My lipsticks arrived! No issues with the lipsticks, but I didn't get notified until an hour after they were already delivered. I'm even signed up to receive text alerts, so I don't know why I didn't get instant notification. Weird.

I love each of them for different reasons. I don't know if I'm missing anything with the old CYY, but the new one is beautiful. It's still very neon. Moxie pulls more of a lovely watermelon pink on me and is darker than Impassioned. Rocker is a sultry red wine shade and surprisingly not as dark as I thought it would be. Love them all!

Here are some liner suggestions based on what I have in my stash for colors that are close to the lipsticks:
NYX Plush Red is very close to Moxie
NYX Hot Pink is a little darker than Candy Yum-Yum
NYX Auburn is similar to Rocker but lacks the red/burgundy hue
Yayyy!!

My three most used lippies right now are Watch Me Simmer, Pink Pigeon and Flamingo. I have a smidge left of my first Flamingo, but it's a lustre and those get used up the fastest. I've used just a little more of PP than WMS, but I wear PP a bunch. I'm hoping CYY works out as more of a BU sustitute for PP because I don't ever want to run out of it!
I love WMS. I missed out on Iris and luckily got WMS through a CP here. I am still so grateful for that. I am hoping I don't go through my lustres too fast. I bought CaC w HC and it's an awesome but not in your face color. I wonder if any of the new cremesheen pearls would be similar to Flamingo.

I think there is a new cremesheen that is very close to Flamingo, but I can't remember which one that is. I hope someone can confirm this! But i remember looking at swatches and thinking it looked similar.

It definitely is not Coral Bliss, I know that much! I kinda would be mad if there was a real dupe for Flamingo considering I have BU's lol.

I think that Sunny Seoul looks the closest but I could be wrong lol. I'll have to check these out after Style Seeker.

I got my package earlier and I must say, I LOVE MOXIE! I love CYY too but as someone else mentioned, it does settle into fine lines due to the matte formula. I tried to minimize that by adding a little but of lip balm underneath and that worked pretty good. Overall, it's not that bright like others have said and actually fits my skintone pretty well. I'm an NW47.

Bait fails in comparison for me. It's just ok. Haven't tried on CoC yet. But it is gorgeous in the tube!

On Fb, I said "Canada still waiting for Candy Yum Yum restock... including me D;"

"MAC Cosmetics Sorry Anna - They disappeared in a blink of an eye. No plans for more but Lickable Lipstick is a beautiful alt: http://bit.ly/MACLickableLipstick."

soooo.... I guess my money went to Sephora for urban decay and tokidoki... sorry MAC, as much as I love you and have been a loyal customer for over 5 years... the trends have gotten more and more ridiculous. I used to enjoy the laid back feel of collections and where everything was well stocked to last a few days at least. I might not even bother with mothbrown... idk. MAC really knows how to get me down these days D; If I was a US customer, I would have been able to purchase with the few restocks, but Canada has been neglected D;
Grrr... So I guess Canada won't get a restock. Was wondering if I had missed a restock today (skippers remorse). I also think CYY and Moxie sold out in Canada before the US site. No doubt most of their inventory was shipped to the US. Can't say that I'm surprised about that :( ,,,sigh

I tried candy yum yum over embrace me lip liner and it's still very bright, but it warmed up the color enough to make it more wearable and flattering on me.

I put CYY and Moxie on last night before taking all of my makeup off for bed, and CYY was such a fun, pretty color.

But Moxie. Holy wow. That lipstick blew my socks off! It looks like a red on me, but with those luscious blue tones in it, it is something really, really special. I'm a big fan of reds, warm or cool, and this has jumped what I would consider the best of the best, straight to the top. SO GLAD I got a backup.

If there is a restock, I will bypass any more CYY for another Moxie...maybe 2. Never been so in love with a lipstick, definitely HG material.

Did I mention how awesome Moxie is?

I just convinced myself that I was going to skip the l/g!!! Hmm...Well, if FoF is still available when the e/s launch (and I'm sure they will be), I'll throw one (or two) in my cart...or I can just suck it up and use WINNER again today, haha.
