Monday, February 4, 2008
Yay! Ohh, perfect gift :D
Swatches of the paint pots are up, I just missed adding it to the post.
Saturday, February 2, 2008
Thanks for the swatches! It has killed a few of my wants which is a wonderful thing because I am dying for Heatherette. Any word on what the feedback was for FAFI? I am interested to know what other people at the PRO store thought of it. :)
Monday, February 4, 2008
No problem, Katie :) Nope, not much feedback, unfortunately!
Saturday, February 2, 2008

Monday, February 4, 2008
Ooh, awesome, Tatiana!
Sunday, February 3, 2008
Thank you! you are so helpful!
Monday, February 4, 2008
No problem, Nell!
Sunday, February 3, 2008
Totally Amazing swatches!!! You’re so the best!!!
Did you happen to get swatches of the paint pots?
Monday, February 4, 2008
They’re up!
Sunday, February 3, 2008
Thank you. I can’t wait to hear about/see the paintpots (specifically Nice Vice!)
Monday, February 4, 2008
No problem!
Sunday, February 3, 2008
thanks for the swatches! i want it all!!!
Monday, February 4, 2008
No problem, Nunu!
Sunday, February 3, 2008
Those are truly awesome colors and I can’t wait to check them out in person. I am definitely going to get most of the eye products and powders. Love the lipsticks too but I want to try them out before buying. I am very surprised and disappointed the only fluidline in this collection is Blacktrack :(
Monday, February 4, 2008
Great, Tonee! How are you liking the quads? I want more fluidlines!
Sunday, February 3, 2008
I can’t help but think how muted most of those paint pots look for a “vibrant” collection :S Oh well… I’m definitely lemming Boom! n/p though.
Monday, February 4, 2008
That’s true, a few of them are kind of subdued!
Sunday, February 3, 2008
Rollickin IS very different from Otherworldly. Fie…FIE I say!!!
Monday, February 4, 2008
Haha, indeed!
Sunday, February 3, 2008
I was hoping Nice Vice would have been a lighter purple but I am really liking the Perky more than I thought I would!
Monday, February 4, 2008
Me too, Sarah. Perky is pretty though!
Sunday, February 3, 2008
Thank you xtine!!!!!! I think I will get 4 p/p 1 quad only :)
Sunday, February 3, 2008
I had a chance to go into the back room at Mac and see the fafi collection, yesterday. The colors are beautiful! I think they appear vibrant but I think they will be very workable. The lippies are beautiful. Even the one with the blue is not at all over the top. The paint pots are very workable. I think McQueen was very vibrant but fafi will be versatile enough that there will be something for everyone. Don’t forgo this collection until you see it up for yourself.
I’m so happy these swatches are up! Thank you!
Monday, February 4, 2008
Hey Carrie!
Ohh, lucky you :D Were you able to buy anything?
Sunday, February 3, 2008
How exciting…I saw your swatches and they look amazing. I just bought half the N collection and I can’t wait until Fafi comes out. Was the collection exclusively released because u were at the MAC pro store? or did the NY store just release it early to the public? Thanks.
Monday, February 4, 2008
Yay :D I’m glad you were able to check out the swatches. The NYC PRO launched it early, they usually launch everything a week early.
Sunday, February 3, 2008
Thanks so much Christine!! Definitely getting the quad with the brighter, pastel colors. And Strawbaby lipstick.. hopefully it will look good on me.
Monday, February 4, 2008
No problem, Kristen! My pleasure, really!
Sunday, February 3, 2008
You’re the best Christine! Thanks for these gorgeous swatches! I’m disappointed that the designs are stickers, but at least it will keep me from buying everything just for the packaging!!
Monday, February 4, 2008
Aww, you’re a peach, Gina!
Sunday, February 3, 2008
how does cult fave compare to prr lipglass? thanks so much for the swatches, i initially wanted 3 paintpots and now i think ill just get 1, rollockin… and also is sugar trance comparable to oyster girl?!
Monday, February 4, 2008
Honestly I don’t know, as I don’t have Prr, sorry hun! Sugar Trance is similar, but I think it has more opalescence.
Sunday, February 3, 2008
i want rollickin in the paint pots and totally it lipglass =)
Monday, February 4, 2008
Yay, good picks!
Sunday, February 3, 2008
Wow, thanks for the swatches/review! It totally revamped my list into something I can afford! Too bad the Fafi packaging turned out to be such a disappointment with the stickers. I feel like I need to plastic wrap whatever I buy. Oh well… there’s still the Heatherette line coming up!
Monday, February 4, 2008
No problem, Elle :) LOL, plastic wrap!
Monday, February 4, 2008
The pink quad looks similar to the N collection color scheme that is out right now. That orange quad — I will have to check it out when it launches to see if I still want it, kind of has that rockstar appeal. The lipglasses and lipsticks look very pretty. Rollickin’ paint pot color looks delicious….
Monday, February 4, 2008
That’s true, I didn’t notice that. Shockwave was one of the stand out shadows, though not enough to buy the full quad!
Monday, February 4, 2008
Woo! Thanks for the swatches!! The lippies look gorgeous… so do Perky, Rollickin’ and Cash Flow! Hipness blush, both nail laquers and Sassed Up! I must say, though… I am very disappointed with Nice Vice. I was really hoping for a more true purple or lavendar paint pot. Can you tell me how it compares to Artifact p/p? It definitely looks similar, just slightly more plum instead of burgundy..
Monday, February 4, 2008
Hey Ariele!
No problem :)
Yeah, it is really NOT purple whatsoever really… It is darker and less red.
Monday, February 4, 2008
OMG!! I am so excited for this collection now. I was really iffy on it before. Now I want the Fafi Eyes 2 quad, Hipness blush, 3 paint pots, two lipsticks, and a lipgloss.
Monday, February 4, 2008
Yay! I’m glad it’s raised some excitement for you!
Monday, February 4, 2008
Christine, how true to life are the swatches above? I know that everyone’s computer is different but I am so sold on this collection from the swatches. I would be dissapointed to see that they are very different in real life.
Monday, February 4, 2008
I believe they are very true to life, that is my purpose in taking swatches and posting them!
Thursday, February 7, 2008
Ummm…yeah. Ok.
Monday, February 4, 2008
Thanks for the swatches! How much does fun n sexy look like flowerplay from the strange hybrid collecion?
Monday, February 4, 2008
No problem, Shar! To be honest, I don’t remember Flowerplay very much, but I think they’re different in terms of texture and shimmer.
Monday, February 4, 2008
Wow!!! I too signed up for the Fafi event out in San Diego, Ca. CAN’T WAIT! So jealous!
Monday, February 4, 2008
YAY! Have fun at the event, Tiffany!!
Monday, February 4, 2008
Wow, the quads are a disappointment. But yey, I can spend on other stuff. It suxs they are only stickers. I want the blushes.
Thursday, February 7, 2008
It’s too bad the quads are a disappointment!
Tuesday, February 5, 2008
I cant wait…I’ll be at belks bright and early on the 13th…I love this collection
Thursday, February 7, 2008
Aw, yay!!
Tuesday, February 5, 2008
OMG THIS IS SOO CUTE. THE COLOURS ARE AWSOME!!
Wednesday, February 6, 2008
I’m glad you like them, MAC Girl!
Wednesday, February 6, 2008
Thanks so MUCH for the swatches! I live for them :)
In your swatch of the lipstick Utterly Frivolous - it looks like a beautiful pink, but on ebay and MAC the product/swatch looks more like a coral red? Which is it? I’m hoping it’s more like your swatch!
Wednesday, February 6, 2008
No problem, hun, I’m happy to help! Utterly Frivolous is not at all a bright coral red, it’s more like a coral-peach, IMO.
Wednesday, February 6, 2008
Thanks! I really, really appreciate your time to respond.
I was still hoping it was more of a pink…darn
I’ll probably still get it.
Wednesday, February 6, 2008
No problem!! :) There is some pink to it, but it’s not just a plain pink, there is definitely coral/peach in it.
Friday, February 8, 2008
Wow that’s great! I’ve been looking for more info on the Fafi collection everywhere! Thanks! I was invited to the Fafi event as well this Sunday the 10th. They say there’s going to be food and everything and an appearance by Fafi I was told. I’m super excited and they let me bring a few girlfriends. Can’t wait. Hope to meet some of you gals there!
Sunday, February 10, 2008
Awesome! I hope you have a ball at the event, Carol!
Friday, February 8, 2008
Oh!! Some of them r so gorgeous!! I really like those paint pots, especially CashFlow, Perky and Rollickin’. But I am such a beginner here,,can u tell me ways to use the paint pot. Thank you so much! Love u!!
Sunday, February 10, 2008
Definitely! Paint pots are great as bases, meaning you put them on first and then layer eyeshadow on top of them.
Friday, February 8, 2008
hi! is the cultfave a pinkish tone because it looks brown tanish in the website also is the pink venus eyeshadow the same as the regular pink venus eye shadow?
Sunday, February 10, 2008
Pink Venus is the same as the normal one (though I swear the texture is better, but I don’t own Pink Venus anymore, so I could be wrong). Cult Fave is definitely pink!
