Currant would work well too- it's similar to Nightmoth, but leans a little more red where NM is a bit more purple.

Same! I'm so tempted to get Moxie but I don't know if I could pull it off. Might just go for it since I missed out on Love Goddess.I still can't decide whether or not to get these lipsticks or not.
I can't really afford it after the Marilyn collection and I'm not 100% sure. The problem is by the time I make my mind up they'll be sold out. Argh.
Lip swatches on NC15 skin anyone so I can maybe see about only getting 1?

I'm coming from a different perspective since I'm roughly NW5 and very, very cool toned (I also have really pigmented lips, FWIW), but I think both Moxie and CYY are lipsticks that you have to try for yourself to see how they'll look. I thought Moxie would be the hit for me, and I was kind of afraid of CYY, but in the end, CYY looks better on me than Moxie does and is actually very wearable in daily life. Go figure!Thanks!
I do like the look of Moxie but how many bright pinks does a girl need? I usually wear pretty neutral lips so I'm trying to justify it because I know it's an old l/s and LE. I have DA also but I haven't tried it yet but if it's similar I could probably skip that one too... and CYY I kind of want because it's a cult lipstick really, but again... so neon I think I'd probably be uncomfortable in it. Blah.
SI was the only one from Marilyn I skipped because it seems to have so much orange. Sigh.
I haven't tried my Rocker yet, but I would definitely recommend getting the other 2 if you can. Can always sell them off if you don't like them.

Seems so. I can't believe everythign is in stock still. Maybe people here don't care that much about this collection?

I say if you can still get your hands on Moxie and CYY, get them!! I love them
. And if you don't like them, someone will take them off your hands easily!!!!

Ah thanks ladies. I appreciate the input and help!
IF they're still there next week, I'll get them. I can't afford them until then so it'll just have to wait for now. I don't even have enough money in my bank for them at the moment.

I actually didn't care for Moxie or Rocker ~ducks~ b/c they are repromotes, I felt the colors have been improved on with some of the other reds and bright pinks out there.

Candy Yum-Yum is a repromote too!

Thanks. I am tempted to just skip the collection. It's not a "Omg NEED" thing going on in my head, more just a want, which is likely due to the LE side of it and the fact they're repromotes that I missed out on a long time ago. Ah well. I figure if I'm meant to have them then I will, but with my finances atm I can't quite justify £42 on 3 lipsticks.

Still, it took a week!
I wore Bait the other day and now I think maybe I should've skipped it. I'm sure I have at least 2-3 other glosses that are very similar. Oh well.

Hi everyone!
I have been lurking on Specktra for years now religiously reading threads but have finally decided to join because I need somewhere to moan about Mac right now!!
I made my By Request order on Monday literally minutes after it came online, ordered Candy Yum Yum and Moxie (though not convinced I will actually like Moxie on me! :-/)
Anywayyyy... I STILL don't have my order and it STILL says In Warehouse! Mac just keep saying it's been dispatched and will be here soon but I'm so worried about it not turning up and then Candy Yum Yum being sold out! I actually used to own CYY from the original release but sold it because I had paid WAY over retail and felt too guilty about it to actually wear it! lol
Maybe fate is telling me I'm not supposed to own that lippie... haha
Anyway hello everyone! And I'm sure I'll be having lots more fun on here with all you fellow Mac addicts!!

That is frustrating... but don't worry too much, I ordered at about the same time and it just arrived and it still says In Warehouse on the site.I think someone else mentioned that they're having problems updating orders or something. Hopefully it'll be with you soon
