And now, with Passions of Red, it's back to colors that actually can be worn on a day to day basis, who wants that? lol.

- oh well, I am sure I'll get one of those anyways!

well duhhh guys.. of course you can't use all of those colors together everyday. You don't have to use all of the colors in the pallet together. I never intend to actually.

I already have plumage... so I use my electric eel with plumage and a highlighter

You can also put bitter or I've even used sharp on my lid, electric eel and carbon in my outer corner

I use playful nano gold/ and lotus land and say top hat in my crease

hell deep truth just goes around you know I use that with anything

The only color i havent used yet is going bananas.. but its all good I know i'll get around to it.

I don't think you guys have to feel confined to sticking with colors in a palette.

Let your creative juices flow!

but with the exchange it would be the same thing lol. you guys dont have to pay taxes in the states? thats the only difference.

i think depends on the states, a lot of them don't have to pay for sales taxes when they order their mac online (which is why a lot of ppl do that to save money) if we have that in Canada, i would order everything online

ETA: technically you shouldn't post about this in the collection forum. try posting it in the clearance bin

I always pay sales tax. I'm in Tennessee and our sales tax is almost 10%. I wish I didn't get charged tax online or I would also order everything online.

Well tax varies from state to state and county to county. If I were to order from Canada I don't pay sales tax, I have no clue why, it's just what the sales people tell me. So it all depends on where the person would have ordered it from and if they did pay tax some may pay 5%, others may be paying 10%, so maybe that's why people's offer prices are lower than what you expected.

Someone mentioned to me that it has to do with whether or not you have a freestanding store in your state/province. If you do, you'll be taxed, if not, you escape!

^thats pry what it is, but thats dumb because I hve a freestanding store in my state but it's 3 hours away... freaking dumb.

I agree. My freestanding store is on the other side of the state, it would be faster to go to a different state! I was told it's a legal thing, if MAC has a store in your state they have to charge tax becuase the own it. If you only have a counter, they don't charge tax becuase macys, nordies, ...ect. own it. I'm not sure if thats correct.

My Manish lipglasses arrived today.
Pink Manish is looooove!
I think Shine Manish will look great with tanned skin

This is me -->

This is me doing my happy dance -->

For my Pink Manish has arrived! I know, it's just a lipglass but I was worried I wouldn't snag and I have so I'm boogy-ing. And it's just so pretty and I think it was look fab over Pomposity.

emeraldjewels · 10-23-2008, 09:57 AM #**2418** (**permalink**)

So I caved, I told myself I wasn't going to get the eye pallet!

But, I took it as a sign that it was still in stock today (pay day) and ordered it.

Naughty Charlotte!!

Shine Manish is so pretty on! I just did one very light coat. But, the Pink Manish is GORGEOUS!!! Get it Kimmy if you can

mufiend · 10-23-2008, 02:53 PM #**2420** (**permalink**)

Oh my goodness, guess what I got in the mail?! Eyes on Manish!!! I had only received Shine Manish in the original shipment out of my shadow, Kiss Manish l/s, Pink Manish l/g order so this was a great surprise! It says "Manish Backorder" on my reciept - any other Canadian Specktra-ettes luck out too?

I had been telling myself that I didn't Need it anyway, but how happy I am now must mean I was fooling myself.

AdlersMommy22 · 10-23-2008, 04:34 PM #**2421** (**permalink**)

whoa i didnt even notice that they completely took manish off the collections list... crazzzzzzzzzzyyyyy

V2LUCKY · 10-23-2008, 09:19 PM #**2422** (**permalink**)

Had my Pink Manish l/g order shipped to my my moms house (my neighbors are bad...that's another story) she brought it over today and I am in LOVE! it is so pretty, still not 100% sure I could pull it off but I will sure as hell try! I'm always drawn to hot pink l/s's or l/g's whenever they are released with new collections but I never buy them cause I feel my lips are too thin to pull off a color that intense same thing with red, I've been dying to wear a red l/s out but I always wipe it off before I even leave my room.
