Got shipping notice for my late in the day order of Summer Opal, but my noon time order of LJ is still processing....

A few of my items should be here tomorrow

I see 3 or 4 different shades of BK there so

I love how it looks in the tube in the first pic which looks closer to mac's swatch

Prepare yourself for coral ( and neon!) as it is much more coral than pink. In certain lights and out in natural daylight though, you can definitely see the pink undertones clearly (at least on my lips!). I would say that the first pic in the tube is pretty accurate! Can't wait to hear what you think!

Hubs came home for lunch and commented that he really liked it, so that's a plus!

My BK shipped. The recent swatches are scaring me. I hope I don't look crazy.

Girl you and me both!

Girl you and me both!

I think it could look great on both of you, but it totally depends on what your comfortable with! It is more neon than I was expecting, but it's nice and bright for summer. I really hope that you both love it!

It looks pretty bright but remember u can always gloss it over to make it more wearable for u... Impassioned, was bright to me at first and I glossed it over until I got used to it and wore it sans gloss

The pink undertones may make it more wearable for you! I like it a lot more than Ablaze on me. Fingers crossed!

 

[pinkcrush]

The pink tones in it may make it more wearable for you. I like it better than Ablaze on me. Fingers crossed!!!

Ablaze is beautiful!!! *rummages thru lipstick stash*

I don't see how you could look crazy in anything doll.

Impassioned is gorge. It's bright as hell though. I really hope I love BK. The packaging for this collection is everything and I'd hate to need to return it.

I wish MAC employees were more knowledgeable. Chat people know nothing. Store people keep telling me "that collection is online only." Uhmmmm, can they please get their info together? What is so hard about that? One STORE, not a counter, never even HEARD of the collection!!! She had NO idea what I was talking about. Just wow

Been there on more than one occasion with different mac employees. I can try and understand if they aren't aware/well informed on exclusive collections, what I can't understand is when they argue with you about it. A few weeks ago I was at one the stores and this woman was asking if ririwoo was part of the permanent collection because her friend had it in the black bullet. The mua told her that was impossible because it had only been released in special packaging unless she had transfered it to a black bullet. When I told her she was misinformed she tried to defend her point. I got so annoyed that I search through my order history online and shoved it on her smarty ass face.

I wanted it to be more on the pink side like the mac swatch. I am encouraged that it looks more like it in tube pic. How about the swatch on her arm? That looks more pink like I was thinking it would look. NEON

Dab & Smoosh....is that how I'm going to have to wear this one

As long as the hubs loved it....it's all good.

@jaymuse , I'm looking at my UPSMI Tracking, and I don't see an estimated delivery date. I see the progress of my package (it's in AZ right now) but I don't see an ETA. Where did you see that? Thanks for the help! I've ordered from Macy's before and it's never came this way... weird! 

Same, mine doesn't have a date except the original March 9th from the email but that seems awfully long considering it said it was already at a facility in the state so I don't think it can be the 9th

I ordered lipsticks from 3 different LE collections, Cinderella, Toledo & Bao Bao from Macys and Nordies. All my packages won't arrive till next week (monday). I'm so excited! Ughhh i want it all now! :stars:

 

[Lipstickdiva420]

I'm debating If I do have to go the store to go to macys counter or go to a mac store.

I live in Cali so as usual...I'll be the last to receive my package because it wont be here til Monday (hopefully). Til then I'll live vicariously through you guys
