They extended the code cyber for overnight shipping

I'm excited to get mine at first I didn't care so much but now I can't wait to see how it turns out on me

How's everybody enjoying their GF? I passed, but I'm excited to see how y'all like it

I received the nail polish last night. Haven't had a time to use it yet, but it looks like a color I will wear a lot. I passed on the lipstick since i knew i wouldn't wear it.

 

[BuickMackane]

Does it look anything like the gazillion other grey shimmers out there? Zoya Freja, for instance?

 

[Dreaming Dancer]

not sure yet since i haven't had a chance to wear it. I don't own anything by Zoya, so couldn't say for them. I tend to stick with OPI, and so far, no dupes come to mind in OPI's collections.

 

[BuickMackane]

I can't think of an OPI dupe either (at least not among the OPIs in my stash). I think GF might be a lot more original than I first thought. Enjoy it!

 

[ARmakeupjunkie]

I got my Grey Friday!! A thin layer by itself makes me look like I smoke two packs a day. With a little Herione on top, sexy sultry! Sorry no pic, I'm at work.

 

[MissTT]

Such a funny visual, AR.

 

[crayolaforeyes]

Got my grey Friday polish and lipstick. I used the polish already and it is really nice, maybe a hair too thick but really opaque, I used one coat only on it because it covered so well. The lipstick is interesting, can't wait to get home and experiment with it !

 

[crayolaforeyes]

Also was going to mention the polish when on looks just like graphite pencil lead- I don't have any dupes of this color so I think it is worth having!

waiting my for gray friday to arrive ......

 

[Spanky]

I didn't have the second day code because I did the FB thing & my GF arrived yesterday I was shocked because it takes forever for MAC orders to arrive. I put it on alone & it doesn't compare to my own comfort zone of funky LSs, I find the Estée Lauder Luminizer way more wearable, I love it on me alone. After I swatched it & saw it just doesn't work alone for me, I put another LS on top & it made a really beautiful color. Not sure I love the frost finish... But layering GF on a LS i don't like inspired me to open my Wet 'n Wild black LS & I loved the effect of the LS I put on top of it Cartoon Chic what was the NYX lipliner you were talking about? Is it grey or black? Now I feel like I "need" Black Knight. Are their any black LSs in MACs price range that someone can recommend me buying in place of Black Knight. & now I'm really looking forward to Strength's Firm Form (?) lippie. It's a matte with gold in it, right??? Hope everyone is having a good day.

I wasn't supposed to get my lippy and polish till Thursday, but surprisingly got it today! Unfortunately I have a pesky cold sore so I can't try it on just yet. Love the Polish color though! Just my style

 

[kimibos]

so gray friday is never going to look like the pic mac tweeted. by itself its a sheer dark metallic silver. it looks like the EL Gunmetal luminizer a tad more darker. and if you pass it more than 3 times it looks opaque, but then you need a lip liner to keep it in place.
and with zero eyeliner as a base its a dark dark silver color almost metallic black.

on top of such flare, the bright red became a dark red like deeply adored. i guess its a good lippie to experiment with but it doesn't fill my crazy lipstick craze?!
