Oh my gosh YES!! I felt better instantly :P I think Mac is really laced with cocain or Heroin or something...Its like I needed that fix... Haha

Hey girlies...I have this lovely little idea for ya.

Put one light application of your DC Too Fab lipstick, then one very light highlight swipe of your Melrose Mood lippie just on the middle of your lower lip. Well, I think it looks beautiful

I did it, just bought my back-up.

[missmacqtr]

i just bought Fashion l/g and she gold l/g from ebay and i'm bidding on Too fab l/s ,i hope i win. on it's way to me the palette .THIS complete my DRESS CAMP collection ,

i'm so so so happy

I just bought another Too Fab off Ebay...ughh I was watching 3 different ones & someone snatched them all up in no time. I just happened to catch one as it was just listed.

This has been my absolute favorite of all collections - well, I really loved Barbie too

I can tell you girls how to get a great dupe for fashion lipglass! Just use show orchid lipstick (pro) and put cult fave (fafi collection) or a similar mauve colour over the top - voila! No more paying over the odds for an ebay purchase

Well, I was going to buy the whole collection but with everything going on since my brother passed and getting his estate in order I haven't had much time online. Went to maccosmetics.com the day it came out and everything was gone! I broke a cardinal rule of mine and paid an insane amount for the palette on Ebay. Guess that is it for me on this one. If I had been able to get the whole collection it would have worked out about the same roughly so that is how I am trying to justify the cost in my mind...LOL

I hope you love it! The blush is really pretty & so is the case. Don't feel bad, I bought an extra palette on Ebay - but she is a sweet spectra gal & a got a fairly good deal.

So sorry for the passing of your brother.

Now I know who keeps beating me to the punch on this one...LOL...had to console myself with a NIB Fafi Fun N' Sexy that just got listed at a reasonable price instead.

I get so depressed reading this thread because I wasn't able to get any dress camp stuff! Boo-hoo for me! I hope you all enjoy yours and please post pics so I can live vicariously through you all!

Aw, I do hope that somehow MAC may restock a little more for everyone.
And, I wish I would've bought more the first time & just sold them here for the same price to you gals - not ebay.

[BeautyPsycho]

Wow, those e-bay prices are crazy! If only I knew.. LOL

[elegant-one]

I knew it was going to be limited, but I would have never guessed it was this limited. MAC is going to have to figure out that it has more customers (ok addicts) today than what they previously had & account for that in the total production. Really, hour sell outs???

[CantAffordMAC]

I wasn't interested in this at all...

Now i regret not getting the lipstick

[coachkitten]

I can't remember a collection that sold out this early. I seriously thought that when I woke up on Tuesday that I would be able to order no problem. Silly me! It is just super frustrating! I really never thought that this collection would be this big of a deal!

[purplerinne]

Remind me next time to schedule my vacations around MAC collections...LOL I go on vacay and lost out on this pallette.....

im so impressed by this collection. the eyeshadows are gorgeous, and very complimenting on my blue eyes. the beauty powder is such an aweseme shade of pink. the lipglasses are really unique, i just skipped on too fab because I thought it would be too similar to Hollywood Nights. My fav look so far is Melrose Mood w/ Fashion on top!!

I SO agree, especially with the blush color!

After looking at ebay this morning I can sure see where the quantity went, which is why most of you didn't get anything.

Yeah, I noticed that the seller I bought my l/s and l/g from had listed two more of each l/g and another l/s, which of all are gone. It just rubs me the wrong way that they can buy so many of them, just to sell on ebay. The people who really wanted it, couldn't get any because these people bought them all up. Maybe MAC should have done a 2 limit per item since this collection was SOOOOO limited. Doesn't make sense why they would let people buy 3-4 of the same item if the stock was so small.

Absolutely agree! They hoarded the product knowing that it was le. The 2 item limit on a LE collection is a great idea.

I JUST GOT MY PACKAGE!!!!!!!!!! I kept refreshing the UPS website, and then rushed down to Central Supply (I'm at work, lol) to pick it up. I am sooo in love with this collection! I love the palette and the lippies are gorgeous! Too Fab is the perfect shade of bubble gum pink. Perfect for summer.

[elegant-one]

^^^Zabbazooey I'm so excited with you! Its nice to hear that others love the colors as much as me

[clotheswhore]

Anybody knows how much the palette costs in Japan? My brother is going there on business next week so I'm thinking of asking him to get me one.
