You're all making me want Pink Fridge...

 

[allthingsglam]

I have Black Ice from the original release, gosh I think it was the November one from 2013 or soemthing, and I like it.  Nothing special, it is a slightly blue based black and I don't get any extra wear time from PLW versus a regular kohl or pearlglide but it is a good basic black and in this special packaging, well, why not?

Thanks I'm going to pass on it but that black polish I'm about to place a order lol the nude polish is not getting great reviews

I got the same email from MAC. Don't know if I should ask for a refund or wait till next week. I dont know if Nordstrom will send me OC since its backordered...

OMG - Pinkrfringe is just beyond gorgeous on! I backed that beauty up right away. It came with a small slice in it. weird

Everything is AWESOMELY BEAUTIFUL




OMGWTFBBQ!

I went to my local stand-alone MAC this AM and got one of each blush and Woodrose. Plus I picked up a few other things from the perm range that had been on my wish list. There was only one other person there for this collection when i went in. Usually there are 2 or 3 other people.

I just bought Sweet Experience from Playland and i replaced my missing Flamingo last week. I really don't need another peachy-pink / pinky-peach. But this looks beautiful. Now i'm thinking of calling and seeing if they'll hold a Pinkfringe for me for a couple hours...

 

[lipstickaddict]

Let me know what you think!!!

Well I have to say, Pink fridge is GORGEOUS! So beautiful in fact, that I bought 2!

Just wore it out for a walk with the dogs----LOVE IT!!!!!

Mangrove is equally divine! I ordered that baby online and am still waiting to give it a go and see if I need a bu (LOL!). Did someone mention lipsticks anonymous, because between Proenza, Playland and By Request, I am in lipstick trouble......or lipstick heaven. I think I need more lips!

On a side note, my mac store did not have the blushes either, so it looks like there are some of the same issues with production in Canada. A lot of people will be sad to get to their Mac counter today to find that they cannot get their hands on them (and of course we don't have Nordstrom).

"crackhead itchies"!! LOVE it!

Just adding myself to the list of people who received the wrong blush (ordered SB/received OC). I went to the store today and just purchased the correct one. Not sure yet what I'll do about the refund or having them ship the correct one. I figure IF they get more stock, hey I'll have a BU!

I explained to the 2 MAs working what had happened to us. They hadn't heard about it and couldn't believe it. Like most of you, I'm just incredibly saddened and disappointed in MAC with all these fiascos. I was feeling nostalgic and found myself looking through old color story threads last night. I really miss the old MAC (collections/CS/reliability)! I'm not saying they were perfect back then, but boy do I miss the good ol' days!!

They really are the dumbest compacts to open imo...especially if you have nails

I just used the orange blush up the cheekbone & then added just a bit of the pink blush on the apples & slightly back. It makes a really pretty almost rosey tangerine shade. Pinkfringe on the lips

I don't know what it is about Pinkfringe, but I absolutely love it on. I like using it a bit sheerer.

Thank you for sharing all these pretty combos, Elegant

Thanks dear...that is just too sweet.

Maybe HG & I should have a blog & call it Old Bag Blog

That would be fabulous

I knew you'd like Pinkfringe. I feel the same way. It's so pretty and feminine. And I have so many lipsticks, I could go a long time without wearing the same one twice. It's my only vice (probably, anyway), so I keep buying

Agreed! It took me a couple of seconds of fumbling around to get it open---serious blonde moment. Thought it would be a lot easier like Dior or something!

Thanks for your thoughts, descriptions and wonderful makeup tips my friend!

Thanks for this info! I just got off the phone with MAC. I requested a refund. The CS person said she put in a request for one and told me to expect a confirmation email within 24 hours and the money to be put back into my paypal account in 2-3 business days. I get to keep Sunset beach too so I'll be trying it on today. After I receive OC from Nordstrom next week, I think I'll be done with MAC for awhile :/

LOL i cant be until alluring aquatic! THEN i am done. i picked out two lipsticks, i am going to use the refund towards them.

 

[Lisianthus]

I hope this means that they're firing up the production line and cranking out more blush and not diverting stock meant for international release in Europe/Asia to fix this cock up. If the blushes don't get released in internationally, we'll know it may be because of Proenzagate!
