Which of These MAC Me Over Lipglasses Came with Me to Lunch?

August 10th, 2011 by Karen 50 Comments

mac curvaceous lipglass

“I wonder if I’m burning enough calories to get a cupcake.” That’s the thought that kept going through my head in San Francisco this afternoon as I shivered on my way to and from a late work lunch. It was freezing in the city! And all I had on was a dress, a light jacket and sandals.

Not good.

It’s my own dang fault for forgetting how chilly SF can get in August… On my way home, I stopped by Neiman Marcus to warm my heart with new fall makeup, specifically a yummy Le Métier eyeshadow kaleidoscope kit with pretty purples and bronzes (I’ll post a pic soon).

Before I headed into the city, I tried on some of the Lipglasses from the upcoming MAC Me Over collection. These are $14.50 each ($17.50 CDN) and arrive on counter a little later this month.

I really like Curvaceous. That’s the one I wore to lunch today. I think it looks kinda cool-ish in the pic below, but it leans more toward neutral on my lips.

Take a look, and let me know what ya think. 🙂

Your friendly neighborhood beauty addict,

Karen

P.S. So…I zonked out early last night, but not before watching the new True Blood! All I have to say is WOW! This season HBO resurrected a show that had one foot in the grave, LOL!

SPOILER ALERT!!! STOP here if you haven’t seen the new episode yet.

Okay, even though I like seeing them together, I have to keep reminding myself that Amnesia Eric and Sookie can’t last. Sooner or later the old Eric’s gotta come back, right? And LOL! Pam’s coffin? Why am I not surprised that she’s a pink satin girl?

How was your hump day? I hope it went off without a hitch.

    Chilly? Does not compute! Right now I would consider trading my spare EvRev for a weekend someplace chilly!

    These look awesome on you, but those milky glasses are so tricky. Do you use a liner?

      Hi Amber,

      Come to SF! You could easily walk around all day in long pants and a turtleneck. 🙂

      I totally know what you mean about the milkiness. For these pics I didn’t use a liner. I applied one layer and then I patted it in with my finger to help it settle. It seems to make a difference.

      LOL, thanks. Lloyd was a HOT MESS yesterday in the wind. I’ve found that if you have control issues bangs may not be the way to go.

      Are you ready for the weekend? It needs to hurry up and get here already!

      Hi Alex,

      Thank you! I love it too — it goes great with yellow tops. I got it a while back from lulus.com. I just checked their jewelry section and unfortunately it’s not there anymore. They do a pretty good job of restocking stuff, though.

    I’m not a fan of the milky glosses, these colors are pretty, but they’re a pass from me. Did you get your hair cut? It’s cute! I still have a sweatshirt from SF I got when I was 16 because it was July and I was dressed for Summer, and it was cold! It’s 20 years old and dang near threadbare, but I loooooove it!

      Hi Stef Smith,

      It’s funny you mention the sweatshirt… when you live in SF, you always know who the tourists are because they walk around in packs wearing “San Francisco” sweatshirts in the middle of summer. What did you do during your visit? Did you see Alcatraz and go to Fisherman’s Warf?

    and on a 🙁 note, im sad to report that lipglasses are already $15.00 a pop. le sigh.

        Yes! I’m planning to pick up Moleskin and Mythical e/s, Curvaceous and Social Light lipglasses, Oh Oh Oh l/s, and possibly Stunner blush depending on swatches… want to wait to decide until I see those floating around! Cindy Sherman is going to bankrupt me, though 😛

    OOO Karen I can’t wait for you to review Le Métier eyeshadow kaleidoscope kit. I just discovered this line on a new Makeup blog called Messy Wands: http://messywands.blogspot.com/ – Xiao does many reviews of the Le Métier makeup line.

    Also, Curvaceous does look good with your skin tone. I think Wee Coquette looks really good too!

        Hmm I’m really digging on Wee Coquette, but I need to save some money.

        HOWEVER…

        I did just buy L’Oreal Le Gloss in Nude Touch and Golden Splash (They were on sale at CVS – buy one get one 1/2 off) because your review was so good. Totally digging on the colors, non-sticky texture, and the flavor/smell! Great buy, if you ask me. Definitely worth the money.

    You are right, Curvaceous does look fabulous on you! I like Illicit and Social Light.
    I feel like I know what is going to happen in TB, you are right btw. I liked old Eric and Sookie better though, I thought they had more chemistry, and their juxtaposition made it interesting.

    Hey Karen! I love your beauty blog and been reading to it for a few months now. I’m actually moving from los angeles to san fran to be more exact geary street in the tenderloin area next week. And I’m kinda freaking out where I can splurge for makeup when I move up there. Any places around there I can go for a good buy? Any help will do. Also a weather update to how it will be in the week would be cool! Cuz up here its reall hott! Thanks Karen!

    Love Curvaceous! A lot of MAC’s lipglasses tend to look the same on me but that one looks like it has enough pigment to be noticeable. It’ll definitely be a part of my next order.
