I'm NC25, although I feel like its a tad too dark/yellow for me right now,  and I wear mine like an under eye powder and really anything else that I want brightened. I use my Sheer Pressed Powder everywhere else. I feel like it brightens my skin in the places I want brightened. I bet as it gets cooler and I get more pale I will probably start using it all over a little more often.

I left home for a convention with family [sci-fi/fantasy] friday morning and there were so many msgs since then!  I am so happy everybody is getting their goodies and enjoying them.  I missed out on a CP chance for BP BU due to phone for internet and sketchy reception but I am not sad at all.  I have one on its way and it is pure hype making me feel must have moar moar moar.  Anyway happy monday everybody.  Be beautiful ~~ Inside & Out

Lol, I don't want my lipsticks to be lonely. I also want them to go forth and multiply so I won't have to buy more.

I compared Beet, Cherry and Redd lip pencils to my NYX lip pencils.

 

MAC Beet = no match in my stash

NYX Plum is a lot darker than Beet. NYX Burgundy isn't pink enough. NYX Mahogany seems too brown. These are the colors that came somewhat close to Beet, but they're still off.

 

MAC Cherry = NYX Hot Red comes very close

 

MAC Redd = no match in my stash

NYX Orange matches in brightness, but it's orange and not red. Keep in mind, NYX Hot Red is my only red NYX lip pencil. I plan to purchase more now that I have more red lipsticks.

 

 

P.S. Scarlet Ibis + NYX Orange makes a nice, really bright orange-red lip look.

Thanks for this! I actually own Hot Red. I already had Beet from a time when I had my makeup done which was lucky!

 

I called UPS on Saturday about the "correct street number needed" on my tracking information and it turns out they had the right street number all along so I don't know what the issue was. They said they'd deliver it today but I just checked and it says they need a correct street number AGAIN. I am so frustrated. I guess I will have to take my lunch break to go pick it up tomorrow. I just want my Pure Zen!!!

Happy to help.

 

The same thing happened to me a couple of months ago with UPS. They had the correct address, but I still got the "correct street number needed" message. The agent I spoke to just made a new label and stuck it onto the box. It was delivered fine after that. I recall that it took several hours for it to update on my tracking info after speaking with the agent.

I can't believe they've restocked it! I hope people won't miss it!!

 

If they restock in the UK I would get eyeshadows and blushes that I didn't get the first time, but I don't think they will restock here..

I'm so happy! I was finally able to order Love Goddess! After all the drama I went through trying to get my hands on it previously, having another chance to order it feels fantastic. I never got the chance to order anything during a Mac restock before, because they usually always happen when I'm working. This is a makeup blessing ^__^ I hope all you ladies are also getting the chance to get something you may have missed out on previously! :D
