I've been making a list of things I want from Style Black. I have the US prices but was wondering if anyone has some general idea about what sort of prices we will be slugged?

I'm assuming the lipstick and mattene will be ~$30 - $38, based on current lipstick prices and that things like the MES, grease stick, liners etc would run along the same sort of price as their regular counter parts.

What sort of price do you think we'd be looking at for VAE and the mask? I'm curious to try VAE but wonder if it will be worth the price.

I finally found swatches of the glimmerglass and at this stage think I'll pass on them. I thought Blackfire sounded cool, but the swatches aren't really impressing me.

there's a whole thread devoted to style black where your questions may already be answered

Style Black Discussion

i'd ask your questions here for easier answers

ooo and here are the Swatches

Thanks but I've searched there and couldn't find anything about the potential Australian prices. We always pay so much more that I thought someone would have a reasonable guess, or one of the girls who work for MAC may have heard about the pricing already.

I think that she asked here in MAC Chat 'Australia' because she wanted someone from Australia to reply and give her information that US readers wouldn't have access to

I would have done the same thing as you indybrat

Isn't that why they have the specific MAC Chat Australia Forum :P

Oh and I'm guessing the VAE and mask will be around the $30-$40 mark going on the price of the Naked Honey Body Products.. I hope they aren't more than that because I wont be buying them then! haha!

Actually the discussion thread is where most of the Intl post as well as US...as you can see by lack of responses...

aussiemacluvrrr · 09-18-2009, 10:24 PM #6 (**permalink**)

Oh and if no one has the info, the only other thing I can suggest is calling the MAC Pro store in Melbourne (cos I see that's where you are from). They usually have advance pricing info...

lol people take this stuff so seriously...

simplyenchantin · 09-19-2009, 01:01 AM #8 (**permalink**)

Too true hahaha. If no one in THIS subforum knows the AU prices, I doubt anyone in the regular "Style Black Discussion" thread knows them. Generally AU prices would be posted in one of the threads in the AU subforum.. that kind of makes logical sense, right?

The Colour Craft MES were $44 - so that's my guess for the Style Black ones.

I think the lack of replies is more to do with a lot of our lovely Aussie spektrettes being MIA the last week or so.

elle25 · 09-19-2009, 05:02 AM #11 (**permalink**)

Until I find out the actual Aussie prices, I just double the American prices and thats usually pretty close.

simplyenchantin · 09-19-2009, 07:54 PM #12 (**permalink**)

You're right, Sal.. the what are you wearing thread is pretty dead too.. that and, the lack of replies is also likely due to people not knowing the answer.. not due to the question being asked in the wrong subforum lol!

xLongLashesx · 09-20-2009, 04:41 AM #13 (**permalink**)

^^ Ha ha yeah!

I just subscribe to the double whatever they're charging in the US technique then bung on an extra couple of bucks.

Indy, why don't you check out a CP?

rockin26 · 09-21-2009, 01:19 AM #14 (**permalink**)

You just know for certain that whatever they slug us it'll be triple the US rate and you'll want to cry. I'm with Sal go the CP route and save some $$

Mich told me the glosses will be $42, meh!!

simplyenchantin · 09-21-2009, 04:06 AM #15 (**permalink**)

^^ I did? I thought you told me that lol!

That was my thinking exactly. I thought if I was asking Australia specific questions I should has them in the Australia specific forum.

I felt weird doing a CP when I haven't been here very long. However, I have a (non Mac) friend in the States who is going to order for me. I was just trying to decide if I should get the VAE and VATM in it and have the extra shipping or to shell out the extra $ and get it here.

I would shell out for the shipping. It's almost certain to work out cheaper than those two here despite the added weight, especially if you're not shipping super-express or anything.

Make sure you use one of their promo codes for free shipping to your friends place, I think there's one right now.

MrsMay · 09-22-2009, 08:05 AM #21 (**permalink**)

if I remember I will send Tess a sms tomorrow to try and find out if they know the prices yet.

indybrat · 09-23-2009, 03:43 AM #22 (**permalink**)

It's up on the US website now! woo hoo.

I read on their site a couple of days ago it is free shipping on orders over $60 no code necessary. Which is an added bonus.

Ooops haven't been on for a few days, otherwise would have answered this already for you.

VA exfoliator and mask are $35 each
Min Eye $44
Greasepaint stick $38
Lipstick $35
Mattene $36 (i think???)
Glimmerglass $42
CCB $35

We got the stock today and I was playing around with it. My must have list:

CCB Black
Black Knight Lipstick
Greasepaint stick - for the most amazing smokey effect!
ALL the mineralize eye shadows - sooooo sparkly!!!
I got the exfoliator last year, but love that they put it in a tube this time instead of the stupid leaky tub, so will get again, plus the mask

The glimmerglass are nice, but i'll survive with the one I get in my gratis, and can live without the nail polishes.

sambibabe · 09-23-2009, 09:00 AM #25 (**permalink**)

^^ You are the best Jade!!
Yay, I am definitely buying the mask and exfoliator here!! When is the release date?
