Dang, that's too bad about PRO/b2m- but I won't really be near a MAC store anyways so I guess b2m doesn't matter
I am loving this collection, but I can't even start thinking about all I want when it's not out for another 3 months. I have so many other collections to dream about til then

No I did not look past the Style Warriors...But she did say to another MA...when the MA asked her a question..."Yeah, basically that means anything in special packaging we can not get our gratis on." and then the other said thats because the discounts are being so abused I'm sure."...Then they went on to rag some lady that comes in that they know should not have a pro card...But I pretty much was finished with my B2M at that point and left

I like to use blushers that are a tiny little bit warm, too
Cool-toned lippies are another story. I love pinks! But when I want something to look red and not pink, then it has to have slightly brown undertones. Otherwise it will look pink. For example my Cult of Cherry l/g looks exactly the same on my lips like Style Minx! But when something is REALLY brown, I will give it to my mum

That's exactly what happens with my lips! I already drove some make-up artists nuts, because my lips always change the colour of lipstuff! When I apply Pink Fish heavily, it looks lavender! Bad thing I hate lipliner, huh?
Hm, I guess, I will just have to try everything, because you never know how it will look. Good excuse to go to the Mac counter more often

With turning colours, it's not always the tones in your skin so much as your body chemistry. A lot of people with thin, fair skin cause cosmetics to change colours - for example, I turn many, many lipsticks either pink or a purpley pink. I fill in lips with liner pretty much automatically in hopes of saving the lipstick shade. You never know how something will look on me!

If they fit, that'll be one of the few pairs of shoes that isn't black
I have one pair of white wedge peeptoes, one of pair of silver sandals and one pair of brown boots and all else is black.
But ofcourse you have to co-ordinate wiht your make up
Now I just need to find a nice leopard print purse

CoC does precisely the same thing on me, so I can only use it on top of other things. It's really bad when I do that trick with some lipliners. UGHHHH. I prefer cremestick liners and their kin, for I find they tend to hold up best against my body chemistry.
If there's a lot of stuff you want to try and know whether or not it will turn on you, apply swatches of everything on your hand as soon as you get to the MAC counter; then, leave them there as you take a while to poke around and look at things. It ought to give things a chance to react with your body chemistry and you should be able to see what will go funky on you. It doesn't ALWAYS work, but it helps with a lot of things, I find. Obviously it won't look the same on your hand as on your skin, but it'll generally give an idea of how much you're going to mutilate the shade.

Thank you for the tips!
I normally know, which colours will look odd, and which don't (a good year of mac-addiction really helped a lot
) but there are always surprises - not only nice ones
I will definitely try to leave the swatches on for a while next time, I think that might be interesting.
And I will check out the cremestick liners, I normally prefer liners that I don't have to sharpen
I will go to the counter and see which colours would work for me. Perhaps I can find one, that looks like my lipcolour but has a slight brown undertone, so my lips don't change colours.
But now, back to Style Warriors - I don't want to change the whole theme into a "help Sandra with her colour-changing-lips-theme"

Pfffft, whatever, have you read these threads before?? We talk about everything! Try out Sublime Culture, that may be the liner you seek. I like to line my lips with a cremestick and then use a lipbrush to blend it in over the entire lip, because cremesticks blend out super well!
Now, I must leave specktra for 9 hours or so - damn work!
