Addicts have to support each other

I don't know what to say!! "Wasn't hydrating at all" And "the lip color pilled"????!!! It is one of the first shades I got and the only reason I went ahead and ordered more. It feels so good on the lips and the shade lasted on me forever!! The finish actually made my lips look full & smoother!! I have nothing against the review or the reviewer but I strongly feel there was some other factor involved if the lip color did that!' http://www.temptalia.com/christian-louboutin-ronron-silky-satin-lip-colour-review-photos-swatches

I "like" how her swatches of the lipstick look lovely and you see none of the pilling she griped about in her review. Her lip swatch sure did look smooth and even to me. *rolls eyes*

 

[JerseyGirl]

I forgot in other things these can be used for. The eyeliner would make great knitting needles. I don't think lipstick knows the difference between dry or humid heat. I could be wrong. Just a thought.

They'd be beautiful knitting needles! Just a dry heat wave here because we haven't had rain in weeks, no occasional shower to cool things off or water the plants - the lawn is toast.

My Tutulle & Pluminette should arrive today. I'll post pics when I get them.

Yay! Can't wait to see pics.

 

[NaomiH]

Oh, you're getting the slow walk shipping. :frenz: Oh man, Nordies has been SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO freakin slow lately. :frenz: hboy: Who knows whats up with them. Yes, take your time on the lippies & wait until you see more swatches coming in :sweat: sweating it out lol. :frenz: Oh Naomi, I hope so! It should be ok, it's supposed to cool down after today.

Can't wait until Summer is truly over and we start getting more lippy friendly weather!

Yesssss! Why not show us the way it looked later? It looked really nice in all the pictures she showed us!!

 

[Medgal07]

oooo-weeee, am I behind on this thread! Need to catch up & see what you lovely ladies have been up to.

I've been haunted by ordering more of these all weekend!

So far I have: Matte Red & Ron Ron, and Rose Du Desert (sheer) is on it's way.

I can NOT get Impera (thanks a lot Vee

) Bikini & Tutulle out of my head, so I'm pretty sure one of these will be next.

Some maybes I'm tossing around are: Bengali (probably Matte), Belle Bloom, Pluminette & Petal Rose.

What to get next....

You're off to an awesome start!!! The waiting is torture!

I'm excited for your lippies! Mine are SUPPOSED to be delivered tomorrow, too.... But I got an email from UPS at like 3am that some "mechanical failure" is delaying my package and now the tracking has no updated ETA. :'( I'll probably call. It's in a town only 4.5 hours from here...

Don't they know this is urgent

I only ordered Bengali from there because it was on preorder everywhere else!
On a brighter note, Rococotte comes today!!

Mine too Vee. Then when I check UPS it hasn't updated either. I did get a separate notice from UPS------Lou Beach will arrive tomorrow. Oh crap---I just got a notice
from Saks that Maya will arrive Saturday but Zoulou will arrive Thursday. I need a spread sheet just to keep up. Fedex will text me when Maya is out for delivery and
I'll let my neighbor know to pick it up.

I refuse to ever purchase anything by D&G based on their stupid comments about same sex marriages are not fit to raise children. No cure for stupid. Hit them where it counts, as in their bank account. I was not aware of the Sephora issue. The one closest to me, is not all that great. Then a better one is in the same mall as NM. So I just go to NM. I have not seen a Sephora that carried CL, be it the polishes or now the lips. But then I live in the boonies. The one's in the city might have these. Don't know....Scottsdale Sephora I don't think carries CL. Been awhile since I was there.

Dry heat is Death Valley, and it is stupid hot, dry heat or not. Rain is coming your way, rained all day in the Midwest.

Is one of those kitty's a Lynx point Siamese??? My brother had one and named it Coco. My goodness that cat could talk!!! As for hate mail. Heck, I got a few pm's that were rather nasty. I have found comments that are less then kind when it comes to our makeup, fu** off and bite me cover it nicely. Ah MM you know you love me, even when I an seriously in Ashland. Getting back to the person who took the time too actually look up the price of something. Really, they have nothing better to do? If you don't owe that person money, what do they care about it? When someone asks brother how much one of his trail bikes cost, he shoots back, are you going to buy one? If not, then why did you need to know?

As I was doing my 2 step bathing last night. First a shower to remove the mud and shave my legs, then the actual bath I was thinking of all the things we can use the containers of CL products. The lip liners can be used to tussel up a turkey, in the garden for label holders, ice pick, stabbing potatoes, tenderizing meat, earrings. The lipsticks can be used for earrings, string together to make a belt, wind chimes, or a bikini. Watch the fashion blogs they will so show up on someone as one of these.

I do hope the product lives up to the hype. I am sure it is will be a good product. But will it really be all that better then Mr. Ford??? CL's nail polish does wear like steel. As for Grandpa Sugar Daddy's, no dentures. That is beyond nasty. I often wondered if there was botox for sagging balls??? Oh and I missed my connecting flight, shucky darn. Better to ask for forgiveness then permission.

:werd: :lol: so many packages Meddy!! Can't wait to see your swatches!! I just checked and the Nordstrom order finally updated!! Looks like Bengali is coming Tomm but since it's ups I think i will have to wait till 8.30 in the night like last time :haha: Looks like Lea nu is also in town but it has to move to local PO before it could be delivered (thanks smart post)! And the lost package from CT wasn't lost but I was apparently tracking someone else's package all these days!! CT updated the wrong tracking & spring responded with the correct one :haha: !! I almost redirected someone else's package to my place!!

Ron Ron was my first shade I tried on and it is AMAZING!! It's creamy, smooth, super pigmented, stays put & feels amazing on the lips. And I have dry lips & am super picky about anything wonky, drying, etc. I can't! And pilling!?! I LOL'd when I just read that. NO pilling. Perhaps she needs to invest in some Chapstick or exfoliate her lips? I dunno what to say.

 

[NaomiH]

Yesssss!  Why not show us the way it looked later?  It looked really nice in all the pictures she showed us!!  

I think she's just butthurt that they don't stand on their own and that she wasn't sent samples so she had to shell out 90 bucks a pop so she could review them. :haha:

 

[Medgal07]

I think Kitty is saying "Do I even exist anymore or is it ALL about these lipsticks??!!"

Thanks @Ernie. Roco (I am SO sick of typing that one out!!) and Negligee do look very similar in color but not finish. Hmmmmm

Sounds like Roco might be warranted?????

 

[ashievic]

If I recall correctly this is often her moaning about Chanel too. How she had to pay for the product. Gee, if I were Chanel I would send her free samples so she could give less then kind reviews. I also wonder if her rating system is different rules for different companies??? Nothing to base this on, just being snarky.

Also was there something awhile ago how she is hooked up with eBay and the selling of LE's??? Again, I could be wrong. Our other makeup called, they miss us. I am still waiting for the CT matte I ordered on 8/31.

 

[Medgal07]

On a brighter note, Rococotte comes today!!

Awesome!!

 

[ashievic]

Ok I am going to be sap, just for a moment. The AP recently released photos of where I was at in Idaho. Please consider looking at these. It was the worse fire I have ever worked. I wanted to thank all of you for your thoughts, prayers, and genuine concern as I was chasing the fires this summer. You made me laugh, have moments of light heart silly thoughts while literally in an area of mass danger. When I was about to lose it. I would read the postings and laugh my butt off. As well as truly be touched by your kindness and concern. Hopefully the season is over. Again, truly thank you to all of you. Big makeup hugs!!!!!

I may drive you nuts MM, but you so know you love me.....and would miss me. The friendships I have built here, truly helped me so much these past few months. You all rock!!!!!

 

[Psych1]

I can't wait to hear what you think of RDD!

I'll definitely post swatches and my thoughts as soon as it arrives. It's supposed to be here Thursday, can't wait to try the sheer formula!

Ok, you got me to HAVE to go see & read :haha: She is SOOOOOOO wrong on the lipsticks in SO many ways! If that many products (& we've listed them) lipsticks, powders, blushes are so bad  & dry & powdery...the problem just may be her skin. I have not found that to be the case on my lips & skin. Its insane to me that these are given a B- & C! We've tried them & we know they're good & the other beauty reviewers feel the same way. Other than the pencils, I haven't seen another complaint like hers. Everyone I read said they were so creamy & elegant feeling on the lips with great color saturation. Even the sheer I got gave me great color. This one really gets me:  It's ridiculous that she wants them to stand up hboy: That's like saying you don't want the Mona Lisa to look at you with those eyes :haha: Its ART! Its CREATIVE & its OUTSIDE the box & its wonderful. Its Christian Louboutin for heavens sake. I have nothing against her either & appreciate the swatches...but she is just plain wrong on the CL & we all know it. The grading system is well....:meh:  

Great post. Totally agree with everything!

Polly Pissy Pants or Negative Nellie should be her blog name. Well written, thank you!!!! I find it upsetting for people like me or heck like anyone might not purchase a product based on her review. That is why I read her junk postings for amusement, and I try to guess the grade before I get to that part of her review. I remember she just trashed the crap out of a Chanel product. Then trashed the customer service of the website of Chanel. I think of her reviews as I do cooking. If I do not prep the pan correctly, the finish product will not be good. So if she isn't prepping her face properly be it moisturizer, primer, heck basic chapstick, of course she will have issues.  For those of us on a tight budget, her reviews can mislead us to miss out on something. So as so many of you have guided me, take her stuff as nothing but hot air. If you want the truth, ask our group.  I have found you all tell the truth, make suggestions how to use a proper brush, prep the skin or lips, etc. As for not being able to stand up, really that's your problem with the product???? Get a life.

Lol, you crack me up I don't think she's prepping her skin, lips etc properly either. With that said, I have dry lips & I slapped Ron Ron on my dry, cracked lips & it smoothed everything out like butter. Did not accentuate my dry patches, settle into lines, nothing. It actually made my lips feel better. I honestly stopped reading her reviews last year when she was super wrong on multiple Chanel Items & the TF lips & boys. Although, it was nice that she had swatches before anyone else, gave me an idea, but they ended up being SO inaccurate it's not even funny.
