the newly added mac makeup collection

I get your point about the non-cruelty-free makeup, although MAC do claim never to have tested their makeup on animals themselves nor to have engaged a 3rd party. (You may have different information, I have not done any research on this, only a Google search.) Anyway, I tried options on different skin tones earlier and there are definitely swatches that I can use on darker skin tones. But it is of course a matter of taste, MAC is not exactly subtle.

Edit to add:

I have to admit I don't put makeup on my male Sims (maybe the occasional eyeliner for dramatic effect), but I am not hating the blush and lip color on my Sim Sean.

One of the eyeshadows was fine (the neutral one). I understand that the random inner corner splotch is the way it is on purpose but the other two could've been so much better if they spent time blending the colors better. They just look a little awkward with the harsh lines.

Don't even let me get started on those eyeliners. Looks like the sims weren't able to get their liners to match on the first try so they just kept on drawing until they ended up with those gigantic liners. Wish they would've at least given them some texture.

The lipstick basic lipstick was ok. Not a big fan of the two-color lipstick. Not a huge fan of the gloss either, the upper lip's texture looked a little weird and didn't like the last lipstick either, wasn't able to find any skin tone that it would've looked good on.

The blushes are definitely a lot better than the ones we already had BUT it looked almost invisible with darker skin tones which is really annoying because the makeup in S4 never looks good on dark skin tones...

Also, isn't mac one of those brands that literally no-one uses anymore :'D I've never owned a single mac product because I always thought it was too overpriced compared to the quality of the products I had seen.

Atleast some of the makeup fits with the "I live in a trash heap and don't have a mirror to do my makeup" vibe

Rofl I almost spat my coke out at that.

I've never heard of MAC (other than a big Mac lol) but I guess I'm classed as old now since I'm over 40.

LOLOLOL

I really like the lipsticks, the blush is nice, and I missed they eyeshadow. The eyeliner is, uh....well, it definitely lines the eyes.

Doesn't MAC kind of brag that their focus is darker skin tones? At least it used to be. It probably is a matter of taste though.

Some of it is actually quite nice. The two tone lipstick (if thats what you call it) is quite pretty, and a couple of the highlighted eyeshadows are pretty too.

The eyeliners are just :lol: Naaah not my type.

I can't really complain about free stuff. :blush:

That's pretty much how I see it. I mean, I have no issue if others have complaints and I am certainly not loving most of it for my Sims, but I always look at every swatch of every single item and I will find things that I can use. And them I'm like "Yay, free stuff!". :D

Looks like my aliens got some new make up. :mrgreen:
