Don't knock it before you try it. It looks nothing like the tube colour. It's one of those chameleon shades that looks different (and, IMO, very flattering) on everyone. It's also one of those lippies that lend themselves to being paired with lots of different liners to yield different effects. I bought mine when it was released with MMO and I still love it to bits

MAC really needs to sort out its logistic issues in Europe. Sweet mother of god, how hard can it be?
Do you know if they have them at counters?

This is pretty much how DLG looked on me too. The colour, I mean. Not the luscious full lips

I'm still trying to talk myself out of buying LiL. And you're not helping!Today I did a Betty look. Lucky in Love on the lids dry, Satin Taupe in the crease with Carbon to deepen it, Satin Taupe underneath my eyes and Vanilla as a highlight. I love how versatile Lucky in Love is. It's softer when used dry and when used wet it can be more intense. On my cheeks I'm wearing Cream Soda with Chanel Poudre Signeé as a highlight and on the lips is Betty Bright. Betty Bright is more saturated in real life, but very nice.
You had Sugarpill's Heartbreaker palette, no? How do you think LiL's base colour compares to Mochi?

I tried it at my local MAC store before I took it back to Debenhams for my refund to purchase GND from MAC! Oh Oh Oh was so sheer and unnoticeable I dislike lipsticks like that but then I should've tried it with a liner but glad i didn't incase i did like it afterall, didn't want to spend anymore money on the collection haha! I always like mine bold and bright but I made an exception with GND because it looks gorgeous with Hip n Happy liplinerDon't knock it before you try it. It looks nothing like the tube colour.

I don't have the Heartbreaker palette with me right now, but indeed I do have it. Going from my memories Mochi is bluer and I'm sure it has a lot less shimmer. I think Mochi is more comparable to Aquadisiac. The intensity is basically the same when LiL is used wet HTH.I'm still trying to talk myself out of buying LiL. And you're not helping!

Ow and the Mac NL site fucked up the order of my friend They shipped her order but she only got her nail polish and a note that they were unable to deliver Ronnie Red and Betty Bright. Luckily she was able to let the local counter to hold a Ronnie Red for her. I was trying to find a BU for myself of BB and I might have found one in the clearance bin. If Mac NL is unable to get her a BB she can have my BU. Now I just hope the girl still has that BB. I just hate that Mac didn't even let her know she would only get a part of her order. If they did she could have looked for another somewhere, but now that's a bit late. She ordered the first minutes the collection was released online just like me. I'm starting to believe there were never any lipsticks at all or maybe 5 or so.

Sad. Actually I was at the temecula promenade in temecula ca last night and the freestanding Mac outside the mall still has pipi papa and strong woman. They still have the quads too. I was shocked. Of course I have those lippies already lol.This stuff is really ridiculous: http://www.ebay.com/itm/140928056239?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1558.l2649 http://www.ebay.com/itm/140928056234?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1558.l2649 When will it stop!!!

Got my pic taken with Betty, Veronica and Archie! Launch here this afternoon. I already have Daddy's Little Girl from an online seller, so I asked my friend (who had a number - long line) to get me the Veronica's Blush pearlmatte powder. I wasn't planning on getting anything else, but when I swatched, it stole my heart!
