Geez....it just took me over an hour to get through all of the collection thread stuff I missed in the last few day! I am so behind!
After seeing Adina's swatches and the picture of her wearing So Scarlet l/s & cult of cherry l/g I know that I have to have both of those colors. I just hope it looks that great on me! I would love to get one of the mattenes but I just know that I would never reach for it.
Hope everyone is well today! I am in a much better mood than I was yesterday. I had some friend drama yesterday which totally threw me out of sorts.

aww Katie I sympathize with the friend drama. *sigh* there's an acquaintance/friend with whom I got to know well as we had similar interests in terms of career and whatnot. so yesterday as I was waiting for a ride to drop off exams after work, he comes up as he was waiting for his girlfriend and coworker to drive them home....so we got to talking about the class we are taking at the same time through distance, the one where i've finished the assignments. well he asked and i told i finished them all, got A's, whatever. so he asked me point blank--"how do you feel about me using your assignments as an outline for finishing 2 of mine?" i was SO taken aback...i said no.
but seriously....this guy freaking scares me. we are working on being accountants, and this just sets me off---you have to have a high level of ethics. so there was a previous incident that i thought i had misheard...but apparently not. like freaking heck i'm so bothered!! i just want to cut him out of my life.. frightening.
so i had a bad hair day today, not feeling great (just normal girl stuff) and work was stressful so I went MACing! OMG rebecca i so thought of you @ the counter. So I had run out of studio stick this morning so went for more foundation. and bought select liquid foundation. psyched! thennnnnnn there was STILL x-rocks and spaced out blushes.....spaced out is now a letdown, it turns me orangey. cripes. so i GOT X-ROCKS!
sad to say i never swatched it before, i thought it was too dark. but schwing I LOVE the colour! I cannot wait *claps* thanks for the subtle and not-so-subtle enabling! Lets see how it goes on my light NW15 skin!!
oh and took the plunge and got grand entrance!~ so pretty, and i thought it was like kitten but i like grand entrance better in terms of finish and not being so crumbly like stila's kitten!! <3!

Oh God, I can't keep up with MAC's collections anymore. I just saw the picture of the coral lips and it is beautiful! I was reading somewhere that these lippies will replace amplified cremes, is this true? I hope not because I really like the intensity of the amps for certain looks.

I am really liking X-Rocks Hannah but I have found that having such fair skin that I have to use it very lightly otherwise it looks muddy on me.

I bet that you would know if it showed up muddy. It seriously looks like a smudge of mud if I used it to heavy!
I love amp cremes! So creamy and pigmented!! I can't wait to try the cremesheen collection.
I might have totally missed something but why (on the site that shall not be named) does it say that some of the electroflash shadows will be re-released with the mineral collection. I thought that we already knew the 6 that would be coming back were the ones from Amuse and Antiquitease. Color me confused but I think I might have missed something!

My fav amp is Girl About Town. From my experience with the amps, they are a thicker texture than most lippies. The texture is almost like a cream color base. The texture helps to lay a bold amount of color down on the lips quickly. It is something that you will only see the lippie and not your natural lipcolor under it, in other words its not a sheer natural look. Its good for bold lip looks but I think way too dramatic for everyday lippie colors. The amps are meant to stand out, even with the colors in the amp collection. Girl About Town is a bright pink, and Vegas Volt is a coral/orange. Its all for fun!

oooh that does sound good! a quick real colour type thing would be nice than some of the multi swipes I need for lustres. thanks brokefrommac *cough* enabler!! (is it rachel? lol i don't know if i remember your name, so i'm not trying to offend by using your screenname!)
uh yeah Katie, I thought we already knew the first round. to me, I don't understand, maybe she posted the wrong pic?? lol it was weird, there are still 4 electroflash shadows at my counter---love connection, fresh green mix (this surprised me but yet i still passed) pink split and there was another one....i think we need a break before they bring out any electroflashes again

Hi , yes its Rachel lol. Don't worry because I am still trying to figure out peoples names on here. I hope you all don't think I'm rude, I am just horrible at names. Give me time, I will learn lol.
About being an enabler, I know, I'm sorry lol. All I can say is this past Monday I didnt care about cult of cherry at all, now I am going nuts trying to shrink my list down. I don't even wear red lippies and everyone on here has forced me to buy at least one coc lipglass. *sighs*... I need another hobby besides shopping. Oh god why can't MAC have a clearance sale.

I need to figure out how to wear my CCBs. I just got two (Pearl and Luna) and I wore Pearl as a base today, but I don't think I used enough UDPP because it creased.
Just going to have to take a little figuring out, I guess.

I seriously over use luna, pearl, and shell. I use them as highlighters and for my eyes almost daily. I usually put on UDPP first and then a small layer of luna for eye looks and it pretty much becomes crease proof. I am glad that MAC is giving CCBs some more love! They are amazing!
Nude is also another one that I like for eye looks. I can't wait to get the ones from Ungaro!

BTW, anyone here play Pinochle? My office plays everyday at lunch - we all sit and eat together. I'm starting to figure it out, but man, it's hard!

I've never played pinochle. I used to play bridge when I was 11, though, before my grandmother died.
