Peach ones are good for that... There's one I have from Mac which has been repackaged as a cc cream. Bobbi Brown also has in two formats...liquid pen vs. pan...

Thank you! I'm definitely going to have to hit up a counter this weekend and look around.

I hear the Bobbi Brown ones are similar to the Eve Pearl one I've been using. I might try those next.

The Bobbi brown corrector helped me a lot. The concealer was blehh.

I haven't received a shipping notice via email but the MAC site has a tracking number. Hopefully, I'll have my lovelies tomorrow.

If you like to rock browns, then Roxo will be more up your alley, but from your photos, I honestly could see it going either way for you. Just a thought, considering it's sold out and might be a PITA to get without overpaying. There will be other similar shades or a repromote down the road, I'd bet money on that.I have to disagree. I think Roxo is a great red with subtle brown undertones for NWs, especially as the undertones are a cool brown.
Not all work for NWs, but Roxo does for sure.
I agree it'll be best for NWs, due to the cool brown undertone, but not every fair NW is going to have the same flattering results, based on other factors, like eye color, hair, etc. It's not an easy, universal red, between the color and the texture. It'll look great on certain folks, but I don't think it's something worth paying extra on evilbay for, that's for sure.

Great! Even more excited to get it now!Actually, I think Roxo would look better on your coloring.

The plummy tone in it will be beautiful with your eyes and your pink lips will cancel the excess brown - it's the best lipstick in this collection for you, definitely (although I bet you could work Peach Beige too).
My Mangrove and Woodwinked are so satisfying to my face, it's been easy peasy for me to be personally underwhelmed by the lipsticks in this collection. I am all about the gloss though and can't get the

I considered Peach Beige and then decided I didn't need it... until it sold out. LOL. I skipped Proenza but those are beautiful lipsticks, You do mean Woodrose and not Woodwinked, though, right? Oh, and I can't wait for those glosses, too, especially Mirror.

LOLThat makes sense, only MAC should have it up tonight/tomorrow. Nordies 02/05 sounds right
why am I here...why is Roxo calling...Roxo is so impatient, I wish she would wait till I go in store!

I got the things I was curious about...threw caution to the wind and got roxo, the quad and... the blush. Yes, gasp, the blush! It may turn out to be a dud for me, but judging from karen's pics (not her description) I think I'll be alright. The glosses I'm not sure about. I don't use a lot of gloss, so I feel like I can just wait till I see in person.

yep Woodrose! Woodwinked is a cuter name
Peach Beige gave me the erased corpse lip look, a la early Lady Gaga. Actually wasn't that bad, but it's a certain look that I'm not needing in my life right now. Did that one for enough years in the past. Woodrose is modern and sexifying enough for me!

I can't wait to see you all's swatches..
I got in late, 4am, and crashed before even thinking about this being posted. Do I still have time for an instore or Nordies Launch?

That case is bomb. It looks so sophisticated and sleek.I much prefer the sturdy carry all case:It has a lot of different compartments and/or options to arrange compartments. Nothing ever broke as it is so easy to store and secure compacts, lippies, etc. The only downside: it's heavy!
Yes, people. Things. Streets is watching.

For you, dahling….Ruby if you want the most classic red or TR if you want a glossier Scarlet Ibis (it will be pretty darn orangey on you, I bet). You'd be a good Roxo candidate! You'd probably be a prime suspect for the compact too, as a matter of fact.True Red or Ruby?????????????????????
