I personally think SR is the most versatile..Since it's a clear gloss it looks good on top of anything IMO ... It's my favorite of them all.

It deposits so much colour, I use the tiniest bit, hardly anything, and it makes the prettiest pinky blush. I have to use so liitle... I will never, ever hit the pan on this one!!

The BPBs are fabulous for being able to get just a wee bit of colour. Do you have Shy Beauty? That's one of my absolute favourites! Just a light hint of a pretty apricot colour. <3
Also, thanks for the compliment.

I bought Shy Beauty, and may or may not have got rid of it. I thought I was going to love it, from looking at it in the pan, but didn't like the shimmery-frost thing it did when on my cheeks.
Stark Naked doesn't show much glimmer -- just a bit -- enough to make a bit of a glow, but not a glitter. I definitely like SN better!

Weird. I don't get much shimmer off my Shy Beauty, just a soft, wonderful colour. Glad you found a friend in SN, though!!

Crazee. It is a nice coral red!
Baby Sparks. Glittery, pale, and pink!

Thanks! That's what I thought TBH. I haven't really got a gloss like that, mine are all on the pinky side (but I love pink so I don't mind too much  )

Thanks! Defo getting Crazee. I still can't decide between the two dazzleglasses so I think I'm just going to have to get both

 How many alarm clocks do you have and what time do you set them? I hope you can sleep tonight.

Re: MAC - Holiday 2008 "Red She Said" Discussion
I recently went to the Mac counter and spent a ton of money on their Holiday collection. I bought 2 out of 3 of the brush sets as well. 2 days later I saw on Nordies site they have the same brush sets for $35. On Mac and everywhere else it $49.50. That is a $30 difference plus almost $10 tax. I emailed Mac 4x before I got an answer, it was a generic response saying they were sorry I was upset about their prices. No, I bought 2 of the sets, I was upset of the fact Nordies was $15 cheaper. I then spoke to a manager and she said every Department store has to go by Mac rules except for Nordies. She said they can put their own price on anything. Mac found out at the last minute how low Nordies went with the brush set price and was shocked as well. They started a case file to give to the head honcho at Mac. If you are one of the people that paid full price you can email Mac and put in case # 88466. The more emails the better it will help show the managers how unfair it was on us loyal Mac addicts. They would not re-imburse me the price difference even though all I wanted was a store credit. In 11 years of buying Mac I have returned something 1 time!. I dont post here alot but I know many of you got duped and this might help. I told them I would even show them or mail them my store reciept for the $30 difference and they didnt have to pay me back the taxe money and they still said no. I dont know where to post this but if someone does, please pass it on.
Take care and have a good weekend

Well there is the one next to my bed, the one in my bathroom (has to be there. It ticks to loud that it drives me nuts when I want to sleep  ) Hmm and my cellphone. So three!
The store opens 11 AM so I can work a bit before I leave so I will get up at 7. 
But I sure need one or two glasses of wine later to be sleepy enough to go to bed!

How nasty. Rubbing those new categories under our noses and not linking them to the products.
