Did you happen to order and can say how much shipping is? I'm debating if I should go ahead and put in an order. I'd prefer not to stalk the site in the middle of the night.

Heroine is the new obsession, in lipsticks of course.I saw a Heroine that sold for $100

If it is, it'll be back…..
Strong Woman is just as exciting, anyways. MAC knows what time it is. Look at how many neon bright pinks they rolled out until they just bit the bullet and made CYY perm. I think we can count on more shades like Heroine/Strong Woman/Seductive Intent coming down the pike, until it all shakes out in a final frenzy of permanent purple.

I'm debating whether I should just order this collection's lippies online as soon as they get uploaded. My voice isn't up for phone calls just yet, and I don't want to risk the ones I want selling out before I get a chance to find out if my Macy's is getting them or not. Unless someone wants to be the biggest angel ever and call them for me? XD

You are so right. It is the lighting. I took another one with better lighting but does not even come close to making it's justice.

I dont use MAC foundations. Most of the time I use Laura Mercier in Blush Ivory or UD Naked in 2.0.
I do have a studio fix powder thingy in NC15 and a F&B foundation in C2 that I didn't like because it made me look brownish. I am all over the place LOL

I just tried to call the Las Vegas Pro store to put in an order. They had me on hold for 10 minutes after I told them I wanted to place an order, so I just said forget it. I guess I'll be site stalking.

I haven't bought anything from MAC in a while. Only from their permanent collection since I've been disappointed in how they've been handling their LE thing. I guess I've been put off from giving into the headache of chasing down a LE item only to have it sold out in minutes and then have to wonder if they will restock or not. Idk about you guys but the last time they had a collection where certain items were hits people got carried away in the stores and ended up being greedy buying up the limited stock the stores had and then going on Evilbay and selling it for unfair prices
. I'm not sure I can bring myself to getting anything and giving into the LE frenzy again. However, I'm trying to make an exception with this collection seeing that I want that Strong Woman lipstick. That 'bright purple' as per the description peeked my curiosity. Hopefully it is a nice one and they make enough so that I can actually get one lol. Good luck ladies in stalking their website cuz it's going to be a battle like always. Just my 2 cents.

If you are lucky, you'll find Moleskin at a CCO. I saw it a few weeks ago at the CCO in Cabazon.That sounds sooo gorgeous. I love anything romantic.Thank you, liba! I can't believe I skipped Moleskin.
I can't wait for this collection! The lipsticks look awesome! I want them now! Thank you for the picture, Erin!
I wish I knew when the collection will be available online. I guess I have to stalk the site with you all.
It looks stunning on you! Thank you, CharlieKelly!
Does anyone know how it compares to Marilyn reds?
Agree!
It's at my CCO, too, along with Outré.That sounds sooo gorgeous. I love anything romantic.Thank you, liba! I can't believe I skipped Moleskin.

I don't need another red, I don't need another red, I don't need another red.....
You guys know how many red I have and I have posted pictures of me wearing them for all except Rocker. Does anyone think this one will look unique enought or prettier? Liba what do you think? I know you are very picky with reds and you like this one a lot.

Agreed! It sounds... "wrong" but it has lost a bit of that rush, that appeal. I'm hearing Heroine may make a return around April but we'll see if that comes to real life.
