What is your latest haulage?

[Septemba]

I haven't ordered any BBR yet, I'm still not sure what I want!! What will I kick myself for not getting if I miss out? Any recs or HGs?

I think with BBR, you really need to try everything on your face. Having said that, I bought everything without swatching and I am happy with everything (except Live & Dye)

I am thinking about going back to try Deep Shade though. I love all the shadows & MSFs (blonde & redhead).

Today, I spent $96 at Inglot and got so many stuff!

Translucent loose powder
Gel liner in Black
Duraline
Pigment #45
Pigment #98 - free!

I was looking at their brushes, which look almighty similar to MAC brushes... The girl said they are from the same factory?

Nat I was told that too.. who knows. Apparently MAC, Inglot and Bobbi Brown brushes are made in the same factory. That might either be true or crap. However, I bought an awesome blending brush from Inglot - AWESOME I tell you. It's so soft and it seriously just blends the crap out of everything. I also played with their kabuki brush and it looks/feels identical to my 182, so there you go. They're also significantly cheaper.

 

[Septemba]

There's your precious HG powder, sambi!

I'm happy for you that you found it! I think I will get an MSF at least, maybe a lippie... thinking about Chignon? I'm trying to get more pigmented lippies because I'm moving on from hoarding nudes.

I'm chronic, I just placed that order yesterday and I'm trying to get the MAC site to let me process Strada and VGV + VGV SE lipglasses now.

So jealous of everyone hitting up Inglot!!

I spoke to my local MAC store manager.. Forgot to ask her about B2M for LE stuff, but when I asked her to put aside some Cremesheen lippies (Shy girl/Creme Cup/Lickable), she said she can't do that for LE stuff! So I said those lippies are not LE and she said, 'they are LE in our store'. Speechless.

When the girl rolled out her pouch full of brushes, I asked her, 'are they MAC brushes?' and she said, 'no they are Inglot brushes'. Doh.. I am so dumb. Why would they carry MAC brushes there? lol

Yeah MSFs are great.. Chignon seems to be the darkest out of the BBR lippies lol..

I love VGV & VGVI SE!! They are gorgeous

If you could only get one thing I would recommend Redhead MSF

Yeah, MAC is sucky at the moment. They wont even hold stuff for people now if it's LE.

i b2m for b-babe.
really i think we be able to b2m for e/s they are cheaper anyways.

 

[sambibabe]

Which store did you go to Repunzel? DJ?

 

[sambibabe]

Today my favorite MUA confirmed that I could B2M for any lipsticks, as long as they are not specially packaged like DE or HK! I hope she was right and I will make sure I will bring all my empties to HER, not the manager girl

 

[HotPinkHeels]

I stopped past Mac Pro on my lunch break the other day and picked up -

Shy Girl and Partial to Pink from Cream Team - love!!

Wait until I try mine first!! She also said you can B2M eyeshadows & lipstuff at the pro store? WTF? For real?

I always wanted to try OPI and China Glaze? Does anyone know where I can grab Seche Vite except from ebay?

 

[simplyenchantin]

Are you serious about b2m for e/s at the pro store? Can you please get that in writing? I'd so love e/s more than lipsticks!

 

[sambibabe]

Yeah, she definitely said eyeshadow & lipgloss... I was wondering if she was confused with US stores lol.. I would ring and ask, actually.
