Any lip liner recs for Moxie? I tried NYX's Plush Red based on Cartoon Chic's swatches & it made Moxie look bright red with no hints of pink.

Wow, that's terrible. I'm sorry that happened to you. After I came back from being deployed (june 2011) I was looking for work. It wasn't until last mth that I got a job, and its a temp to hire position, so I def feel your pain. Hopefully you will find something soon :)

I find these stories a bit off putting when it comes to MAC. It is obvious they know that people love the brand. The way certain things are being handeled are far from what I consider to be normal. I mean come on.... MAC does not seem to value its (loyal) customers....AT ALL.

Yes! I do hope that MAC does resolve probelm orders soon and they are making me wait 7 full business days to get my order. I am waiting to see if it comes on Monday with my order of the Blush Palette.

Thanks duckrodeo! I totally understand. I'm also not totally in love with CYY, but it's more my style than Rocker. My favorite is def Moxie from the color to the wear, everything about it is awesome to me. lol
Thank you! Yes, that P+P is ridiculous good. lol

I love your eye looks! MB looks awesome with the Maybelline color tattoo. Guacamole is definitely coming home with me, now! Moxie is my favorite! I didn't think it would be. I thought I would love CYY, Rocker and then Moxie, but dang I could wear Moxie every single day and be just fine! I didn't even need to touch up the color throughout the day. My lips didn't feel dry as they do with most mattes. It's really a low-maintenance matte, I love it! CYY just takes some getting used to. My go-to bright pink is Pink Pigeon and CYY is definitely brighter bolder and more neon!

Just my 2 cents worth on the UPS situation: I live in a condo community. Our buildings are secure and you need a key to get in. Deliveries that didn't require signatures were either left in the hallway at our unit door or in the lobby by our mailbox. We never used to have a problem. Then the economy tanked, people lost their units or had to rent them out. With so many people coming and going we no longer had control over who had keys/access. The theft of deliveries got so bad that UPS will no longer leave ANY package without a signature. Only problem is some drivers don't bother to use the call boxes to get someone to let them in the building. They just leave the dreaded slips and drive off. This used to make me crazy as their distribution center is in a nearby town and takes me 3 buses to get to it ( I don't have easy access to a car).

A few of us finally rented boxes at a local mailbox business that is about 2 blocks from home. It costs me about $35/6 months but it is worth every penny. They sign for it there and then require a signature when you pick it up. It sucks that we have to do that but it sucks more to track down lost or stolen boxes.

Given the increase in parcel thefts nationwide regardless of method of delivery, I wouldn't be surprised to see merchants start to require addressee signatures for delivery in the future.

I was actually surprised to see that so many people didn't require signatures. This seems to be very inconsistent throughout the nation. Parcel theft is really, really annoying. :(

I live in a condo and have a concierge too. Fedex usually doesn't require a signature, so I requested the driver to leave my packages with the concierge. Just because a package does not require a signature, it doesn't mean the concierge won't accept it for you. I'm surprised that you're paying a maintenance fee for the condo and you have to go out of your way to rent a local mailbox business.

Somebody earlier in the thread mentioned the online chat people suggesting Beet liner with Lustering {??} over it to dupe Moxie therefore I think Beet would be a good liner.
