aw i hope ill like fashion frenzy!! i wanted hipness but sold out

and it was restocked literally 2 seconds after i ordered so im bummed about that but i ordered joyous b/p/b

fashion frenzy is lighter than dollymix, although it looks quite bright. thought hipness was a bit like fleur power, which I already have. I have dolymix too, I have way too many blushers

Joyous was just beautiful, one of the nicer beauty powders, but I have a few peachy coloured blushers so passed on it. Joyous and hipness were quite similar, I liked Joyous more

I ordered some stuff with my pro preffered card this morning. You couldn't order the scarf though and it's sold out online...Im so upset

I bought:

Blacktrack Fluidline
Nice Vice Paint Pot (x2)
Cash Flow Paint Pot
Fafi Quad 1

I was debating buying 'Sugar Trance' lipgloss and 'Not So Innocent' lipstick but decided I'd rather not but before I try them as I want something very natural but with a peachy/nude colour to it. I really wish I'd bought 2N lipstick

I picked up three little things yesterday... High Top, Fun N Sexy and Hipness. I checked out the whole collection, but like a lot of comments here, it all just didn't spark my imagination, which is sad. Hipness is amazing though, it really changed the look of my face as I normally wear pink blushes, so I'm happy about it

While I was there I "found out" that Heatherette isn't at counters... this upset me but then I logged on here and see that it's been common knowledge for a while *slaps forehead* Fingers crossed for online!!

I visited the nottingham store yesterday and got Shy Beauty beauty powder blush. It's gorgeous! Soooo pretty (am wearing it today and admiring myself in the mirror at every opportunity -

)
I was torn between getting that and Joyous, which is such a lovely colour, but I tried it on and it was just a bit toooo bright for me- as i am really pale- although I think it's just that I'm a bit scared of strong blusher! Really sweet colour though.
I also picked up a four-slot palette and am going to have my first attempt at depotting some eyeshadows today- wish me luck!

Does anyone happen to know if the Nottingham store are good about accepting de-potted e/s for B2M??

 

[Dani California]

Does anyone have both Fashion Frenzy and Sweetness blush? I got both but dunno if its worth having both.

FF was the only fafi thing I got,so dunno whether to hang onto it or not...........and it looks really bright.

I’m now no longer “Waiting for Fafi” as my order finally arrived this lunchtime. I’ve had a quick look at everything and so far, I’m reckoning that I’ve not chosen particularly well! Sassed Up looks lovely in the compact (which is great – love the gloss finish) but I’m not sure if it will be nice on me as it’s very peachy-looking. The only other thing I got from the collection is Strawbaby which could also be unflattering on me. Oh well, I’ll have a play about with all the stuff when I get home from work tonight.

I also got one of the Beauty Powder Blushes, Feeling. I hope I can manage to apply it without it looking odd as it seems quite a dark and scary shade in the pan … My Strobe Current lip conditioner looks lovely and quite pigmented, but I don’t know how it looks on yet.

I'm still waiting for fafi, maybe the orders are being delayed because everyone ordering at the same time, my order hasn't even been shipped yet! >

it's actually really irritating cos I can if I want to, just jump on the tube and I can go to the Pro store myself. I'm just chained to the library at the moment which is why I can't go to the store...

I bought both and I am really glad with this decision. They may look similar, but they give two completely different results!
Sweetness on the one hand is not as bright as it seems first, the finish is really soft and it does not give so much color.
Fashion Frenzy on the other hand is great for a bright (summer) look!

Don't forget that the Beauty Powder blushes have another result than the usual blushes!

Really disappointed. Went to check it out today, and the only thing I bought was Fafi Eyes 1. The scarf was sold out. The dolls were sold out. The scarf was sold out. Meh

The beauty powder blushes are gorgeous, I really like the two I got, sweetness and true romantic. Was gonna take FF back as it looks way bright,but I might hang on to it, if it is a different finish to sweetness........I know I'll kick myself in months to come as well!!

Thanks!!

Was on a night out last night and my best mate had Cult fave lipglass and its gooorgeous really pigmented for a lipglass too so i ordered one today in addition to sugar trance xx

 

[Susanne]

I visited my counter again this morning (it is Saturday!) and the Fafi dolls have still yet arrived! I got Ermine

 

[Miss_M]

I went to check out the Fafi collection at my counter yesterday. Was a bit disappointed, lots of bright colors, which are not really my thing, so I only got Cult Fave lipglass and Perky and Girl Friendly paintpots. Still debating on Fafi eyes 1 though. I really wanted Fashion Frenzy, but it was way too bright and Hipness was very orangey, so I skipped those. I also loved Sassed-Up, but I found all the IP a little too glittery. I just don't want to look like a disco ball at my age anymore.

My counter also had the beauty blushes so I got Shy Beauty, a beautiful soft apricot. I also really liked True Romantic (a very soft dusty mauve) so I might go back for that one.

I got Girls Will Be Girls nail varnish - which kind of easily peeled off my nail - are all MAC varnishes like this? It's my first one.
Also got Totally It - so pretty, and Strobe Blossom.

My order arrived yesterday. I'm satisfied with what I've bought. I was a bit scared of Fun 'n' Sexy at first but its not too bright at all. One layer of colour is enough for me but if I wanted to give the colour an extra 'pop' then I would probably use Hothouse or Totally It lipglass over it. Sugar Trance and Cult Fave are quite nice.

Hipness blush is gorgeous. I don't have that type of colour in my blush collection so I thought it was a great addition. Fashion Frenzy is a sweet colour. You don't need a heavy hand to apply it because as many others have said, its quite bright.

I skipped the Quads and IPs. The colours looked boring and I knew I wouldn't use the IP because of the glitter. I did purchase the Ermine and Eriko dolls. They're really cute.

Its a shame the products have stickers on them. Other than that, the collection was alright but nothing special. I'm saving up for Heatherette now

I love pink and from the swatches I've seen it looks a lot better than Fafi.

My order also arrived yesterday, I got fun and sexy l/s totally it l/g hipness blush and perky p/p. I LOVE fun and sexy it lasts ages on me really nice with the lipgloss. Hipness blush is gorg I also dont have a colour like this in my collection. The paint pot ? well Iam not sure It doesnt really show up but I wore it under pinky colours and it looked pretty.

 

[browneyedbaby]

Hmm, I'm thinking I should have got Fun n' Sexy now... hadn't realised it was a glaze so thought it'd be too bright.

Fun n sexy is still up on the website. I thought alot more of the make up would have been sold out by now though but when I saw the collection in person I didn't get as much as I thought I would either
