Thank you Erine. I'm sure they'll be delivered on Thursday.
I think so too :nods:
Well, I used to have and do a lot of really bright pinks and really bright corals.  I also had some pale peach colors that were just too milky for me.  I have a lot of lipglasses that I use to help bring a color just to that sweet spot.  Some of my all-time favorites are:  Pink Lemonade, Flash of Flash, Florabundance, Cultured, Prrr, Love Nectar, Oyster Girl, Social Light, Deliciously Demure,  Liquid Passion, Underdressed Lipglass, etc.  I do have Nymphette.  I love it!  It is also one of my favorites.  I usually stick to light or mid-tone colors.  I feel I look best and feel most comfortable in soft to mid-tone colors.  I used to really love peach lipsticks, but I really have to be careful with the tone (Sushi Kiss for example, or it really ends up biting me in the butt, it ends up, IMHO, looking weird.  It just looks kind of off.  That is why I tend to like my lippies to be leaning more pink than peach or a nice nude with a kick of color so I don't end up looking washed out.  I will throw in a picture of myself so you can see what I am referring to. I do love a bold lip on everyone else, but I guess I feel a little more self-conscious.  My teeth are not as pearly white as when I was younger, so a bright, bold lip can bring more attention to the fact that they aren't as pearly white as they used to be.  I am thinking about picking up either a lipstick and/or a lipglass from the Magnetic Nude Collection, but I simply cannot decide. Help! Thanks again, Tammy :)
If you prefer softer punks to peaches, I'd say definitely check out MR. I was gonna suggest CC, but then you said the pink thing thing, and CC is more peachy. My teeth aren't the whitest either (smoked for 10yrs when i was younger), but when i tried on Melt's 6Six6, holy crap did it make my teeth look so white! I was amazed! So don't discount those bold shades, especially vampy shades, which you'd think they'd make not-so-white teeth less white.

I went to MAC to try a cremesheen finish lipstick for the first time. I really liked it so much, I placed an order for Morning Rose on Nordies site. Then I purchased More To Love PLWLP and Spice lipliner to go with Pleasure Bomb and Bad Gal Riri. With this collection, I bit off more than what I could chew lol

Honestly I won't even be mad if my stuff doesn't come in tonight. Yeah it would've been nice to have before Christmas but I wasn't even expecting to get them shipped that fast! As long as they're on their way I'm happy.

These will be my first EDSF. I was just wondering because I see everyone just loves Superb.

Oh yeah, it is definitely pretty.. I always get scared I will lose mine.. or my sister will *borrow* my makeup item and I won't see again for months (if ever again)..

Yeah, I agree with you.. since you only use a small amount - it is hard to imagine ever using up even one of the ED MSFs, even if you're a MUA.... That would take some serious dedication..

So 20 minutes later I hear a knock at my door lol superb was not what I was expecting. Not in a bad way it's just a lot golder than I thought it would be. I'm contemplating getting FP but really how much highlights do I need? Lol

Got my Nordstrom package of Silver Dawn EDES today! This is the first time that I had a package from Nordstrom ship so fast and getting it the next day. Ususally I wait 3 business days to get it and cannot wait to get my other items from this collection!

Is Close Contact anything like Myth/ Crème d' Nude?
I am not sure - it is described as a peachy color, so I kept thinking it might look similar to Playing Koi (which is one of my favorite Mac lipsticks)--which is why I bought a backup already.. however, in swatches - it doesn't quite look like PK, so I don't know..

I have Myth, Creme D'Nude and Playing Koi (and Fleshpot) -- and as soon as I get Close Contact.. I will post a comparison.. My order from Nordies was supposed to come today but got held up, so I can't swatch it now..

I'm not really sure it's Nordstrom's fault, UPS seems to be severely backlogged and hasn't delivered packages for a lot of companies. I ordered from Sephora 3 day shipping and now it won't be here until Monday....even though it says it's in the hub right across the bridge from me. :-/ Yet I did get my Nordstrom Hautecore lipstick that I ordered days after my Sephora order. So who knows.

I agree. Plus, you also have to add the weather factor.
