My Firm Form has shipped!

What makes it spiffy is that the origin point is in Kentucky. What usually happens for me when I get a Kentucky shipment is that the package gets to the UPS facility in Indianapolis some hours later and then the next day to the Fort Wayne vicinity. The result? I get my package in 2 days. Since it's Christmas, I add two extra days for UPS holiday break.

ok here we go:





left to right:
deeply adored
love goddess
charmed i'm sure
absolute power
ruby woo
russian red
ruffian red
cockney
runaway red
rocker
vg 1
so scarlet
above: illamasqua drench
below: moxie

the difference in the pic above is minute, but charmed i'm sure is definitely darker red.
oh btw, the sales assistant matched brick liner with AP, though i guess that's up to personal taste.

also, i was unable to take a good pic of my face, and the all woman quad didn't swatch well on my arm. but it's beautiful! even if the arm swatches don't look exciting, i would definitely check these out in store before passing them up. the sales assistant who helped me wore the other quad, and it's also beautiful, though i wasn't sure it was going to be the best on my nc skin.

I admit I didn't stalk the site as much as some people have....BUT I did prob check it at least 5 times a day and more at night! All I wanted was pink pigeon!! Just one lipstick! I do spend alot on makeup but bright pink lipsticks ESPECIALLY MATTE ONES are my addiction and while other things I might really want I don't have issue with waiting for, or looking for a cheaper dupe before I have to buy it. SOOOO when I check the stupid site an hour after it's launched and pink pigeon is already sold out...THATS A PROBLEM! That's ridiculous! It never bothered me that people sale these le lipsticks on ebay for crazy amounts because I just seen it as, the people buying them are the ones deciding how much they go for...you can't charge people a price they aren't willing to pay. Before candy yum yum came out perm I thought about selling my ONE backup for extra christmas money, since I have nylon and barry m and no matter what I could always get another barry m should I run out of all of them. BUT this is freaking ridiculous! People buying so many that its sold out that fast is beyond ridiculous! Wheres the crap they pulled with the by request? They seemed to have no problem pulling people's orders who were just buying backups for themselves or a friend. I'm not someone who gets mad about stuff like this...it's there company, and they can run it how they wish...but I know pink pigeon was not more wanted then cyy and even cyy didn't sell out this fast! RANT OVER

My guess is that they did not expect it to sell out because of the release of candy yum yum which is similar. They did not put out a lot of stock. However check out yazmin she always has extras for spectras and maybe she can do a cp. I know that most stores have more pink pigeon and parrty parrot than firm form or strong woman so maybe check out your mac store today.
