This collection is on-counter now!
I took items for Back-2-MAC and didn't take any money, 'cause I'm trying to stick to a budget. This collection really impressed me, though, much more than I expected, so I will be going back with more Back-2-MAC this week to grab more. I plan on depotting madly for the next few days! :)
So far -
1 Roman Holiday, 2 Veo Veneto, 1 Internationalist, 1 Local Colour
I'll be going back for-
1 Cockney, 1 Euro Beat, 1 Rue d'Rouge, and possibly another Roman Holiday and a Naked Paris
*Sigh*--- that's a lot of depotting.
REVIEW and MORE SWATCHES after the jump
Lipstick:
- Costa Chic - This is a lit-from-within coral and it's quite pretty! Nice pigmentation, and not too frosty in that little old lady frosty coral way. It's got a very lovely sheen to it that I really like.
- Naked Paris -I'm not a biggie for nude lippies, but this one is quite pretty. It's got just enough pink to it that it doesn't fall flat. Very sheer, too. I'd say if you have a terribly pigmented lip you should pass on this one - it probably won't show too much.
- Patisserie - Really didn't expect to like this one, but I do. I'm considering getting it, in fact, since I couldn't stop looking at the swatch! Nice coverage, for a Lustre! I think this is a bit on the cool side, rather than being neutral, though.
- Milan Mode - This is more of a brown-pink, in my opinion, and quite nice. It's like Sophisto's younger, softer sister to my eye.
- London Life- Deep berry with multi-pearl pigments (Lustre) (LE)I really like this one. It sort of reminds me of another LE lipstick - Party Mate, from Naughty Nauticals. Of course, I can't find mine at the moment so maybe I'm just imagining the similarity.
Saint Germain - This one is a lot like Melrose Mood from Heatherette. It's not my style, and since they're so similar I really don't need this one.
- Cockney - When I hear "yellow red" I think "PASS." When I saw Cockney in the tube, I thought "No way!" When I swatched it, I thought "I NEED THIS!" It's a clear, pretty red with a great shimmer to it. Since it's a Lustre, it's not terribly overwhelming, but it is bright and strong. I really don't see this as a "yellow red" but since I'm in disagreement with the MAC gods a lot in this collection, maybe I need new glasses. :)
- Date Night - I am so happy this is Perm, because it's one of my favorite Dazzleglasses. I adore it! It's plummy-pink with great shimmer. Try it - you may like it!
- Euro Beat - This looks like someone electrified it. I adore it! It's definitely coral with fantastic shimmer. Perfect for summer!
- Internationalist - Love this one, especially since the blue pearl keeps it from being too warm of a pink. Quite versatile.
- Local Colour - It's more of a neutral-y shade. The pearl is pretty, and I am in this nude type of mood so I snapped it up. If you like your Dazzleglasses to have more WOW factor, you'll pass, but if you're trying to find a nice subdued color with lots of dimension, this may work for you.
- Roman Holiday - This is the sleeper hit of the collection for me. When I saw the tube, I actually thought it looked terrible. As soon as the product hit my hand for the swatch, I blinked in surprise. HOT! It's described as "brown coral" and I suppose that's pretty accurate. On the lips, it's a neutral but glowing nude with pink shimmer that just looks stunning! If I could describe this one better, I would, but I can't quite capture the way the pink shimmer glows against that
brown-pink-coral background. I hope they make this one Perm, and soon!
- Rue d' Rouge - I was completely convinced I would hate this one, too, because most reds are just too much for my pale skin, but I'm going to get this one for sure. Unfortunately my swatch got smuged, so you can't see how pretty this red is. It's almost a pink-red (Stila's Rock the Vote Red lipstick was similar in the impression it gave me). Will look great amping up other shades, shimmering over deep colors, or layered over red for the bold!
- Vie Veneto - This tube was already almost gone, so I predict it will be the sell-out item from the collection. Since I can't stand passing on purples, I got two. :) I love purples, and this is a very fair violet with a great blue shimmer. Perfect for cool skins, and I'm going to hoard mine.
Lip Pencil: (NOTE: I did not swatch these because it never occurred to me to do so. Doh!)
- Magenta - Great pencil, but not for the shy. A very intense purpley-pink.
- Cherry - Quite red. Very clear, bright red. It scares me on my skin, but is a must for my kit - I reach for it often.
- Subculture - Browned-pink, heavy on the brown. A nice nude for warmer complexions; may "go orange" on cool skins.
- Whirl - A great nude for those of us with cool skin that turns browns orange. My favorite nude lipliner, though if there were a slightly lighter version that would be even better, since this is a bit deep to be a true nude for me (I'm NW15).
