I don't get mine until tomorrow.I finally got my Ruffian Red!!!I still have to try it on but so far I am happy. Everyone has kinda moved on and I just now received it lol. Stupid standard shipping and slow UPS.
Thank you! I used to be afraid of red, or anything that wasn't mauve! I'm glad MAC brought out the lipstick addict in me lol. Corals, Reds, Purples, Pinks and alllllll that's good!What eyeliner are you wearing in this ^^^ pic?
You look stunning! Red is your color
That sux. I'm sorry you had to wait forever too. Any consolation, I have to wait till friday to purchase anything from HC. I really really hope everything doesn't sell out by then. I could order from Nordies or something tho but still.
That's no fun.! I hate having to wait but I hate paying for shipping so I usually use free standard shipping codes so by the time I get my stuff everyone has moved on.
I'm trying to become Leonardo Da Vinci with my makeup! And I agree, it's great seeing everyone's photos. It's fascinating to see how the same color can look so different on others, and it's interesting to see how different people wear the same color (with lipgloss, liners, dabbing or full on, etc.).
You're welcome and yes us southern ladies definitely should stick together! As far as nudes for people who are 5 shades darker than you.. I would look into colors like Taupe, Half N Half, Velvet Teddy, Freckletone, or Spirit. MAC has a lot of great nudes and great lippies in general... our permanent line tends to get overshadowed by the collections. lol
Never tried Taupe, but I love Half N Half, Velvet Teddy and Spirit. Freckletone is a lil too peachy for me to love. Creme in Your Coffee is my perfect MLBB. For a flesh colored lip that leans slightly pink...
I'm NC25ish and these kind of nudish shades are part of my core office colours, particularly in the fall. I just can't get to the concealer as lipstick look; I need something a bit deeper. I wear some of these pinky browns as my version of a nude. I liked Half N Half but found Velvet Teddy not quite right for me. I have Twig and Brave (a bit pinker), Kinda Sexy (lightest shade I own) and my old faithful, Mocha. Slightly deeper is Fast Play. There are so many gorgeous perm colours; until this year that's all I owned.
I like this one a lot too. I didn't buy it because I already have so many similar colours.

I wonder too - it's really odd. I hope it doesn't impact other countries; I know there are members (im)patiently waiting for it to be launched in their local market.
This would scare me into asking for a CP! Guess I better BU the gold one for sure now.
