MAC for Marilyn

Scarlet Ibis is a ( very ) matte lipstick, very bright orange ( I purchased 4 out of 5 Marilyn lipsticks, the textures are great and Scarlet Ibis is a repromote from the Iris Apfel collection ).
To me it's a great colour though I am not used to wearing bright red orange or orange shades in fact.

I received the BP and TPC. Haven't tried them yet, but the packaging looks really cheap in real life IMHO.

My mom said she would come with me tomorrow to this person's apt. I printed out the proof that the package was delivered on Tuesday and signed by him/her. I just hope there is no problem.

I will keep everyone posted. I am also going to put in another complaint against UPS. Such a shame. They used to be such a good company. At least for me.
There's still the chance that it all turns out well.

A lady in my building once signed for a parcel for me and than vanished into thin air for two weeks. It turned out that she was the flatmate of another resident (so I didn't recognise the name) and both went on vacation for two weeks. She apologised when she returned and I was happy with my goodies! I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you - I hate it when there's trouble with parcels.

And for anyone still in search of a particular item, my counter is still reasonably stocked and nothing has sold out as yet and I'm happy to do a CP.

Would it be possible for anyone to help me get items from this collection? I got nada and am looking for Deeply Adored, The Perfect Cheek and Love Goddess. I want the first two more than LG, but if I could somehow score all three I'd be happy. Heck, I have a BN never opened Cult Nails Clairvoyant Nail Polish I would give up towards them.

I received my douglas package today which included Forever Marilyn, Love Goddess, Deeply Adored and Charmed, I'm Sure. I immediately tried on all the products and sort of did a mini photoshoot with the lippies. In all the pictures I have on Forever Marilyn, but you can't see how beautiful it is. I thought it would be matte, but in the pan you can see tiny shimmery particles. It gives a really soft glow to the skin. I need a BU. The first picture is Scarlet Ibis over Redd lipliner. The second is Charmed, I'm Sure over Cherry. The third is Deeply Adored over Beet and the last is Love Goddess over Beet. I also need a BU of LG and DA. I'm so happy with all of these! I swatched all of my red lipsticks together, but if I took a picture it didn't show the difference too well. CIS is a tiny bit lighter than Runaway Red and DA is a tiny bit darker and more berry than RR. Russian Red, Red Racer and Ruffian Red do not look like any of the Marilyn reds. BTW excuse the hair and the rest of my makeup. I've had it on for the whole day and didn't feel like fixing it for the pictures:p

I posted those Belk's lippies almost 3 hours ago. I thought they'd be gone in a heartbeat.

LoveSpree - I didn't realize you were in Aussie. That's probably why you can't check out. The company is pretty small and I'm sure they don't have many international customers. I'll PM you.

They all look GORGEOUS on you!!! Reds are really your color. I can tell that you have the BP on. It is so amazing that I never ever want to be without it. They need to make the BP in a full body jar

Really gorgeous on you. I have the same as you I think but I just tried 2 Love Goddess and Deeply Adored. I went to the M.A.C store again today and purchased Carine Roitfeld nail polish in Underfire red, I am wearing it on toes ( feet ), just love it even if it's probably dupable. Curiously enough I didn't take any Marilyn nail polishes ( very dupable too ), but I did buy the Beauty Powder. Scarlet Ibis is great but the others too, so vivid and intense !

if i was mac i would tell ebay that i want my products off their site just like OPI did with transdesign (which i thought was awful cause their prices where amazing!!

) you can also track the sellers by their paypal accounts. their home address and their real names. which you can then compare to your data base to see if they are pro, workers or regular costumers. they just dont want to do it. im pretty sure no one is going to pay those $450 so they can rot in hell with those lippies!!
