I don't have either to compare, but I remember several people talking about Hang Up, and they said it is a very wearable color in comparison to some of the darker vampier colors. Dark Deed seems as though it is a very dark color.

This may be a shot in the dark but how close are Hang Up and Dark Deed?

I know, but this is much more special than any old collection. Plus, I'm still waiting on dupes for some of my most favorite products.
I'll figure out a way to get them somehow. Hopefully my counter will have enough stock and I'll be there at 9 AM sharp. And I won't be buying 15 lipsticks.

For some reason, that makes me want Dark Deed more.
But- I must stay strong! I may switch from Violetta to Dark Deed at the counter when I go (I don't think it'll sell out right away) but I can't call again! I feel so obnoxious.

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion
I wore Ruby Woo earlier and had to come in and see what type of lipstick Heartless was..now its on my list because its Amplified which is one of my favorite finishes. Still on the fence about Vile Violet though.
To the poster who asked about the beauty powders for NW20's...if I was getting one, it would be Briar Rose.

Once I saw it on, I loved IB, so that's why I immediately got 2, but 15???? Hello?? That's insane.

Any more thoughts on Oh So Fair? It sucks that I will have to buy my things from the website without swatching.
I hope they work/show up on me.

Geez, I've been gone 5 or so days, and theres been 10+ pages added in the last day alone! I can't believe the posting rate on here sometimes
I'm getting quite fidgety for this collection now, I know what I want and I want it now!

the mac prostore on queen street has the collection out today and it wasn't busy when i went during lunch. i think the testers weren't even touched yet but might be a different story now 3 hours later.
i have all my "essentials" from this collection on hold until i go back tomorrow at lunch again. i'd have everything if it weren't for stupid debit card problems, seems like my husband's was flagged for fraud/copied card and now i think mine is too cuz of our joint account. it was just embarassing standing there wondering why my card wasn't working (i saved money for this collection) and thankfully the guy who helped me out was very nice and understanding. i asked them to leave everything in my reuseable jacob shopping bag so they know i'm coming back. hoping my visa doesn't catch on fire tomorrow, i really want to play with the new goodies.

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion
I am getting stressed just reading about the stress level in these posts.
Breathe in, and realize that this is just makeup -- it is not an MRI for a brain tumor -- life does indeed go on, and if our enjoyment of life rests on products, then maybe we should take a step back and look at things with a dose of reality.
sorry, makeup is my passion too but it is also my business... if I don't get something personally, I will carry on without it
maybe this doesn't help ease the stress but it might throw some perspective on these issues.

Re: MAC - Venomous Villains discussion
^ i agree HerGreyness. i managed to survive without a stereo rose for this long.
i think the stress from my post is mostly from finding out my husband's bank card has been messed with yet again and we can't think of any "sketchy" places where he could have used it, just our usual grocery store, gas station, abm, etc. the whole "card chip technology" is supposed to prevent fraud but not many retailers have the new card readers. so it gets a bit frustrating and embarassing when you're trying to purchase something and you get the message that you can't despite the fact that the funds are there. plus, this was a bit of retail therapy after a not so good week at work but i did enjoy my walk to the store and the nice mac SAs so that helped.
if i don't end up with anything from this collection i'll be fine (after the initial grumpyness for a few days
) and i'll have funds for for another fun activity.

OSF: definitely pigmented enough for a blush. i prefer a more natural, flushed look, though, so if you like a heavier cheek my opinion probably won't mean much.
my camera is AWFUL for swatches, but here is a picture anyway. i swatched it with my finger and then applied it with a brush above that, but i'm not sure if you'll be able to see it. hope it's at least a little helpful!
EDIT: I can't get images on here to save my life. but you can see the picture here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/35449648@N00/5018013361/
