I've always liked playing with stats and numbers.
Oh yeah Venomous Villains was another excellent collection from MAC. All the lippies and blush / BPs were gorgeous. I'm glad Archie Girls lived up to its hype. In fact, I bought more from Archie Girls than what I had initially expected or planned to hehe

Haha that's cool! I hope you'll love DLG. I just ordered a 2nd BU online and now it's already sold out together with all the other lipsticks! I literally saw it coming online and a lot of the items were never there like Oh Oh Oh (which is called Something Sweet online), the Caramel Sundea quad, 2 of the pearlglides, the pigments and most of the accessories, so strange. I also went to my counter this morning and picked up Cream Soda and a BU of Ronnie Red. I tried RR this morning with Cherry l/l and I can definitely see the difference on my lips between this and my other reds. It's more pink than Absolute Power and I just love it! I can see why this works with the Spoiled Rich quad. Normally I wouldn't like red lips with purple eyeshadow, but this has enough pink and it complements the purples actually. Here's a pic.

Love, love, love it. The eye look that you chose was spot on--you have gorgeous eyes---the entire look is just stunning!!!
Thank you! I'm wearing Da Bling over Let's Skate paint pot on the lids, Beautiful Iris in the crease, Vanilla on the brow bone and Winkle underneath my eyes. I wanted to try a pastel eye look with it. Normally I do a neutral eye with bright lips, but I wanted to change it up and I quite like it. I hope you'll get your order soon. I can't wait to hear your thoughts on the lipsticks and pigments!

Collection is out in the local mac stores tomorrow but I got 10% of my order with Debenhams so went with them which means i won't get my order till friday/saturday but wooo! Had to order on my phone because the products are only showing mobile web wise lol.

Lipsticks are Ronnie Red, Girl Next Door, Betty Bright and Daddys little girl, passed on the other two and the lip pencils are In Anticipation, More to love and Hip n happy. That's me done with mac for a while haha.


Not going to BU anything, well was thinking DLG but passed on a bu can always pick one up tomorrow if I change my mind.

I picked up an extra DLG in the restock. Is that what you missed out on?
Yup that's it. Been busy and what not house hunting. I'd be interested if you'll wait for Friday for payment. Sorry was sad so shopped for perm stuff on my wish list lol.

Just placed my order too, I'm getting

Prom Princess
Veronica's Blush
Oh Oh Oh
Ronnie Red
Daddy's Little Girl
Mall Madness

I would have liked to swatch the lippies first but as the Mac site sold out so quickly I'm afraid Debenhams will do as well before this is out on counters (and I can get to one) tomorrow. Don't want to risk that dreaded skipper's remorse!

MAC usually keeps there testers out even if the product is sold out well the ones here do, but you could even go tomorrow and swatch them if you don't like one that you've ordered or want it you can send it back/take it back to Debenhams, if you do like/love it then you've covered yourself by ordering :D

I managed to spend only half of what you spent. :) Only got the two pearlmattes and the two Betty pigments. That's me done with Mac for the month. What's coming out in April (in the UK) do we know?

Exactly what I'm planning on doing! The only counter I have reasonable access to is HOF, to get the Debenhams 10% off I had to order online so it was their website I was worrying about selling out :)

I need to stop debating whether to get a BU of BB and DLG now >< don't want to spend anymore and I think they'll last me a life time.

I hope so, I am kinda nervous how it'll look on me, if I don't like how it looks ill use it as an eyeshadow.

That's the only reason why I ordered online to, I was planning on waking up first thing tomorrow and being at the mac store 10 minutes before they opened LOL glad I don't have to now! Enjoy your haul :D

Today I applied Madly Magenta CCB as a base for PP and I love this combo

Evening Stroll CC should also work as a pretty base for PP.

That's what I NEED to know, too. A bit too early to ask though, they might not be up to date yet.

e wearing Daddy's Little Girl! It does make my teeth look yellower because of its tone. For reference: I'm not wearing lip liner and my skintone is NC15 :)

Here is the colour with flash, more accurate:
