Went to get some back up for a few friends only to find out that I had misplaced my Nordies card while rushing. The associate called in obtain my info ( found the card while she was on the phone) however I asked her to check if I had any Nordies notes, surprise, surprise, there was one!  Did I want to apply it to my friend's items, sure, of course. I ended up lusting after Lust and it snuck home with me. The associates were raving about the 159 being able to multi-task. They made it seem to be such a miracle brush, lol I saw a look on one of the young ladies that was soooooo beautiful! She was wearing TTT e/s with a permanent purple pigment in the crease. She told me that she used TTT e/s wet initially then she applied a bit more and patted it down dry afterwards. Her make-up look was absolutely flawless She had on a nice pink lipstick that really complimented her look. I will post a complete haul shortly as me and my friends are done, done, done until Indulge. Divided loyalty equals divided hauls!!!!

I would get in so much trouble if I went shopping with you! Love it! I wish I had a Nordies near by...I am kicking myself for not getting a bu of Heroine...and this crazy weather kept me away from my MAC counter...by the time I was able to check this evening they had sold their last one an hour earlier. Can't wait to hear about your haul!

Also, for those curious about it..the status on the website for the 2 blushes remains that way because they allegedly don't have it in stock yet (they claim there was never a name mix up which we know isn't true).

Missing a Carribean, may have fallen out in car but too exhausted to go hunting for an island until in the morning!

I was bad lol. Ordered lust and simmer off of Nordies. Husband hopefully won't check my account but I haven't hauled much Mac lately and I'm sad over my missing nocturnal instincts. Plus this buying a house thing is stressful. So oh well lol.

I was initially thinking of getting Rio, got torn and confused then decided I was completely skipping all the MSFs then somehow ,someway Lust found its way to me. Lust can be tempting and overpowering!

I don't wear Mac foundation cause it turns orange on me so I dnt no my color as far as Mac but (I can wear nc42 and nw45 concealer. I mix them). but I wear Nars Cuba tinted moisturizer n I have adored its beautiful but u jus put a little on n buff it in so it won't look white. But wen u do it gives a beautiful sheen. I put it on first buff it a little then put blush on to make sure it buffed in. Then I put a lil more on MSF :) it very pretty . Get it.. jus buff it in well. I wan a bu of it. :) good luck

Hey everybody! I've been so busy the past few days so I haven't even had time to see how everyone's making out with their Tropical Taboo hauls!!

Hope you are all loving your goodies! I know I am.

Yesterday I went out wearing Exotic Ember applied in a horizontal line high up across each cheek, then blended mostly downwards to form a wedge shape, then upward just a bit to soften the upper line, then extra of the orange part alone across the high ridge of the cheekbones and blended in. So gorgeous!

I kept the rest kind of simple with Tropica over the frosty white paint pot from Baking Beauties and Midnight Trail p/l/l/ and Raspberry Swirl on the lips (was wearing a really girly flowered white chiffon dress).

Right now, I'm getting ready to go out with Simmer + Adored - trying to decide on Ablaze or Tangerine Dream for the lips. Gonna keep the eyes simple with some simple liner and some greys from Rainy Day quad.

I'm gonna wear the hell out of this collection's goodies this whole summer!

That part sounds yummy! i was trying to get that shadow and then think of something creative to have underneath. i think that might be a winner right there (the frosty white pp)
