I think you should buy the lipsticks. If for no other reason than because you dared to badmouth Gentle. Your punishment is that you are required to purchase one of each lippies from this collection.

I got all my pigments yesterday and I've already gone through a jar of each in my selling of 1/2 tsp samples, they are selling fast!! Thankfully I got quite a few jars. I was kinda disappointed in royal flush, I was hoping it would be more like Maroon but it's still a pretty color, my 2 favorite pigments are Tea Time & Circa Plum. Gilded Green is a nice green, it's like a mix of 3 of MAC's other greens. I mixed the green with royal flush and it's turned out real cool, I was surprised. I'm a sucker for mixing colors, I love making new custom ones

Haha I wanted Inner Hue since before it even knew it was gonna be born! But ummmmm cult of cherry?? Blecchhhhh, like gag me with a spoon! I'm not even gonna go there LoL! Maybe one day..but no time soon. ive just started to feel comfortable with my Style Minx lipglass (which is starting to look soooooooo hot) haha

BTW thanks for the compliment!

Fiiiiiiiiiine, I'll buy the damn lipsticks! LoL i was already going to

, but theres no Nordstroms around (I'm soooo not paying for shipping). I did bad mouth Gentle. But I wore Love Thang today and I am liking it. I put Warmed MSF over it....it was pretty hot, i think. But i can't use my 187 for blush..because I use it for foundation. PLUS, ummmmm i can never tell how much product is on my 187. Let me stop, and post this in Sonic Chic lol

^^^Alrighty, I'll leave you alone now. You are forgiven! Seriously though, if you don't think you like it, return it. It is too much money to pay for an item you might not use. If you can get to a MAC store near you, they will let you exchange it even if you bought it online.

Edit-Crap, I'm in the wrong thread again. Sorry.

 

[darkishstar]

Naked to the Core is giving me a phone call, though I rejected them the first time. Never gets the hint huh?!

Resistance... must resist...

Sure, I can try

whenever I take pictures of swatch's they never come out as good as others here. I'll charge my camera and see what I come up with. I had both colors on my hand and don't know what made me think of mixing them but I did and it was nice, lol. Now I can see why those 2 are in the same collection. If those 2 look great mixed together I can't imagaine how good the royal flush mixed with the others would be. Seeing it alone is so-so but blended with the others...I'll try and do swathes of it alone and mixed with each of the others also.

Oh, someones asked, yes..I'm still selling samples, just took down listing cause got busy with store & direct sales. feel free to email me

)

 

[lethaldesign]

My package is out for delivery! *waits impatiently*

 

[infernalmachine]

saw these in person today and honestly (maybe because i am picky) nothing was a must have for me... the highlighters were cool, but i didn't pick any up because i'm still completely fuzzled as to how / where i would use them.

i'm saving up for starflash / overrich.

yes, it does apply perfect & evenly every time. It must be the core that is making these exceptionally soft & creamy

Sorry - cantaffordmac

You don't know how dead broke I am.

Ever since I got sick, I have been paying HUNDREDS of $$$ for my visit and meds b/c I don't have medical insurance. I am bummed b/c my ear infection still hasn't cleared up and I am almost positive I lost part of my hearing. I only work weekends and it just such a let down. ugh

I have to skip a few collections but its not that bad since I really wasn't looking forward to any of them except Manish's. And that is in Oct. So I have time.

I think I'll pay a visit to Nordies on Fri and see if I really like them. Like REALLY LIKE THEM. lol

hahaha awww you need some sleep, period!

I think all these collections are just stressing you out babe

I COMPLETELY understand where u are. I honestly cant believe I dont have enough money to get what I want frm MAC....I havent been splurging! Just broke. I want 3 more blushes, more lipsticks....more everything. Ugh it just SUCKS! But I do think I need these lipsticks lol. All these collections ARE stressing me out! Along with everything else, lol. Oh well

Thanks for asking. I am actually a lot better. But I feel that my hearing is still impaired, it feels blocked but not as much as it was before. I hope it heals in time and I get my hearing back. I am just scared that I have to pay more medical bills b/c I have more follow up apts with my doc.

Sometimes I look at my collection, and I just want to sell it all. lol B/c I am so fed up with everything. I haven't splurged on anything, just on bills.

You and I always want the same things. lol I also want a few more of those sonic chic blushes and I want these lippies. And only a couple of things from the upcoming collection that would probably cost me under $50 any way which is a big deal since I always spend over 100 for each collection anyway. lol

What finish would you say these lippies are closest too? (Amplified? Frost?) I had absolutely no intention on ordering any of these but ended up getting Naked to the Core and Pop Circle b/c I could get free shipping w/ a $200 order and I was a little below that, lol. And NOW, I wish I had bought Inner Hue after hearing all the good reviews! Dang, no way I'm spending $8 more on shipping just for that one! Grr, nordies! I wish MAC's website had them so I didn't have to pay shipping.

 

[Julie5]

I know I had no intention buying both the palettes(warm and cool) and I did. I have used the warm palette once so far and it seems like some of these colors could be doped by other Mac colors. Now I feel did I just waste money. There are just way toooo many collections I want and have bought. My wallet is on fire and will never go out cause I keep spending.

They are Lustres.


I must be the only one who was disappointed in the lipsticks. I bought Pop Circle and I'm afraid it's going to have to go back. Even for a lustre, it isn't very pigmented.
