I think most of us added a few items to our original lists. I had 14 items and ended up with 18! You're in good company!!!
If anyone sees a BB for sale or is no longer interested in a back up you bought, could you contact me?

it was my favorite from whole collection and i think someone took it out of my purse today

Wow! That's pretty low, when folks start stealing lipstick

If I had an extra one it would be your's, but I'm afraid I don't. I hope you're able to get another! This is right up there with losing a favorite earring of something. So sorry!

it's my fault... i left the front zipper open. Not the main part where my wallet is just the small front one but it was because i had just re-applied it. I'm luckier that I had JUST spend that $100 gift card on the oz palettes. Had i not been convinced here by you ladies that i 'needed' it, i'd have lost $100 gift card too. i'm thankful that it wasn't my keys or wallet etc I sent a message to the person who's house we were at, i wonder if there was other stuff missing

and thank you again to the amazing person that pm'd me with a BB.

all that was taken was my BB lipstick and an 'empty' gift card but luckily i had just used it. very odd. this was at my son's Valentine's event. who steals stuff at a preschool party. (and it wasn't a child) i had my bag next to me on the adult table the whole time. someone must have brushed up against me and went for the gift card and took the lipstick too.  someone had contacted me in pm about BB but thank you!!

Omg how rude that someone would do that?? Let alone at a preschool event, what kind of examples are they teaching their child.... Well if u see a mommy w a Betty bright looking lipstick u can give her the shame on you look!

Did you wear a gloss with it?
did a light day look with it today. TM, Flatter Me, poised blush, Boyfriend Stealer and just Eyeliner and mascara. So no gloss. I really liked it. It is like a true plum on me. I think Liba described it perfectly. I think I looked pretty cute. I'm going to repeat it tomorrow. LOL

OMG... I just seen a post on Instagram with someone's lips of boyfriend steeler. I had no idea it looked like that. Maybe it's just her photo but man I wish I got it now! Check shivanig90

[COLOR=0000FF]Awesome haul Naughtyp! :stars:  Enjoy it to the fullest!!!  [/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF]I hope FM works for you MACJunkie---if you think it appears ashen try a spritz of Fix + or Mineralize Charge Water[/COLOR] [COLOR=0000FF]Enjoy Skratikans!  :cheer: When you find 'the one' BUs are the way to go.  I've regretted not BUing some things and I'm still kicking myself for it.[/COLOR]  :(
I am trying to lol! I have really liked everything I've tried so far, but I actually got the flu last week, (I wasn't even on Specktra while I was in bed for 3 days straight lol. that means I was really bad!)but I think it was some sort of. blessing in disguise because I left work early and just so happened to passby the mall on my way home (lol) and was the first one to get to the Mac store and got boyfriend stealer lol. I had already went to the pre party and it was out. I went to Nordstroms and the Mac store again on launch day and they were both out. then I went to Macy's the next day and they didn't have it either! but I finally got it ;) I've worn mall madness, which is pretty but I'm not in love with it. I have 20 very similar mac lipglasses ( they were all I used to buy!) Strawbery malt I do love tho!! it's so pretty all by itself I will be using it all up I am sure! daddy's lil girl lasted so long on me the other day It's my new fav ;) Prom princess is nice and so is Veronica's blush. I think I have must have too much makeup already that is similar to all of this! cuz I knew i would like it all but i just don't feel super impressed even tho l love the packaging! my second biggest haul ever, I HAD to have it all but I still feel sorta empty? I dunno lol am I making any sense lol?

Omg! I just depotted my Betty quad today and let me tell ya'll-IT WAS A BIT€H!! I purchased both quads so I really wanted to depot one of them (for now). There was soooo much glue on the insert. It took forever to pry loose. Then I had to melt the layer of glue off before I could heat up the black insert itself to depot my eyeshadows. Sheeeww! What a job!

Loving DLG on you!

DLG is a fave of mine as well. I was tempted by Oh, Oh, Oh but I skipped. What does it come off looking like on your lips?
Well, I think I'm finished with this collection. I finally ended up with:

Betty Bright x2
Oh, Oh, Oh
Kiss & Don't Tell
Ronnie Red
Daddy's Little Girl
Strawberry Malt
Mall Madness
Flatter Me Pearlmatte
and Veronica's Blush Pearlmatte

I was really surprised by what my favorite products ended up being. I thought for sure I'd be all about the coral lip colors, but Daddy's Little Girl and Oh, Oh, Oh ended up stealing the show. Not that I don't love everything else I got, but those two are really stand-outs for me, personally. Ronnie Red is glorious, but I just don't wear a red lip all that often. It will be amazing for special occasions, though!

I was kind of hoping to get Prom Princess, but I guess it just wasn't meant to be. If I see it in stock at a local MAC or on a site that has free shipping, I'll probably get it. I'd also really like to find a backup of Daddy's Little Girl, but it's not a necessity. So that's my final haul! Oh, how glorious it has been.

This is me wearing Daddy's Little Girl. Not the most flattering picture in the world, but I feel like the color representation of DLG is really accurate.

I'm a NC15 would you say I'm best skipping on Prom Princess with how pigmented it is or would you say personal prefrence. I do have pink blushes such as Pink Swoon, Well Dressed, Peony petal and Love Cloud.
I'm also NC15. I have to use a light hand with Prom Princess, but I love it! I like using it in conjunction with Veronica's Blush PM. So pretty. I have Well Dressed &Peony Petal and this one is much different from them. I think it's worth it

I'm now starting to think that I should have purchased Boyfriend Stealer l/s even though I told myself to skip it since I have both Yung Rapunxel and Dramatic Encounter lipsticks.

Absolutely. I've worn it so many times, including today. You're only limited by your own imagination---or like me, lack there of. But, there are a ton of You Tube vids with lots of ideas. I have a MAC Pro Palette filled with shadows in the purple family, but I still purchased SR and have managed a different look each time.
Making me want... LOL. You and GlamQueen 21 are my fav enablers of WOC. LOL.

For me Pin Up Purple is the reason I will buy it. Decisions ><

Archie Girls is being released on the UK MAC site either tomorrow or the 20th :eyelove: so I'm going to be eyeing the site like a hawk! What I want up to now for my NC15 - Veronica Blush - Flatter Me - Cream Soda - Prom Princess (still unsure) - Ronnie Red - Daddy's Girl - Betty Bright - In Anticipation (to go with Betty Bright) If I feel I need a back up of one of the lipsticks ill go to the store release day on the 7th March, also left getting Boyfriend Stealer as I want to see it in person first! This would be my 2nd time splurging out on a collection, the last one I splurged out on was the shop cook collection my bank balance is going to HATE me :(
