MAC Dare To Wear Haul

I've been on my no buy for almost a week now? And so far it's going pretty good. But in a way it's making me itch more to buy stuff! I'm back in Hawaii for about a week and maaan I have to fight the urge to NOT buy $1 lashes from Don Quixote and NOT walk into Sephora!!! But I keep reminding myself that I have a ton of stuff I don't really use and should really start reviewing a lot of my products! But before I went on my little no buy I got a few eyeshadows and one of the lipglasses from MAC's Dare To Wear collection. The colors reminded me of crayons! They're so bright and colorful and the lipglasses that came with them were in skinnier, longer tubes. I wanted at least half of the colors that got released, but if it's permanent or pro, I usually skip it because I can always get those later and I prefer to buy them already in the pan form anyway.

Dare to Dare Lipglass

Sassy Grass really reminds me of the color of grass! I don't own a green MAC shadow that shade of green it's so vibrant! Crazy Cool really reminds me of Beautiful Iris, so if you own that you probably shouldn't buy it, but I think it's slightly lighter and less purple than Beautiful Iris. I probably shouldn't have gotten it, but I like how it's more on the whiter side? than purple. Shock-A-Holic isn't as pigmented as I thought it would be, but I love purples! It reminds me of a matte version of Nocturnelle (another favorite!) but I'm not sure how it compares to MUFE 92 - although I did get it before my no buy! But I think Shock-A-Holic is a more true purple and Nocturnelle is on the plum-y side Zingy is super bright, too and it really reminds me of Electric Eel! I have Electric Eel from the Manish Arora palette, but not in an actual pan. Zingy is slightly on the greener side of blue compared to Electric Eel.

After I took comparison swatches I was like, man maybe I shouldn't have bought these! But I really think I'll make use of the purples. Zingy I was thinking maybe I should return it but I don't really return things at MAC unless its the wrong foundation shade or I REALLY hate it! Hopefully I'll do a tutorial or something with these colors soon, but we'll see what I can conjure up! I saw the new Dazzle Lipsticks at MAC when I went last week, but I really didn't like the glitter in them! It's just way to sparkly for me. I usually reserve the dazzleglasses for special occassions because I hate when you wipe your lips and there's a TON of glitter stuck with no color! Anyway did you guys get anything from the collections?
