Oh dear. T hates FE too.
With all the negative reviews I'm starting to regret buying it. I wish I'd got TD&H EDES instead.

I really like FE on the lower lash line. Give it a try. I also think it looks good on T's lower lash line. It's a very unusual color.
i agree with feminine edge, its so unique! im going to pair it with steely blue greys and see how it popsI picked up everything today. For anyone still wondering about Small vanity... Get it! It doesnt swatch as strong as it looks in pictures. It's actually pretty soft and buildable. The only thing im really REALLY disappointed on is innocence. The finish of this is terrible. It's a frost but not ANGEL type of frost. The frost is not flattering and there's glitter. The glitter makes the application uneven and if you dry lips... It's horrid. I always have dry lips! -__- I BU'ed natural Flirt. That one is a gem! It's really lovely. A lot better in person. Same goes for Stolen Moment and Round Midnight.

WOG and Albatross are not similar at all.I tried to swatch them side by side:
Sorry for the poor quality but I hope that it helps anyway....

Had that happen with a single order of Lightscapade. >_< Not a happy camper about that are I ordered right away as well. MAC does oversell their stock online.
My MAC account still says pending so I'm not sure what has shipped either. lol

I rushed from work last night in bad weather conditions to pick of Flight of Fancy Lipglass at Macy's (my pre-order will be picked up at Nordies first thing tomorrow morning). I came to work this morning only to find that one of my nice co-workers had bought FOF for me as well yesterday. Now I have a back-up when I am trying to cut down my ever expanding lipgloss stash. I feel bad returning it when so people are missing out on items they really do want. I need to understand how CP actually works. I do think that I have a few changes to make to my original order e.g.
I have decided that I don't want Deliciously Demure anymore. It did not compliment my skintone (looked a bit pasty and off)
I will definitely add Round Midnight, Divine Blue, Stolen Moment to my Nordies order (deliberating over after swatching them again last night)
I now only want Mystery E/L (IMO the ones from Apres Chic seem to be a bit more appealing, vibrant and best of all are permanent)
I will add WOG EDSF (the triplets will be reunited)........thanks for enabling me CartoonChic!!!!!
I don't think I "need" the Smoky and Warm Eyeshadow Palettes...........at least for now
Still not convinced about Small Vanity Blush as yet....will be ok if I miss out, swatched it on my hand last night but need to see it on my face IRL tomorrow
The MUA at Macy's told me that if items are sold out at Nordstrom's 2moro she will be in at 11am so I can always come back to her again
(nothing was sold out at my local Macy's counters)
I am so anticipating picking up my RTP x 2 and SM x 2 EDES and IS lipglosses x 2..................then I am completely absolutely finally done!!!!!

I also think it looks good, but hey, people have different ideas of what looks good and what doesn't.I really like FE on the lower lash line. Give it a try. I also think it looks good on T's lower lash line. It's a very unusual color.
Tropical Mist also received a lot of trashing from the blogosphere but that hasn't stopped me loving it

Lol, Whisper of Guilt is very pretty and I'm going to get a BU.
With CPs (Custom Purchase), you basically buy an item for someone, they pay you for it then you mail it to them.

No problem! Matching lip liners is fun to me. It's like playing with colored pencils. Please post what you decide to get. I also updated my signature because of you and Medgal.You are so awesome!Thank you so much for your detailed breakdown. I will check all those out this weekend.

I looked at everything yesterday and I loved 2 shadows, Ready to Party and A Natural Flirt for how they look on my skin. I loved the duochrome effect they have on my skin; and how similar they look to perm shadows Vellum (Ready to Party) and Mortf (A Natural Flirt). Similar to colors I have, but I love the EDES formula so I am happy!
I am on the fence about Superb, afraid its going to look too shiny in photos...

Wow, it is almost a full time job to keep up with this thread!
Yes, my thoughts exactly. Shadowly Lady is in the set I like the most and I ain't buying that one again, its a bish to work with!

Picked up my order. TDH is nice, but my nordies was out of stock. Not sure I want to search for it.
Round MIdnight is pretty, but not a must have if you have Rich Core.
Now Glamourdaze?!?!?! SUCKS on me. IT was very blah. It turned out plummy mauve, and did nothing for my face. Kinda dragged my color down. Must be the brown in it. I was not disappointed they were sold out. I can easily dupe this color. Oh and my lips are really pigmented. THey are pretty much PINK.
Now the purple in the Chanel holiday collex?!?!?! ROCKS! I wanted to buy Nightmoth, but they didn't have it in stock.
