What about loves lure, how is that one in terms of pigmentation? is it worth the hassle?

p.s thanks for the heads up of deep fixation, I was considering it because it looks lovely in the pan but if its just another brown... meh...
The pigmentation is amazing. It's a very high quality eyeshadow just like you would expect from a Veluxe Pearl. It's not powdery at all and blends like a dream. You just have to decide for yourself if you would wear a shimmery red.

905 is right outside Toronto, yes! They actually make most of the Mac stuff here in Toronto (yet our prices are higher, go figure). Our local Mac pro has all the lipsticks available but no blush or eyeshadow left and she said there's no restock coming, sadly. Also, I'm wearing Pre-Raphaelite tonight. I was told it's very 90s Neve Campbell on me :)
Yes I never really understood that either (inflated price in the country where it is mostly made) but I knew it was near Toronto but I didn't want to say bc ON is pretty big if my memory serves me right, and I have a friend in Hamilton who has the same area code. And you will have to post a photo!!! I forgot all ab Neve Campbell!! She was a beautiful woman I wonder what she is doing now...

If you listen to the automated lady she speaks in French which is also a secondary language in that area (Canada). I just was looking at an old receipt i had and the address on it is: CDAC 550 Petrolia Rd Toronto, ON, Canada so yeah they are in Toronto. The other number they have is a 905 number obviously for Canadians to call.

Ok got it. All I could go by was what was on my order confirmation and what was on my CC charge...so honestly if it wasn't said on here I wouldn't have known it was initiating in Canada in any way. Not that it matters at all...just found it pleasant not to pay tax or shipping and to see that it is labeled as NY. Glad it ships from NY though because I'll have it on Monday. The only thing I've ever ordered from Canada (Lit Cosmetics glitters) took over a week to arrive...and I'd hate to have the lipsticks in my order traveling that long in the crazy heat here (it's not even noon and it's already 96 degrees! Higher if you count the humidity). Anyone with the blushes...what is your take on Stylish Me? Trying to decide if I want to try and order it online on the 18th or if it's easily dupable. That's the only thing I couldn't get on my list.

Luckily for me he isn't home when the mail comes! Or you could do what a friend of mine does if you work at a small office have it delivered there. She gets all of her makeup sent there so no evidence!

I called the number, they only had wholesome lipstick from the nude collection, and I paid tax, shipping and handling is free.

Sneaking around can be such hard but rewarding work. My husband just discovered that I have a Nordstrom (Mac mainly purpose) card this week while he was sorting out some mail. I was so careful up to this point!!!! He was kinda upset at first then he just said that he hope I purchase something for him on it, lol.
I have been super good since TR so today I decided with all the talk of new price increase etc to reward myself with some replacement basics plus a few permanents I have been thinking about for a while. I made a trip to Nordstrom (under the guise of Post Office, nail salon and a few other miscellaneous "necessary" errands)
My haul today was Blot Powder Pressed in DD, DD Mineralized SF,Studio Fix Fluid Foundation in NW47, Embark e/s, Haux e/s, Saddle (B2Mac), Shell CCB (looks so good patted under blushes), Breezy Blush, Flirt and Tease Blush, Ambering Rose Blush.
All the evidence was taken out of the Nordies tell-all bag and crammed into my new MJ cosmetics case (from Nordies that my husband was told costs $28) then quickly put away!!!!

It has a lot more red compared to the dark browns I have.



Glamour Check - Deep Fixation - Carbonized - Friendly - UD Smog - UD Toasted - UD Dark Horse
Thanks for the comparison! I thought I wanted Deep Fixation but if it's so much redder than Glamour Check, then I shall stop trying to get it. Glamour Check is already too red for my tastes!
