. No and No. Yes Comfort and By Candlelight will show up on NW45 skin and they both look really good. No NARS Albatross is not a dupe for By Candlelight. Albatross is a soft white gold shimmer. By Candlelight is warm, soft pinky shimmer. And No, Comfort and So Ceylon are not similar. Like I don't even know how to compare those two. The Comfort is golden brown. So Ceylon has a rosey-ness. It also swatches lighter on me. Very different, and I am not one of those, "If you hold it in natural sunlight at a 45 degree angle you can see that this one has a slightly more green tint and the other is more blue and the shimmer is a little more apparent" types.

I would take photos but I have had the most draining day. HTH.

This is why I am glad I skipped the blushes. MAC releases too many dupes sometimes. Crazy when its in the same year. I have full fuchsia, which reminds me of band of roses without the shimmer.

Oh my gosh - I feel soooo much better about not getting New Vibe now that I am able to see it compared to Bi-Tone in a picture. Sigh of relief. Maybe I should return my Band of Roses though considering I already have Love Thing, Full Fuchsia and Dollymix....

right? as soon as i saw band of roses i got a feeling. but on the other hand, good for folks to get if they missed out on full fuchsia from riveting. or can't get to MAC pro.
