Jingle Jangle is VERY pretty & looking at the swatches of it side by side with speed dial - i think it will be a lovely combo.

I would let you know how well the combo works but i won't know until xmas

If that's the case....I would say no it's not a must have IMO. Initially I was considering both MM & It's A Miracle but when I swatched IAM while I think the colour is gorgeous I didn't feel the shade was special enough. Mind you I don't own any plummy shades from MAC but even then I felt I've seen colours very similar to it. But you're right, it was buttery smooth & pigmented which is always hard to resist! I'm only going to get MM and skip the other. To me, It's A Miracle is a "nice to have" shade if I have spare change but not something I'll rush out to get right now. If I see it at CCO in a few months down the road I may pick it up. If you are having doubts maybe take some time to think....maybe a week or two later the lemmings may die down.

^^^ i love speed dial too. i lost that one and i miss it very dearly so i know i really loved that one. i gotta get it soon. does anyone know if speed dial with jingle jangle on top looks similar to speed dial with stepping out on top? its seriously one of my fav lipsticks. creamsheens are awesome as it really works well on pigmented lips. i might have to cave in and get jingle jangle which i really dont want to spend the money on though. lol ive been eyeing cream cup for a while too. trying to stay strong~ wanted the silver glosss tooo

GBA is definitely darker, because of the black in it. Mayhem looks amazing with GBA on the outer corner.

i am so glad i got suprise me lipstick. i really have enough lipstick, but i just sorta ended up with this one. when i finally got around to using it, upon opening i was shocked that i'd bought such a bright pink....only to be pleasantly surprised how nicely the intensity of pink can be built up. i love this lustre, and i guess surprise me really did surprise me

I'm sorry, I haven't been keeping up with thread but I didn't get any palettes, they weren't cutting it for me. But someone swatch the cool palette over a black base and that made me want it hard, but not going to do it. I will be getting the Fuschia pigment set, though.

Nars Albratross, not a peachy highlight but the best universal highlight there is.

It goes with everything. So natural and with the shimmer being so minimal you can use MSF with it. I have used So Ceylon and it still turned out great but I see your hesitation b/c the cost.

NOOOOO!!! I'm not hearing this, closing my ears. I am on self-imposed no buy, been shopping my stash but Enable Me, I like it.

I hope it is still around when I want to fork over for it.

and I bought myself:
• Jingle Jangle dazzle glass -

Good haul. I love speed dial, an underrated bright pink.

Creme Cup is the cremesheen form of frost Angel. I like the Cream Cup better b/c of the texture.

I need to stop coming on Specktra while at work, because reading this makes me want to go to MAC on my lunch break and get Jingle Jangle, and I don't even like Dazzleglasses, but I LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE Speed Dial, and always wondered a good gloss to go over it.
Darn you girlies ya'll are making me poor

We have a similar "dilemma:"
I already have She-Zam and love it so much that I had more or less decided to get a backup.
BUT, I've read that Jingle Jangle is really gorgeous, so I'm wondering if I should skip the backup of She-Zam, and go for Jingle Jangle instead.
I really don't want to get both of them. What think you all?
