Oyster Girl is also a great color. I retired Oh Baby after I discovered this color.

I also like C-thru.

I bought Oyster Girl yesterday. it's very cute paired with Chestnut. i tried Veruska with Currant lip liner, but it looked horrible on me. :(

I wear Chestnut w/mine too and I wuv it.

Um, thou shalt not retire Oh Baby under any circumstances, you hear me?????:p :p

FeeFee needs to find out what's up with this Oyster Girl shade.

Hmmm, I guess I have to try Oh Baby. I have the chestnut liner and I have lipglass in Spite. It's an aiight color on me...maybe I need the right lipstick to wear it with.

LOL Fee Fee
 

I had to. This was the only shade I wore for 2 yrs str8.

Clear!!!!
 

...Yeah, I'm bringing this thread back from the dead.

I went to Saks Fifth Avenue in Charleston this past weekend, and bombarded the MAC counter. I have a new favorite. Lovechild Lipglass is a da bomb.

I need to go get a paper route or a lemonade stand or cut some yards or something to support my new MAC habit. :p

I just bought my first MAC products about a month ago and I am definitely impressed with the Oh Baby Lipglass as well as the Chestnut lip pencil.

Welcome to the club!!

If they didn't tell you-save your old containers-when you turn in 6 you get a free lipstick! Thats how they get ya-you get a new lipstick then you buy more pencil, which if you get you might as well pick up powder, another eyeshadow...then you venture into your brushes, first lip, then cheeks, then the set (cause you are going to learn how to do your eyes for yourself), and if you haven't already you venture into foundation....then you get the travel kit...then the big professional toolbox to hold all your products in.

Yeah...welcome to the club :p.

My name is stardusttwin...and I'm a MAC addict.

Hi stardusttwin! :o

prolly alone on this one....BUT!
 

I HATE M.A.C. and FASHION FAIR! :mad:

For my skin tone, neither do me justice. And to add, nothing chaps my a$$ more than seeing a good looking woman with mismatched makeup on (re: neck and face, three different shades! looking like a drag queen on crack!). Suffice to say, I worked over the summer at a casino in Detroit (MGM Grand) and appropriate, attractive, well kept appearance was required of my job. I haven't been a huge makeup nut, but have always been a fan of Bobbi Brown and Trish McEvoy.
Anyways, I tried out several different counters, just to try something new and was sorely dissapointed. M.A.C. seemed costumey and not necessarily complimenting to my undertones. I like to blend shades and could not find anything that did right by me (even with blending, it was always too-something-or-the-other). ALSO, Fashion Fair is made for those with severe red tones and of a darker variety. None of those colors suited me (I went out for a day looking like Boonquisha from down 'na skreet! with some bogus orange looking lipstick, the lady just KNEW would look good on me!).

The concept behind Bobbi Brown is not to mask your beauty, but to compliment it. And that means more earthly tones and if you want to get "spunky", then there are colors that you can match to your shade that won't make you look like Boo-Boo the fool! Also, the compacts that you can get (esp. McEvoy with changeable shades to suit mood/occasion are neat!) fit well and carry nicely (in a purse - bulkiness). So, perhaps I should be the new spokeswoman, but I would encourage those two, or even something cheap. You can ALWAYS manipulate/blend/mix/whatever to find something to match you (Maybelline, Revlon, Wet&Wild, etc)

I think it's so funny when people who really don't do MAC but want it because it's popular and there are tons of people at the counter get recommendations or get their makeup done. This is why you don't get help from the MAC girl who looks like the backstage-of-a-fashion-show-makeup-session gone wrong. They will set you up. Out of the many MAC stores close to me, I've found a girl in VA who is on point. She can do a dramatic look for a night out and a subtle look for everyday wear. I think any good quality makeup can be manipulated it's just a matter of who is doing it.

Re: Re: Clear!!!!
 

LMAO! A victim once, but no more. I'm to the point where I have to tell them I got it already.

Welcome to the M.A.C. club!! :) Good choice on your first purchases. I have the same lipglass and lip pencil and I always get compliments. :D
