Has anyone got the Graphic Garden palette. Is the payoff better? Is it worth buying or should I save my money for Love that Look?

I love my GG palette I am pretty pleased with it. The lilac/purple colour is the only one that I have issues with.

Hey what's going on with the MAC Aus website, they've only listed 9 of the LTL e/s. I haven't been into the counters yet but did we get all the e/s here? I wanted to check out Grand Entrance but it's not on the website

Ok wait I just saw them in the e/s section but there not in with the Love That Look section. WTF??

If you click on the normal eyeshadows tab on the MAC page, they are in there. Or just type the name in the search and it will come up

I think they just forgot to list them on the collection page.

^^ Thanks chicky, I did find them

I think our website just isn't very well maintained like the US one.

^^ Agreed, the US one is so much better with the videos and everything.

Makeup Art is being put up on the site as I type!

Wow that was quick! My CP isn't even here yet

Is anyone else having trouble loading the Makeup Art Cosmetics collection on the MAC website? Or is it just me and my slow connection (we maxed out our broadband). All I can see is the header with the buttons and black.

Bif I had the same problem

Looks like they have prepped the site for the Makeup Art Cosmetics collection and will probably populate the content on Monday.
Or their web person has stuffed up and nothing can be done till Monday, haha!

Oh how I wish it was up!

I've had problems the last couple of days but as of about an hour ago it is all working just fine. I wish you could view the collection without the video automatically loading though. If you want to look at all 3 artists, you get the video 3 times. You can pause it so it's not a huge drama but I'd hate to be on dial up.

So... what's everyone getting? I had my heart set on Brash and Bold and Rouge Heritage (I think those are the correct names, I've closed the page) but then people have posted on LJ saying the colour pay off is not great and they have to be really packed on. Now I'm wondering if they're worth it, or should I just put that money toward my Style Black savings?

I am getting:
all three quads
Off The Page (already received)
The Perfect Cheek blush (already received)
Crest The Wave
Personal Taste

I have Heritage Rouge from when it was released with Overrich and it is definately pigmented!! It's one of the richmetal pigments, so you get less in the jar, but it is gorgeous and smooth and pigmented

$72 for a quad! Sheesh. On MAC.com they're US$36, convert that to AU$ and it's AU$42.93. I still can't believe how much they mark this stuff up! *sigh*
I'll still probably end up getting one though, Photo Realism looks pretty good...

The front page takes a while to load/doesn't as it has a large video and image on it now for the Makeup Art Cosmetics collection. The three pages for that collection also have a video on them which load automatically. It is very annoying.
