Herione is such a gorgeous liner to pair with Lavender Jade and Dodgy Girl!!!

Although I do still want like an actual lavender liner to pair them with sometimes... does anyone know of any?!

I very much like using Hip 'n Happy - it's not lavender, but it brightens the color even more and works well as a subtle transition from the lipstick to my skin tone at the cupid's bow - I will line with it after I have applied the lipstick then blend well.

And congrats on those who finally got their LJs; I'm just relieved MLM will be perm lol
The original packaging(batch codes AA4 and A94) has a very strong green tint to it, which made me absolutely love it. The new packing(batch code A15) is much darker and has a lot less of a green tint to it, when I look at them in my lipstick holder the new ones look almost matte black while the old one is a beautiful dark greenish.

Anyone notice LJ is not even listed on the MAC website anymore? Only BK and RB (both still sold out). It's like LJ never existed!

I saw that before going to bed last night... and I got excited because I thought there might still be a chance that they'll restock Burmese Kiss! Also, I see that the beauty powder is no longer listed.

I like using NARS El Agua with my DG. It's a muted colour, so I think it makes DG mesh with my skintone a bit better.

Ugh I went on vacation and I'm unpacking and I'm pretty sure I lost my romantic breakdown and stone lipliner. I'm not sure how, I checked my hotel room obsessively to make sure I didn't leave anything behind but I can't find them anywhere

I'm sorry. *HUGS* Did you take it out with you? Could it be in a pocket or a purse?

Thanks @mango13, without the green they probably look like Temperature Rising/Pedro Lourenco bullets lol
The green is visible up close, but from afar they remind me of Pedro Lourenco packaging which I didn't like, but still with a bit more character than PL. I wasn't into MAC when Temperature Rising Came out, but I think that's definitely some of their best packaging. Earlier this week was my first trip ever to a CCO and I thought I might get lucky and find some lipsticks from TR but they only had the Bare My Soul quads(like ten of them).

Aw, break my heart. I had mine shipped to my grandma's house and just picked it up today. :eyelove: All the ladies in the house tried it on and it looked sooo good with my grandma's hair and coloring. She said I should let her have it since she looked the best in it. I was like, sorry grandma, I know I exist because of you and all, but this is LJ! I just checked eBay to see if I could pick one up for her and saw that there was a vendor with 10 available. 10! $40 a pop. That is so infuriating.
That kind of craziness pisses me off too.

I checked all of my luggage, I'm hoping it will turn up still but I'm not very hopeful I'm missing a smashbox eye primer as well ugh I used them in my friends car back in boston maybe I dropped them in there I'm not sure.
