Nope, no restock...only 4 eyeshadows and 1 lipglass have been sold out. I keep checking at least once an hour for a restock. =(

Thanks. I wasn't sure because I was only checking the items I want to BU and they're still sold out. I think they will restock because it's their big holiday collection. I just don't want to miss out when they do. Please post back here when you see it.

Congrats on your academic achievements!

I'm still loving GD l/s, WOG and SV.

I've not worn make-up much the past week or so, infact I don't know if I have at all to be honest.. I've been so distracted with college. My Psych assignment was handed in Monday which I was up til 6am with and I just got my first English assignment back which I was nervous about - it's graded in 3 sections and I got 2 Merits and a Distinction, which in Canadian/American terms is 2 B's and an A, basically. So I'm thrilled. For personal reasons I didn't finish high school so my being in college is a complex story but these are the first 2 assignments I have ever done in my life that were working towards my future. Fingers crossed my Psych is just as good!

I was going to order Innocence lipstick and possibly a couple perm e/s but my debit card has vanished so I've had to cancel it and order a new one. Absolutely no idea where it went and I was absolutely moritifed. If only someone would be stupid enough to give me a credit card I could order them anyway, lol!

Been a rough week. I'm spending tomorrow in my bed, sleeping.

Yay great job! When your new card comes in more of a reason to treat yourself for great grades!

Yay, well done! I've also finished a couple of essays on the day that they were due using the "who needs sleep anyway?" method

I lost my debit card last summer - I left it in the card machine at the train station after picking up train tickets! I only realised when I got to London for the weekend a few hours later! Luckily I had a friend with me to lend me money, and I'd withdrew £30 earlier that day. I felt like such an idiot

Enjoy the day off in bed

They're all lovely over Innocence l/s too!

I'm trying to decide if I want to order Legendary from MM, or one of the GD blushes - any advice would be much appreciated

I've been using MAC's brush cleaner for when i have to clean a brush right away. How does MUFE's compare?

For more thorough washing, i'm using a tube of brush cleaner i got free with a purchase from some other company. So far my brushes are doing OK, but i gather there's better. I'm working on using it up, then i'll switch to something else once it's gone.

It's a very handy spray for a quick clean in between washes (I have a designated "brush washing night" where all brushes used during the week get washed together. lol. Except for my foundation brush because I only have 2 so I have to wash them more frequently). I use the spray mostly on my gel liner brushes because I don't have enough to last me the week and I like to use a clean brush for precise application. My e/s brushes don't receive much MUFE treatment because I have quite a few, so I only use the spray if I absolutely need a particular brush and that brush has a completely different colour on it. I don't use it at all for bigger, denser face brushes because I don't see the point.

Basically I spray it on the brush and wipe the brush on a tissue. It's not so much of a deep clean but it does get the colour off so the brush can be used with a different colour. It dries in about 45-60 minutes, I think. But I've never used a brush so soon after spray cleaning it so perhaps it would be a better idea to wait a bit more to be on the safe side.

Hope this helps

I definitely will, unless somebody else posts it before me...I always seem to be the last one to see restocks even when I check often...sneaky MAC usually does it when I'm asleep.

Thanks! I'm just overly proud due to my never having done an assignment before. Lol, aw! I tried for 3 weeks to get my Psych done, had it done 3.5hrs before it was due. I just seem to be one of those people who work well under pressure. Can't say I'm a fan of it mind - it stresses me to the point of wanting to pull my hair out.

Oh geez! At least you had someone with you! Funnily enough it wasn't me who lost it. I'd let my brother take it to get cash out and he came back in the house, I remember he did but I was half asleep and when I went to get it at like 7pm, it wasn't there. He's no idea where it's gone because he swore he put it back but I tore the whole room apart and his room and it just wasn't around so I figure he probably didn't put it back and it probably dropped out of a pocket or something. He was lucky I didn't kick his butt.

Thanks, I shall. Exhausted isn't the word! Go figure here I am though awake early on a day I don't have to do anything or go anywhere. Typical!

 

[PeachTwist]

What's the pink brush set like?

It's tempting me, albeit my hating it being pink and hating the bag it comes with. Is it the SE or SH? I've heard SE brushes suck but SH are good. It'd be nice to have an extra 239 etc though.

Sorry to quote myself, just haven't seen any replies and definitely need opinions before purchasing!

Well done! You have every reason to be proud of yourself!

 

[BuickMackane]

Indeed you are! I just ordered a Yachiyo. I was teetering and you pushed me over the edge!

ooops! you'll love it, i promise

i used it when i applied Small Vanity today and it worked a treat. i'm super pale and Small Vanity is far darker than my average blush so i had no other choice really.

let me know what you think of it when you receive it

 

[linainoz]

Well the Glamour Daze lipsticks are up on the MAC Australia website, ahead of being in stores on Monday. Lipsticks are $38 AUD EACH - that's about $39 USD! For 1 lipstick

I'm going to swatch in-store on Monday, and if I really like any one of the colors, I'll just try and add it to my haul I'm waiting for my parcel forwarder to get and send on to me.

 

[MACina]

....OMG!!!

678 posts, there's no way I can read all that. haha

Here's A Natural Flirt with Charcoal Brown in the crease and Orpheus on the lash line. ANF is more pearly pink irl.





More pics on the blog, the link is in my signature.

Dang, that looks so purty you just reawakened my lemming for Orpheus again but trying so hard not to do a 2nd order. Are you referring to Chocolate Brown pigment in the crease? That has got to be one of my fave piggies of all time (up there with Museum Bronze). Gorgeous (and I am so going to copy that)

Just checked out the "Give MAC" Gift Finder now on their website. Does anyone else find the background video of the GD girl walking toward you just a tad scary?

I think it's a really nice brush set, I'm really liking it a lot, haven't had any problems with the brushes being too stiff or shedding or anything like that.
