I agree it can be crowded ...

I was *really* excited when the new MAC store openned in Antwerp too! BUT I found a closer counter to me than Antwerp. Lille, France. Weird thing is that the MAC website doesn't list this particular counter on their website. It was by pure accident that I found it. Needless to say I was really excited when I found it!

Are there any Sephora's in Belgium? I gotta check.

[elspriem]

no, unfortunately there aren't any Sephora's anywhere in Belgium

The corner is listed on the french website, here http://www.maccosmetics.fr/templates/door/results.tmpl

I really love this corner too!
And Bobbi Brown is also available there

Anyway, Lille and Antwerpen are too far for me

"My" MAC corner is in Maastricht, the Netherlands, this one is not too far

[elspriem]

just a heads up: Balloonacy is available in Antwerp now

Well why wouldn't they put that up on the US one? That's where I do all my shopping. Oh well. I saw the BB also and I was VERY happy. When does C-Shock come out here? Or is it out yet? I have no clue.

You have to choose the France country, but Lille isn't listed if you choose by town!? I don't know why

I don't know exactly, I know it's for the begining of July.
In France I think that the date of release is the 5th of June, so I suppose it'll be approximately the same date for us.

When Flashtronic in MAC Antwerp? Is it 6th August?

Any more news about a MAC in Brussels?

[elspriem]

I dont know when Flashtronic will be out but I bet it wont be August 6!
I was at MAC last weekend and they told me C-shock will be there at the end of July (at long last)! So I'm afraid we'll have to wait at least a couple of weeks after that to get Flashtronic. I'll ask them for a more precise date next time I'm there and let you know

[sweetsugar]

Thanks! :-)

I m looking so much forward to this Flashtronic collection!!!!!!

[elspriem]

no problem at all I live in Antwerp so I walk past there almost every weekend.
I'm very much looking forward to Flashtronic & Rushmetal too
Btw, Paris XL now has Smashbox available in case you're into that

[elspriem]

C-shock is now available in Antwerp. I was told that Flashtronic & Rushmetal would be there "in a few weeks". Will keep you posted

[elspriem]

Flashtronic, Rushmetal, Painterly and 3D are all available now in Antwerp!

I am fairly sure there is a Sephora in Gent

[elspriem]

according to Sephora CS there aren't any in Belgium nor do they have plans to come here but if you have a definite address I'd be interested in it

[medvssa]

Well, I saw a Sephora shop from the bus and I made a mental note to go back to Gent to the shop. I might be wrong, now that you say that you make me doubt, but really... well, in any case, next time I go to Gent I will have a good look and let you know

[sweetsugar]

I live in Ghent and there is no Sephora over here :-(

[MAC_Whore]

Great thread. I need to keep an eye on this. DH may take a job with his firm in Netherlands or Belgium within a couple of years. I would love to move back to Europe and knowing that MAC is close by makes it even better!

I want to renew my make up collection (all old stuff....) and I have chosen for MAC

Yesterday I checked the pricing on the French site and I was wondering of the prices are the same in Belgium?

greetings

funga

[elspriem]

I just checked the French website and compared prices to what I paid recently and they are definitely not the same. Most items seem to be a little more expensive in Belgium

[kittiegothgirl]

whiieee, more belgium people ^^ (newbie)
,i've been wanting to go have a look at the Mac store in antwerp but i'm afraid its gonna be so expensive :s
are the prices reasonable? can someone maybe give me the basic prices there for like lipsticks ,pigments ,etc...?
now i buy most of my stuff from the internet but damn shipping takes so long

[elspriem]

these are the prices I paid recently:
eyeshadow pots 14,75€
Flashtronic eyeshadows 18€
mineralize skin finishes 23,50€
lipstick 17€
gloss (depending which kind) between 15 & 16,75€
pigments 20,50€

[kittiegothgirl]

iep thats allot :s (especially since i'm planning a whole collection of MAC)

[thelove4tequila]

Only 1 MAC and no Sephora? Why don't companies come to Belgium? I usually have to go to France or Germany to get my goodies. Well I'm sooo lucky that I am able to get my stuff through the American site. This damn exchange rate just kills us American's living abroad. Anywho that's wierd that MAC would be different prices in different European countries that use the Euro.

[kittiegothgirl]

so... do they have the back2mac thing going on here in Belgium???

meh, i want a pro store here...and the us prices :'(
