Surprisingly I love AV!! Stone and Whirl are my top faves and MR is a wearable blue so I like that. MLM I'll swatch along with RRB n UTA later!!
Ain't nothing can look wrong on you. Stunning. They all look good. Erray-thang. The more I see Whirl the more I want it. The girl at the MAC counter said she swatched them all and Whirl is her fav which shocked her because she didn't use the liner much.

I've had RH and SG for a few days now, but I haven't tried them yet. I got a busted lip Monday when one of my concrete steps crumbled out from under me when running to the house to grab something for my Drs appt. My fiancé owns a concrete company, this should not be happening to me!!! Haha. I busted my butt, my head, my knee and at some point my purse flew up and hit me in the mouth. And I don't carry no little clutch, I'm a mom of a toddler so I have a big MK bag and that sucker is heavy! Maybe if I emptied it out and put the 30 lipsticks and glosses back in my vanity it won't be as heavy. I just want to wear my pretty lippies without my lips looking lopsided. :'(

Box finally came! Matte Royal definitely still pulls purple on me rather than blue but that's ok it's still very unique. Stone is pretty much exactly how I wanted it to look. Whirl does pull a tiny bit more brown than I would have hoped but it's not make me want to cry brown lol I think it's ok on me on it's own and in fall will be pretty. I'll probably pair it with a pinker color underneath though when I wear it

Matte Royal, Whirl, Stone

Love Whirl on you!

I'm loving allll of them minus stone. it washes me out completely . MLM is now my replacement for UTA, I love it so much!! Whirl is definitely one of those mlbb lippies, I'll be keeping this one in my purse for touch ups. I gotta get used to AV since I don't have a such a intense brown lippie like it. I do love it on me tho
I like them all on you.

My minor was Child Psychology, I loved it!! I can *totally* empathize with you about getting tired of school. Truly. I did my Bachelor's in 3 years and went right from that into my dual master's program. I didn't take any time off. Sometimes, I regret it, because I can totally feel the class fatigue. It's very very demanding! Even in undergrad! It's no piece of cake for sure. I think taking breaks and self-care are so crucial for everyone's mental health and doing well in school. And also, everyone does things differently. That is completely amazing what your sister has accomplished and I commend her! But I also commend you because even though she did all of that awesome stuff-- it doesn't take away from the successes you have! Plus You totally rock all the makeup looks you do and inspire me to try new looks and products! :)  It can definitely feel scary! Yes! I look like I'm 16 sometimes, and I'm rather short. So sometimes, with more difficult adolescent clients, it's hard for them to see you as the counselor role. Heck! Sometimes I can't take myself seriously. :haha:  But it's just sooo rewarding when you do get that breakthrough with clients. But in this type of situation it doesn't always happen and you get a lot of repeat clients and it can be discouraging. But right now there is nowhere else I'd rather be dedicating my time to. It can be eye-opening what younger people go through sometimes that I would have never dreamed of going through as a child/adolescent. Sometimes these kids are so insightful into their own lives it gives me chills! LOL oops can you tell I'm super passionate about this? :lol: Thank you!! I appreciate it. That is so exciting for your daughter!! Highly encourage her to get involved in research and other activities that are psych related if she has time in school. They really help build a resume, especially for graduate school, (if that is her goal of course) because it can get pretty competitive. It also can help her discover what kinds of populations she wants to work with! It's something I wish I did more of in undergraduate studies!!  Thank you!!! I will! Have you gotten any yet? My list is so long, I don't know where to start!
Congrats, that's such a wonderful experience! All of you ladies look lovely! I had it all quoted but lost the draft. Gotta love mobile.

This release is pretty confusing. I just called my counter at the Bay (Canada) where I pre-ordered and they still have the release as June 18th. I don't want to wait that long.

I didn't even know the Bay let people pre-order!
Well, one of mine does because they

me (because of how much money I spend) and the other doesn't. But I am working on them and spreading my money around.

OMG no! Poor thing. I'm sorry, but I giggled a little too. At the fact that your fiance owns a concrete company and your steps crumbled!

Where was your daughter when all this happened?? Hope your lips heal fast!

So, counters aren't getting it tomorrow, only stores? Sorry, this thread moves way too fast for me to keep up sometimes. I was really hoping to pick up a few shades tomorrow. But alas we only have a counter in my Dillards. Sigh. I was only going to get DfD but tropic tonic, MLM, and Runway Hit are all on my list. I am in "treat yourself" mind because this week I had my very first client!! After years of studying psychology.. To finally get in a room and HELP people was such an overwhelming positive experience for me, after being so anxious about it for months. So of course my first instinct to celebrate is to go out and get new lipsticks. :lol:
Congrats Lauren! That's awesome!

OMG, LOOOOVE on you! GORG!!! Do you have anything else similar? I'm thinking it's close to some NYX Wicked Lippies. I know those are metallic but I don't know that I need a matte blue.  I like it. This is madness, I think I add more to my list the more I see. I've accepted that I'm going to end up buying them all, lol.
:poke:
