Given I actually catch my FEDEX guy today, Wes and Luciano should be here today! Then the rest split between tomorrow and thursday. According to NM. they still havent shipped yet, though.
I finally got it at 3am EST. Phew!

Just as I was leaving for class, my order form TF arrived! I ran back inside and gently swatched them on my hand. I'm a bit disappointed, unfortunately. On my skin, Wes looks basically identical to Black Dahlia except a different finish. A little more sheer and obviously glossy (and maybe a TINY bit darker, I pressed harder on my BD swatch than Wes, though) Luciano is a pretty red, nice and smooth, but looks a lot like other reds I have. Luciano will either be gifted to my sister, who loves reds, or kept as a travel lippie or for my small purse when I need touch ups. Depends on how they swatch on the lips. Over the next few days, Peter, Alejandro, Patrick, Julian, & Alexander will be coming in the mail. Luckily those are from NM so if I don't like them... returns will be much easier. I think? I've never tried to return makeup to Neiman's. I definitely have learned my lesson about buying blind. I got caught up in the hype of the limited release. You got me this time, Tom Ford! But not again!

Too brown. I don't know if I should try it out and lose out on $32 if I don't like it or just return it immediately.

Hmm, I got Wes and am now thinking that maybe I will like it. I based my opinion off of T's swatches and hated it, but this isn't too bad...Just as I was leaving for class, my order form TF arrived!

Oh, no! I though it looked much nicer in the lip swatch. It's growing on me lol Well, at least you have time until it arrives to decide for sure but if that shade of brown is not your thing you might be better off returning and getting your $$ back.

The lip swatch is definitely better than the arm swatch, that's for sure. I just wonder how it will look on my rosy lips. I don't want it to look like mud, lol.

It's pretty much the same as returning to TF. In both cases you can only return unused product and you get a free return shipping label (although on TF you need to fill out an online form for a Return Authorization #). I believe you need to return to TF within 14 days and Neimans within 15 days. Although you can return to Neimans for a certain amount of time after that you'd be charged for the return shipping.Just as I was leaving for class, my order form TF arrived!

As long as you havent swatched/opened it, they will accept returns I believe.

I mean, they're super pretty. Maybe I'll just say lesson learned and keep them? I don't know.

I would say Keep the ones you got and maybe not get anymore!! The shades and the lippies themselves are actually nice!!

I totally agree! I was just shocked at how mini they were. I was expecting a little more.

As far as the size I guess it also depends on whether or not you tend to finish lipsticks. I prefer to have a bunch of different shades and never come near finishing anything, so I really like the idea of a $32 TF lipstick instead of a $50 one.
