I think thats a really good decision. You'll love the Glossimers better for a long time.

Just don't look at ML when you go shopping

That way if you decide you don't want it you can sell or swap it...for some Chanel

Annnnnnd back on the fence I go..... You all have very valid points.

I am hoping they will have sold them all before I get there. Maybe I will call my MA ahead of time and just tell her to lie to me if I ask if they have any more.

I already have the rest of my stuff pulled and in a hold bag under the counter so I don't have to rush there first thing to get the things I really want.

even funnier that we all know what you do have already!

I am sure this has been asked before but how does hipness compare with joyous BPB? I'm on the fence about this, but I am a sucker for pinky corals.

Hopefully, Politely Pink will look different, because I already have that! Politely Pink looks quite frosty on my lips, although I do like it as an everyday kind of color. I ordered Lazy Day without swatching or trying it on...hopefully I will like it. I just wanted a nice everyday kind of pink. I ordered Splashing too for something brighter! I wouldn't get pulled into the ML hype. If you already think Hipness is really bright, ML will be really bright! And then once, you blend it down, it will probably look really similar to Hipness or other coral blushes. But then again, I'm not a big bright blush fan, so maybe my opinion isn't best. I just know you have pale skin like I do and I think it would be somewhat overwhelming.

Oh I know.

I think it's great though

Knowing each others likes and dislikes really makes it easier to help others decide. Just one more reason why I love it here.

My post got lost on page 136 so I will post it again, since ML is sold out in the canadian website too and I guess there are people who didn't buy theirs yet.

Vancouver girls,

MAC Metrotown still has 8 Marine Life. They'll restart selling on Thursday morning.

Audrey, Lazy Day is very similar to Angel. You can B2M for Angel later and save $ for another Chanel similar pink glossimer

 

[BloodMittens]

Yay! My order has been processed.

I ordered at 5:39PM CST

 

[Miss Dynamite]

Somebody said that Macy's had free shipping for orders over $50, but when I added up some items, it said shipping was $10. How do I get the free shipping?

If ML is even brighter, I will have to be very careful with it. I am worried about my self control. I am afraid if my counter have any left on Thursday, I will be tempted. Seems like EVERYONE is getting ML, if nothing else from the collection. I feel like I am the only one that won't have one. I feel silly even saying that... it's terrible how stressful this whole situation is for everyone... Makeup buying and collection should be fun! You can cut the tention in this thread with a knife!! EEK! I hate when the LE frenzy gets this bad. This is when I impluse buy. I get all paniced that I won't have time to think about things before they sell out, so I buy right on the spot, and regret 99% of those purchases later.

Don't give in, especially when it sounds like you aren't even sure if you want this. Given the limited number of these, you won't be the only one w/o it. You probably have something similar to this in your makeup collection already.

Save up your $$$ for something that you really do want.

Sand & Sun e/s is sold out on the website! My predictions are all wrong today! I thought Sweet & Punchy would be the first eyeshadow to go as well as Firecracker since they are VPs. I bet you Thrills l/s will be sold out next.

 

[Flaminbird]

I thought Macy's has the free shipping only at certain times and they give you a code.

On another note my friend was showing me the old Rushmetal collex MAC had in 2007 which had a l/s called Thrills. It looks nothing like this Thrills

. Not sure if it was mentioned or not before.

I thought so too...either that or FoF.

Really? I thought I read that they were the same. That might explain why I don't have it from before.

I'm surprised about Sand & Sun too. I love Thrills! I'm resisting the call of the backup.

 

[marusia]

The thrills swatches look the same to me.

 

[MUALindsay]

Looks like my Nordstrom's order has shipped... (with ML) but MAC Pro still says pending... it usually does that, though.
