I'm starting to think they just didn't order much if they are already selling out of lipsticks.

I didn't get Marine Life and I was there an hour after the store opened.

GAB deserves some love! I decided I am going to get one next week! I wish I could buy one from your counter so they don't feel left out!

It was the only thing I bought from this collection! I was going to get a cream bronzer or hipness but I have too many bronzers already and I got Instant Chic instead of Hippness.

I have to be careful when using Get-Away Bronze since I'm so pale, it can easily be over done.

RayanaBanana, I would like to see GAB on you if you do FOTD

Me too! I was more making sure I got the e/s and forgot to get Hipness because it looks pretty when the m/a put it on me.

^^ i wanted it all along but than after spending about $60, i just put my order in.. to be honest if i did not drop $40 at the CCO this past month, I would have done it but i really do not want to spend over $100 on mac in a month

is it really that necessary? is it available anywhere? any simimlar dupes at all?

 

[mtrimier]

yeaaahh....i didn't have a dream last night that i was at a counter and got talked into buying Lazy Day or anything...noope. not at all..

 

[BEA2LS]

^^ when i was in my buying frenzy i had mac dreams, too!

 

[LittleMaryJane]

All these MAC dreams

I'm surprised I haven't dreamt about ML at this point

 

[SCWaveGirl81]

Okay, Flurry of Fun is AMAZING. Just ordered a back up. I haven't thought so highly of a lip product since pink fish, or maybe lollipop loving... but I think I might even like it better.

I would call them up now to see if they have any left! Fairview usually sells out of the popular items really quickly. Two days ago, the Bay at Yorkdale was out, but the f/s store still had some.

Ah yes! The silvery pinks of the 80's! Mine was from Bonne Bell, it was called Silver City Pink. Blinding is definitely the most accurate way of describing the frost on these!

I've noticed this to be the case more so with collections this year. I'm wondering if it's because of all the overstock they are sometimes left with, which ends up in the EL warehouse? You'd think though that they would be able to anticipate what some of the more popular colours would be and produce greater quantities of those. I went to an EL sale once, and there were boxes of Moth Brown left the same time that it was on ebay for inflated prices! I got it for $7!!!

Get it!!! I was supposed to be on a gloss no buy as well (esp. MAC) and I could resist!!! It puts a lot of my glosses to shame!

I spent at the CCO too and I hear ya on spending so much in one month on cosmetics. I think back to when I only bought drugstore stuff and how cheap it was yet I bought so many things that either didnt look right on me or didnt work out right so I figure I wasted money there. I'm not sure if Hipness is available anywhere. I will check the Macy's by my house tomorrow and see if they have it otherwise maybe a CCO will have it! Teehee!

I loveee the pink side of Marine Life, I wish there was more pink than coral like in the original picture!

For the past few days, I've been using Sun Rush with my Mufe Face and Body foundation. I put a few drops into it on the back of my hand and I LOVE the result. My dry skin looks so alive with this combo. I will be getting a backup. It's not up for debate now. And now I really do want Beachbound and Easy Lounger. I will go to a Mac counter this weekend for that.

Off topic:I said this in the WOC thread, but why didn't anyone tell me how awesome Fleur Power blush is? I LOVE it so damn much. I saw it in a youtube video as someone's favorites during the month of May and I ran right out and got it. Also, I ordered Vegas Volt (finally!) and I don't know why I hesitated b/c it's gorgeous. I also finally got Impassioned and love it. After wearing bright lips for so long, I toned it down, for a change, but now the bright lip loving gal in me wants to go back to that!
