Awe, girl...I'm sorry. I think you should still go to the party tonight. Maybe you can pick out the stuff you want, have them hold it and pick it up on Thursday?
thank you ;) I feel a lot better now that I have talked to some of my fellow makeup addicts! lol I am still going to go to the party and test everything to make sure I REALLY have to have it. I actually have an amazing boss I called him to tell him to call me as soon as they can hand out the checks and he could tell I was crying and he said he would let me borrow $100 for my makeup party! I feel kinda lame doing that but I'm going to accept his offer! now I just need to decide what I really want the most, I can pick up the rest on Thursday if they don't let me hold it till tommorow. Thanks everyone for being there for me ;) I just had a temper tantrum and had to share with people who would understand!

I'm around an nw15 and I actually like the way it looks on me. I also like that its sheer as well,it can be hard for us pale ladies to pull off light colors. if you happen to have mall madness lipglass it looks gorgeous over GND.
Actually. I just ordered that a couple days ago. I should be getting it next week with GND. I will try that combo together when I get it! Super Excited to start playing with my goodies!

LOL!! Seriously! I'm as pale as it gets! I wonder what lip liner would be a good to pair with GND?
We call that Jellyfish skin. I have it

you will be able to wear GND. With a lot of those pale ls colors, you can't just cake them on. They look better done lightly. They are also great for wearing something like DLG over it. Lightly of course.

did anyone happen to get an extra betty bright or ronnie red? I wish I just got them on the first day!

nvm - Just ordered BB.

Is it just me or is the veronica collection not up on Macys?

What do we think about DLG on pale skin? (Say, an NC 15 to 20.) I love the color and I've never had anything like it, but, to be honest, I'm a little scared of it! I've been debating whether or not I should get it ever since swatches were first released. It's so beautiful, I'm just not sure I can pull it off.

Gotta say, the UD Oz the Great and Powerful palettes do absolutely nothing for me. There's a color or two i like, but the palettes as a whole i just wouldn't be likely to use.

Whew!
Saved!
So much other tempting makeup out there...

Now i'm thinking of maybe getting Cream Soda blush... I don't wear colors in that range much (i'm Team Purple!), but it seems like it might be light enough and not too warm of an orange for me. Guess i'll try to remember to bring my brushes with me and hit the MAC store early on Thursday... I didn't bother to do an arm swatch before, but now i'm starting to weaken, with all the nice swatch photos here.

At least i am absolutely confident that Prom Princess is way too strong for me, so no temptation there.

Does any of you girls know when MAC or any of the other department store websites will restock?

I'm wearing the NARS Light Reflecting Setting Powder again today. I continue to worry that i'm ruining the pressed powder because i can see where my skin care has gotten on/in it. But it still works a charm! Sheesh! Maybe i'll pick up the loose for my makeup at home, since i got the compact to carry around with me. Amazing stuff!

Why don't you try using a brush with the pressed powder? That's how I'm planning on using mine when it arrives.

Yeah, thats why I've only been using the pressed on naked skin. But, that all goes out the window if I leave it in my purse for touch ups. It keeps the MU so pefect for such a long long time that I'm thinking a touch up won't be needed. SO happy you love it. Agree

Cream Soda is lighter & no where near orangish. Its lovely

When y'all are writing Lush Lilac, i am guessing you're referring to Lush 'n' Lilac Cremestick lip liner? If yes, could you torture me more by posting a picture? It sounds like a color i wish i had...

Yes, it is Lush N Lilac cremestick liner. It was one of THE best colors MAC ever did :( I'll see if I can get a good shot of it. But, its no longer available.
