I had that happening as well a while back. Didn't work for days and all of the sudden it got solved. Quite annoying tho.

The color looks lovely on you!

For lip line issues, I recommend MAC Prep + Prime Lip. It's a lip primer that helps lipsticks go on smoothly, last longer, and not feather. It's not a balm, but i also find it to be soothing on my lips. It is recommended to apply P+P Lip, wait a few minutes for it to get tacky, and then apply lipstick.

  This has converted some of my unwearable lippies to I love them pile.

You quack me up .... I couldn't resist. That looks lovely on you!

I backed it up yesterday. I love it.

Also, Unconventional looks beautiful very lightly highlighted over PT. LOVE PT blush!!!

All I ever cared about was if my lips still looked full - you would chuckle at all the little facial massages and muscle stretches I do  I don't have lines around the edges of my lips (yet), either, so for now, I'm satisfied. I figure no one will ever notice lines in my lips if I'm wearing some crazy colored lipstick anyhow.

At age 63 and 1/3 years so far the only vertical line i have in my lips is one spot where i gave my upper lip a paper cut licking an envelope back in the early 1980s.

OK, self control today...none. Used today as my triple points day at Nordies and picked up SI and NB lippies, PT blush and the e/s quad along with some Chanel goodies. I watched an artist do a makeover today with the quad and PT blush and it was stunning. The eye she did was amazing. She put it on Painterly first and then with the 272 did the purple on the lid, the blue in the crease and the lightest shade on the brow and a bit at the tear duct. Absolutely no problems with these being sheer or chalky. She used a 129 brush for PT blush and it was stunning.

Has anyone else noticed that the fluidlines look a bit different than they used to? Much deeper. Wave Line looks very purple in this collection. I might have to go back and get both.

So the damage for this collection:

e/s quad

both blushes

NI x 2

NB

SI x 2

That's exactly what i got:

-- Nocturnal Instinct -- it's like "My Lips But" more opaque, it's definitely excellent as an everyday lipstick for me -- i'm wearing it today, with a dab of Illamasqua Opulent Intense Gloss (kinda gold w/ pink rainbow iridescence) in the center to warm and brighten it a bit;

-- Perky -- i can wear this alone and i also like this dabbed in the center of NI, but i wanted a warmer look on this cold grey rainy day;

-- Unconventional -- which looks fine on my neutral fair (between 15 & 20) skin - it adds both a hint of color, as well as face brightening.

As far as SI goes, i have Violetta, which is quite close, and which i rarely wear. Now, however, with various additions, such as pencils (Nightmoth or Stone lip pencils or Hi-Def Cyan Chromagraphic pencil) or OCC Lip Tar (i love periwinkle Butch) i can make Violetta bluer or darker or more neutral, so i didn't feel the need for SI.

Even though the only one i got was NI, all the mattenes in this collection were stand-out colors.

That sounds really like a gorgeous combo

Lovely haul, mac_aiken.Enjoy your goodies!

that's how it looks on me too. 

Here's my take on Taste Temptation. I have Magenta lip pencil, Seductive Intent Mattene lipstick and Passionately Tempted blush.

 that look is amazing!!!!

I am loving those lashes!  Which ones are they?

All lipsticks are in stock on MAC's website.

The mattenes are no longer listed as sold out but the "add to bag" button is missing

Same for the Making Pretty lipsticks...

yeah there is no lipsticks. 

strange....

Yeah, I've been checking in every few minutes to see if they add they "add to bag" button but no luck!
