Haul: MAC Neo Sci-Fi, Solar Field, & Tendertones

Friday, July 11, 2008

This is my MAC haul from before my ban, but never got around to posting it. I actually waited a while to purchase when these summer collections debuted because I was sick at the time and wasn't all that interested in it. As you probably know, it's packaged in an extremely gaudy orange. It's so bright, it's nearly blinding! However, it is really easy to spot them in my makeup bag and what not.


Neo Sci-Fi
I got one of the five lipsticks in Pleasureseeker. It's a very gorgeous nudey, peach shade. I have to neutralize my lips using concealer to bring out the color. If I don't, it really doesn't do much for me except add a hint of shimmer to the lips. I also got both blushes in Spaced Out and X-Rocks. Spaced Out is a shimmery peach shade. Unlike my other peach toned blushes, there is no pink undertone. I like it better in the pot than applied. I feel like it sometimes has me looking orange. X-Rocks looks very brown in the pot, but applies more mauve. It's the darkest blush shade I own, as most of mine are pink and peach toned. You also have to be light handed with it.





Solar Field
I only got a bronzing powder in Solar Riche. It reminds of Heatherette Beauty Powder in Harmony but a bit more pigmented. I liked Refined Golden better, but didn't bother since it's a repromote. By the time I went and checked out the collection, all the Solar Bits were completely sold out except for one. I may end up getting one from online as they do look interesting.




Tendertones
I only got one of these too! I picked up one in Sweet Tooth. The in the pot color is a bright coral peach shade with white or silver shimmer. Applied on, you can barely see a color if any. It's very, very sheer, but I love the shine it gives me. It's also not sticky compared to the lipglasses. It feels very light and moisturizing. This is definitely my favorite item from this haul. Depending if they have any left at my MAC, I think I might get Pucker and Hush Hush too.

I really thought your ban was over! Am I the only one who love the gorgeous bright orange packaging? Pleasureseeker has looked gorgeous on a lot of fotds.. it makes me want it. I still have some $ on my gift card, but I already feel guilty sorta breaking my ban. Cos it wasn't just about cutting back on spending, but discipline you know.

BOO TO SOLAR BITS!

Seriously, they're so overrated. They're a mess to work with, a mess to stay on, and you get 1/2 the amount of product as pigments for the same price. Or I might just be bitter that I can't get them to work for me, heheh.
