You should be fine for the first year or so, you'll just have a lot of lectures!
I'm a medical student, and sadly both doctors and patients tend to frown upon "obvious" makeup :( I tend to stick with pinks, peaches, golds, browns and beiges.

I also just realised - I'm really surprised Parrot e/s wasn't up for voting in this. I do wish Cool Heat had made it though - I love the look of that colour! But I'll definitely be buying Jete, Moth Brown and Guacamole.
I wanted cool heat too. I was really disapointed t didnt make it in the voting on facebook.

I can kind of understand that we have to appear "professional" - but as long as make-up is applied properly, I don't see what is wrong with colour. Maybe that's because I love colour so much, though. What about nail polish? Although perhaps being a medical student you're unable to wear it for H&S reasons. If you have though, "professional" colours then, too? I may just have to add a "pop" of colour with bright eyeliner if necessary lol.

I know I want moth brown ,jete, flash of flesh and bait. I'm not really sure about any of the lipsticks. I don't really do neons. I'm not comfortable in them. I wear secret lover over dish it up to tone it down.

to be fair i missed it but a lovely member asked if i wanted to buy one off her which was great. for retail too so i was pretty happy :)
aw that is a shame if you can't wear some brights :( maybe you can get away with some bright liner? :)
lol!! it does suck to be 'international' sometimes!
Ahhh - very nice of her!

Yeah, the bright thing won't be great, but I suppose it'll make it more fun when I can wear brights. I wear them everytime I wear make-up usually.

It does suck to be international - totally agree. In this case I'm *kinda* happy because it gives me time to save.

My list for this col is short and clear: candy yum yum, moxie and jest. That is if i`ll be online the 5 minutes it will be available. I`m expecting the ls to be big sellers, do you think they will go fast?

The lipsticks always sell out first. The l/g seems to seel out last which I find strange because at my Mac counter the l/g always sells out first. It must be the region I live in.

Yep. I'll be stalking like a mad woman because we know it won't be on longer than 5mins. IF that. I'll be going nuts, stalking everywhere. Is it JUST MAC that will have this collection or will other retailers get it also?

I'll be doing that too. I REALLY want Moth Brown, and Jete. Ordering from the german MAC site is kind of like playing the lottery. A lot of the times things are sold out before they are even visible under the 'What's new'' section. And my orders got cancelled more than once because things were sold out even though they were showing as still available. I missed out on a couple of things I really wanted because of that.

I do not like it all when collections are exclusively sold on the MAC site.

I just looked up swatches of everything so I could refresh on the colors. Jete is so pretty.

My theory is that here in Washington women tend to like easy quick makeup more. And while I tend to reach for brights and reds here to counteract the rainy weather the fastest sellers in makeup here tend to be browns, taupes and greige.

I think your right. I live near olympia so I was thinking the college had something to do with it but the theory is still the same...quick makeup.
