Just keep in mind they're not safe for the eyes.

valla, no fui la unica :sweat:

:haha: by the time I got the email, they were already sold out .

I placed two orders...one right after the other (I decided to get Mangrove after hitting the submit button). Anyway, the second order is still pending even though I used the overnight shipping code. The CS Rep said, "Unfortunately that won't be shipped until tomorrow".:dunno:

Ehh that sucks!! But Atleast we didn't pay for overnight shipping so I'm not complaining. As long as the orders don't get canceled.

Hello ladies, just finished a blog post on shade comparisons for the Proenza lippies. Here are some swatches... Woodrose, 

Pure Zen, Jubilee, Innocence Beware, Freckletone​

Pinkfringe, 

Naughty Saute, Snob, Pink Friday, Pink Plaid​

Mangrove, 

Lady Danger, Sail La Vie, So Chaud, Scarlet Ibis​

I'm an Mac NC50 for reference ​

Mangrove is gorgeous

Thank you so much for this! I just b2m'd for Lady Danger and was worried Mangrove would be too similar. I feel like they're definitely different enough to own both

My order for Ocean City shipped! Now as long as UPS doesn't take my package to my scumbag neighbor's house, I will be a happy camper. Am I the only one who has a neighbor that likes to keep your packages or open them and see if there is anything inside that they like? It makes me SO mad when I have to walk over there and knock on their door to get my packages that were delivered to them by mistake and they hand them to me ripped apart.

I would be very mad about that! Clearly they know that they didn't order anything. I am missing a package now, which the Post Office says was delivered by I didn't get it. It is clothing so I'm wondering if someone decided to keep it. Have you talked to UPS about delivering it to the wrong address?

My order shipped a few minutes after 8 ET. Yay!

i had called earlier as one shipped and one didn't. they rep told me that they do shipping up to 5am eastern time and everything goes out at that time. whatever didn't make it ships the next day. He also said that even on busy launch days as long as your order is placed before 3pm eastern time that it will ship accordingly. HTH

The Bay website sells it but I am not sure if the Nars counters in the stores will have it in stock but it's worth a try. If you're really considering purchasing a Yachiyo... you might want to consider Hakuhodo as it's cheaper (Large Pointed Yachiyo is $48 US) than Nars' version ($62 Cdn) but also high quality.

Thank you so much! I really appreciate you letting me know! I think that I'm going to buy both the RT and order the Yachiyo it's just such a beautiful brush I've always been interested in one but I had never considered checking the Bay. The shipping is kind of expensive from the Bay but I think I'm just spoiled from free shipping codes lol

Okay I caved and got Mangrove after these swatches (also picked up Lip Blossom from the perm line....) They always get me with that free overnight shipping!

Have you talked to UPS about delivering it to the wrong address?

Yes I've spent lots of time being put on hold to try to clear it up and end up getting nowhere. We always have a different UPS guy and I'm guessing they only glance at the address label and take it to the first house they see that looks right which is 3300 (neighbor) instead of 3330 (mine).

Thanks for the swatches!!! Very helpful. I'm really happy I bought Mangrove now. It seems closer to Scarlet Ibis here (which I never wear) but...still . Do you happen to have Rasberry Swirl to compare against PinkFringe?

 

[NYCBeautyJunkie]

My blushes have shipped!

 

[BeautyBorn]

I suspect the Monday launch has thrown a lot of folks off this release.

 

[Lipstickdiva420]

I cant believe the lippies are still in stock...

I can the lippies are $22

 

[erine1881]

Yup.

Right!

You'll love it!

I'm hoping and betting I will! I only got into orange blushes with the AAO collection. Honey Jasmine became one of my favorite blushes, and I don't have many other orange ones, unless you count MAC's Melba. So it was worth the splurge!! But I don't have to tell you some splurges are worth it

Agreed! I hate skipper's remorse. I probably hesitated for a full 5 minutes before I realized I was being silly and that for a blush I've had my heart set on for weeks and weeks, it was worth paying full price. Most people have to pay full price every time they buy from MAC, so who am I to complain I don't get a discount on this one item I want, you know? Can't wait to get it. I know it will be just lovely!!

So..... are we done now for a while? Like a couple weeks off before there's a new collection? I can sleep at night?

LOL you are silly girl!
