I bought bateaux and ensign....i don't even know if i like them anymore. ensign is just so..metallic pink. i didnt expect that. I don't have anything like it I think, but I feel like Ensign, Viva Glam SE, Starlet Kiss, and even moonstone lip gelee are in that same...frosty pink category. Which I rarely even reach for

And bateaux is just a frosty bronze. Which i thought would flatter me but I think I look like an alien

Sorry guys I'm a little crabby lol. I've been making so many damn returns lately, not only to MAC but other places and I'm just frustrated that nothing ever works!

You and I always have the same lipstick problems. It's either too dark, too bright, too frosty, too something...

I don't mind Ensign though. I don't see it as metallic, I see it as a pearl highlight which I much prefer to frost and glitter.

That's exactly what I was thinking as I was reading the last few pages of this thread!

I tried Ahoy, There again today. I was kind of on the fence about it, but then I tried it with Whirl l/l as suggested by one of the MA's when I bought it, and love it! I didn't have any other make-up on and it looked so pretty all on it's own. Now I'm thinking Ahoy, There with a little Shore Leave on the lids, mascara and a touch of bronzer on the cheeks and I'll be good to go on those mornings when I sleep in! It's the only glaze I've ever liked!

When I went to my normal counter today, they had sold out of all the e/s except for Illegal Cargo and Pandemonium, Hey Sailor, and Buoy-o-Buoy. I was not all that surprised, because the eyeshadows that did sell out are a lot safer (IMO). Illegal Cargo was very unimpressive to me, I actually considered getting Shore Leave but due to them selling out of it I got Beautiful Iris (a perm).

i bought Bell-Bottom Blue, Mutiny and Lark About, which I all love! I did get Love Knot but the purple/blue-ish color showed up on my lips too much, so I just returned that one!

I got a sample of Lark About and when I had seen it at the counter, it was an immediate nahhh but my MA gave me a sample to see how I feel about it. But today I was playing with it, and I really really like it! It looks sooo pretty. I think I will do a look with it along with BBB.

I just have to share how much I LOVE the Naughty Nautical nail lacquer!! I just had a fill-in yesterday and it soo pretty! I have Russian Navy by OPI as well and I think MAC's is a much prettier color. When I swatched them on paper, RN looks more like a dirty dark purple blue, whereas NN looks like a clear dark royal/navy blue. I can't stop staring at my nails, I LOVE this color. So ne one who shyed away from NN because they have RN, GET IT, its SOO much prettier!! I would post a pic, but I don't have a camera and I'm not speaking with the person whose camera I borrow, haha.

Do you use Prrr lipglass and like it better and that's why you don't like Ensign? I hear Ensign is a pinkier verision of Prrr. I'm just curious because I love Prrr.

So I checked out the collection at Nordies this weekend and I bought NOTHING! I had Mutiny, Port Red and Love Knot on my list and I wasn't all that impressed or in love with anything to warrant buying or even B2Ming for them

I have Sky Blue Pro e/s which is close enough to Mutiny IMO so I passed on it. As for Port Red, as pretty as it is I've got enough reds. Plus with the Red Holiday collection coming out in Oct/Nov, I'm sure I'll find something that'll tickle my fancy then. Love Knot was gorgeous in the tube and in the swatches/fotds I have seen on here but when I tried it on, the blue was all I saw. It just didn't look good on me.

I actually feel pretty good for not getting anything for NN or Dazzleglass...with the way the economy is going, I should spend my money a lil' more wisely SLASH more $$$$ for Cool Heat

I decided to pass on Ensign, and I don't have Prrr, but I swatched them side by side, and they are similar, but Prrr is definately peachy and Ensign is a pale watermelon pink. They have the same frostiness in each of them though.
