Im NW10 and I cant see any circumstance where I'd be able to wear it without looking like Snookie.
I'm NW20 and I'm thinking the same thing. Bronzers are so touchy on me, and I certainly don't want to be orange.

I love all 3 lipsticks, though, so I will probably go to the store for the release and check out the bronzer while I'm there. I don't have any MAC bronzers! And that packaging is amaze. So glad I don't already have Riri Woo so I can pick it up in this cute packaging.

I like Pb and BGRR but I don't love them.. I'll try to get them but I'm not going to stalk online for them if I can't.

my riri woo.
The same thing happened to me... just dropped clean out of the plastic holder when I picked up the tube one day (I could hear it kind of wobbling around on the inside so I was careful to open it). I was able to gently kind of coax or stuff it back down into the plastic holder without leaving too many finger prints on the side and now it's back in action. Erine1881 mentioned this earlier in the Retro Mattes thread and her advice was don't store these Retro Mattes upside down and make sure they're not like that in your make up bags either (from shifting around). It hasn't happened to my other Riri RM's like Heaux or RRB or TTT (yet) and certainly not to the couple of RM's I bought from the actual Retro Matte collection (yet) and I hope it won't.

Actually, the drugstore e/s were copying higher end packaging of the 80s. Prescriptives, which launched in 1979, had e/s quads set up like that long before that layout showed up in the d/s brands. I still have one i got in the ? mid-80s ? of matte e/s ranging from deep plum to pink.
I think it's so cool how you still have makeup from the 80s. Don't know if you'd be up to it, but I'd love for you to show us sometime!
I've got one powder eyeshadow i got in the mid-1960s, a muted lime green. And a bunch of stuff from the late 60s/early 70s from Biba and Mary Quant. I have a box of stuff i've museumized because either it's no longer wearable but i hate to throw it out (like Biba & Mary Quant) or it's probably still wearable but modern makeup is much better, so i keep it for nostalgia, to remember what a lot of makeup used to be like.

You're right, tho, i should photograph some of it. Don't know where i'd post it.

YEAH...That makes it look kinda cheap...like a bag from marshalls or ross...lol
The cheap bags from Marshalls and Ross are copying $3,000 bags from Chanel and Dior. So the puffy look purse is actually very high end. Here a few of the originals.


This Dior bag is cheap, "only" $1,695.00

Here's the classic black Chanel, $3,700.00

And just for fun, a smaller Chanel bag in rose pink, for only $2,800.00
