Probably should have put this in my order this am, as it’s online only and LE. But the mufe looks great, too, and is quite close. Got sucked in on the Mac LE rat race again for the Taraji MSF. Deep rooted and burnt pepper, but did not succumb to the Taraji l/s. I’m TRYING to be good. Think Mac missed an opportunity for the bowling theme with packaging, though the powder is cleverly conceived.
I’ve got the MUFE, but the MAC seems to have me by the balls too.. gnuck gnuck
Wendy, water just flew outta my mouth at reading that!!! ROFLMBO! ?
Yeah, that’s what caused my comment on the Tarte palette. When you love something, you see the tiniest differences to justify it. That’s why Tarte can make the same palette over and over. Filthy berry addict! Love it.
Wtf can I eff up the comment location? Wendy: hey, if it were instore, and you just couldn’t recall that memorable name, you could always testiculate. You can imagine the yuks they are having at Mac, with this one……
KJH: I am picturing them right now, especially when an SA gets a person-to-person phone order for it!!! ???
I’m yukking right now 😀 definitely changing the lyrics to the song Tesellate by Alt-J to Testiculate… sing it! Let’s Testiculate
I’m relieved to see many high quality dupes for this shade….I would have been turning 50 shades of red if someone asked me what I was wearing and I had to say: Babes And Balls! Sophomoric, I know, but still would’ve been trying (likely unsuccessfully) to stiffle the giggles! ?
I think the name is a bonus. I’m gonna love saying it with a straight face and seeing people’s reactions. ;D
I have both MAC and Smashbox because I’m such a filthy berry addict. I have so many identical lipsticks, when will I ever use them up??? But I love every single one of them.
I am with you Kira. My berry addiction is real and growing more out of control the whole time. My berry lipsticks are by far the largest number in my collection and multiplying all the time. Oh well, like you I won’t be parting with any of them!
“Filthy berry addict”: I love it. Lmao
I really like the mac one though, and its cheapest of all of them. At least there are options when I run out of it. Not going to stockpile them, but I do like Babes a lot.
The name is cringe worthy, but I like how the MAC version is the cheapest by far, and is A rated
Lovely all around for each shade! I love berries 🙁
Nice finds, they’re perfect dupes.
I’m in the minority I guess; I think the name is hilarious. (Then again, I DO have an inner 12 year old. Lol)
Just ordered it off MAC’s site. Because I, too am a filthy berry addict 😀
