Seems this one got an A

I'm getting this one.. and maybe the lipstick in Charmed, I'm sure. It looks amazing on Christine from Temptalia and since she has the same complexion as me, I hope it wil look good on me too. I've wanted a beautiful red lipstick for a while now but I'm not a red lipstick girl so it scares me a bit. Hope this lipstick looks good on me.

Here's Deeply Adored on my lips! (more pics and my review on the blog, link is in my signature)



It's even slightly darker than that.. it doesn't look orangey on me at all compared to T swatches!

Oh that's gorgeous... What does T do to her swatches, b/c looking at hers I dont' want it, yours, I have to have it!!!

I got everything I wanted -- which was nothing. I was so annoyed at the ridiculous price increases I refused to buy anything.

Does anyone know what lip-liners would go best with the lipsticks CIS, SI and LG?

For me, The Perfect Cheek (original one) gets A++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ LOVE it

I remembered that you loved TPC when it was released for the first time! I couldn't get it back then, but this time I managed to snag one.:eyelove: I hope I'll love it as much as you!

I will say scratch, claw and do whatever you need to do to get those lipsticks, though. I really do think I'll go next Thursday as soon as my store opens to get another Love Goddess.

I was able to get the 2 you thought were snoozers (CIS and DA) but i literally came on the second love goddess was sold out!! i ordered an extra CIS and DA to see if anyone wanted to swap their love goddess. grr. But imma see if i can get it through other sites just a bit harder when theres no date really. worse comes to worse ill be going to the mall thats like 30 min away since it has a mac store, macys, nordstrom, and bloomies there on the morning of the release. If i cant get it in any of those store on launch morning then there is no hope lol

I am not putting a lot of stock in the amount of stock the stores get for the October 4th release. It's not like I can call off work to go get a lipstick, and by the time I'm done working it will probably all be gone. I didn't lose any sleep over this collection nor will I, but I am perturbed at MAC for how little stock they released this morning. This game of cat and mouse is a waste of time (if you have to work! I don't mind so much when I am off of work). Now MAC expects me to sit around and wait for another possible stingy quantity to be released? No way!

 

[gracie90]

I'm kind of terrified for when this comes out in the UK!
I phoned my local freestanding today, and the MA told me in no uncertain terms that they're not putting aside ANYTHING, even on the morning of the launch day

Bought only the two blushers and Scarlet Ibis lipstick from this collection. The rest of the stuff didn't catch my eye (I will still stick to my Russian red for a Red Red. That's the best ever Matte Red from MAC which I love) and will save up my money to buy more blushers from Office Hours...

Scarlet Ibis look quite similar to Lady Danger when swatched on the hand, but on the lips, Lady Danger is a much brighter orangey red than Scarlet Ibis. I would still go for Lady Danger for a really bright orangey red look. Bought Scarlet Ibis for days when I wan an orangey red but not as bright as Lady Danger.

I'm in the same boat as you Peachsuns! According to some of the lovely ladies here, the collection will be up on Nordies' site on Oct. 2nd. It might pop up sooner, though. Hope that helps, if you wanted to purchase online!

I marked my calendar. I should be ready for it. Thank you, UrbanSweetheart!

I wasn't awake (Damn it) .. It sold out sometime I believe within 5 am to early 6 am West Coast time.

Hi everyone, I'm a newbie and I just wanted to say THANK YOU to all you wonderful folks! I discovered you guys around the Heavenly Creature launch and I've been reading post ever since. Because of YOU, I was able to keep up with this much anticipated collection. The last few nights have been pretty sleepless, but it was all worth it in the end.

Special shout outs to brooklyngirl and MACerette for the site alert and link. This is an awesome group of people...you guys ROCK!!!!!!

 

[Teggy]

Bah...I prepared to hike over to the mall on lunch to look at the collection. From the swatches, I'm just not feeling it. I'll try on the lippies, but I already have plenty of reds.

 

[realhousewifexo]

I don't know if anybody else has mentioned this, but I did a live chat on MAC and she told me that they were trying to obtain additional quantities, but she was unableto confirm if it would actually happen and that I should keep checking back to see if they are back in stock. This sounds promising, but I will still be stalking Nordies!

so basically an hr or so after it lanched. CRAZY. Sorry, keep your eye out for the department store launches. I hit the wall about 3am so I set my alarm for 4am. I hit snooze a few times and pushed refresh and it was finnally on the site.....I'm not gonna lie my heart jumped a little (not in a good way) when I saw it pop up on the screen. I probably won't be doing this again for a long while. Hype or no hype. I am exhausted. But I still want to go to the store and take a look at a few things,

 

[Spikesmom]

The ones they put out with the collection go with them. The mua said each l/s had a matching l/l.

Does anyone know what lip-liners would go best with the lipsticks CIS, SI and LG?
