This is SO cute! Your hubby's a champ.
That's an exciting package day! You'll have to let us know what you think of everything.
Oooh, I forgot about Feline. Think I'll get one or two more. Also, maybe I should consider Tweet Me b/c I don't have Melon or Paradisco.^ at first I thought that said he's a CHUMP
Well, 2 boxes had Play It Proper (1 in each box )3rd box had a 2nd Feline. 4th box had Mally's TSV from QVC - OMG - GORGEOUS kit.And I forgot, there was a 5th package but I nabbed that before he got to the rest - it was 2 Bubble Lounge from Macys
I'm thinking my one MA said that Tweet Me was like Paridisco (sp?) kinda
I think ups has been here everyday for a month or so with christmas stuff & makeup
I know for sure I want Dandizette, cause i love to rock this type of color in the winter.Oooh, I forgot about Feline. Think I'll get one or two more. Also, maybe I should consider Tweet Me b/c I don't have Melon or Paradisco.
Yes, I have to reconsider Dandizette. I tried Deep Truth again yesterday and I loved it. Dandizette is, like you said, the 2.0 version. However, I am reminded that I have Strike A Pose which is very close to Odalisque. Despite the better texture, I have to pass. I am more willing to buy Noir Plum, though despite having Grape pigment and Push the Edge pigment. That's because I am a nut for purple shadow.Oooh, I forgot about Feline. Think I'll get one or two more. Also, maybe I should consider Tweet Me b/c I don't have Melon or Paradisco.

i just thought about the quality of the shadows again. i know the colors are similar to what is out, but i like to think of these as the 2.0 or 2nd generation of those colors. just redone and better.
Shontay, I'm so glad you like all of your stuff! I really wish I wasn't completely broke right now or I'd go to the counter tomorrow to check stuff out. I don't want to fall in love with something if I can't afford it.
But, very glad you love all your stuff girl! I'm sure you can rock Peacocky!
IIIII know... me too! I do not own ANY blue shadows whatsoever because I've never been happy with looks I've made with them, but now after going through the MC thread I'm imagining it paired with Odalisque over Siahi as a base! Urrrrgh.... Maybe I can convince my boyfriend to treat me lol! I honestly hadn't even looked at it because I was so convinced in the beginning that I wouldn't use that type of colour and it was any easy pass...
Yes- let's hope there's some stuff left! I, too, am loving hearing everyone's reviews and hauls!I had key word had money saved but then my youngest grew out of his toddler bed and I just had to shell out 300 for a new big kid aka a twin and then my cell cracked and I had to replace it today so sadly nothing is coming home with me. Maybe there will be something left when money comes our way Layla. Glad everyone is enjoying there stuff and I am loving hearing what everyone got.
Mine was shipped yesterday but Fedex didn't pick it up yet, I should have received it today but it seems like I won't receive it tomorrow either because my package is still at the MAC warehouse tonight. What's up with that? Same thing happened to my last order.
Ok guys don't laugh at me but I'm starting to freak out that my package will be left off on my front door and get stolen! I'm having my surgery tomorrow (when my stuff is due to arrive at my front door) and my parents will drive me to surgery and then we'r going to their place. I can't drive for 2 days after surgery to go back home and hubby is working late tomorrow night. So nobody will be home to get the package inside. I can't stop thinking about the possibility of it getting stolen!
I don't know what's wrong with me, I'm never this obsessive with my makeup. I need to obsess/freak out over my surgery not this, lol!
I know I have to sign for my MAC and they won't leave it but that might depend on the carrier and where you live. If you have the tracking number then you can call the service with instructions or get more information?
Ohh good call! I have Evening Aura too.
...
.....
.......Why do I still want Tweet me?
They also hold these things for weeks if need be!
Jenn.. we most certainly try to be bad influences..that's the thrill of getting old and nasty..
Layla and silent.. money comes and money goes.. when you are young you can substitute lots of products for what you were lemming... when you are older you don't have much choice -- but you will have a lot of time to work, save and enjoy.

Dalliance: This color is amazing. It will be awesome all over the eye or as a highlight (just go easy because this thing is pigmented). You will never run out of these shadows because it takes so little to have it show up. It's so hard to describe, IMO because you can play with it in the light. It's a kind of white/gold and definitely metallic. It's more vibrant than Maui Wowie by Urban Decay and the big plus for me is that it doesn't have the glittery fallout of MW.
Centre Stage: True, deep, chocolate brown. This is the brown I've been looking for. It's not red and not dull at all and it's a color I want to wear all over my lid. I've lways wanted to do a brown smokey eye and now it's possible. I just haven't found another brown like this.
Let me tell you that you need at least one of these lip colours in your life. Pick any one of them, but get one. They are the creamiest, most weightless products that has ever crossed my lips.
Exxxhibitionist: Not as opaque as I expected. It takes maybe 2 go arounds to get the coverage I want. The color is bright without being jarring. It's a bit more orange than Viva Cyndi, but it's quite close. I do prefer Cyndi, but this is just like have a Cyndi backup which is what I was going to buy anyway.
Flaunting It: It's really a grey/mauve. It's a dark mauve that looks very natural on. I don't own a color like this. It looks less like Up the Amp in person as opposed to in swatches I have seen. Maybe that's my pigmented lips at work. Just like Exxhibitionist, I didn't find this to be totally opaque. That's fine, though.
Vanity Fair: I was torn over whether or not to buy this because of a review calling it streaky. I didn't find it streaky at all. It a lighter, brighter and obviously creamier Pink Nouveau. If you love colors like that on yourself then get VF.
Super: The nude I was hoping it would be!!! So nice and natural on my lips. First, I thought it would be to yellow/beige, but it's perfect. It doesn't make me look dead either. NC45/50 girls with pigmented lips, this is one nude for you.
and now for my absolute favorite...PEACOCKY!
I cannot tell you how much I love this damn thing! I am buying 2 more for myself and 1 for a friend who really wants it, but can't afford it right now. This thing is spectacular. I can't believe I even let it creep in my mind that maybe I can't pull it off. It's not like the swatches I've seen. Again, I think it's due to my darker lips. This is not sky blue, it is not streaky and I cannot see red pearl. What I do see is a gorgeous deep blue on my lips. It seems like blue mixed with the smallest bit of black to make it wearable. I don't know the fancy names of different kinds of blues, but it's definitely darker than sky blue but not as dark or possibly dull as navy. It's not jarring or shocking, but mildly surprising b/c, of course, you don't see people with blue lips every day. Girls, I am telling you that if you are even remotely interested, give it a try. This is the perfect blue, in my opinion. I tried it straight out of the tube and it worked. On lighter girls, it will most likely be not as dark, but I think it will still work. For me, the color is true to the tube and not what I have seen on lighter girls.
I am over the moon about what I got. My fave, of course, is Pecocky when it comes to the lippies. The shadows, I can't even choose. From my Mickey stuff, I love Saffron the most. So happy that nothing has to go back. Still, this isn't my personal favorite Mac collection. For my own reasons I love Make Up Arts, To The Beach and Venomous Villains. Still, this is an A+ collection for quality. Even though I have tons of shadows, I think I will buy one or two more from this one because of the quality. It'll be hard for Mac to top this one this year. And yeah, I will be rocking Peacocky on my birthday in a couple of weeks!
