Darn.... man, I went in to macys today to check out the collection thinking of buying only YTL. It completely slipped through me that it was an online exclusive. Oh well, I saved 17 bucks I guess :/
Let's hope that Mac will do a restock CharlieKelly. My fingers are crossed.YTL is such a beautiful yet not over the top color. You can wear it out when you are dressed up or simply wear it to work everyday. I work in a conservative office and I could wear it everyday.

Lingering Kiss. Pardon the shoddy application.
LOVE it on you! I've been so busy that I haven't tried mine on yet.

  Mine took the slow boat to China and back lol. The liners I ordered on day two will be here today. My first order will be here tomorrow. Both from MAC within minutes of the launch and both just going to MO. WTF. Oh well...
:wavey: :haha: Ooh, I want to know what you think of the liners. I got the brown one to start with but I haven't received my order yet. My first 2 ls that I ordered right when it launched just now shipped. The 3 other separate orders :D shipped right away.
Elegant, I've worn the brown liner the last 2 days and love it. It's a very dark brown on me. Darker than Brownborder but not as harsh as black on me. It's perfect with Superwatt electric cool.

I'm happy to read that because I wanted it to be dark which I thought it looked in the swatches I saw. Thanks so much for letting me know.

So I got "Yield to Love" in the mail yesterday and although I'm happy with it, it isn't terribly unique. It'll get a lot of use, as do most non-unique colors (at least that's how it always ends up working with me, lol), so at least there's that. For reference, I'm between NC15-NC20. I'm probably a bit closer to NC20 since I tanned a bit from regular exposure to the sun this summer.





I put a closeup lip swatch in the swatch thread, but I thought I'd put these here since...well...my post in the swatch thread was the only one. x] Most of the action seems to be here, lol.

As uncertain as I was about the darker colors in this collection, my boyfriend got me "Lingering Kiss" because I landed a new job, but that hasn't arrived in the mail yet. I'm hoping that it doesn't look brown on me, and leans more plum/red. I also hope the matte formula isn't a letdown, especially after hearing great things about the quality of lipsticks in this collection (hearing Allura say that "Good Kisser" was moisturizing killed me since I own near duplicates of that color already!). I very much like "Dodgy Girl," whereas the Punk Couture lipsticks I purchased tug during application. We'll see where LK falls in that spectrum!

I didn't get them yet, but they shipped already :) I am a falsey newbie so... I'm happy to read that because I wanted it to be dark which I thought it looked in the swatches I saw. Thanks so much for letting me know.
Oh ok. I had placed a large order last week on Sunday and they arrived on Thursday, so they're pretty fast!

Just got my FE blush and

I might need a BU. It's super creamy and pigmented - maybe even moreso than CB! It was really hard to get an accurate picture for some reason, on me it leans way more peach than CB IRL.

That looks so lovely on you! I hope I get a creamy pigmented one
