The MAC Makeup Thread

[CaraMia]

Thanks for all the advices. Actually, I've been collecting info. from some websites and nearly know how to use everything from MAC perfectly now. I mean, I know the theory but I've to try to practice.

Question: which base do you prefer before applying eyeshadows/shadesticks/pigments...? Prep+prime?

I've tried eyeshadows, shadesticks, & pigments. Of the three, I definitely prefer shadesticks.

This is the powder duo that my MAC-lady talked about...

A more provocative foray into the fine art of sculpture. Silky, jet-milled highlighting powder followed up with matte contour powder finish to embolden the shapes and volumes of your own personal work of modern art. Be an artist in full command of your medium.

A duo-pan shaded compact featuring a contour and a highlight powder in shades selected to complement each other. Professional formula. Jet-milled, ultra-smooth to apply: provides almost imperceptible shading. Use to shape and define the facial planes, or define the shape of the eye.

Kate_Moore hand down Urban Decay's Eyeshadow Primer Potion, nothing beats it.

I've already heard about it and want to try it but... where can I find it online? (I'm from Spain and not a lot of websites ship internationally..)

i really liked the preview of the fafi collection in the new issue of teen vogue. the hot pink shades look very similar to the barbie collection...

 

[Kate_Moore]

^could you scan it or take a picture, please?

 

[Suburban Snob]

Yes, Lucy, please scan! I loved the Barbie collection so I'm dying to know anything more about this!

 

[lucy92]

I really want to try the sculpt and shape powder but they don't have it at my counter so I might order it online, although I'd really like to look at the colours in person! Also some of the fafi colours look gorgeous!

 

[Kate_Moore]

I want all from the Fafi one! Do you know if the date of release is the same worldwide?

Most of the Fafi collection are re-promotes with new packaging.

I don't think it's coming until mid-January...at least in Denmark

Here are pics of the N Collection from specktra.net. It's set to release on Jan 17.

 

[Kate_Moore]

^It releases by the 17th in the States (and I guess in Canada too) but in the rest of the world..? Do you know where I can find the dates releasing in Spain?

 

[iLoveCouture]

You could always go to Maccosmetics.com and do a live chat to find out additional release dates.

Thanks for posting those iLoveCouture

I can't wait to see this I definitely think I need ALL the eyeshadows, hopefully one of the lipsticks will be a perfect nude for me...Ugh it's all gonna sell quickly, I know it

 

[Suburban Snob]

I'm disappointed in the N Collection as I am very, very fair skinned and very, very cool toned. I don't think any of those shades would look good on me. At least it's a break for my poor wallet

you're welcome dear! I really like this collection and I too am hoping that one of those lipsticks is the perfect nude. I love nude shadows for everyday wear so I am definately going to check this out. I have also heard that this collection may possibly be out on the 10th in some locations in the US...just not sure where.
