I was actually kinda sad with the fact that I didn't get my swatches with Vanessa :(. We usually go together everytime MAC has a new released collection, but she had some business to take care of after work. So, I went right after work... by myself. It was definitely weird and not so much fun.
Anyway, I didn't get to swatch the Gold Fever collection because apparently my Nordies didn't have them out yet.
The new Suite Array collection didn't really grab my attention at all. The eyeshadow combination actually reminds me of NARS except when it comes to the quality of the MAC eyeshadows, they are more matte, chalky, and sheer. It's really hard to pick the color from the pan, and once it's applied it's more glittery than it is pigmented. I needed to really put some pressure onto my fingers for just the eyeshadow to show up. They just didn't strike me as worth it.
The Pearlglide eyeliners however have nice pigmentation. Although, they're creamy in a sense that it will budge if you try rubbing it off, yet it's hard to take off (if that made any sense) that soap and water won't just cut it. These eyeliners are almost like the Urban Decay 24/7 eyeliners in my opinion.
So what do you think for MAC's 293274x collection? Was it strikingly beautiful enough for you? Or is it a complete miss?
ahhhhhhhhhh
ReplyDeletei'm already in love w/ shallow v deep.........ah i love teal/turquoise colorsssss
geez!!!!
its kind of a hard color to wear for me so its hard to find the right shade.
man im probably gonna get that one for sure!
Luckily i work in the mall and tomorrow is pay day. sadly, im broke so i have to go from the mall, to the bank and BACK to the mall to get what i want at nordies.
whoaaa those colors r very pigmented!! now tell me.. how do u take such goood pictures witout the colors washed off?? i needa know!! =)
ReplyDeletethe pearlglide eyeliners look pretty :) how much do they cost?
ReplyDeletei agree the eyeshadows were such a disappointment but i love those eyeliners...finally something that goes on smooth but stays
ReplyDeletethat is soooo strikingly beautiful indeed!!! i like the eyeliners better tho.
ReplyDeleteThe Pearlglide liners look check out worthy!
ReplyDeleteI think I can skip out on the lipsticks of Creamsheen.
Thanks for the swatches!! I like knowing what I like before I go in the store, lol!
thanks for posting this!!! <3-leslie
ReplyDeleteThe liners are pretty! "Ok, hold back Lynne... quit adding and start using", lol!
ReplyDeleteAww, that's disappointing. I was looking forward to the eyeshadows because the colors look so pretty! Damn MAC for being so inconsistent with the pigmentation and chalkiness of their e/s!
ReplyDeleteOn the other hand, the liners look gorg.
Another vote for the Pearglide eyeliners. I'm already loving the Fly-By-Blu and Rave.
ReplyDeletewow very pigmented colors! fly-by-blu is soooo pretty!!!
ReplyDeleteThe liners are gorgeous! It's a shame about the eyeshadows, I was so looking forward to them.
ReplyDeletethe shadows don't seem to amaze me but oh yes, the pencils do! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteoooooo, i must have the eyeliner pencils.
ReplyDeleteYeah even from the swatches the eyeshadow duos look chalky =T. Counterparks looks pretty though.
ReplyDeleteI think I'm going to have to go look at the eyeliners. I really like all the colors besides Molasses, Black Russian, and Bankroll. I've just started wearing eyeliner again =P
the eyeliner pencils are gorgeous! i must get my hands on some of these :]
ReplyDeleteThe eyeliners look awesome, but the shadows aren't appealing to me as much. Except that I love the packaging!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the swatches! For some reason, MAC hasn't impressed me lately. I'm saving up some moolah for the upcoming MSF collection though!
ReplyDeletethank you for the swatches :D they look awesome!!
