well, i usually completely avoid the MAC online-only frenzies......
the hassle to uniqueness ratio is usually too low for me and i just skip.
THIS TIME, though, it looks like I'm gonna have to join in the buffalo stampede, partly for the beautiful, rich color and especially for SEMI-MATTE AMPLIFIED - I mean, what is that all about?????
One thing - I didn't bother with Ruffian and to my surprise, all the nail sets were at my local store last week. It seems they got a big stack of them in unexpectedly, without any forewarning. They didn't even have a display for them - they just stacked a few up at the registers. Maybe as a huge L.A. store, they'll get a few of these lipsticks in too? Here's hoping!
