whoa, that purple is
it looks a little bit like Heroine. This could be a very popular lippy to say the least. Team Insomnia get ready to stalk.

That red ain't half bad!!!
I hope this is from Strength and not an EL collection (I like the formula on my one EL lipstick - Gunmetal - but man, that fragrance it has is annoying).

So i finally got my butt to the mac store.
Firm Formx2: its like a dark brown with golden shift and glitter. pigmented. i think my swatch is 1 sheer and 1 opache pass. if you know what i mean. sometimes you dont hold the lippi right.
strong Womanx1: quite similar to heroin. maybe less pink in it.
the red one: looks dark in the tube but its like a bright red with pink in it. too much pink imo . too common in my opinion too. skip
pink pigeon and party parrrot are gorgeous but we already know that. skip. i got them already.
lipticks are $15
both quads have neutral shades. they look lovely and swatched ok. i didnt pay much attention to them cause im low on money. but i may just get the after all. the colors look sooo pretty. if you are all about lips and only wear neutral shadows, you are going to love these. one has a soft gray color
sorry i didnt ask the price but $40 i guess
taupe shape: soft brown with some shimmer but minimal. x1 for my aunt the blushes are $20
poised: soft brownish pink.x1 for my aunt
apres chic
they didnt have the Mineralized stuff yet but they told me to go on saturday. i passed by my nordstrom counter and my girl wasnt there
. so i couldnt see them at all.
they had the polishes, pencils, and balm, no lipsticks too. weird.
so the balms have vanilla scent/flavor. the plum one looks kind of pink unfortunately. not plum. but they are all pretty . i left 2 for me on hold and one for my aunt the baby pink one. i dont like the price of these $19.50!
sorry i was testing a lipliner close to party parrot.

Lol, what? It's a shame the lipsticks aren't like in the other pic posted, but I still like what I see in your swatches. My list hasn't changed. All the lipsticks + BUs.

yes the quads are lovely. im gonna try to swatch them saturday. and yeah i dont think im getting all the balms or BUs of couse. they are way more expensive than tendertones, and im low right now soo i better use my tendertones more.Thank you, kimibos!!
I think I need both blushes. The quads sound great too, maybe I'll want one when I see swatches.
Good to know the lip balms have a vanilla scent! But 19,50?I guess they're around 20 Euro here then.

what do mean gold around it??? its a fusion of black with gold. so you see a golden shift and it looks dark brown because gold is yellow. it not like the illamasqua gloss mix and its not metallic like the occ new liptars. its a smooth matte. better than grey friday. i hope that helpsSo it doesn't have gold around it
