Trying to keep the order small since $ is kinda tight at the moment. If I had the funds, I'd totally b/u Dramatic Encounter & Orpheus. Maybe they'll still be around when or if I get extra $...*fingers crossed*
my recommendation is to get BOTH!! is way better than regretting it later specially if you are low on money, ebay prices are a no no.

So I finally went to the counter and preordered, I decided to skip the EDE mainly because I rarely wear eyeshadow and recently purchased an Inglot 10 palette, and the vice from UD and these did not strike me as especial enough to purchase. I am in love with Glamourdaze lipstick, its gorgeous on the lips and outrageously fun its much better than the swatches definitely different from all the pinks I own and it pulls a bit light plum on me which I loveeeee. I tried feminine edge which I really liked, but disliked the other two fluidlines because they looked more silver to me and I hate silver so I passed on those. I am the one blush its gorgeous the MUA used it on me with a touch of Superb over it and I am in love! It looks great on my complexion the other two seemed regular to me so I didn't get them. The gloss sets are insanely gorgeous, and the little packaging box its super cute and I got the Lavish rose set and the Cocktail coral sets specially because I want to give my little girl and niece the little box so that they can fill with their little jewelry and their first MAC lip gloss they are about to be 12 they are only 2 months apart so all they talk about its makeup lol anyways overall this is definitely the best holiday collection MAC has had in a long time. My haul so far:

Outrageously fun X2
Glamourdaze X2
Dramatic encounter 1
Feminine edge 1
Superb 1
WoG 1
I'm the one X2
Lavish rose 1
Cocktail corals 1

I might change my mind about the shadows later but I'm in no rush, can't wait to pick up my stuff

Oh I like! Very Pretty!!
Ok. Ladies. I gave in and decided to buy Beauty. Here is how I've made it work for me... and of course there are photos.

I first put some Sugar Fresh lip treatment on to moisturize, then wiped off the excess. Lined and colored in my lips with Staunchly Stylish, then covered my lips with Beauty. It looked a little wonky so I added Pink Treat around the edges and added Bait lip glass. I actually like it and have found way to wear it. I really wanted to like it so I'm glad I found a way. The girl at MAC recommended Nice and Spicy Liner, which I picked up, she was a WOC but I bet this would look good on everyone, she lined her lips and colored her whole lip too then applied Beauty.

Also in the picture, Superb worn almost like a bronzer/blush with Small Vanity over it. If anyone was wondering. :) I dont know that I need WOG because I am loving Superb so much right now.

Thx for the advice! Btw, I never buy makeup from evilbay- I refuse to. I wish I could get both...I was trying to make this MAC haul small so that I could still pick up some much needed items from Sephora for F&F. If u had to pick one or the other, which would it be? Everyone keeps telling me WoG. Idk what color I am in MAC but I'm 117 in MUFE w/ dark brown eyes & hair, if that helps...

I think I've finally convinced myself that I don't need OF. I just played around mixing the violets and pinks I already have and got a close enough color to it. At least I think so. Close to what I want it to be anyway. More for ya'll! If on the very off chance it is available when I go a-swatching I might get it if I just have to have it. If it's sold out I'll live. After all I survived skipping Quick Sizzle.

When I previewed them at Nordies, I liked Superb but everyone keeps raving about WoG. Do you know if WoG is similar to Nars Albatross at all?

I will say that although my past experiences with the store was bad my current experiences with the store have been great. I sent an complaint email, and it took MAC over a month to respond with their generic "we're sorry for your experience" email and ever since then they've been super nice to me. :) But I still go to Nordie's cause I have my girls and I cant sit and talk with them and they let me be and shop. :)
Interestingly, I asked my favorite SA at the MAC counter at Nordies if she was employed by MAC and she said yes, she is. She attends all of the MAC product trainings and she works for MAC. She did imply that she is expected to abide by Nordie's rules, i.e. the amount of makeup that she wears.

I hate hearing about the cattiness and out right rudeness that some people are experiencing, especially if it's the entire staff. I think that behavior starts at the top and reflects poor management and should not be tolerated. Inexcusable!

Sorry, I'm trying to play catch up. In this face chart, what is the name of the blush and [Bwhat is the lipstick???][/B] Also, are the pigments coming out on the 25th? Does anyone know where there are piggy swatches please! I know Kiminos said a couple pages back but I can't find them to save my life? Is there anyone who can compare Love G-ddess, Moxie, Lickable, Show Orchid, Full Fushia? PLEASE! Help. Thank u.
