hello mac addicts..
i am looking for a discontinued eyeshadow called VELLUM frost. i got it a couple years ago but they stopped carrying it.. it's a pretty white shade that i adored. does anyone know if they ever bring back discontinued products? oh, and if you know another color that is similar to vellum frost let me know! thanks.
xo kat

10:24 am - Liza collection on website...

rougebombe
The stuff is actually quite wearable, especially the AM pallette, for just about all skintones really..

I hate MAC's mascara, but I actually like the one in this collection..

The holiday stuff is slowing coming in.. I list a description, prices etc, later today probably..

8:30 pm - confused!

unusualfairy
Hey, I have a question! Actually, it's something that has been bothering me a lot.. and I don't know who to ask but you guys, even if it's not MAC related (but I do love MAC! It's my fave brand). Here's my question:

I will be wearing a tube top next halloween, and my friend will be wearing black. And I ALWAYS hug him! But I can't when I wear sleeveless shirts because whatever deodorant I use, it always ALWAYS leaves some white spots!! Even if they say it doesn't, IT DOES. And if it doesn't, it's some kind of gel that its scent doesn't stay on all day... I'd have to reapply some, which is a bother when I'm out and not at home...

Do you know of any deodorant that is transparent, REALLY transparent to black, and that its scent will stay throughout the whole evening?? Thank you for your help! :)

5:58 pm - Sheer Shimmers

rougebombe
I noticed a lot of ppl have never heard/seen these. They are hidden on the MAC site. I love these, I dont use them as a blush rather I use them over my blush- it makes your cheeks look so pretty. My fave is Pink Flurry which I put over my empire and on my lids and anywhere else needed w/the blush to put some colour on my face. I have all of them but I really dont like the Norwegian Wood one- its taupe w/silver flecks, it looks horrible on me and im light/med skin tone, I know it wouldnt look good on darker skin tones because it would just look ashy and I sure as hell know it would look like grey dirt on fair skintones, so I have yet to figure out what the hell to do with this one- but I will keep it for work or if I ever end up finding something with it. I would really suggest getting one or two, they are VERY versatile and pretty much fool proof. If you go on the MAC site and do a search under sheer shimmer powders you should find them- they are in the same compact/size as the blushes- same price too.

Fair-Light skin: Pinky flurry is nice, but some say this doesnt show up on them, maybe because they are soley using it as a blush instead of using it as an accent. Trixie looks really good as well, but might be a tad too much depending how light you are. Bjeweled works too.

Ligh-Med skin: If you fit here you can get away with just about most of the shimmers (I'm an NC30 if that helps some) Pink flurry, Taffy is great as a shimmery bronzer all over, I wear a bit over my spice or prism blush when I'm wearing a nuetral face . Mellow Mood is great as a highlighter for med skin tones- doesnt show too well on fair ones. and if you have a darker complexion but you lean towards the lighter side this might look good as well. although I think it would look a bit ashy on Dark complexions, depending how you use it. Trixie and b - jeweled look real nice too.

Med-dark skin tones: Taffy will work good for olive complexion and/or dark tones that are on the lighter side. It wont show up too much. Sound trip looks really good too, but not too much starting with this one- its a golden copper colour. Revenge is really pretty as well its copper bronze- sound trip leans more towards the redder side.

All of these depend on which way you wear it and what blush (if you choose too) wear it with.

Femme Noir is on the MAC site. I would really reccomend you checking out the veluxe shadows especially if you tend to have oily lids. The staying power on these are amazing. Just remember MAC will be pretty much putting out new things each month until December.

1:56 pm - Mmm.. Lips

swtjessie
Well okay. My natural lip color is very red. But, I also love to wear nude colors on my lips.. But, they tend to look kind of pinkish. I also like pink/nudish colors. Does anyone have any suggestions, on lip gloss and lipsticks that I should try?

MM I love how J-lo does her makeup! )

2:05 am - brushes and cleaners.. I get this question alot..

rougebombe
DO NOT I REPEAT DO NOT, EVER BUY MAC'S BRUSH CLEANER. ESPECIALLY IF YOU HAVE MAC BRUSHES. I can never stress this enough. ppl always complain how they become ratty and dont last longer- some light soap and warm water is all you need, and sometimes I use hair conditioner, thats all. no pricey brush cleansers..

1:25 pm - really good recc's

rougebombe
this colours work together for any skin type.. which can be applied sheer or more dramatic.. so if you wanna invest in some colours please check out these..


Cranberry e/s
Melon pigment (this is old, for the 'pro' but they added this to the tan ray collection)
Cocoa Brown pigment- new to the tan ray collection

u can even just goto the counter and have them scoop up some samples of the two pigments and put them in their white flip top containers.. they, well atleast where i work/hang out are very generous w/the samples.. plus u only need a teeeny tiny bit..

soo yeah really check these out and play around w/them.. they go w/ ANY skin tone.

im wearing all three right now and what I did was put a light wash of the melon pigment from lash to brow bone, then I put the cocoa in the crease and lined lightly around the eyes, then I took the cranberry w/ a slightly damp brush and line around my eyes and also put it a bit on top of the cocoa brown pig (this w/ a dry brush) Im wearing the foxy lady eyekhol which kind of looks like a more dramatic cranberry- its not as scarey as it looks trust me, it wont make your eyes red- it brings out the flecks on the cranberry real well
black mascara
my lips are nude, and my cheeks are flushed a bit w/ blush in desert rose

(all MAC cept the mascara)

I might take pics, if my cam would stop dying on me *POS*

12:40 am - If anyone can answer my question

swtjessie
*taps mic*

Does anyone know how to make your font bigger? I've seen numerous people changing their fonts and making it bigger.. for example.

What if I wanted one text to be like size 36?

If you can help me please do.. be deeply appreciated. *nods*
