The delivery driver always comes before anybody starts work, then doesn't come back again 'til 12, it's torture.

I'm also waiting for my little black box! *stalks the DHL van*

 

[Kirsty]

I've got a feeling my little black box wont be so little this time.

ETA: My box is here!!! The LoL boxes are so pretty.

 

[lovesongx]

Haha my DHL man is due too, is the fact that I know he'll be here at about 12.30 a sign I've ordered from MAC too many times?

EDIT: My order has arrived hooray! Waiting for my camera to charge now and then I'll be swatching til the cows come home!

love my goodies! the only thing i am disspaointed with is greengrease gps. this is because i thought it would have a touch more green in it. if i had known it was pretty much black when a green sheen i would have skipped it. because really it'll make no difference over the black gps i alreay have!

Same here, at least it can be used as a shadow/liner too

I finally made it into a MAC store today - and B2M'd for the very last Ever Hip lipstick (phew!). I was quite disappointed with Birds and Berries, which was the one item at the top of my wishlist - I hadn't quite appreciated it was so iridescent (sort of like Club - which looks awful on me) - so I passed

I also picked up Frankly Fresh lipglass - I was surprised I actually really like this! It looks a bit blah in the tube, but it's a wonderful peachy nude with good pigmentation.

 

[Kirsty]

I love the lipglasses, they are so creamy & opaque. It's nice to have something different besides a bunch of shimmer & not much colour pay-off.

Also the lipstain markers taste really good

i swatched Stylesetter on my hand when I first opened my box yesterday & it's still there.

Yeah, I've read that too. I think it's because it's a viscose blend (and obviously, the print is pretty vile) Just had a look on Liberty's website and they have some amazing print, silk scarfs for £85...... if I had that to spend on a scarf that is.

So how's everyone's haul working out? I've not used any of my GPS yet, but the pearlglides are pretty!

 

[Kirsty]

I'm not sure I like Blooming Lovely on me, which is odd because I love Lavender Whip. (Although I didn't have any oter make-up on so will have to try again) On the other hand I love Ever Hip, which I was going to skip at first, so yay

i've never had a colour like it before and although i think it looks ok with my skin tone, i still have no idea on what to wear on the rest of my face with it!

I loved the look of Blooming Lovely, but knew it wouldn't look good on my so skipped it. I agree with Ever Hip though it's beautiful!

 

[banana1234]

blooming lovely is the best! hehe

no seriously, i wore it with two virtues mineralize blush, and Azalea blossom ombre with a teal smokey eye. i've done this a couple times and it looked buff! I also topped it with lavender wind ligplass

hotness!! i love it

i wish i had lavender whip!

 

[DollyGirl92]

Same issue, what to do with my face.
I had fun with my birthday prezzies today, making combinations, Fez from NARS, below ground are nice together, and Dirty looks pretty nice with birds and berries

 

[Kirsty]

I tried Blooming Lovely on again, with neutral eye make-up, and I now really like it. Petals & Peacocks rocks too. It's so much more flattering than Show Orchid which is too neon & harsh.

<pics gone>

 

[LMD84]

^very nice kirsty!

 

[ilexica]

I went to have a look at Art Supplies a couple of days ago and ended up only picking up full of flare LSM. I liked the look of the liners, though. I'm going back tomorrow (forgot to see if they had Rose Maiden - d'oh) so I might succumb to one then! Any recommendations on stand out colours?

Kirsty, is that a new haircut? It looks gorgeous!

 

[amy_forster]

The purple liner is gorgeous!
