did you find it more on the champagne side? I swatched on hand it it came off that way. I'll give it another try when I go back in store. I may have put too much on my swatching finger lol

No problem, I'm glad some of you put your orders in. I love that color and wish they would make it permanent. They should!
By the way, I went to Nordies today and tested the nail polish in Pistachio Creme and it was awful!! I put on 3 coats and it was still sheer!! Pretty color, but this formula needs some serious work!

I've never been a fan of their polishes. The colors are pretty but the formula more often than not is terrible...especially at the price point.No problem, I'm glad some of you put your orders in. I love that color and wish they would make it permanent. They should!

I finally got my confirmation email from Nordies. It was showing up just fine on the site. Right before the confirmation email I got a cancellation email and was all damn figures. Turns out it was for one of my fragrance samples not LW. Go figure. How likely are they to fulfill a back order? I've only had one prior and it was on MAC's site and they fulfilled it. I got scared for a moment lol.

Yet again, I'm loving these Mineralize Lip Balms!!!!
I'm wearing Cheery Cherry right now and it's making my lips look super full and fresh. Baking Beauty is probably the one I'll BU, though, because it's just the right yellowish tint to perfect all my nude lipsticks that aren't quite working for me. Again, you can apply these alone or on top of other products, blot them down and still not lose the color cast they give. I love the finish too, as usual - not too wet looking, just youthfully moist.
I hope these don't become one of those flash-in-the-pan products that come around for a couple of seasons and then never again (like the Greasepaint Sticks or the Big Bounce - which worked really well for me).

I haven't picked up anything from this collection yet but I love the lip balms. I'm wondering which ones I should get. Are they all pretty much little color? I can't check the picture window because everytime I do, my computer quits on me. Liba, which of the lip balms do you recommend? BTW I went to the Nars store on Bleecker and the MA asked which lip color I was wearing and it was the peachy gold mineralize balm from the last collection. I didn't even think it had that much color to it.

I've got very red lips, so for me, I definitely notice the color all of them add (the last batch and the new ones). It's not in your face, for the most part, but I can totally understand how a makeup artist would notice, since they see it all every day and can sniff out all the tricks, even the subtle ones.
If you like the gold one from Apres Chic, you will LOOOOVE Baking Beauty. That one gives me everything the Apres Chic one did but better (less gold sparkle, though, but I'm not the biggest gold sparkle fan anymore, at my age). The blue one is the only one out of all of them, old and new, I find doesn't give me much color shift, but if you have lips with a purple cast, I think it will show up very noticeably and give a great color neutralizing effect. Cheery Cherry and the lavender one are very similar on me; I got one of each and consider them BUs of each other, but as the summer goes on and I get a little more tanned, I think their differences will become more apparent.
Anyhow, Baking Beauties is #1 for me, followed by either the pink or lavender and the blue last, but for someone else, the blue might be #1 or #2, just don't expect it to read blue - at best it will be a pale cooling color.
