It kinda reminds me of the midnight releases of Harry Potter that I've gone too
But much more fun because there's alcohol and makeup!

I hope I can attend the event at my counter! My MA couldn't find his sheet that said when the event was, so he told me to call him in a few days. There was some totally batty lady there driving him nuts, so I think he was a little frazzled LOL.

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion
I am so so excited about dark deed lipstick even though it wasn't even on my list when I first saw the collection. I am feeling very vampish lately. I also can't wait to pick up the 3 nail polishes from Malificent.
I tried searching for Orly brand at shoppers and winners but no luck.
I am also getting more excited about the cooling powder. I tried this cooling concealer stick at sephora and almost bought it just for that reason even though the color didn't match. lol
I want to go to the preveiw party if they are having one here in Vancouver but then Ill definately get more than planned.

I saw the BOA blush (sooo pretty!), the bronze loose powder, one of Cruella's shadows, one of Evil Queen's shadow, and then there was a lippie but I didn't get to see what it was. So excited now! |

I hope I don't geek out when I see Maleficent. She's really the only one I care about. I'm thinking about letting a Mac artist do my eyes, but that means going to work with nothing but foundation (b/c I can't use Mac's), having strangers stare at me while it's getting done and being in a small, crowded environment even longer (and I really hate crowds).
I will be there before 7 b/c I want to see everything. When I went to the Make Up Arts event, items migrated and I had to track them down. Me no likey. It is nice, though to strike up a convo with strangers. Last time, I saw a lot of WOC wearing really bright (and surprisingly well done) make up. It made me proud.

Just called my MAC store and ask about the Venomous Villains preview event and she got my name and number so that she can call me and ask me what time that I'm going to come to the event! This is so exciting! Going to be banned from MAC until this collection!

Is it just pre-order at the party or will you get to leave with the products you want?

I signed up for the even at Nordies today! It's the day after the collection comes out, but the MA said I can come in and pre-order everything that I want! I'm super stoked!

I'm at $157.
However, may change when I swatch Vainglorious, French Quarter and De-Vil.
Preview party sounds so cool!
Even if we had one, I wouldn't be able to go.

I'm sitting at $109.50. But, if I do end up getting an invite to the launch party, I could definitely be persuaded to spend a little more!

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion
i forgot to mention that i got violetta yesterday
and it is a wonderful lipstick!
mine is in normal packaging of course, but i was wondering what look to do on the eyes with this lippie. i'm guessing something simple because it is quite a statement lipstick
but any recs would be great!

I like wearing it with muted gold colours- I find they make my eyes pop, but not so much that it interferes with the bold lipstick.
