Well, the post office didn't deliver my lippies because the package is "undeliverable"?!?!?!?!?!

They better not send it back to MAC though. I will be majorly ticked off.......... I usually don't have problems with shipping.

I hope my lippies arrive safe and sound.
They usually attempt again the next biz day before that happens. I think you have at least 2 more attempts.

Urgh, I really wanted Heaux but apparently we don't get this colour here in Germany. The collection's been up for a few days now on the MAC site but no sign of Heaux. Nothing else is of interest for me, so I'll end up skipping this one.
Did you check the regular lipstick page? I had problems finding her for a bit.

Lip swatch and comparison. I'm going to hold out on a full review. It is way too creamy right now but it's possible that's just because it's soft from the UPS truck. We'll see.
Wow-how helpful is this!! Beautiful comparison. I think I'll like the 'new' Heaux just fine. It's not as dramatic, or backup worthy, as the OG one but still a pretty enough color.

I wore "Heaux" today and personally to me it feels like the amplified finish, albeit the "Pure Heroine" amplified finish (creamy but with more slip than normal and, as a result, less opacity). My cremesheens have a borderline gloss feeling to them - like a bit more tackiness - which I don't really get from this. Either way, the color is GORGEOUS. Makes me want to pick up D for Dangerous from the mattes since the slight transparency takes away from the color a bit. The gloss finish makes my lips so full though. xD Maybe I can pair them up. =)

Edit: Here's a pic with it on. :D

Because it starts off looking like you already had oily food! :lmao: :pp:
Very true. Lol.
I wish I had a rich person to buy me lots of things I don't need. I wish I could just like put an add on Craigslist that's like "wants sugar daddy/mommy to buy lipsticks and fancy purses, will offer nothing in return"
It would be nice to have a Christian Grey in my life. It would certainly make things easier. Lol.
Nope, I got How Tropical and I ️ it, I basically get every nude lipstick MAC releases lol
I used to rock nude lipsticks a few years back. At one point I was obsessed trying to find the perfect nude shade. In fact 30% of my lipstick stash is made up of nudes. I've purchased a few this year and last to add to that collection and NEVER wear them. It's shameful. Lol.
I never wanted Rebel so I don't have it. But below @Honi: Maybe [@]KGeezy[/@] can do it for you.
Okay.

I think pairing the two,is a good idea.

Definitely. And nowadays, Mac puts out so many collections there are bound to be some not-so-exciting ones. Hopefully going into 2016 they will really hit a home run!
Hopefully. Either way it doesn't matter since I've been dabbling in a lot of other brands over the last 2 years. I'll still be a'hauling lol. Did new Heaux finally show up on the CDN website?

One thing I have learned from this thread is... I need OG Heaux

She probably does! I know I made a comment about cremesheen vs amp on her VAT eyeshadow post (I also asked where the lippies were), not sure if she ever approved it.  I know! I have to play around with it more, either put it on top of OG Heaux or line my lips fully and put it on top. I didn't have high expectations to begin with, but then when I heard it was amp I got excited... then putting it on was like womp womp for me.  Gorg on you. They usually attempt again the next biz day before that happens. I think you have at least 2 more attempts.
I need to do the same with it. I'm also not liking how "watered down" the colour looks once I put it on. It's pretty,but lacks oomph unlike it's counterpart.

Lovin the new Heaux! It feels so smooth on my lips, unlike the Riri Heaux.
