It took me over 3 years to finish 6 MAC products so that I could get a Back2Mac lipstick. Choosing a free lipstick was much harder than I thought. First I was thinking about getting some unexpected lipstick, a wild card. But I ended up getting an easy to use every-day lippie. But choosing that still wasn't easy. I wanted something that goes well with cool toned, dark eye shadows. After swatching quite a while, I fell in love with Fabby (Frost, 'mauve with gold pearl', although I'd say it's light pink-mauve with golden sheen.)
Suomeen rantautui vihdoin MACin kevään kokoelmat. Tosin niissä on suuria puutteita, joka tuntuu aivan käsittämättömältä. Esim. Shop Mac, Cook Mac -kokoelman kaikki luomivärinelikot puuttuivat, samoin suurin osa huulipunista. :( Eikä kokoelmilla ollut edes omia pahviständejä. En tiedä, pidetäänkö Suomea jotenkin turhana maana, että tänne ei edes viitsitä lähettää kokoelmia. Itse sain kuitenkin sen, mitä halusin, eli Vera -kokoelmasta 'Petrol Blue' Pearlglide -kynän. (Pearlglide-kynien pitäisi jäädä pysyvään kokoelmaan. Suosittelen näitä kyniä lämpimästi. Ihanan pigmenttisiä ja pysyvät todella hyvin.)
This spring's MAC collections finally arrived in Finland. Well, the little that we got here. For example, we didn't get any of the eyeshadow quads of the 'Shop Mac, Cook Mac' collection and almost all of the lipsticks were missing. :( Collection didn't even have their own stands. I don't know if Finland is considered so small a country or what, that Mac isn't bothered to send us the whole collections. But I got what I wanted: Pearlglide in 'Petrol Blue' from 'Vera' collection. (Pearlglides should be part of the permanent collection from now on. I highly recommend them. They're really pigmented and stay amazingly well.)

I love the pink which comes close to being a neutral to nude shade.It is great to discover these nice shades through blogging and discussion.

ReplyDeleteGlad if I was any help. :) I don't like cool, barbie pinks, but this lipstick has a golden sheen which makes this shade really wearable and pretty. :)
