I'm NC 45... although my arm is lighter than my face... No Base... For product names go to the blog

Tons more pictures close up and in different lighting on the blog

The only swatches on my arm are from the new collection... So I hope I got all the names right, if not, just know I did each product group in sections on my arm, so its pretty organized

It was packed as hell in that lil MAC! All the MUAs were impressed with my swatch arm, in fact everyone was. The photog there too a picture! :grin: PPL were requesting swatches haha... It was fun!

I went to one too. What did you think of the colllection (sorry when posting from a phone going to another link is kinda annoying heh heh)?

I wasn't too impressed with the eyeshadows (though I LOVE the ones that apparently came out last week in another collection! Beautiful!). They were too pastel-y for me. I liked a couple of the lipsticks and lipglosses and the darker blush though. I would like the eyeliner in the black color because it sounds like a good mix between kohl and powerpoint....

^^^ I agree I spent more time looking at Colour Craft and Love That Look..

but I did like the lipsticks and the pigments.. (and the cute servers! :lachen:)

Weird. What time did you get there? I was in the 8pm rush and after that I was drunk and nothing I wanted to buy was in stock. But me and my friend were sexually harassing the black guy with the snacks. I'm still not convinced he was gay like the rest of the little helpers.

My fave chick forgot to give me a sample of Bold and Brazen and I'm sad :(

^^And the wine? :lachen: Did they have artists at yours? I got a very simple "portrait" done (meanwhile another artist was doing a beautiful job of multiple portraits with a MAC sales person.)

We did harass the wine man. There were lots of intoxicated women in there. One was swirling the red wine like she was at someone's winery. Swirling that wine all out the glass on herself and the floor. SMH

There were artists but I didn't get a portrait. I didn't stick around long enough to get an idea of what the work looked like. By the time our 8pm group was let in it was closer to 8:30.

I didn't know you were in ATL!!! Well I came at 7 ish... I was 15 mins late b/c I had to redo my make up b/c I didn't like it. I was Looking Drag Queen... But Ummm it was packed to high heaven!! http://theperfectscore-zia.blogspot.com/2009/08/hanging-out-at-mac-fall-09-preview.html Pictures of the actual event!....

I know exactly who you are talking bout.... he was bald if I remember. I tried to get a pic of him but a heavy set white lady walked in the shot. He was a lil Flirty Flirty.... I like my heterosexual men and make up separate, Thanks.





So my complaints....


It was packed!!! They need to give out a 4/3's less invites cuz you know ppl bring they mama and dem. I brought my two best friends.
The food was aiight, nothing to write home about. I've gone to Arden B events at the same mall & they had Godvia Chocolate covered Strawberries, which was way better. They should of had some chips and dip and called it a wrap haha. (J/K) but the food was lacking......
The positions of the new collection was all up in the door, so ppl just huddled there. There were two displayed in the front, but they needed more. I don't need people all around me
Gotta spend $50 to get an ugly-behind drawing.... PUUHHLEEAASSEEE. I have a $100 ecard I've still never used, so I was just going to literally preview so I can spend online.
I've seen online pictures of the Hello Kitty and Style Warrior Launch parties at bigger MACs and those were truely a theatrical event. Atlanta needs to hurry up and build a HUGE MAC Pro store so we can bring out the theatrics.

I would love for them to open a big store in Lenox or Atlantic Station. I don't get why there's no Pro Store in all of ATL and only one free standing store and it is smaller than the counter I frequented in Macy's at home.

Yeah baldy seemed flirty. Those lil snacks with the prosciutto were good though. Or maybe I was hungry. :look: Ok I was very hungry.

[SoAnxious12]

to the op, i checked out ur blog... i have those same black and pink vicky's panties lol
but the second row of colors looks so pretty!

[PhonyBaloney500]

Wellll clearly each store does it their own way. I didn't have to spend a dang thing for my poorly-rendered portrait. They also had decent snacks. And the displays were spread out. The store I went to was pretty big though, NYC and all....

Yeah they don't have it like that in ATL... we have one smallllllllll MAC store and then tons of department store counters.

I doubt they will at either considering there are MACs at both locations... I want them to open up a warehouse hahhahahaha.

I think a good location for a MAC Pro would be Phipps... Lenox has enough MACs in each Department store.... but Phipps is more understated and quite frankly sorta dead as far as tons of ppl b/c its less affordable than Lenox. And given the "upscale" nature of it all it could really revitalize Phipps and remove some of its stuffy atmosphere... Lets Email MAC and call.. they actually listen to customers.

See my reasoning for not mentioning Phipps is because there's stores there I should not be near. They closed The Grape there iirc so I won't be tempted to spend too much...hmmm this may work.

I'll start bugging them tomorrow.
