You will love it!! It's my fave polish ever, lol

I remember buying it soo long ago, but wanted to buy another bottle cause mine ran out

I couldn't find it anywhere anymore for some reason, but it's up on the drugstore.com website so I re-ordered it from there!!

Here's a link to what it looks like:

Tax is lame. That is why I love visiting my family in Oregon: NO TAX! What you see it what you pay. And yeah, the Canadian dollar is kind of suctacular in the states, but the no tax almost makes all my spending worth it. I guess it could be worse, shopping in Europe is killer. Damned Euro! *shakes fist*

not even close. rondelle is a white silver, while silverthorn isn't even silver. its a blue grey. kinda looks like the blue in tilt, without the green.

yes.

actually, there's only one collection a year that we can't get our discount on and that's the major spring collection, such as HK this year. the rest we do, even special packaging such as style warriors!

i made sure to ask about the discount on style warriors (different thread, i know.)

some product info.

lip stain-two new formulas with this. secret crush is the same as before, while loving touch and tender tryst have a translucent frost finish. its got shimmer! they are longwearing, lightweight, and buildable.

the blush-sheer but buildable to a medium coverage, longwearing, and its gorgeous mixed with strobe cream!

fix+rose-same as the the regular fix+ but with the addition of 100% rose water. so you get the same benefits of the chamomile and green tea in the regular fix+.

as for the nail polish, mac will no longer introduce perm colors. they will keep the current perm colors but will only launch new colors as LE.

Thanks for the info!!

What does rose water do for you? Or is it just to smell good?

 

[romi79_2008]

The Il taxes use to be 9%,but the store I buy regulary stuff for our business has 10,25% tax-boo. Here the taxes are 19%.
Can`t wait to see more swatches. There is a good chance I`ll skip all the es, I want the piggies for sure

BLUE grey?

Oh I am SO all over this one. I love colors like this. This collection is going to be the death of me!

So anxious for swatches and facecharts. Is it April 23 yet?

 

[Kayraphat]

Ahh it is still 20 days... I need swatches.

This is exactly what I wanted too! I am so excited for this color. Wasn't sure at first b/c the promo pics are always off from what it really will look like, so I'm glad to hear it is exactly as I hoped!

 

[stv578]

Alright, I can now skip Silverthorn. But my list is still quite lengthy...

Fix + Rose
Summer Rose BP (from DH)
Nail lacquer
Et Tu Bouquet e/s
Rose is a Rose quad
Magnetique l/g (b2m)
and depending on whether I like it, Dejarose...

I've decided to skip the lippies and hold out for Colour Craft.

 

[LMD84]

annoyingly i'm wanting rose fix+!! i know i shouldn't get it because i have the regular one and don't use it that often ... but if it smells good maybe i'd use it more?!? or maybe i should just add my own rose water to my original one

i don't know if i want rose romance lippie anymore because i feel like i have too many pink lippies and so many that i have are quite similar... i'll have to see when more swatches come out...
