I think the red velvet cuz i’ve heard it brings out the pinks so much, & thats what i’ve been trying out lately to welcome spring!

these colored shades go well for the spring bcuz it welcomes back the nature such as the flowers growing out in different colors. i hope i get a chance to rock out these shades not just for spring but for the easter bunny!

I would love to win Lemon Chiffon because I swatched it at the MAC counter & fell in love but just didn’t have any more $ left at that moment since I had bought other MAC items. Please, please, please!

I am a SHADESTICK lover – I have 14 of them and so excited to get my hands on the new ones – but they are only exclusive to 4 stores in Germany – all in the south or east – I am in the north-west. No possibility to purchase them, as we can not order them online. So you are my hope :-*

I would like to win LEMON CHIFFON because I already purchased Red Velvet. I was debating if I made a bad choice not getting Lemon Chiffon and realized I did but I have no money left to back and get it since I purchased other Sugarsweet stuff plus some new stuff from Viva Glam and MAC won’t stop bombarding us with goodies 🙁 Whaaaaa Whaaaa!

I’d love to win Red Velvet. I feel shadesticks are a love ’em/hate ’em kind of product, and I am one of those who totally loves them. I can’t afford any makeup now though, and haven’t been able to for a while, so it’d be nice to update my collection. 🙂

i had 4 needle fulls of anesthetic, stabbed around 15 times in different areas which hurt of coursee
so if i cant have real sweets, i might as well have the next best thing!

ive never tried shadesticks before and i heard these ones are a looot creamier, which im excited about
lemon chiffon would probably make a great base for a lot of looks too!

I would love to win either one of these shadesticks. I started using MAC back in December and my first purchase was Shimmersand shadestick. It has been downhill since then. I have the Red Velvet Cake shadestick on my list. I would love it to wear with pinks and reds, to help them standout against my skintone.

Hi there,

I would LOVE to win the Lemon Chiffon Shadestick. I am going to be a first time mommy and I am finding it hard to find clothes that fit. However, the one thing that I find I don’t need to “fit” into is makeup. But because we have nothing and have to save up for everying…makeup has been one thing I have had to give up. I think the Lemon Chiffon Shadestick would really bring out the existing MAC eyeshadows I already have and make them seem more springy. Thanks =)
