I've been to Guildford, picked up my Extra Dimension order from HoF (apparently I managed to order 2 Fiery Impact blushes due to placing the order on my phone - doh!) and looked at the ED e/s, but only picked up 4, didn't get the silver and mauve ones in the end. Swatched everything else and decided not to get anything, even the brown dazzle lipstick didn't interest me. The only thing I briefly considered getting was Mooncake paint pot, it's very pretty, but I have loads of beige/gold paint pots and other cream e/s, and really don't need any more. I also thought about buying Lavender Whip lipstick, it looked better than I expected, but it's still not really "me". :)

What's with the virtual waiting room?

Yay just ordered my Riri Woo! It took about 8 minutes in the virtual waiting room thing. I have to agree with people in the US it was a very easy process, and it came up pretty much dead on 11am. Very pleased with Mac for how they've gone about this lipstick launch. I wish other releases went as smoothly as this.

I already have a couple from Marilyn haha! I'm trying not to buy any makeup that I'm not in love with, but it's always so tempting when LE highly coveted things are still available!

Just ordered Flaming Chic ED Blush from Debenhams, I'm happy with just that - typically missed the 10% off e-mail though before placing my order!

Has anyone seen that new thing from Quidco where if you register your debit or credit card with them you get cash back on your offline purchases as well. Seems a bit too good to be true! Debenhams is a participant among others apparently.

Agreed! If it's still there by sundown I might just cave. Are you liking the Bare My Soul quad?

I haven't worn it yet, only swatched! I'm loving my ED stuff at the moment so that's what I'm wearing today :) I think I'll need to back up Opalesse though because I can see myself using it A LOT

What did you get from ED? I'm loving the 4 eyeshadows and the skinfinishes I got. I'm not sure about the blushes yet, they're nowhere near as creamy/soft/pigmented as the e/s and sf.

Basically it's kind of like being in a queue online when you buy things like concert tickets. So you know how it can sometimes have like countdown saying you can buy in so many minutes? So I guess with this lipstick being such a big deal they've tried to make it fair, especially by only allowing you to get 1 per order. So the way it worked today, there was no having to search for product names or anything like that. On the home screen it said Riri woo launches at 11 am May 3rd, and at 11 the screen changed to show it had launched, and when you clicked on it a new page came up saying 'your riri woo is coming. You're order for riri woo is being processed. Do not refresh or exit the page'. And the whole time the screen was refreshing itself, I guess kind of like moving you up in the queue. And eventually (for me it took 8 minutes) the screen changed to show the lipstick in your bag ready for you to check out. I hope that makes sense? I'm sure I've probable done the worst job ever of explaining it lol.

Did you get any blushes? I'm not overly keen on them...

I got Bareness, At Dusk and Flaming Chic. I like the finish on them, the only thing is that I'll have to use a light hand with Flaming Chic. The others seem perfect for my pale skin.

I ended up with:

  1. Double Definition EDSF, which is beautiful!!
  2. Shape the Future EDSF
  3. At Dusk EDB (I didn't really like the other blushes

    )
  4. Opalesse EDES
  5. Smoky Mauve EDES
  6. Zestful EDES
  7. Extra Silver EDES
  8. Dimensional Blue EDES

ES and DB were a spur of the moment decision - I don't normally wear blues and silvers, but they were just too pretty to pass up! Or at least that's what I'm telling myself
