Ok, after playing with Red Racer for a bit I can definitely say it's a keeper. Hubster doesn't give me that why are you wearing red because I hate it look, like he does with Runaway Red. Cannot wait to get my hands on Cult of Cherry....that should look really hot. For now I'll settle with Send Me Sailing.

Is that ls in your new picture?? It looks amazing. Red lips are so classic.

I have seen it but they werent too disrespectful. Mac guy was not one of em. he doesnt insult or be rude. its ok to have ppl who see themselves as "better" in an aspect of life, i dont have a problem with that unless they r in my face. i think mac guy has experienced make up more than most of us and i respect his opinion. he has never contradicted me in a bad way or said anything mean that i know of. he didnt trigger that reaction.


on the other hand i totally agree that this is part of my daily life. i LOVE it here
I just wanted to say that I've never got the impression that anyone thought they were better then anyone on here. Since I've been here everyone has been nothing but supportive and amazing. And actually really acceptive of others opinions, so I dont know where that came from. You guys are one of the highlights of my day. I love to come to a place where others share my obsession. We all share our lives on here not just makeup. To me its more then a makeup board, we all support each other here.
I love coming here everyday and appriciate you all!

I am really really close to skipping this collection all together. To be honest money is really really tight right now. It's getting so bad my husband has to get a second job, and he owns his own business! I think I need to go on a no-buy until Heavanly Creature. I'm turing 30 in July so am def treating myself with that collection. I hope the makeup bags stay around for a while, cause I still want those!

Everyone that has posted pics you look so amazing! Makes me smile to see you looking so lovely with your hauls.

[quote name="XxMoOmOoxX" url="/t/179432/mac-hey-sailor-summer-2012- I got out of the cycle for a while [/QUOTE] Have they ever stopped and thought that you were buying it for friends & family as gifts? You could also be a freelance makeup artist and need all that makeup for work. If not, you could just be a hard core makeup junkie and a collector. Also, you could be a tourist and wanted to stock up since CCOs are not available in other countries. :) [/quote] I went twice & both times they were questioning me left and right. The first time I was the only customer in there & I must have spent over an hour & 20 min. Looking at stuff for them to finally say I couldn't spend $300 or buy 3 of the same products...not 3 of the same colors but 3 of the same products. I understand rules but it happens somehow & I don't think the elderly employees at the Dawsonville, GA outlet CCO are going to break the system of reselling for double the price on eBay & they certainly don't have to make me out to feel like a criminal b/c of course when I was checking out there were a few people in there. Whom were not asked any such ?s about their intentions with the make up! Some people get off on power & it's not a pretty sight. I mean really, I collect make up. I give it to my nieces & sister who never gets a second to herself. What's wrong with that? I think I'm blackballed in the computer out there- no joke! Like I said I felt like shoving it all off the counter with some fowl mouth choice words but I tried to play onto their nice side of which they have NONE. I mean, truth is I've had serious health issues for quite a while now & if buying 50 tubes of discontinued ES EL LS that I missed b/c I didn't know my ass from my elbow is going to make me 1. Get out of the house & 2. Let me get my mind off my real shitty situation & 3. While playing with it forget about what's really going on with me WTF is wrong with that??? NOTHING! I had the money, it's not like my card was declined or I was trying to get them to bend the rules. Once I knew what the rules were, I obligated by putting the stuff up in the right place instead of saying "why didn't u tell me this an hour ago"? Arrrrrrrrrrr! I could have been home already since that place is an hour away from my house. Okay. Enough. Cool the jets. Just a few little tips from ur CCO shopper. But I did find some goodies! Some of my favorites are VV Sweetjoy ES & Gesina LS from Marcel Wanders 1 & For Effect & Morning Frost PP.

wow... look what happens when i disappear for a few days :( i'm pretty saddened by some members comments. nobody is better than anybody here - no matter what you do for a living. we're all here because we love makeup and beauty products and like to share our opinions. if you can't play nice then it's time to go quite frankly.

i'm not piarpreet either lol but I wear with Prince Noir by lining and coloring my lips in with a red lipliner. When I wear prince noir it looks more purplish but i want the red to be more apparent so thats why. I guess its not a matching l/l but just throwing that idea out there just in case you were interested lol

Jaunty is sold out on the MAC site. Not too shocking considering its versatility being a neutral shade. I'm glad I got a BU! Still kicking myself for not getting a BU of Creamy Bisque from MMO and I'm almost to pan on that one. 
I just backed up creamy bisque at my CCO two weeks ago. You should call around and see if it's available near you.

I also prefer this one to Surf Baby:) I hope we get some interesting pigments soon. I would like some really bright colours. They have had some brights with Fall Colour, but all were repromotes:(
I also agree with both of you that this collection hasn't been overhyped. I don't think it has more hype than Shop/Cook or Iris Apfel. I personally really like this collection and i agree that people shouldn't buy things because others say it's amazing. Everybody has a different taste and likes different product. I just really like to read what other people are enjoying of this collection and why they think those products are nice. When people talk that way about a product they love it isn't necessarily meant to create hype, it's meant to share the love we all have for makeup!
yeah i barely bought anything from surf baby!

guys i have really taken to using crew as a blush on my cheeks! oh my word! it really creates such a pretty soft glow. and then i have been using the sh brush (whats the number again?!) to apply lightscapade msf all over my cheek area too! an awesome combo when you layer these babies up!! and never before have i applied so much lightscapade!
