I wore So Bad today and LOVE it

. It's a perfect coral for me and what I wanted Crosswires to be on me. I wore Antique Green on my lid with Firecracker in the crease and darker green mineral e/s in corner. So Bad and Firecracker complimented each other. I do notice though that I have to be light in the application of the gloss otherwise it gets kinda clumpy where my lips close...if you know what I mean?

I ended up ordering Shock-a-holic and received it today. I've updated my post in the swatch thread to include the comparison b/t it and MUFE #92 if anyone is interested

I think I've gotten everything from this collection that I wanted. I've hauled a lot of stuff this month (well last month too, hehe) from this one and In the Groove, so I have tons of great stuff to keep me occupied hahaha. Hopefully I'll get to creating more looks with this stuff soon.

Ok,

I LIED. Or, Oops, I did it again!!!

I went back to one of my local Nordies and ended up hauling:

Sassy Grass
Louder, Please
Free to Be (pan).

I had to go to the Nordies on the other side of town to get Sassy Grass because both my local MAC store and Nordies were sold out.

Sassy Grass is hawt!!! I don't have any greens in my collection like it.

I think my next haul will be Atlantic Blue or Electric Eel or Zingy.

Electric Eel and Zingy are sooo close but one has more purple in it than the other.

I am truly MAC'd out now.

I really must stay away from MAC stores and Nordies counters!!! until December that is!

The Feline collection looks great though!

I think I will give it a pass but we'll see!

I really appreciate you for helping me!

Another question?

That was my mac store, what about a Macy's counter? Or Dillard's counter?
Are they held to the same rule?


PMing you next my dear! thanks!

aside from only getting a lippie at counters, the same rules apply. if is perm or LE and its in the regular black packaging, it counts.

Picked up the following yesterday at Nordstrom:

Atlantic Blue (pan)
Shock-a-Holic
Dare to Dare l/g

Got the chance to do a quick lip swatch of Dare to Dare this morning and I absolutely LOVE it!

Yeah, it is a really good purple

. When I swatched the two, 92 was creamier and much more vibrant/neon but I am not worried with SaH at all--I actually think it would get more regular use than 92 for that reason.

I've tried Fix +, with a stiff brush, with a fluffy brush.... the list goes on. How did you get it to work? Maybe I'm just not doing it right. I am brand new to using Fix + so....

they don't feel gritty at all to me. very thick though, but that is fine with me. even my hubby commented on how nice bold and brash looked on my lips! i told him i needed all the glosses and he just laughed though!

maybe i'm going mad, but my Shock-a-Holic seems to have red sparkles in the pan, but when it's on skin it's totally matte. is this normal? does anyone else's do this?

Mine is like that and I think someone who got it as a tester a few months ago said that, too.

Could this mean we are not getting this here?!?

I don't know where have all the former MAs disappeared from the counter, there is only two new girls (the other have been there few months and the other couple of weeks), and it is seriously understaffed, they cannot handle the rush hours by the two of them (it has been crazy when the counter is busy). I miss my sweet and nice MAs I used to admire new collections with!

I hope you get it and they are just not updated yet, but not every country in Europe got the collection

Yeah it's normal. Trax was kinda weird to me too where it would had the goldish sparkles but when I put it on my eye it like totally changed and looked like a matte splotchy mess. I never could get that to work for me
