Yea it is on its way suppose that is something lol
It has been pretty cold here so I am pretty sure you will get PMP in one piece. That is what I was worried about melty or broken stuff.
Did you post a pic of you in AS and Siren Song? If not I want to see....and if yes then I need to find it lol
I haven't posted a pic. I suppose I should, I just have a hard time taking pictures of myself because my phone images are terrible, and my camera is so big (it's a DSLR) I can't hold it and take a picture of myself.

Just got home from work & I was excited to see a little black box - until I opened it. The only thing I ordered from the MAC website was Delphic & disappointed is an understatement! I thought it would at least have a sheen or glow, but NOTHING! The packaging is gorgeous though. Thankfully I was able to get the other things I wanted from Nordstrom (fingers crossed). I just called MAC & asked for a return shipping label. Definitely not going to let it sit forever. NC50 btw.
don't say that. I'm a NC50 i order delphic and AS.........

I actually did for the SF powder foundation. I recently went in and told her all my issues and she tried two colors on me, and she even used the brush I use to apply it at home (the 163) and She put one color on one side of my face and one color on the other, and I went outside and looked in natural light and decided on my shade that way, but I was used to the way that powder wears. With liquid you never know if it's going to oxidize or how it will look in different light. I feel like I really need to put a full face one before spending the money, because I already have so many bottles. The powder shades are not the same as the liquid shades. So I am NW10 and NC15 in liquid and an NW18 in the powder. Check out the in between colors they have recently added, it might help you get a better match.

Yes you should! I would love to see even if you say it is a crap phone image.
Thats a huge camera by the way lol

As just gives me a kiss of color and I'm an NW13. It I go heavy on it, I can use it as a cheek product, but I'm not sure it's going to do anything for you, it's really light and very sheer. Maybe go to the store and try the tester before you touch your AS, and if it doesn't work you can list it in the clearance bin?

I felt the same way about delphic. It gave a slight sheen to the skin but I have magnetic appeal for that so it wound up useless. It's not even a highlighter lol aphrodites shell? Fuggheddaboutit....

Are you having it shipped to an APO? Girl, I know all about that. I am waiting on my stuff too. I paid for my AS in Euro, so that's about $45!!! I hope it works out and you like everything you ordered.

To be honest, this wasn't a good nc50 girl collection so don't be too down. There are things to work with, but IMO no WOW products. The packaging is really the standout for me.

Yes, the packaging is amazing. As always, it would be nice if they would make more universal collections, though... at least for the big collections.
