Gawd, Lavender Whip is in the mail but I feel compelled to get Blooming Lovely and hold on to the receipt for dear life! Maybe sell it to a friend.

ummm....so I bought the makeup bag online and got it today...and I don't think it is worthy of the $30 price tag. In fact I am kicking myself now for paying that kind of money for a MAKEUP BAG! The pattern is cute, but the bag isn't lined and it is really flimsy - not sturdy like the Hello Kitty bags. The bag itself is really flat and doesn't have much shape to it. And the big flower pull is kind of tacky and cheap looking to me. I am so disappointed. I'll be checking out the color collection at Macy's tomorrow and I'm sure I'll like the actual makeup a lot more than this silly bag. If you're on the fence about the bag, IMO it's a SKIP!

Oh no! Really? Maybe I won't get the bag then. I wanted to, but I really don't need it (have plenty of Lancome GWP bags).
And not getting a bag means I could get two other shadows or lippies from the perm collection!
I'm definitely getting Birds & Berries, Shell Pearl and Prim & Proper. Almost definitely getting A Different Groove.
I'm excited! Goodies tomorrow!

Thanks for the review, I was thinking of getting it to carry some of my nail polishes but now I think I can get away with a cheaper bag...

I was debating ordering it and when I made the decision, it's sold out!
Edit: Online, I mean MAC's website.

Yeah I had a feeling it would go fast so I have no idea why I waited. I haven't felt the greatest today so I'll blame it on that. Lol. I'm going to ask my mom if she's going to be around MAC tomorrow and have her pick me up one.

Blue India is sold out already? Wow that was fast! I'm interested to see what's so special about this tomorrow! I wasn't crazy about how the color looked on Karla's nail swatches. But in other swatches I like it. I guess I just have to see it tomorrow. I'm the most excited about seeing Prim & Proper and Bough Grey.

Purchased Blue India nailpolish, Ever Hip Lipstick, Petals and Peacocks Lipstick, Frankly Fresh lipglass, Perennial High Style lipglass, English Accents lipglass, Summer Rose Beauty Powder from Nordies today.
Still on the fence about Shell Pearl (because it would be more of a highlighter for me), Dames Desire e/s, and Birds and Berries e/s (i rarely wear eyeshadow but these are pretty. Gonna convince myself that I dont need it so I dont spend any more money. I purchased way too much from the Spring Forecast Collection).

Kiss = Sofia, I love your reviews. I love your kitty and birdie. (I had a pet bird just like yours when I was a kid) My cat always gotta check my new MAC goodies, too.
Based on your review, you didn't like Bough Grey - I decided to take it off from my list. If you didn't like the texture, then, I wouldn't like it either. I will get Prim & Proper and Shell Pearl for sure.
I, too , saw "Alice in wonderland" yesterday. I was worried that I will be disappointed, but actually it was better than I thought. LOVE Chesire Cat!!

Good to know this.....I have the larger of the two bags held with my stuff for tomorrow, so maybe I'll put this one back....I'm definately getting Birds & Berries e/s, but I'm rethinking the Bough Grey and instead thinking of Dame's Desire (or Satellite Dreams---thanks Audrey!)...I also have Ever Hip and Frankly Fresh being held....I tried both of these on today....Ever Hip is pretty, but just doesn't scream MUST HAVE for me...sad to say. I also tried A Different Groove, which did NOT look good on me.
I'd rather get Shell Pearl, which I saw described as a lighter, peacher and less-disco-ey version of NARS Orgasm blush!!
So, tomorrow revised list may be
Birds & Berries e/s
Frankly Fresh l/g
Shell Pearl b/p
Either Dames Desire or Satellite Dreams e/s
Naked liner
Trimmed in Pink liner
only time will tell.......

Now I have second thoughts about P&P...
I wonder it's too brown on me---Blushbaby was too dark and weird on me, so I might have to check it in person...

My list: bigger makeup bag prime and proper shell pearl peachstock if it doesnt look brown and muddy on me ever hip perenial high style naked and in synch lip liners if they still have them this is probably my biggest haul since hello kitty. i havent fallen in love with any of the eyeshadows this time around. |
