Guys, are the Lancome Colour Design monos getting discontinued? They're not available in Australia (I feel like they used to be? Or are they a new product?) so I have to order through Nordstrom - the shipping is $40

Hopefully I can wait for a few weeks to pick it up. I have to get the eyeshadow in Drama! I haven't been this obsessed about a product in a long time.

If those are the round single ones I'm pretty sure they have been d/c for a while.

I would love to know what you bought from Givenchy, maybe you'd like to share in the Givenchy thread :)


I'm running out of words to describe how amazing you look. Just flawless.


Thank you :) He's doing OK, but now he has gall bladder problems. Mom has problems with her eyes... seems like there's something new to worry about every day :/

I'm hoping Givenchy will come out with new blush shades. Since they're revamping a lot of things and I assume changing everything to that couture leather look packaging over time I think there's a good chance there will be new shades soon. Then again, that would mean I'd have to stock up on Vintage Pink if they d/c the current ones.
I haven't tried the lipsticks yet...

Yup, there are a lot of threads.

This is such a pretty look, Pixie! I LOVE that you used Vellum. I have loved it since high school... I may even still have it in the larger pot with the screw top lid from the 90s...

I didn't go anywhere this weekend, but I still did purple for lupus and blue for ME. I was in a creative mood today, so I did a full face for my dear @Peachtwist. Believe it or not my eye shadow is blue, just darker blue. The lips are just Cyan Lip Mix. Did some PS Sunset Beach on my cheeks.

For Lupus I just did the purple lips. Magenta lip liner and Violetta l/s.

@burghchick You are rocking those lipsticks!!

I've been waiting for MAC Sin to come back in stock and it's in stock. I'm going to go ahead and pick it up, since it seems to go out of stock often (or at least every time I check for it!). I've also been wanting to try Mehr... unfortunately it's only sold in Pro stores and there isn't one near me so I can't try it, and light pinks make me nervous.

Though, if I'm honest with myself, half the reason I want it is because I like the name... Reminds me of a Rammstein song that shares the name.

Mehr is not light pink.. it's like a mauvey pink with some brown. I posted a pic somewhere here yeserday.. and I am wearing it. It's my addict colour all the time. I get antsy when I run low.. lol.

You like Sin.. it should be in stock.. unless you mean McQueens Sin?

good luck!





Yup, it is right now. It just feels weird only ordering one lipstick, I don't know why. Your description of Mehr makes me feel better about it, I have trouble wearing certain shades and it looked like it might wash me out. I may go ahead and pull the trigger - I'm skipping AA, the Osbournes, and probably Lorde too so I don't feel too bad about picking it up.
