This purple billet is everything This is ER with room lighting. Color would show more if it were outside lighting. Pic taken with my Sony a5100 hence the crispness of the picture lol

I planned on checking everything out instore. If I love it,I'll get it. I've been so underwhelmed with MAC recently and then I have so many highlighters. When blended out,most look the same to me. IDK maybe I'm in a makeup rut.

You're actually being smart. I have so much crap just because.

I love seeing everyone's pictures! Mine come tomorrow and I may also get a new car tomorrow lol I'm excited.

Oh yay congrats on both!

These look like 3 totally different lippies! ER just can't make up its mind lol. Still not sure about it

Some really quick swatches, sorry that they are sloppy. Im NC25 for reference and these were taken in daylight. First row from top to bottom: Fashion Revival, Rebel, and Evening Rendezvous Second row from top to bottom: Goddess of the Sea, Acai, and Melt Cosmetics Dark Room

The UPS man came early today! Oh, Darling & Evening Rendezvous Swatches (Flash, No Flash)

My Nordstrom order is still processing? :huh: I ordered it at 4:15 AM EST, and then price-matched around 2:30 PM EST. ((Which, sidenote, was such a pleasant experience -- the Beauty Specialist and I were discussing the crazy launches and how we were both up stalking all the sites lol. I was like "Fellow beauty junkie, hollllla!" :lol: )) She said my order was fine, but nothing's changed since then... It still says it's "In Process" and I haven't gotten an email about delays or cancellations. If that happens I'm screwed because I work all day Thursday. Nervous :S

I ordered around 5am and my order is still In Process too

So fun!! I'm in my jammies & we're wearing 3d glasses about to watch Jurassic World in 3d ompom: I've missed you my Naomi :frenz:  

Oh fun! I loved that movie we. I saw it I the theater! I've missed you too Elegant. Now that things have settled down here,you'll probably be seeing me more often. :hug:

 

[NaomiH]

My MAC order should be here Thursday and my Bloomies order shipped! :yaay:

ok so I'm much better off getting the 137 I asked the same question before. I'm really just looking for a good brush that doesn't pick up to much product. Especially highlighters

My fav for highlighters is my Eco Tools fluffy fan brush. I bought the Real Techniques Setting Brush to try as well. Ppl rave about it.

I almost always use the RT setting brush for highlighting. :bigheart:

It looks so close to Strong Woman. I'm so glad! I skipped that one (I really don't know why I did that. :shock and ER looks like a great dupe!

 

[Sweetyellow]

I think ER is going to pull lavender on WOC whereas it'll come off as a deep berry on anyone under NC30 but this is only judging on the swatches I've seen in this thread.

I'm not sure if this vid has been shared yet but here ya go! MacAh0Lick: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HjEjS6LLovY ETA: and she makes me wanna get OD again. I need to stay strong!

 

[montREALady]

I almost always use the RT setting brush for highlighting. :bigheart:

And I always use my Ecotools Fan. I was having issues with my Colourpop highlighters and a lot of the girls told me they use the RT one so I had to get it. I usually use my fingers for those.

 

[leonah]

Soft Savour is what came in mine. It's weird that they changed that online...

thank you! is it a lustre then?

 

[cocotears]

I hate when Nordstroms and Belk do that to me. Bummer. That sucks.

Actually looking at it more I love it because it's giving me a golden olive vibe. Not straight up gold. I'll see tomorrow in the day when I slather it all over my face

Thanks for this! It just reaffirms that missing out on OD wasn't that big of a deal.

Me either. Usually Nordstrom is good with sending out stuff. I guess MAC told them they weren't sending anymore OD to them. :/

 

[msvluvsmac]

Yeah, I was upset last night, but I'm pretty much over it now. I just checked out some of the dupes on Temptalia and a lot of them are really similar. I'll just buy one of them.


Exactly!

You would think MAC would figure out that they'd make more money if they made large quantities of popular items so people can buy what they want from them instead of paying crazy Ebay prices (which I refuse to do). Oh well, their loss; on to better products from better/reliable companies.

 

[keridabeenfabb]

The RT setting brush is really nice for highlighting. Or one of those big fluffy fan brushes on eBay.

I'm going to look online today especially since they have some sort of sale this week

Omg ER IS GORG! I say swatch nothing in the dark!! Well we know this but I was anxious last night Here it is with NYX Prune lip pencil which works PERFECTLY with it

Edit: Highlighter is Oh, Darling. Blush is A Little Lusty from the MACnificent Me Collection. ER is unique but I still brought other lipsticks with me to swatch with it. I also took a pic of my highlighters near the window with OD. I'll put that up later. Rushing to work!

 

[lyseD]

I am so pissed that I skipped OD. I'm going to have to go in on Thursday. If I can, I'll grab an extra for someone here who missed out

That is so sweet of you. Good luck tomorrow.
