My goodies just arrived and Good Kisser is PERFECTION! Everything I was hoping it to be! SO SO GLAD I BOUGHT IT!

Haven't tried the blushes out yet, but they look darker in the pan than I was expecting---which is a good thing for Fun Ending. YAY!

I'm really happy with A Novel Romance Quad.
All shadows are pigmented and smooth, no bad surprises.

My Fantasy, Fall In Lust, Dance In The Dark, Rising Passions



Fall In Lust is my favorite, so pigmented and rich in color. My Fantasy needed a little more layering to show up completely opaque; Dance In The Dark was a tiny bit dry, but no big deal. Rising Passions was more dry as well, plus the glitter kind of blends away, just like Satin Finishes tend to do, even though this one is a Velvet.
Wow. Fall in lust was just gorgeous. If that ever comes out as a single, I'm buying it

How are you ordering from the UK? Nordstrom have changed their policy and only allow payments with a US credit card billing address....very disappointing for alot of us not in the US...
Weird then Hun as I only ordered something from nords last week chik Them and mac and macys and sephora I order from No problems I think if there was a problem with the payment they would of wrote a email to me by now don't you think ???? As with dillards omg I tried to order something about three months ago and straight away my payments wernt going through actually it went through then a hour or less they wrote to say my payment hadn't gone through because of non us billing addy I don't think nords is like that And if it is I not had a email yet And if it did happen to me then I would get my friend to order :))))) so it wouldn't affect me Anyhow as I still get my goodies either way But please can you tell me when that happened as I know for sure dillards doesn't accept payment from any other country neither do nyx but my friend ordered them for me and milani don't either x But my friend does my ordere when that arises Thanks Hun for the info Will look out for a email But I think they would of written by now to not accept my payment as I ordered at 1130 am and it's now nearly 9 pm a lot of hours later to gibe them time to write But it says processing order

My ups guy is late today. The wait is unbearable because I keep thinking about my lippies melting in the back of his truck. It's somewhat warm today and I'm a little worried. Wish he'd get here already.

These are nothing new, but I thought I'd post swatches anyways. I really love these so far, can't wait to use them.

Electric Cool Eyeshadows in

Pure Flash!
Coil



Pure Flash! looks a little stark and white in my photo, it's actually way softer and more beige.

I was really hoping UPS would say my lipstick was coming today instead of tomorrow. It's been in the warehouse since Fri (not the Mac warehouse I mean whichever one close to you that it goes to right before your UPS guy brings it) just chilling lol. I thought it would get delivered today since it got there Fri but nope it's on a little vacation lol makes me so impatient!

Myself is pretty freakin' awesome. I don't see any glitter or shimmer, it just has a beautiful sheen. A gorgeous nude shade that leans beige and has a mauve undertone. It is so buildable, nothing like a tinted lip balm. It is pretty opaque actually. Seems like major bloggers put on one swipe and decided to call it sheer, just because it's a Lustre finish. :rolleyes: Myself Woodrose YSL Rouge Pur Couture in 10/Beige Tribute
Haven't tried Fun Ending on, but Allura Beauty's description nailed it. It has that lovely sheen that shifts in color. Fun Ending Cheeky Bugger Pink Tea

Does Good Kisser have any red in it, or is it along the lines of Moxie and Pleasurebomb?

I don't think nords is like that
And if it is I not had a email yet
And if it did happen to me then I would get my friend to order

)))) so it wouldn't affect me
Anyhow as I still get my goodies either way
But please can you tell me when that happened as I know for sure dillards doesn't accept payment from any other country neither do nyx but my friend ordered them for me and milani don't either x
But my friend does my ordere when that arises

Thanks Hun for the info
Will look out for a email
But I think they would of written by now to not accept my payment as I ordered at 1130 am and it's now nearly 9 pm a lot of hours later to gibe them time to write

You are one lucky lady! Macys states that a US Billing address is required, I don't understand how you can order from them? I just went there now and the billing address section is limited to the USA for online orders. How do you do it? I tried to do it by phone and went through hours of trouble, and it never worked- Macy's said my bank was the problem, my bank said they were releasing the funds and they weren't the problem.

As for Nordstrom, they advised me that certain brands have recently banned Nordstrom from allowing their customers to ship to parcel forwarders.

My last MAC order was cancelled, but my Lancome order was fine.

I hope you don't have the same issue later down the track...

• Lab Series for Men
• Lab Series Skincare for Men
• MAC
• Me Smooth

Hi, it isn't on the website, but I got an email recently and this was written in it:

Certain vendors restrict their merchandise from shipping internationally, meaning that these items also cannot be knowingly shipped to a freight forwarding location. I wanted to bring this to your attention it appears you are using a forwarding service for your orders and that many of your previous order contain M•A•C items, which are restricted from international shipping.

Woohoo! I just got my package and tried on each lippie. I'll be posting lip swatches later tonight but I just want to say that Lingering Kiss is stunning! Good Kisser pulls super neon pink on me for some odd reason. Hearts Aflame looks very much like Glam on me but it is only slightly darker. HA will definitely be my go-to this fall. Yield To Love is a MLBB color on me but I like it so it's a keeper. I also got the two blushes and I'm very surprised at how much darker they are. I've yet to try FE on but just from the look of it in the pan, it looks a little muddy but we'll see, I suppose. Anyways, the lipsticks in this collection are gems. I love the ones I ordered!!!
