WHAT?! New MAC Collection - France Exclusive?!
I just saw the following post on LiveJournal - would love more details (and a CP!):

"FRANCE EXCLUSIVE COLLECTION
Monday, March 13, 2006, 9:16 pm

I went to my counter last Friday for the Culturebloom even - I am in France. Oh wasn't i surprise to see they had flowering there I did a good haul, and me and the girls had some fun in the store...

I was about to say goodbye, see you for the next collection when my MA threw me "3rd of April, france exclusive". So, thtat made me stay of course. The collectionis called L.A. it comes out on the 3rd of April and all that's left from it will go back to main store on the 12th of April. The collection will only be at paris and lyon counters it seems, it is full of new pigments and it is GOR-GEOUS ! I have seen it already, wasn't allowed to take pictures, but ... damn !

So I emailed spektra about it since its not on the MAC website, didn't get anything back, but this collection is coming out FOR SURE ON THE 3RD and they are going to be offering massages when you make your apointment. Yay ! "

Didnt Spain or Mexico have an exclusive a year or two ago? A lipstick in honor of a female singer, I'm thinking. I wouldnt be too suprised if there was a French exclusive.

I found the info on the Mexico exclusive I was thinking of. Tried to quote the info on this thread, but accidentally bumped the previous thread to the top. (I'm just a mess!) It's about midway down in the S & Blue thread.

Quoted from Ishtarchick on that thread:
"I was wondering if this has anything to do with the lipstick MAC launched as a Mexico exclusive, and the icon for whom it was made was Alejandra Guzman (a local rock star) Guillermo Gutierrez, senior artist for MAC worked with her to create it, and casually, her new album is called "Lipstick" haha
here's the pic of the lippie, it was called "sexcitada" described as a <<sensual, vibrant red bomb>>"

So maybe France is getting it's own exclusive collection.

wishful thinking: let's hope (not to be mean or anything) that it's only something like the glitter bar event at nordies in the US because IF mac is releasing a collection of new pigments in counters in only 2 cities.... they're a$$holes..... there's gonna be mayhem.


and abt' that lipstick, yea it was mexico exclusive but didn't get too much attention eithere here or in other countries, and the girls in live chat didn't know a thing about it, so it is possible that they don't know about the france exclusive one. i used to have a pic of that lippie somewhere in my comp. let me see if i can find it.

ETA here's the pic



this was the pic used for the campaign



and no, there was no postcard.

This whole exclusive thing is total and utter insanity! The company sure knows how to put us in a frenzy. I wish they wouldn't do this, but who am I? :laugh:

The flowering quad is an Asian exclusive so I don't think France will have it.

You should have asked if they do mail order to Germany and the UK.

I guess yes, since she checked for me if they send outside of france, so I guess that means yes

thank you so much! i'll try to place an order & have it sent to a friend to be forwarded to me
now i just need to find out what it is that i want/what the collection will include- *lol*

btw- if they do this "free shipping when you spend...", it would be cool to do a collective order, as i probably wouldn't order THAT much & hate paying for shipping

I wonder if the pigments will be pre-releases of the new batch of pigments that is supposed to be released to the rest of North America in the summer..........

or re-releases of something we've already see, such as pro items. i'm amazed we haven't heard much more about this..damn, if this is limited to france, this is going to cause mayhem on these boards as far as CPs go. i wish we had more information, because if we've already gotten these, or are going to get them, then i really won't care too much..

The girl who made the post on LJ said she could only remember the name of 1 of the new pigments -> it was Rose Gold (Pro metallic)... So, these might not be *new* pigments. If they are actually new pigments, I am going to have to beg, plead, or whatever I have to do to get them!!!

You will have all the informations (if the mac shop has it).
