[mymacaddiction]

thank you. It's pretty bad this time. I never get the flu. UGHHH... still can't play but i have swatched about every lipstick i own twice on my hand and reorganized everything i own whenever i have energy, LOL. I can't wait to join the land of the living again haha  Quote:

That is so kind of you!!!! Great suggestions! I checked and none have any lipsticks in stock. But thank you for trying! and I hope you feel better soon! Ps. Posting from my phone and could not get it to quote the right part of your post. Sigh....

Also just had confirmation Aussies that lipsticks are $40 each!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hows the price hike!!!!

I just did a conversion from US dollars, and holy cow! Your dollar is just about equal to ours. That totally sucks. I'm sorry. I also just yelled out to my SO and told him that Australia is off my list of foriegn destinations that I would like to move to.

I bought BBx3. This look great on my lips. I love it. I'll use it for lifetime lol

 

[ForeverJenn]

The only thing I regret buying is mall madness, it's not worth 16.50

 

[GlamQueen21]

I am in love with Mall Madness l/g!! It is gorgeous!!! I also love Ronnie Red and Daddy's Little Girl lipsticks!!

I hope to get more BB too!! Love it with my Vino l/l

 

[ChosenOne]

I hope to get more BB too!! Love it with my Vino l/l

As long as my lips are exfoliated and conditioned, I can finally make BB work on me as well, and I do love it! It really brightens up my whole face. Definitely leans more pink on me than coral, but still different enough from any of my other pinks to justify the purchase. This will be a frequent go-to lippie this spring and summer!

Annoyed! I did a splurge on this collection from Selfridges last week 12 items and they cancelled my order out the blue on the day I ordered! The items are still in stock and I still haven't got my money back so no parcel and no money :/ hoping I get my money back I'm not going to leave it lie as its not cheap! Will have to get my items on the 7th March when they come out in my local store.

 

[ocean286]

I'm having serious skippers remorse for Strawberry Malt..I wished I had jumped on that before it sold out everywhere.

 

[ocean286]

me too! the 3 things i bought last and was unsure of were my favorite... flatter me, BB and K&DT

I didn't get flatter me but, I do ABSOLUTELY love BB and K&DT! It makes my pale skin look brighter for some reason!

 

[Starlight77]

I hope you feel better soon!!

same for me!! I stay away from corally colors as they usually don't look good on me but since it has so much pink in it i'm able to make it work. so happy with them!! The flatter me REALLY does go perfect with them, you should take that last look before they are gone

now i want the nail polish too

Wow, that's definitely not okay. They took your money, they should have sent your order out. You should contact them and let them know the situation.

I have done plenty of times since the order but they're just saying the bank has hold of the money because they refused the payment then my bank is sending me to them it's like a yoyo! so I'm going to my bank today to see what is going on as it's a complete joke now. Hopefully I get it sorted.

 

[NATlar]

My money is now all sorted woo!

 

[MRV]

And I got everything I ordered! It's a relief to see they actually seem to have control over their stock these days! Despite most things selling out rather quickly in the UK.

 

[MACerette]

Yaaay! Just received my package from MAC UK too.

I got Flatter Me, Veronica's Blush, Prom Princess, Spoiled Rich quad, Betty Bright and Daddy's Little Girl. At a first glance BB looks similar to something I already have. DLG looks less bright than I imagined. I cannot wait to test them when I get home / tomorrow. Now to get my hands on Ronnie Red (probably) and Strawberry Malt (definately). I was going to get BS and perhaps Feeling So Good, but I think I'm going to skip, especially since I ordered from NARS last Sunday and yesterday and added Amour, Desire, Mata Hari, Exhibit A, Taj Mahal, Zen and Cactus Flower to my (NARS) blush stash.

NARS +

 

[MACerette]

What did you get? They shipped quite soon this time. I ordered last Wednesday, so 6 days is not too bad. When I ordered my S3/C3, Vera and Chenman stuff I had to wait 2 1/2 weeks or so for that devine package

NARS and Archie!

I got BB + Kiss Don't Tell, Daddy's Little Girl, Lucky in Love, Cream Soda, Flatter Me, Caramel Sundae, and the mirror! (And a sample of Strobe Cream - my first sample & SC ever!)

I think I also ordered last Wednesday. So we had the same delivery time! I think I get my stuff usually in 7 or 6 days now. Once it took a bit longer due to a 4-day weekend or something like that and once I got my stuff the same week - ordered Wednesday I think and the box was with me on Friday pm - and this was the Marilyn Collection of all collections!
