I am so happy now! I got all the items I wanted on pre-order @ my local Nordies. I am so stoked that I am going to be getting 2 Marine Life's!!!!!

I did completely forget about the tote. But I will get that at the freestanding store when it comes out, I just have to have it for the boat!

Just went back from the store, and here's my thoughts of some items I originally had my eyes on:
  • Hipness blush. It's really pretty and I love how it looks on the packaging. What I didn't really was: I swatched it on my hand, alongside NARS Gilda and it looked really different (Hipness is pinker). But when I tried it on, it looked kind of the same with Gilda

    . The brush the MUA gave me has some colors on it... maybe that's why? Any opinions?
    hmm.gif
  • Float on By. I love the color, but it smudges on my hand really easily

    . I reckon it wouldn't stay that long if I put it on as an eyeliner.
  • Thrills. I was hoping of the copper rose color as described in Temptalia, but on me it comes out as frosty orange.
  • Temperature Rising. It's really loud. In your face bright orange. Not my cup of tea.
  • Sand and Sun e/s. Couldn't get it to show on my hand :p.
  • Flurry of Fun l/g. I think the teal sparkles are gorgeous! Although I didn't buy it because I'm on a sparkly lipglass no buy

Temptalia posted an excellent comparison post for Marine Life possible dupes, you can find it here:

MAC Marine Life Dupes — Sorry, Keep Looking

In fact I think she's now reviewed the whole collection, here's the round up post:

Splashing is just a bright pink to be honest. I would say very similar to Cult Fave from Fafi.
I have skipped it. I have way too many bright pink lipglasses like that!

I got Nymphette from the perm line instead.

Yes, the stupid thing is - when I get up in the morning and want to chat - most of you in the US are sleeping and I have to talk to myself usually

Susanne, talking to yourself is under rated, I do it allll the time.
winks.gif
Just not online as much lol
smiles.gif


Mmm I look forward to seeing everyones purchases
smiles.gif
I'm watching in the backgrounds a lot of the time but since I've put myself on a severe budget I don't have many purchases (none since January) and don't want to let myself day dream too far. I settle for living vicariously through you'all but I still keep an eye on these threads
