I'll be receiving Rocker soon. I don't wear vampy reds but ended up buying it anyway. It looks great on everybody who posted a picture so I think I can pull it off! I also wanted Moth Brown but the swatches of the new Moth Brown look so blaah compared to the older version. I need more swatches to decide whether I should buy it when BR is released in Holland.

Nooooooooooooooo! Not scheduled to arrive until Wednesday...my fault for not ordering until it was restocked! I was stalking the site with y'all, I don't know why I lagged, haha.

Yeah it's been disabled for over a week now. There are all kinds of rumors flying around about what happened.

They all look very pretty on you! They look nicely pigmented. I'm glad I ordered Moxie.My UPS man came at 12:30! This is a record time, since usually he'll come anywhere between 3:00-8:00 on any given day. Yeah! I swooped right in, picked up the black box from my porch and cracked that baby open!
I haven't tried them on because I don't want to get the sicky germs - I used rubbing alcohol before applying onto my arm for swatches - then I sprayed them with alcohol mist when I was done lol, I'm germaphobe for sure!
I love all three! Rocker has those gorgeous sparkles that catch in the light and man oh man is CYY BRIGHT! I can't imagine the older version that was MORE neon! Moxie seems to show up similarly in the tube as on my arm, it's definitely a reddened pink, almost what I wish Fire Sign would be!
Feel better soon, duckrodeo!
Whaat? lol
Indeed, the stock volume differences were more obvious with this collection. Makes me nervous for future collections

Hi everyone! I'm a long time lurker, first time poster. I ordered all 3 of the shadows. I'm very curious to know what other e/s people are gonna put them with. Am I crazy for seeing a look with MB and Guacamole together? I hope people post some pics of the looks they put together so I can be inspired.

What's up with MAC not giving people Moxie? I explained on here that the same thing happened to my friend.....

That is good news. I hate saying this cus I am sure lots of people do but I spent summers in Montreal back in 1989 &1990 which is before MAC opened their first US store. I used to go down to the Bay with $10 and buy a lipstick every few weeks. Nail polish and eyeshadows as well. I think of $15 as a lot for their lipsticks which is just silly but I seem to recall them being about 8 CAN back then. Still less than Chanel or YSL or other stuff I buy but my head is stuck in those days 
I am astounded by the mark-up for Canadians! I stepped away from MU oh 15 yrs ago except for a every once in a while hankering for something so it isn't like I am a true blue mac fanatic but they always held a soft spot in my heart and I always think of them as a Canadian company. I actually think they use that as a marketing thing~ not overtly but still there: that individualism and small company attitude when really it is part of a huge conglomerate. Every time I see stuff like oh they are a small company that can't handle the mad influx of orders or ship boxes with lipstick in it I kinda roll my eyes. Sorry EL juggles like a half dozen, if not more, companies with counters the world over. BTW Le Bay's MAC counter was the largest one in the store, larger than some free standing stores I have been in [slight exaggeration] so really Canadians getting the short shrift is just so wrong.

Yep, you're right! I should have looked more into it instead of being a baby and breaking down into a hissy fit. Lol!No worries! Sometimes it's hard to tell the context of what's written on the internet when you don't know the person or can't see facial expressions and body language. Lol, I admit I was really confused when I first read your original post and had a "What you talkin' 'bout Willis" moment. I'm not a troll and wouldn't do anything to disrupt the great community here. But given the recent drama that happened last night, I can understand being a little on edge. It's cool and I hope you continue to contribute and share your love of makeup!
But yay! I'm really happy to be apart of the community. It's been amazing being here and all of you wonderful ladies are the reason that I was able to get my hands on the BR lippies. If I wouldn't have been on the forum that night, I would have totally missed out. Woot!

Hey ladies, I finally was able to catch up on the thread and it looks like I'll have more time to be on here since I got SHINGLES! uggghhh so upset about it and in extreme pain adult chicken pox sucks! Anyways I decided to not purchase any of the shadows and I'm not a fan of l/g so I passed on those as well. I was able to get a Moxie of my own from an awesome person on here she shipped it Saturday and I got it this afternoon, so she is definitely the best. So after reading and looking at the pics of the Inglot eye shadows I am even more intrigued I'm going home to NJ at the end of the month and I am definitely going to their store and picking up my own 10 palette I can't wait.
On another note, I wanted to ask if any of you ladies happen to have a Quick Sizzle that you might be thinking bout selling it I would love to get my hands on one I do not trust ebay and its authenticity issues so I figured I try and see if anyone has it here.

OMGOODNESS, shingles! I know that must be so painful. I'm so sorry!
I'm sitting here with a blood clot in my leg and one in my ankle so I'm not having the best of times either. (((HUGS)))

Those shingles commercials make me cringe! I didn't get chicken pox until I was 20-thanks to my nephews and that was awful!
Jeeze how you both get better soon!
