Somehow I ended up with Marque l/s. I think this was the night that I ordered about $300 worth of products after a few too many. My shipment had this lippie in it and a buttload of eyeshadows I already own along with Danger Zone and Word of Mouth. Very odd. But, I do like this color and the packaging is very pretty IRL.

I can't wait to check out Marque and Identity in person tomorrow...put those lemmings to rest, one way or another.

freaking mylar, espresso, bamboo, vino lip pencil, pearl ccb, hush ccb and a few others I can't remember. I actually use all those so I might just keep them as backups. I don't know what the hell I was thinking.
I also got stuff I didn't have like a brown liner (whoopty doo), artifact p/p, stark naked, brick lip liner, the stuff I mentioned before in my last post, silverstroke and a few others I don't remember....
Woooo, when UPS showed up, Mr. Rbella was PISSED!!!!!!!!!!! He thought I might have just ordered a few things. I didn't know I ordered anything at all. Pathetic.

Wow. I've totally done the intoxicated shopping before, too. Whoops. It's shameful I've not even tried Pearl or Hush. Artifact, Stark Naked and Silverstroke, however, I can attest to all being beautiful. I have them and <3 them.

You are too funny. I think its hilarious that u placed an order of stuff u already had after one too many
If u do decide to sell some things I could be interested. I was gonna get a light colored CCB to put under my blush to see if itll make it last longer

I bought Masque and Identity today. I like both of them but seriously the : 'do not miss it' is Masque. For me it's a little bit like I wish Lollipop Loving would have been but more creamy (a lot) and more pigmented (not too much tho) and more on the pink-plum side then pink-peach. (I'm NC20)
I think I'll buy a spare one tomorrow... we'll see.
But I must add that Flourish was really beautiful too a rich red-bright fuchsia with tiny sparkles of the same shades, it's definatly red tho, not pink.

All of you ladies like Masque?? I bought All Mine and it is gorgeous on, I like it loads better than Masque. IMO
Rbella - I feel your pain. Years ago I was on Ambien to help me sleep at night, I am an insomniac. Never take Ambien and get on the 'puter, I spent a poopload of money and never remembered ordering most of it!!
Another forum that I belong to, there was a member that had the same problem with Ambien and MAC.com cut her off cause she spent boo koo bucks and they thought she was reselling it!!!!

Haha, fortunately I am never really drunk unless I am out in a drinking type environment and that is once in a blue moon.
I do depressed shopping which is much worse.
Down in the dumps? Lets go shopping for stuff I don't need. Wahoo!

It reminds me of Lollipop Loving because it's the same kind of sheer color with a nice shimmer to it. But for my lips, Marque make them more... how to say?, pigmented, while Lollipop loving (for me) makes them a little bit more pale. The difference is really subtle. I still love LL tho. (I have like 3 backups
) (and like 6 of MM but that's because I'm crazy with pastel pink..)
I just did swatches of both on my hand and I still believe they are comparable, only Marque is more on the pink side then LL. LL on the other hand has a bit more shimmer tho. But on my NC20 skin they are sisters to one an other. Oh and marque is more creamy and moisturizing. And last thing if you add Identity over M, it's more shimmery sparkly because like others said it looks a lot like a dazzleglass.
Personally I think that if you love LL you shouldn't miss those 2. But they are a bit expensive vs really comfortable to wear and nice so it's up to you, hope it helps you
