I was at the Albertville, MN CCO yesterday, and they had:

A ton of the Natural MSF's... I'd estimate 10-12 in each color. They're $17.25.

The new Chromeglasses from Chrome & Creme, I was really surprised to see these here already. I believe they were $10.25.

All of the e/s from the Lure collection (around $10)

A lot of fluidlines - New Weed, Nightfish, Non Conformist, Lithograph, Brassy, Shade, Blue Peep, Iris Eyes, Frostlite, Rich Ground (around $10)

They had a ton of lipstick, I'd estimate 40-50 colors. I noticed Blonde on Blonde, La Di Bra, Lingerie, Pink Maribu. They also had a lot of lipglass.

Other e/s: Moon's Reflection, Love Bud, Falling Star, Da Bling, Vellum, Contrast, and a few others I don't recall the name.

The lip palettes from the Nordstrom Patternmaker collection

Several brush sets from past collections, not sure which ones though

Lots of shadesticks and paints (they always have quite a few of these)

Along with all that, they had their usual items... foundation, powders, blush (no cream, just powder), lipliners, mascara.

If you're interested in Stila, they had more in stock than I've ever seen. They also had appx 10 Sun Showers e/s palettes, and appx 10 Rain Showers e/s palettes.

It was a nice surprise to find so much yesterday. I haven't been in a month or two due to my work schedule and it being 40 miles away. I definitely need to make a point of going at least 1x/month.

PigmentJunkie · 03-11-2007, 10:39 PM #2 (**permalink**)

I went again today, and they were more stocked than I've ever seen!

They had.....

- Appx. 10 Porcelain Pink MSF's
- Seemed like the whole skincare line in the recently dc'd packaging
- Several Danse eyeshadows (Rite of Spring, Rondelle, Jete)
- Large selection of Fluidlines... same selection as last time
- They still had the Natural MSF's in most shades

- Mini pigment set (warm), Intense Eyes palette, Cool Eyes palette, Mini Shadestick set, Lipglass/Lustreglass set - all from the most recent holiday season '06
- More eyshadows than I've ever seen there... the ones from Danse I listed above, Relaxing (from Sundressing), most of the ones from Lure, a few from Technacolour, All that Glitters, Samoa Silk, Silver Ring, Steamy, Juxt, Ricepaper, Retrospeck, Dazzlelight, Rule, Saddle, Falling Star, Moon's Reflection, In Living Pink, Peppier, Nehru
- Usual variety of paints and full size shadesticks
- Usual large selection of lipstick (40+ shades)... a few I remember are Pink Aperitif, Lingerie, Lady Danger, Verushka, Fabby, Eden Rocks, Underworld, Lady Bug, Icon, Plastique, Hue.

I really wish this CCO was closer than 8 hours away. That way I can go when I hear about all the great stuff they have there. Keep the updates coming!

Chrystia · 12-30-2007, 11:03 PM #9 (**permalink**)

So I stopped by here yesterday and thought I would share a few things I remembered. Unforunately I don't remember everything and the names, but there were definitely some nice things!

awesome. i live about 45 minutes away from here. good to know they have a nice selection. =]

baroquely · 01-30-2008, 02:25 PM #11 (**permalink**)

Was there last week, and this is what I remember (I spent an obscene amount of money):

Pigments:

Kitschmas
Golden Olive
Pastorale
Provence

LOADS of Plusglass, Lipglass, Lip Gelées, Lustreglass (probably a good 50% of what a counter would have in stock)
Loads of lipsticks -- standouts being Dubonnet (hiss which I just paid full price for), Hug Me, Twig, Snob, 15 Minutes, Myth, and Freshbrew
Three-packs of clear lipglass ($24 -- stood out as a great deal to me)

No Barbie shadows (sad me), but they had a big selection of other eyeshadows:

Swimming
Jewel Blue
Claire De Lune
Sushi Flower
Beauty Sleep
Eye Popping
All of the Lure shadows

That's nowhere near all of them.

Almost all of the paints
Almost all of the shadesticks
A lot of Fluidlines -- the only notable absence I found being Blacktrack (they had Graphic Brown, which I snagged)

Mineralize Satinfinish Foundation in almost all of the colors
Select SPF in just a few colors
StudioTech in NC/NW 50 & 55

A Viva Glam palate thing that I a) didn't know they would ever sell at a CCO and b) didn't know was ever made.

There were a few quads but nothing that stood out as "OH GOD! MUST BUY NOW!"

Prep & Prime Face Protect SPF 50

All of the Charged Waters

SquirrelQueen · 03-09-2008, 11:57 PM #12 (**permalink**)

Going through Albertville later this week---anything new and interesting at the CCO?

Thanks!

baroquely · 03-10-2008, 12:08 PM #13 (**permalink**)

LOADS of eyeshadow. I mean LOADS.

I ended up with Silver Ring, Wondergrass, and All that Glitters (got the last one though, sorry

). I remember Eyepopping, Carbon, all of the Lure Shadows, Firespot, Claire de Lune, etc.

Beauty powders -- don't know which collection.

Loose powder.

They also had Global Glow MSF, Northern Light MSF (I got the last one they had in that day; they may have received more), and Gold Spill MSF (same).

ALL of the Antiquease stuff (brushes, eyeshadow compacts).

Take Wings Quad.

LOADS of lipstick -- almost all of the Lingerie lipsticks.

The Nordstrom liglasses with the bubbly stuff on the tubes (it was the anniversary collection I think 2 years ago?)

All of the charged waters and a lot of the skin care line.

Quite a few fluidlines, almost all of the paints, all of the browshaders, blot papers, trios of clear lipglass and lipgelees, LOADS of lipgelees in general, a few lipliners, a few eye kohls + brow pencils + softsparkle pencils... it was AMAZING on Saturday.

Hope you have fun! I'm sure there's LOADS of eyeshadow left. I'd never seen that many shadows there. Probably 30?

SquirrelQueen · 03-10-2008, 08:12 PM #14 (**permalink**)

Oh, too cool! Thank you! I think I'm going Thursday---the credit card is melting already, LOL!

Will post the haul when I get home next week.

SquirrelQueen · 03-20-2008, 02:47 AM #15 (**permalink**)

Back from an *interesting* weekend with my folks. Only now getting around to sorting out my CCO haul.

Origins:
A Perfect World lip treatment
Ginger Musts (Ginger Souffle body cream and Incredible Spreadable Scrub)
Rest Easy (Make a Difference hand cream, Sleep Time massage gel and Sensory Therapy Peace of Mind)
Sole Searcher (my second tube---got totally by mistake, thought I was getting cream instead of scrub. Oh, for dumb!)

MAC:

Clare de Lune eye shadow
Satellite Dreams eye shadow
Petalescent eye shadow
Zonk Bleu! eye shadow
Fertile eye shadow
Beautiful Iris eye shadow

Plum-Like lipstick
Creme de la Femme lipstick
Blast O' Blue lipstick

Smoothberry Cremestick liner
Beurre Cremestick liner

Opal Lustreglass
Pink Meringue Lipglass
Springbean Lustreglass

Just had to have Blast O' Blue---it's impractical but so unique! And while I prefer neutral eye shadow, I could not resist Zonk Bleu! Such a pretty teal that I had to get it.

Didn't see anything new other than what Baroquely mentioned. A few MSF's but none that interested me (no Northern Lights, bummer) and some darker shades of foundation and concealer.

Still, not a bad haul!

breechan · 05-18-2008, 10:05 PM #16 (**permalink**)

Hey guys, how much is the sales tax there? Also, do they have a duty free program for foreigners? TIA

zabbazooey · 05-27-2008, 01:04 PM #17 (**permalink**)

Sales tax is 7.0%...I'm not sure about the duty-free thing.

I just went yesterday, picked up Rule e/s, Raven kohl power, and Mystery kohl power.

They had sooo many things I wanted to haul...had to budget!!!

Has anyone been to Albertville lately??

Thanks Ladies

chap0287 · 10-22-2008, 11:36 PM #23 (**permalink**)

I went to Albertville today and, CCO didn't have a lot of great MAC stuff in my opinion. The had lots of l/s and l/g, but it just wasn't what I was looking for I guess. They had minimal e/s and no paintpots.

I don't know if this was helpful! I didn't end up getting anything, but that's probably just because I have so many things that I want from the new collections!

Grace · 12-09-2008, 02:57 PM #24 (**permalink**)

I was there last weekend. They had a pretty good collection of products but I was only after Heatherette and Fafi and was in a hurry so I don't have specifics.
They had the Heatherette Lollipop Loving lipstick
