Re: MAC - Holiday 2008 "Red She Said" Discussion
I finally got Queen's Sin, so I'm happy; a pretty red holiday lipstick, hurray! Red She Said lipstick just didn't do it for me. On me, it was just way too pink and terribly underwhelming.
Now, Queen's Sin (and Dubonnet!) can join the ranks alongside So Scarlet, Port Red, Russian Red, Kirsch, Rapturous, Classic Dame, Sci-Fi-Delity, "O" and more! Can you tell I'm hooked on red lipsticks??

Wooo! I love Dubonnet. And Rapturous! And Dare You from the new Cremesheens.
And along with my CoC lipglass and Warning! Lip Varnish I'm all set for red holiday lips. ;-)

Re: MAC - Holiday 2008 "Red She Said" Discussion
I LOVE QUEEN'S SIN.
That should be a perm red lippie.
So Scarlet and Red She Said just don't even measure up. Which is why I haven't gotten either.

Oh, see, I adore So Scarlet. But then, I'm not into a lot of frosty stuff, so SS suits me better in general. SS and Russian Red are my two favourite red lipsticks. RSS just kind of sucks, which is why I skipped it.

I would say you mean normal Lebkuchen, not Pfefferkuchen. But I can't tell you exactly what the difference is  You can all eat it during christmas

Anyway, if not, I will just have a sugar free vanilla latte or caramel macchiato - that will satisfy the flavoured coffee craving (when it hits) without the sugar.

Re: MAC - Holiday 2008 "Red She Said" Discussion
The collection was just released here in London and I just got my Red, She Said stuff today!! I'm so happy with my purchases  I got Stark Naked blush, Danger Zone MES and Love Alert d/g! They are sooo pretty! I was also contemplating getting the Red, She Said l/s too coz it just looked so pretty under Love Alert.. But I'm gonna try it out with my Port Red and Queen's Sin to see if using either of them will have the same overall effect.  heheh. but for now, I am soo happy with what I got!
