I thought so too, but I just looked it up and it says it ends on Holy Thursday (today).

How much of a must-have is Pink Poodle? I have GAT, Milan Mode, and Pleasure Bomb, so I'm not exactly lacking fuchsias.
I'm trying to decide between PP and Relentlessy Red, Heroine, and CB96, all of which are completely different from each other.

Maybe it's just me, but I had zero interest in PP. Sure it's pretty, but to me it's nothing unique/special. I have Heroine, which is pretty but permanent now and I rarely use it. And if you missed out on Pink Pigeon that's being made permanent so you have that to choose from too soon.
I'll insert a pic of me wearing Heroine as if I remember from a diff. thread you're similar to my skin tone to see if it helps with your decision.

Personally I really love PP, but I didn't really have any similar colors. I will say though I think it's really flattering on a lot of people though.

Heroine does look gorgeous on you. I'm now probably more interested in that the Pink Poodle. The latter is still available on the website, and it caught my eye because of the free shipping this weekend. I've had a crap day - the kitchen sink blocking completely is really not what I wanted before the Easter weekend - and I was thinking about consoling myself with a new lipstick, but I can't make up my mind which one.

No problem! Oh god, I bet you were upset - at least now you should be able to replace it! I didn't pick up PiPi or PaPa when they came out, just couldn't be bothered with the fight for them.
Thank you! Oh I didn't know about free shipping - and I have to be a good girl and not take advantage of it as I just bought a foundation from feelunique as they had 15% off.
Sorry to hear you've had a crap day - if it makes you feel any better today has been the day from hell for me, not one thing has gone right! Typical, right? I'd go with your gut on the lipstick though. It's what I usually do if I'm unsure.
Thank you.

I would make a solid case for RR, because it is absolutely gorgeous, but again, it's permanent and you could B2M for it another time. I do love Pink Poodle though, and I had no idea how much I would love it until I got it! Because it's a glaze, it can really be built up or sheered out. It's really a wearable fuchsia with retro flare and a lot of people are crazy over it --hence the reason it sold out right away. It is really gorgeous in person. Too bad you can't go and try them all on! Good luck deciding!

In the UK it's still in stock, it's the only one to not sell out!

LOL! It sold out quite quickly in the US and has since been re-stocked. It didn't sell out in Canada I don't think though.
Interesting how different things sell out in different countries!

Completely agree! I really thought it'd be the first to sell out but if I remember correctly it was Glam first, then Hoop.

For ages, I thought I'd dropped Pink Pigeon down the back of a bookcase, so I was really upset when I moved and it wasn't anywhere to be seen. I'm lucky living so close to a MAC counter. I've never had to struggle to get a lipstick that I've wanted, as long as I've been prepared to make sure I'm in town in the morning on release day - even for RiRi stuff. I missed the Marilyn Monroe stuff, but I was away that weekend, so it doesn't count. Mind you, losing Pink Pigeon gave me an excuse to buy CYY. I'm glad that Pink Pigeon seems to be coming back, though. When I bought Pink Pigeon and Party Parrot, they were the brightest lipsticks I'd ever bought, and I wasn't sure I could wear them (especially the latter), but now I'm obsessed with brights. It's funny how my ideas of what colours I can carry off have changed so much.
I got an email from MAC this morning with the code EASTER for free shipping.
Some days are just designed to make you wish you'd rolled over and gone back to sleep!

That's a tough decision! I did get Pink Poodle and I LOVE it! But I haven't backed it up because I know there are so many similar ones. I have GAT, Full Fuschia, Show Orchid, Lickable, and Milan Mode. I'm a sucker for fuschias, obviously. I'm not too crazy about Relentlessly Red, but I do love Heroine and CB96. It all depends on what kind of look you want. CB96 is a frost and lighter than the rest, Heroine bright and beautiful. Pink Poodle is the only LE one. Whatever you choose, it sounds like you could use something yo brighten your day. I hope that your sink gets fixed quickly and cheaply!

Sorry to go off topic but your hair cut is gorgeous. If you don't mind, I may show this picture to the hairdresser when I get my hair cut.Maybe it's just me, but I had zero interest in PP. Sure it's pretty, but to me it's nothing unique/special. I have Heroine, which is pretty but permanent now and I rarely use it. And if you missed out on Pink Pigeon that's being made permanent so you have that to choose from too soon.

I ended up getting Glam... I hadn't intended to, but I was already ordering Smoked Purple and Sin is out of stock so this ended up in my cart somehow.
