In my opinion BB def pulls more pink on the lips and swatches more pink/coral it seems. Unless theirs two different formulas floating around?? I'm torn between bb or kiss and tell. I'll prob just get both,what's $16 more dollars right
Yes, and this is making me rethink if I want it or not. Venus is really all the pink I need although I do like the formula, but it better be peach, not pink or I am calling bullshit (again) on the stupid MAC color descriptions. The main reason I want the color story is for the finish, because the descriptions of the actual color are wackadoodle.

I just threw Fantabulous 2, Different Groove, Wrong Spell and Dior Flash 982 in my purse to compare them with Veronica Feelin So Good LG. Too lazy to get the well tucked away dark plum GD lipgloss to take with me as well. A well justified skip never hurt anyone, right?

Yeah, I am definitely hoping for more peach although it seems like it looks more pink on the lips. I am close to Karen's complexion from makeup and beauty blog and it looks very pink on her....hmmm do I really need another pink lipstick??

I'm not stalking either, hopefully I get my two lippies, but if not I won't be crushed. There are always new bright and beautiful lippies coming out in Spring and Summer collections, and I would actually prefer regular packaging.
You know, I think these are my same sentiments. Normally I stalk like nobody's business and I was really into this collection when it was first announced. I'm not sure what changed. Maybe it's just makeup overload. I look at all the upcoming collections coming out and feel more stress than excitement.

That is definitely the case for me, which it went towards alleviating my anxiety here, but it doesn't seem to help that I can probably think of dupes for just about everything (or at least near dupes). I will still stalk throughout the day if work permits)--ultimately it beats scrambling around afterwards with all the drama and stress)

I was about to totally skip this collection. I am looking forward to the April and Fall collections more. If this goes up today I will get two lippies, otherwise I don't know if I will purchase from this collection or not. I just don't have the time or patience to stalk today.

I think I can knock the pigments off my list. As lovely as the light ones are, I barely use the ones I do have.
Yeah, I was looking at the green one. But I have so mayn full sized and mini pigments that I need to use....can't justify another pigment purchase right now :)

Yes, I noticed that too. I think it may signify that they have all the data they need and no more time to collect more if it will be online soon. That's a good sign. Good thing I signed up DH last night. I tossed his number in too without him knowing so we will both be aware, ha ha. I shall not miss out at all
