   i know thats why im asking her. also carbon has such a bad reputation hahaha 
I LOVE carbon! I could use carbon every day! I dunno why everyone hates it so much. I love the fact that this one is a large carbon, and if i didn't already have a large one as a BU, I'd be getting this one

Psha, carbon is the best thing I've used for tightlining. Super natural and it stays all day. Other shadows I've used melt off down my face and gels and pencils tend to be so dark and harsh, they don't look 100% natural.

I like Carbon too. It's great to darken e/s.

Any codes for 2 day or overnight shipping? Thanks.


Edit - Okay I may just add Carbon. I've recently become a black shadow convert.

Over lunch I ordered Shell Pearl, all of the lippies, and all of the eyeshadows except carbon. From that my mum and sister are getting a lipstick and shadow, but I haven't decided on which colours since neither of them could be moe specific that just saying "anything with a snake on it".

Me! I am trying not to buy plumful. I was going to but I just have sooooo many to use up that I should really skip colors that are not LE. I might have bought it if the tube was LE but... I dunno.
Wait and B2M for it.
Thank you ladies, glad to know I'm not alone. I've had Plumful for a long time & when I looked at it the other day it was all deformed, it looks like it had a snake design that went all wrong...hopefully this will inspire MAC to do more imprints on Lippies in the future. Can someone tell me why SP is being compared to the AG's powders, I thought those are going to be Pearlmattes? Am I right? Wrong? TIA!

Long story, but they don't compare at all.

Shoot...now I'm having Skipper's Remorse on not getting Carbon, believe it or not I'm the only one who does not have this! Do y'all think this is going to sellout quickly? I can't have another box or package come to my house... If anyone has or can get a Kid or Samoa Silk (PRO Pan preferred, but not necessary) please PM me!

Carbon is permanent so you can get it anytime. Also, I don't see this collection selling out quickly but I think that Shell Pearl BP will be the first to be sold out.

I used a posted link on Specktra to place my order for Aztec Brick, Altered State and Once upon a Time. The Mac customer service rep couldn't locate the items as they were not showing up for her. I changed and adjusted my check out cart and she was able to see and proceed with the order. Thks everyone, five to seven business days confirmed but sooner I kno

I used both my link from the email & my bookmark to MAC's site but the site was so messed up. Even once my page was letting me add things in my cart the phone rep could not find the collection! Crazy. If it's bad for release it will be a madhouse for AGs...

I don't have Carbon either, so you aren't alone. I do have Dark Dare EDES and a few black ones from UD so I think that's probably enough LOL. Plus enough dark gray eyeshadows to last until the next ice age.....

I keep wanting to get Altered State but it's in some old holiday palettes I've been wanting and can get on the cheap. I guess it's just SP for me.

Thanks Glam Queen, I know it's perm, but it won't have the snake on it. LOL. I'm going to be own voice of reason here...I'll wait to get Carbon in a pan, so it will fit in my palettes. I'll most likely use it more often if I put it in my pan that holds all my favorites & go tos for basic ESs. There, I just saved myself some $...
