SOOOOLD!
I guess Ban This! can be my "consolation prize" for missing "Boys Go Crazy."
Hearing that Ban This! looks great with Go For It sealed the deal for me; I'm really loving that lipstick.

I got Ban This! yesterday but haven't worn it yet.

It looks awesome in the tube.

I'll try it before the week is out.

I also want to get Gimme That but if I don't no great shakes!

OOh, Ban This and Just Go For It - I can't wait to try it!

Thanks!

I tried Ban This! and GFI last night and boy is it love or what!!!

As is true with any lip stain, it can be tricky to get the color spread evenly, and it *is* drying when worn on its own. A bit of gloss or balm on top helps with the dryness, though. And I like to apply the color to my lips, then immediately spread/sheer it out with a water-dampened cosmetic sponge. I love to wear this stain under red lipstick; it helps prevent that ring-around-the-mouth effect as the lipstick wears off. Back to Dare To Wear: What does everyone think of "Ban This!"? I've heard that it's like Violetta lipstick in gloss form, and that makes my mouth water.

they're not even close. zingy is definately blue blue, where JB has green in it.

I finally swatched Going Bananas, Sassy Grass, Zingy and Crazy Cool! I swatched GB with CTW and they are almost similar. I also swatched Zingy along with EE and Clarity and all three of them are almost close as well.

yes i think that is what i shall do. the pin up look eyes is generally pretty quick and easy to do - i'll be getting ready without having much time! the red lip will perhaps look like i have made an effort!

I just got a call from the Mac counter and they said we won't be getting this collection. This sucks big time, I don't know who makes the decisions there, but this was a bad one!!!

I wanna go lay down to the floor and kick and scream.

Do you have a pro store? We only got it in the pro store, so maybe you're also getting it in one location.

*sniff* The utter kindness and willingness to help out others on this board is one of the most awesome things on the internet.

Anywho...I'm still contemplating Ban This even though I keep telling myself that I don't really need it. It's just so darn cool....also looking at Going Bananas and Sassy Grass, but it's hard for me to justify spending the $$$ on colors I will likely rarely wear.

oh you need to get sassy grass. i didn't think i would want it either since i'm not a green e/s person. but this is one that mac RARELY ever makes so its definitely a good one to get. i don't regret it, plus it looks nice with juxt or gorgeous gold.
