Exactly!

I'm really loooooving my Sun Rush lustre drops!

I'm thinking about getting another one, too! I've used it almost every day for the last two weeks.

I'm actually kind of sad that there is nothing new coming out for another month. I blew out my knee over a week ago.

I can't do anything thanks to how ridiculously long it takes me to move around with my crutches, and it's starting to get me down.

I've spent a lot of time looking at TTB, and now I'm considering picking up one of the cream bronzers, too. I normally don't do bronzers, but I'm curious to see if I can make it work.... I didn't care for the way the MA put it on me during my TTB appointment, but I might stop in to see my fave MA to see if she can offer any tips. Plus, bringing home a black MAC bag would definitely cheer me up!

I have one back up (Life's A Breeze) now. I'm wondering if it's enough for years to come.

I wish it were permanent.

Just placed yet another MAC order. Damn you free overnight shipping! I ordered a couple of ttb items, a 15 palette, and some e/s pans. *Sigh*

I'm almost ashamed to see the ups man again.... he has been here like 4 times in the past week. And he was here today! lol.

This collection is sooo beautiful!! I picked up Thrills and Firecracker. My counter was sold out of FoF and Weekend so I didn't get that. No Marine Life but since a wonderful specktra member sold me hers I got my hands on it and it is absolutely gorgeous!!
th_DANCE.gif
Thank you Nelly711!!!!!!!!!! You are the bomb dot com!!!!! Since FoF was restocked on the website, I just might pick that up and then I'm done until In the Groove!!

I'm desperately trying to decide what to get... Love mermaids, starfish and sea related things (I used to have seahorses too!) AND I'm always a sucker for packaging. *Cry*

I want:
Sweet and Punch, Shimmermoss, and Firecracker
Flurry of Fun and Splashing
Thrills
Hipness
Golden Bronzer
Beach Bronze
Temperature Rising and Life's a Breeze
Marine Life x2
130 x2
131

But that would cost me $802.

Opinions please!

..you mean 208, right? Because I bought more than that and I think I'd have to start living in a box if I dropped a grand on makeup in two weeks.
lol.gif


Anyway.. I would say if you're looking to save money, get Shimmermoss later or at least in a pro pan, since it's perm.

Do you have any other bright greens/chartreuses? If you have Rated "R" from last year's Starflash collex, you can probably skip Sweet & Punchy. (I did not, so I got S&P and love it
tong.gif
)

I say Firecracker is a must. It's a really wearable red-orange. I'm super pale, but it doesn't make me look like I've been crying or anything, which I was at first afraid it might.
lol.gif
I feel it's really versatile too - can be worn with golds, bronzes, pinks, greens...

Flurry of Fun is a MUST. Splashing is nice, but not INCREDIBLY unique. I bought it and haven't worn it yet, but I've worn FoF a few times already.

I have worn both Thrills and Hipness almost every day since launch. I love them both. Thrills is great, even though I usually hate the texture of Frosts (they dry my lips out very easily, usually). The bronze sheen to it isn't too much.

I can't comment on the bronzers; I didn't get any.

Temp Rising is a must, I think - unique, easy to blend. Bold enough to wear on its own as a pseudo-stain on more pigmented lips (like mine), but can easily be toned down some with gloss or a lighter application (just used as a liner and filling in the lips by bringing it in with a brush from the lipline).

LaB is nice. I think it's a perfect pink lip pencil - it's true PINK, not too brown, not too bright.

I bought a Marine Life and haven't used it yet because I don't want to ruin the overspray
th_crazy.gif
so I can't comment on if it's worth it or not. With that one though.. I think people are beyond reason.
lol.gif


I don't have either brush, but isn't the 130 going to be perm now? Maybe get one now, and get a second one later if you need it? No reason to get two now, since they'll be around...

HTH!

I have too much product anyway

... soo, I am trying to be more creative with existing products

How do you like the paintsticks? Do they crease if worn under e/s? I want them to play with!

I'm right there with you in the feeling sad department. I'm always kind of scared when there's a long break between MAC collections though. I tend to go on some kind of crazy buying spree because I'm anxious or feeling deprived or whatever!
lol.gif


I hope your knee feels better soon! Take it easy and play with a big box-o-MAC on the couch and enjoy a movie...that always seems to cheer me up.
