They must had went really fast cause SS is sold out again now.
Aww.. they must have :/ I have both a Canadian address and American address and when I checked out with both (to confirm stock) it didn't remove anything from my cart. It looks like only the Canadian stock has it now.

All my '90's ladies, thank you for the throwback memories. I miss my fav Doc's. They were yellow tennis ball material. TOTALLY THE SHIT! I wish I had them now.

I feel the same way... But I'm still unsure about which will work better for my skin tone. I just like SMHM by itself way more than SAS.
I thin SAS would be amzing on you from your avitar.

I'm surrounded by babies. I was an 80s girl. I know all about frost lippies, neon, rocking bold eye, cheeks and lips at the same time, spiky hair, final net and those little butane curling irons in my purse and eyeliner that came to a point in the inner part of the eye together with a cat eye.

My own personal rule is that if I rocked it the last time the trend came around (skinny jeans, neons, etc.) then I'll leave it for my daughters and not look ridiculous trying to be something I'm not again. The last time I was in Aeropostale (getting a Bethany Moda tee for my 12 year-old) one of the girls working there tried to sell me an ivory lace miniskirt from the collection. I'm sure I looked stunned for a minute and explained that I wasn't shopping for myself (at Aero, no less). She assured me that they have my size. I had to explain that just because someone can fit into something doesn't mean they should wear it.

Same thing happened to me at Rue 21. Some stuff I like there but umm not what I was looking for with my 13 year old daughter. She is 5'8 and could pull off whatever they have but I still have the final say. However I was asked last weekend if I wanted to try things on too and it was so eewy what she suggested for me.

I am NW18ish and they were close but still different enough to tell on me. That was just a hand swatch though. I can't really play until the 26th.

They mean plum in the inside color sense, as in peach lol.

I am literally laughing out loud at how much sense that actually makes. MAAANN now I'm kicking myself for not ordering it !!!

I posted a few 100 posts back about how I was whining that their color sense sucked. My husband being the ultimate smart ass, brought home a plum cut it open and showed me how that color COULD indeed be plum. I smh.

I put on Silver Sun today and I'm in love with it. I think I'm going to get Fathoms Deep and Sea Worship. It would've been great if I had ordered them w/ SS but I had to be sure I liked it. Online returns are especially annoying.

I was skeptical about these shadows b/c I tried the formula when they first came out and I was not impressed. It seemed powdery and would disappear with blending. Not this baby, though. I'll be at Mac bright and early Thursday.

Allura's video had an interesting point--she is wondering whether MAC mixed up the two shade descriptions--she thought SHMH was a little more plum. I'm not sure SAS is beige pink but it is lighter I guess (it sure ain't plum)
