I was about to purchase a few on ebay but finding it hard to decide on a few, has anyone seen on hold IRL? It looks so pretty pink but then it says its raspberry and the swatches show a light raspberry, is it best described as pinky or reddy?
Also, do you think fan fare is a bit....boring? I don't have a 'safe' pink, maybe i need one

Have known since the start i want ravishing but now i think i want speak louder...but theres none on ebay raa!

^^ They'll be out at counters Sept 25, so why not wait to see what they all look like IRL? I really don't get buying cosmetics off ebay unless it's a past LE item that can't be gotten any other way (i.e. swapping or Gone But Not Forgotten). The last lipstick I bought off ebay looked like it was used and I threw it out. For *me*, having an item a few weeks early just isn't worth worrying about whether or not it's authentic or used, possibly not having a label on it, or saving a couple of dollars (by the time you factor in shipping). JMO.

Thats awful!
I should have learned my 'sight unseen' lesson with a few disappointing purchases but i'm in australia so these wont be out for agggesss, and when they are out i'm rarely near a counter, so was always planning to buy online unseen!

I think i'll manage some self-control until the 23rd/25th because the ones on ebay are unlabelled and alot of them are guesses as to what shade they are. I'm just impaitent, really want to play with them, especially ravishing!

Well, the one I bought was under Retail and so if it's fake, its fake. I got a real Dazzleglass off eBay a month or two before they were released and (I know I'll be shot for this LOL) I HATED it. So I knew that I didn't want to waste my money on them. I bought Dare You off eBay just cause, again, it was cheaper. And Honestly, I know how to read feedback, see if the people leaving the feedback know real MAC or not, and decide that way. Its not about having it first. For me, it was trying it for cheaper!

Okay, got my Cremesheen. The texture is to DIE for. So creamy. I don't know about staying power because I just put it on, but I'll update. I got Dare You and this is the color I WANTED So Scarlett to be

I'm really loving lipsticks these days. Playing around with different combinations of l/s, liner and gloss. I think this will fit in nicely with my new habit...

Any way you can salvage it with another product to change the colour a bit?

Maybe with something to make it less obviously orange. >.< It makes my teeth look way yellow and I don't like that.

i'm such a huge fan of the amplified creams because of the colour payoff, but lemme tell you...these are the colour payoff plus fabulous staying power. amplifieds kind of wear off easily, but not these.

Ok this is the collection I'm waiting on the most. I have absolutely fallen in love with lipsticks this year. I used to be strictly a gloss girl, but I have realized that if you apply a lipstick UNDER a lipglass, the color just POPS and it's absolutely gorgeous. So yeah....I'm gonna pick up quite a few of these.
