MAC X Giambattista Valli Collection (July 2 / 9, 2015)

[neondust]

Yeah the barry m was like that but I pretty much counted on that one being a under gloss type color for me! Im also kind of excited to mix with it my melt darling for some reason. I cant imagine how I can wear it by itself....I could be wrong but I find it hard to wear st germain with out a gloss if I have any tan!

It's Friday night and they're all young! No time to hang out with us old farts

We talk about tp

P.S I thought the EXACT same thing! My husband and I have BEEN in the bed...hes cussing at some sports crap and Im trying to figure out why anyone would pay 1000$ for this collection on ebay!

I love it!

Well, that's exciting! I will go check those out online. I don't remember that Dior palette. I did see the YSL palette. I would love to hear your thoughts on it. I wanted to get the new YSL primer & blur thing but I don't see it on Nordies

The Dior Palette is that 5 shade neutral palette they launched a month or so ago (with the longest name ever-Dior eye revival Illuminating Neutrals eye palette

) . For Nordstrom Anniversary, they launched a rosy variation with shades more rosy hued and plum than black!! So I went to check the difference between the two and finally ended up with it!!

The Rock Resille Palette is peachy toned and more muted of the two! I love the other fall palette- Metal Rock Palette- Gold, burgundy,lilac

! The bronzey golden shade has little fallout though! Works well with a good base than alone!!

Where did everybody go tonight

I'm here too. I took a nap... from around 7-9:30, so I think I might be up for a while. I'm a terrible adult.

 

[neondust]

Ive been so distracted by

Speaking of beautiful roses, I bought this gorgeous large orangey coral rose & a temp heart tattoo LOL! to give to the MAC SA at Nordies tomorrow that was so great helping me get all the lipsticks that I wanted on Thursday

I always try to give a gift of thanks when people are so kind & helpful.

awwww I just seen this. I was in such a hurry when I ordered from them that I didn't change my zip code since I haven't ordered from them since I moved (my husband has all our credit card bills go to his office and I swear I just said use the same shipping and billing address) but that's not what it said once I got the email that it had shipped. SO I FREAKED OF COURSE BUT I called them and the chick WAS SO NICE!!!!!!! Im a southern girl and I LOVE GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE! I would totally buy her a rose if I could!

 

[Kaidan]

 I went to nordstrom again ..........:amused:  !!   Got the LE Dior eye revival palette (for comparison purposes to the original - Purely science) and YSL rock resille :haha:

Can you post swatches of both palettes?

 

[Mayanas]

Omg I absolutely love this whole collection they are all beautiful and I'm obsesed with Bianca B I'm a nc35 and it pulls pink not white it's so pretty I bought one for my sis but I think I might keep it!! Lol Charlette is pretty but basic so I would say that's my least favorite

This makes me excited I went and added Charlotte to my order last minute! And whomever said they are NC35 and Bianca B pulled not white and pink on them...you made me REALLY excited!! Everyone's swatches are awesome so far!

Mmmm im NC 30 35 and i bought BB i dont know why.

 

[maybeline46]

Oh my...I hate the ordering frenzy SO much! Yes, I think great cs is so hard to get sometimes. My girl said she would call me when she got in at Nordies in the morning....she actually did what she said she would do. I was surprised really. It made me so happy that she honored her word.

So you got what you wanted then?

OMG, I probably haven't taken a nap since... I was a baby...I'm so hyper lol. Hun, you've been through a lot, so you deserve a nap!

Oh my dear friend...you are an amazing treasure of information!

Hopefully i can check them out tomorrow. Thanks!

Awwww, thanks, love.

I'm doing okay. I think it just caught up with me a little bit today. But, to be fair, I love naps. My little dog curls up with me and I'm good for at least an hour.

I haven't got mine yet to know for sure but Bianca looks a lot like barry m baby pink (100) I used to own the barry m and its def super super pale chalky matte pink. Iits def a more retro matte finish but it would last u forever because its really pigmented!

Thnaks for the info on Bianca B ladies. I tried on my Mac Beauty lipstick from the Glamourdaze collection this morning and was wondering if it's anything like BB. As soon as I put on beauty and looked down at my bathroom counter I remembered why I haven't worn it in over a year. My lips matched the bathroom tile :haha:

I haven't gotten mine either but the MAC sa today says it's so dry she feels like she has to put a gloss on it and even T said it settles into every line and either she or Karen said it's not as smooth as the other shades. I also felt that way when I swatched. And I still can't wait to try it, lmaooo! It's Friday night and they're all young! No time to hang out with us old farts :lol: We talk about tp

Lol, you ladies are too much! ️

That's one of the liners I was going to try. Yay! I can't wait to get my BB!

OH YES! STALKED FOR 12 HOURS! I was on it as soon as it was put up at Nordies! I just got Bianca b and tats.....were saving for our vacation so I haven't bought anything in a month just so I could. Its in Nashville and says it will be here Monday!

:lmao: This old fart  is sipping merlot, shopping online at Sephora & Nordies & waiting to be talked into buying something else from V :haha:   Hey, I feel like the price I got my TP for is worth celebrating LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And...you still need to wear red!

I see you all are still talking tp! The fun never ends. Didn't catch up, but did you get all the lipsticks? I ended up getting all of them and the gloss. Got Tats and Margarita and the gloss today, super quick ship from Bloomies. I actually like the packaging, feels retro sixties. I wasn't too bad with Nordies, got the Dior rosy palette and the Mac nude lip set.

I would love to see somebody buy the $1000 collection on ebay, swatch them all and then return it. Ebay doesn't allow "no returns" policy anymore even if you put that in the listing. It would be great to see a scammer get scammed.

 

[HeatherGrinnell]

Ugh! They look so good on her, can't wait for mine.

 

[Naughtyp]

Are these in stores yet? i said i didnt want them but now, of course i do =(
