I have really pigmented lips, basically red. It did seem to have more brown on me than Temptaia. Not in a bad way though. I plan on using it and blotting to mute the brown out a bit.  :D 

EDITED: I just tried it on again it did seem a little brown next to my skin. I'm very pale.  BUT... Its very VERY flattering.  I wanted to tone it down a bit so i used Underage lipglass. That made it perfect! Just like what I wanted.   Did you order it?  If not, it would look so pretty on you!

The male mua tells me they didn't pull my items but ended up finding my preorder form in a messy binder along w other orders, he told me they weren't sold out and was going to get items, well apparently they sold out of small vanity and ready to party so he called the Mac store they had none then he ordered online.... So I don't think I've lived happily ever after since I didn't get all my stuff, and hopefully I get those two items.... Grrrr if I would of known they didn't set aside things I would of ordered online in the first place.
Lol and thanks CartoonChic for being there for me and listening to my vents during my unhappy sale story....
Oh and kimibos I love ur haircut too!

Whoa.  Talk about a rug being pulled out!  I hope you get your stuff

I ordered 4 items from PRO when it went up on the regular site.  Three of the items were backordered and I've gotten one box, one item per day.  Seems wasteful?

I'll also get one GD package from MAC and one from Nordstrom tomorrow, and hopefully a final from Nordstrom next week...huge sigh, flops in chair !

The site hasn't updated my order though. I'll probably get a notification that it has ship tomorrow from MAC. 

Yay that's good :)  I got a notice from FedEx as well.  Phew! 

I'm really miffed at Belk.  I'm trying to order Impossibly Sweet from them and their stupid system isn't letting me check out for no reason.  I called and basically got an "i dunno".

If your Macy's counter still has the lipglass in stock, I would like to CP one from you.

I know and should have ordered it yesterday on Nordstrom's website when I had the chance.

I've probably missed it somewhere in this thread, but when is this collection supposed to launch in the UK? I've been eyeing up what I want on eBay because I'm sick of waiting  but I'm not willing to pay extra lol

I ordered my stuff (Outrageously Fun and Innocence) on Tuesday about 5 or 10 minutes after it went online, and I JUST received the shipping notification tonight. Outrageously Fun was the only lipstick on the shipping notification, and when I called they said "Innocence must have been sold out when they processed your order". I thought that was bizarre since I ordered it basically immediately after it was available online. I hope the same thing doesn't happen to you

I am trying so hard to resist, how can you skip all those lovely taupe and greenish browns?  I feel this swatches are sealing my fate.

The benifit of Yung Rapunxel is that you can build up its intensity since it applies sheer. Lol, I'm no help! I'm glad to have both because I can apply them differently, but I don't feel the need to BU either one since I do have both.

Is Dramatic Encounter much more red than YR??? or is it more of a purple?????  I am hoping the latter

I hope it looks much more forest green than her swatches!  Mine is still in transit so I cannot confirm.  The old swatches make me wanna pull a Gracie90 and go back for more, maybe get Raven and Orpheus as well.  If there is anything left after payday, I think I will go and haul again, and maybe add the Evening Grey EDES as well, if there are any left at that point.

This is an easy skip, it looks so similar to Stunner, I don't need it.  And that is coming from a blushaholic.

Really trying hard not to go back for this one--somebody talk me down, tell me the finish sucks or is too shiney, something!

YSL mascara are pretty nice.  Lengthening not so much, but good volume, no flaking or smearing.  Their water proof formula is nice, brush is very useful, and LOVE the color range--check out the burgundy one!!!

What do you normally use to line with Rebel? I typically use Currant.

What does CP mean? do you mean buy? and you pay me? I can do it for you if they still have the two left

so originally i received feminine edge f/l, little black bow f/l today in the mail, HOWEVER after seeing Temptalia's blush swatches I QUICKLY RAN to my nearest Mac and grabbed im the one & easy manner blush. Im done with this collection. NEEEEEXT collection please 

It's on bloomingdales too I don't know if I should get it now or wait till tomorrow?By the way the skin finishes are f****** pretty excuse my language, but that's how much I love them lol.

I just picked up Superb & Small Vanity in-store. I went thinking I was gonna get WoG but it ended up looking too light & ashy on my skin. Superb looks much better.

I love how SV looks on my skin. I didn't like ITO, it was too chalky. I didn't swatch the other blush.

I wasn't completely wowed with any of the kits.

With the exception of Raven e/l, I think I'm done with this collection.

Thats what im thinking lol I ordered the Rose set to and they wont let me pick up until the Trend show on 11/17 , Nordstroms said thats when they are releasing the sets? idk.............

I used Beet with it first because I saw someone else do so and it looked gorgeous but it just pulled too pink, the time after I didn't wear any with it but it was still too pink.  Should I line and fill in with the lipliner and then lipstick or just line & lipstick?  I don't have Currant and atm can't afford to get it if I'm buying from GD :(

Yes, that was the pick up order I placed with Nordstrom on Monday. It was ready Tuesday, but I wasn't able to make it to the store until today. I got Glamourdaze x2 and Innocence. I had an Outrageously Fun BU in that order, but it was canceled because it wasn't in stock at the store. I am so happy to finally have my mitts on Glamourdaze. It's such a pretty, effortless shade on me. kimibos was spot on with her description. It's just like Offshoot except Offshoot is a bit lighter. I barely see the difference swatched on my hand and there's no difference on the lips. I'm still happy about that because I just love the color so much. I don't mind having additional BUs for this shade.

Now Innocence on the other hand, that's a completely different story. It looks awful on me. Just pure ewww. The Frost finish makes it worse. My lips look like Tyrone Biggums after he smoked cracked, ate some powdered donuts and then smoked crack again. I must've been smoking something myself to think that this color would work on me.

I'm going to return Innocence to get my Outrageously Fun BU. The money's already spent, so it's not costing me any additional funds to get it. I also swatched Round Midnightand will be buying it, too. It swatched so much better than when I was at the event. At the event it seemed more brown, but this time I could see the purple. That means I would've gotten all of the EDES from this collection. I'm done with this collection after that! Wait, I think I still want a Whisper of Guilt BU. OK, I'm really done after that.

I use Currant too! I love it with Rebel, my fav lip+liner combo

I have not heard very many comments about the Primped out Lip Look Bag in Luxurious Pink. Any thoughts? I bought it today randomly and wanted to hear some opinions if anyone had any.
 

Here is my Glamour Daze haul! I picked up the Hanging Traveling Bag, Glamourdaze, Outrageously Fun, Whisper of Guilt, Small Vanity and Easy Manner.

I originally only wanted the two blushes...then I got the skin finish, and after seeing Temptalia's swatch of Glamourdaze I added that to my list. THEN, at MAC I bought the 130 brush and Outrageously Fun on impulse. Ughh, a $40 dollar collection quickly turned into a $200 dollar one. 

Ordered IS l/g on Bloomies since Belk refuses to get my shipping address right.  But as I was checking out it said that they need to confirm the availability.  I kinda doubt I'm going to get it

Thinking about getting  bu for of too the color is unique to me.
