I'm gonna go to the Mac store and look at the casual color and Toxic Tale. I need to see them in person. I've been on the hunt for a good coral lippie for one thing.

I just got an email from MAC that Lady Bug lipstick is backordered and is expected to ship within 2 weeks... however it is still showing as "in stock" on the website.

Way to go, Mac. You don't suck at this game at all.

Liba oh how I missed you! :bouquet: Might get the BP. Was going to get Toxic Tale, but I already have Ablaze and Toying Around. Or might just skip the bp. Have the Marylin one to tide me over.

I would just buy some of the permanent shadows instead of this... Like coppering, cranberry and Amber lights

well so much for being able to get strike it while its haute. I didn't expect that to be a popular one at all so was lazy about getting it quickly.

Strike While Haute is sold out on the U.S. site. I'm glad I ordered it this morning.

AWESOME!!!

I hope you've been doing well! Sounds like you are definitely staying fabulous! I'm glad you love everything and thanks for that great, very accurate swatch of 5 Alarm - I was surprised there have been so few swatches and photos of it online.

Marilyn BP tends to go a little heavy on me - more of a retro style finish, but I can wear it full face. This one is a much lighter texture. But this one is also a lighter color, so it's too stark for the whole face for me. It's the bomb for putting it where I'd put a highlighter plus some extra areas, like the forehead and more of the cheeks, but it looked a little stark down the nose and not for the lower face under the cheekbones. Somehow, old Elude manages to be full face unlike this one, probably because it has more reflective luminosity, while this one is mucho matte. I haven't backed it up, because I figure I will use less of it per application than some of my others, but let's see how long that lasts, lol. All in all, this was a real surprise collection and not just for fair skinned gals, although talking to some of the other darker skinned gals, this BP is a no go.

I agree. As the finish of HS is so matte, it looks rather flat on the face, thus emphasizing imperfections, fine lines and/or dry patches, but a ton of moisturizer followed by a ton of primer will help. Those with oily skins might like it too.

It looks orange to me. But this makes me feel better since I got the wrong one and now it's sold out. Thank you, Erine!

It's red-y coral. Definitely not a true red matte. Like i said, MAC just can't do it, at least not in pressed form.
