yes please do! :) how is weartime with/without eating/drinking? I only like vampy shades that wear long :)

Diva Antics, pic from my IG. I lined the very edges of my lips with Cranberry l/l but the rest of the pigmentation is all the lipstick itself!

Really great actually! I ate dinner/drank with it on and it faded only slightly and very evenly, I was really impressed since it's not a matte. I actually prefer Diva Antics to the formula of the one Mattene I got.
thanks for the pic :) it looks very cute and wearable, like vampy but not overly dramatic so better for everyday :)

The same with me!  I just finished a chat with CS and I was informed that my order is being fulfilled BY A STORE.  WTF!!!!  I could have waited and picked it up in store today when it was released!  I think Laurennox mentioned that they fulfilled one of her orders from a store last week but I think what she wanted was out of stock online.  I chatted with them yesterday and they told me that it was being fulfilled and I would receive it by 10/6 but they failed to mention that it was coming from a store.  I'm really not happy about this and I'm going to call CS and let them know that they should let people know that their products are being fulfilled by stores and not online.  :mad: :wtf: :rant:  
Smh...I just got the shipping confirmation and theyre*** sending it via USPS. Since when did Nordstrom start using them?!

Own the Look looks gorgeous. I am sure I have several lipsticks from the same color family. I lost my NYX when I purchased Aria. It is one of my fav lipsticks. I love to mix it with Flat Out Fabulous. I love Strutting Fab on you.
Thanks Vande! I ended up getting own the look though.

If it wasn't for your swatch I wouldn't have looked twice at it.

I was pleasantly surprised by Deep Love. It looked so much like Antique Velvet in T's swatch that I thought I wouldn't like it.

I don't think it looks like Antique Velvet in person. It has a lot of deep purple tones in it.

I so need it. Getting it today along with ALL.

It is but yes, I have something like that, maybe it's a Covergirl one...Aria is gorg, I never got it because it's a supposed dupe of a WNW one that I have but I think I'm going to get it anyway. I had it in my Ulta cart a few days ago (they have B2G1 free) and took it out trying to be all good. But it's a color I can get at local beauty supply stores, the other stuff I couldn't.

Ok, so I NEED Enamored. Do they still have it in ULTA stores? That whole look is gorg on you.

It's gorg, yes they have it here. Wearing Temtress from that collection today. It's a "deep royal purple"

how is my inner femme and diva antics? uh I hate that they are amplified and not satin or matte but love these colors.. how do dark shades wear in the amplified formula? do they bleed/feather a lot etc? I only have nudes/pinks in amplified never really tried it in red and vampy shades


Me too but they're gorg in person IMO. My experience with vampy Amps is crap...I have Pure Heroine and it's patchy and I swatched PMS and same thing.

I can't with them now. Why?? Now I'm going to shop there less. Maybe USPS is when they ship from stores...cheaper.

As soon as I got off the phone with CS, I received a shipping notice (how ironic). He told me that it was being shipped from a distribution center in Pennsylvania but the online chat person told me it was coming from a store. USPS delivery must be the new carrier for them. They sent my Vamplify order via USPS. They were my only hope for not going through the headache of ordering from MAC. I guess next time I'll order from Macy's (as long as it totals $50) or just call the store and see if I can presale what I want.

I know! I ordered my stuff on Monday and I won't receive my order until Tuesday. I could have picked it up yesterday in the store.
That's ridic. Ulta is normally slow too but I placed an order on Weds and it's being delivered today! I almost fainted with shock. The warehouse is in PA and they shipped UPS though, so maybe I was just lucky this time.

No prob! They have a promo going on that I took advantage of:
200 Bonus Points - Purchases of $45 or more 9/27/2015 - 10/3/2015
Earn 200 Bonus Points with any purchase of $45 or more. That's worth $6 off your next purchase!

So go by tomorrow and spend over $45! LOL. It was an email I got on Sept. 27th.

I just went to Nordie's to get foundation and http://www.specktra.net/t/190199/mac-macnificent-me-collection-sep-21-oct-1-2015/780wound up with the E/S palette, Personal Pick, and Everyone's Darling. ED is a very unique color to my stash and I'm liking how it brings out my blue eyes. I'm loving PP actually and the Mattene formula. I'm considering getting one of the other shades too. The E/S lovely, so many flattering and easy to use shades!

Nice haul! Does Personal Pick remind you of any other MAC lippies you have? I was getting a Nouvelle Vogue vibe from the very few online swatches, then did a side by side on Temptalia and they are very different:

What? The USPS is the slowest. That sucks!

The last two times Nordies fulfilled my order from a store, both stores used UPS. For Julia Petit back in March and for Uninterrupted eyeshadow earlier this summer. So odd. I also ordered my CL lippies from them last month and they used UPS. I hope this USPS stuff is just on a temporary basis from their new warehouse :sigh:

NV is much warmer and more pink than PP. Here are swatches:




Top left: Up the Amp
Bottom left: Please Me

Top Right: Nouvelle Vogue
Middle Right: Personal Pick
Bottom Right: Pink Noveau

PP dupes none of them, but it's closer to if you mixed Up the Amp and Pink Noveau together and then sheered it out.
