I've been feeling completely fed up recently as my husband has been ill and my dear little cat died and I've been using both things as an excuse to overspend to supposedly cheer myself up. I know it's stupid!

God sounds just like me! i really enjoy shopping but worry its out of hand sometimes, i don't spend to far beyond my means but wonder how much cash i would have if i didn't buy useless things all the time. We should start a shopaholics anonymous group

Is Pink Pearl pigment Limited Edition? It hasn't got the triangle next to it. I think I might go into my overdraft and buy the rest of the collection.... I get my next student loan in may.

 

[ritchieramone]

Pink Pearl is a pro pigment, so you could get it any time.

Has everyone had their conformation email? I had an email yesterday saying I would get another email and it says on the MAC site within 24 hours, I know it's been under 24 hours but only by about 1 and a half hours. Maybe I'm just so excited to get it that I'm stressing something will go wrong and it won't come!!

You won't get another email till it's dispatched, I've always got the dispatch emails about 8pm on a night, that must be when Parcel line pick them all up. You'll probably get it tonight.

 

[Girl about town]

sometimes i get the dispatch email after its been delivered

quite useful.

well a cheery story for you all just looked out into my back garden, and some dirty scum has taken the hinges of the door of my garden hut with a screwdriver and stole our bikes, including my fiances new top of the range one

just waiting on the police coming pah!!!

anyway i think its shopping karma!!

 

[makeupmadb]

Sorry to hear that! I don't understand some people.

That's awful

 

[ritchieramone]

That really is dreadful; I hope you can get it sorted out and get the bikes back safely. An opportunistic theft is one thing (and a terrible one, obviously) but that's really something else.

 

[Girl about town]

im totally fraked out at the thought of someone prowling my garden with a screwdriver, the thing is our garden is round an alleyway that hardly anyone knows about so they must have been in before checking it out eeeewww!, makes me feel so violated x

I went back to Selfridges yesterday and additionally bought Hollywood Nights and Style Minx. I tried on both and had to have them. They are probably the best fuscia lipstick and lipglass out of all the ones in my collection. So now I have all the lipglasses and 2 lipsticks(including Lollipop Loving). I have to say I officially love this collection

 

[JesseVanity]

My order still says processing even though its next day delivery..and they've taken the money from my bank. I hope I get it tomorrow :/

 

[glam8babe]

sorry to hear about that girl about town

some people are complete ass holes! me mam used to ride her bike all over for exercise and she was goin to the post office, the woman wouldnt let her take it in the shop, so she had to leave it outside for 2 seconds.. it got nicked!!! i hope the woman who worked in the post office felt like shit

and i really want hollywood nights now!!! everyones saying how lovely it is.. i own about 5 hot pinks but a girl cant have too many pink lipsticks it will probs be sold out by the time i get more money though

Grr I think I'm kind of regretting getting Bonus Beat- I knew I should've got Sock Hop. Oh well I'll have to see when it arrives what it's like.

Did you get fleshpot to go with it?
I got both and I'm thinking about buying backups because fleshpot and bonus beat together looks so gorgeous.

Nope Lollipop Loving

I did have Sock Hop in my basket and then saw a swatch and thought it looked too orange so decided to get Bonus Beat. Now I don't think that looks very nice =/ Ah well, it's just so hard when you haven't tried them in r/l.

 

[Girl about town]

thats shocking theives really should have their hands cut off!!!

anyway back to heatherette im glad i bought all the lip colours, alll the lippys in this collection were made for me colour wise , i feel like i don't need to buy any more lipsticks/glosses for a good while. im worried i will like them too much and never be able to get anthing like them again xxxxx

 

[JesseVanity]

I know, I wish it hadnt just been a selfridges exclusive because I would have loved to have gone into MAC and got a heatherette makeover and seen everything in person before I bought them. Bonus beat is stll pretty on it's own as a nude lip though or over any colour, I'm sure you'll like it.

Same, it'd have been so much better. Yes I hope I do like it, it's just I'd heard how well Sock Hop went with Lollipop Loving but saw a swatch and thought it looked too orangey but seeing others I really want it. Hah, but I guess that's the whole problem; everytime you get a little bit you want more.

 

[JesseVanity]

I wish I could get Lollipop loving to work for me..it just doesn't show up
