Wow! I'm a Lost fan. That really is the island! Thanks for the pic!

Yes, Im on that side of the island far, far away from the the tourist ridden Honolulu. That valley in the back ground is where they did most of the filming, if you would like I can send you a link to the pictures I took on the set location

i read on naturalnchicmakeup blog that if you were to mix the darker side of marine life with more of the lighter one, you will get colour of hipness. here's the link

long timw no see! studying for my law exams and its quite draining so was in MAC heaven yday when to the beach launched

.. my MA told me tht all the MLs were "reserved" even tho they have a strict no reservation policy here. was so pissed! Anyhoo, i got to another store at 10 in the morning.. and asked the MA for an ML.. he told me tht its "sold out".. like how!! so i told him to chk fi they cud spare one ML somehow... he spoke to his manager and I got my ML!... funnily, all the MA's were saying tht its nothing speacial and t they didint realise tht it wud be a hot-selling item... hmm maybe they need to come onto Specktra!! also, i wasnt attracted too much by anything else.. Hipness was nice but as the MA and I were discussing, its kinda lighter/less brighter version of Joie De Vivre,and I have it so i skipped. Funbathing was exactly like O minus the pretty sheen/frost. Lazy Day didint look THAT great on. Flurry of fun was pretty weird... it looked like I had too much gloopy blue glitter on my lips.. not a pretty look.. maybe it wud look better with something underneath? honestly i didint like the too much glitter look. Thrills loeked pretty when i swatched it but on my lips... i hated it.. coppery frosty mess on me

. I like Get away bronze but have too many bronzy/brown products so i skipped... the MA did try weekend bronzer on me with refined golden on top.. it LOOKED AMAZINGG... i had only a one item haul in the end... tho i did catch up with my MA afterwards on the phone, and she said tht the creme bronzer and the bronze oil were actually great products but kinda overshadowed by the rest... I may go back for the creme bronzer.. it stayed on till ( last night (from 10 in the morning).. The liners were pretty but i dont do lip liners and I ahve undercurrent

I was brave and wore TR today - just with FoF over it, Hipness, and some mascara. (I ws running late for class, haha.)

TR is SO not scary once it's actually on the lip. My lips are so pigmented it just turns into a beautiful corally shade. I almost didn't put any gloss on at all over it; the pencil alone just looked like a nice stain on me.

Tomorrow I think I will try TR with Buzz. I can't explain how excited I am for this one.

FYI: I emailed Pro and they said they'd credit me for my TTB purchases.

Only, sadly, I spent $200 at Nordstroms - since all of the TTB wasn't up on Pro, yet. Oh well, $35 is $35!

Winnie and sapnap, glad you both got ML! Enjoy your goodies!

I will not be able to get ML since they are all sold out, but I will still visit the counter tomorrow just to look at the collection.

Ooh I didn't know it was the Lost island--how exciting

Haha I loved Lost. I wouldn't mind seeing any pictures you have

 

[VanillaCupcake]

Still considering getting cream bronzer. Does anyone have any opinions on it?

Hope you'll be able to get the stuff that you want from this collection!

It's silly that Marine Life is sold out via pre-orders, when they're not even allowed to reserve items in the first place. Wth.

Awesome, that's what I needed to hear. Mine are really pigmented too so I'm hoping to get that pretty coral shade. It sold out right after I ordered mine. I'm glad you guys talked me into it now

My ML came in the mail today

Omg this is seriously gorgeous

I would like to thank Obscuria. Now I want a backup...but I AM NOT going to pay evilbay prices for it. (Arrrrgh it makes me so mad that they're ripping people off. Also I want to say that it pissed me off that they let that woman buy 12 ML

She's probably the one selling on evilbay. Hope nobody buys from her so she can see that she can't be a greedy ass bitch. Sorry I had to say it. )
Anyway I'm really excited that I got at least one

I'm going to try to post pics later of my goodies that I bought thursday. I bought:

Hipness bpb
FOF lipgloss (I got the last one)
Shell Pearl (I had to get it)

I liked lazy day l/s but couldn't afford to get too many things but it's ok. As long as I got what I really wanted

 

[clslvr6spd]

Hi Elegant! I have missed you!

I have to express my love for this collection! I absolutely love FoF, I have 2 might have to get 3. I have used this l/g almost everyday, just pure SEX!

 

[Visi]

I'm so excited

I got home last night and there was ML and FoF waiting for me! I love love love Marine Life, it's so pretty, and I love the color!
I've been really careful only to use the sides of it, so the overspray is still on the seahorse

I just can't bring myself to swipe it off!

I have to admit though, I don't know if I'm brave enough for FoF - I was able to check it out at the mall on the way home and WOW it is sparkly. I will prob send the one I ordered online back, unless someone on here would like it. It's unused, so just pm me, otherwise I'm returning it Monday

But yeah, I would really like a backup of ML
