I've just won a makeup brush from Prestige on Twitter :)  I'm guessing it might be a fan brush, since that's the brush people had to identify to be chosen at random to win.

According to Temptalia, even Cyber Ice is LE.

That's cool! I've won a nail polish from Llarowe, the seller I've been buying all the indie polishes from lately. :)

Well.  Still no package from Aus.  I e-mailed the seller and she said a couple days ago she'd go to the post office and see if there's a hold up they know of or if it's been returned for any reason or something but I've heard nothing back.  I'm suspecting Customs has it tbh.

Think I'm going to make another order from the US for OPI on eBay too very soon.  I have my eye on a few and I only have a small OPI collection so I'd like to get that built up.

OPI Nail Polish Louvre Me Louvre Me Not
OPI Nail Polish Spiderman Collection Number One Nemesis
OPI Nail Polish You Don't Know Jacques
OPI Nail Polish Russian Navy
OPI Nail Polish Ski Teal We Drop
OPI Nail Polish Midnight In Moscow
China Glaze Bohemian Luster Nail Polish Deviantly Daring

I'm also picking up OPI Just Spotted The Lizard from the Spiderman Collection - it's such a gorgeous colour.  Shame the girl on eBay sold out already - I'm paying UK prices for it. :(

Awesome - thank you!

Eww, you might want to check the labels on your anti-aging creams *shudder*

I went ahead and ordered the Illamasqua 'Alter Ego Mystery Selection' box from Debenhams, which was delivered today.  Loving the beautiful pink nail polish which is 'Collide' and I'm looking forward to trying it out.  I'm wearing the DivaLicious polish I got on Etsy at the moment, though, and don't want to take it off too soon.  The 'Electrum' Liquid Metal is gorgeous - very creamy (as I found out when I accidentally stuck my fingers in it whilst removing the lid),

The mystery shades I got were 'Never' powder eyeshadow, which is a matte navy blue, 'Blaze' lipstick, which is matte orange, 'Create' powder blusher, which I can see without bothering to swatch it is not going to suit me - too orange and too dark, and Intense Lipgloss in 'Twist' which is actually brown, so I know that won't suit me at all (again, I haven't even bothered to swatch it). 

The blush and the lipgloss are definitely not my colours, but I'm happy with the other items.  4 useable Illamasqua items for £38 isn't bad

I'm really happy, managed to buy 3 of the new Guerlain blushes on eBay, they are brand new testers and cost half the price of the normal products. They're full size, just without the fancy compacts. :) The seller also has one of the L'Extrait gloss testers, it's the colour I wanted to buy, still debating whether to buy it now or wait for the bidding to end to potentially save £4.
 

I've just tried the Estee Lauder 'Pearl Luminizer' lipstick over MAC Red Racer, and it's a winner!

The same can't be said for L'Oreal's Nude Magique BB Cream.  It comes out of the tube looking almost light grey with darker specks in it, and on application feels almost like a facial scrub.  I chose the one for 'Light Skin Tone' but it actually makes me look a couple of shades darker than usual, and showed up any slightly dry patches on my face as flaky, especially on my nose and cheek. It doesn't make my face feel dry otherwise, though.  I really had to blend away the line between my face and neck too.  I won't be using it again, and feel sad that I wasted £9.99.

ArtDeco's Dita Von Teese collection will be available in the UK from 20th August

I picked up a L'Oreal infallible shadow from ebay in Bronzed Taupe a USA shade, It arrived yesterday and I am wearing it today, its love! why is this shade not sold in the UK!

I don't have Bronzed Taupe, but I bought Endless Sea and Golden Emerald from the US (as well as Glistening Garnet) and they are all so lovely too. Temptalia did quite a bad review on Endless Sea, but I can't see what's wrong with it, it's pigmented, smooth and the colour is gorgeous.

I'm waiting for Endless Sea and Glistening Garnet to arrive from the US,  I do now have Purple Obsession and Permanent Kaki added to my collection lol.

I just read on the By Request thread that someone told them the collection is not coming to MAC UK.  I do hope that isn't true :(

I doubt it. If it comes to Europe, it will be available here too. But if not, I'm sure our friends in the Netherlands will be happy to CP it for us.

EDIT: I've just asked Mac and they said October. However, apparently we're not getting the Ruffian collections at all. I thought we were. Oh well.

Shame, I was hoping to pick up Ruffian Gold.  I have Ruffian Red from a swap but really loved the look of the Gold layered on top of it.

Definitely isn't.  The lady I spoke to yesterday said it would be October 4th.

Just went on live chat with MAC.

Welcome to MAC Cosmetics Online. Your personal Makeup Artist will be with you shortly.

Hello. Thank you for your interest in MAC Cosmetics. My name is Kate. How may I assist you?

Caitlin: Hi there!

Kate: Hi Caitlin,

Caitlin: I'm just wondering if you could tell me when the UK will be getting the By Request and Ruffian collections?

Caitlin: Oh and also the Marilyn if you know?

Kate: They will be out 4th Oct

Caitlin: So By Request, Ruffian and Marilyn all released Oct 4th?

Kate: Im just checking Marilyn one moment

Caitlin: Thank you

Kate: Yes they will all be out Oct

Caitlin: That's great - thank you so much! Have a great day!

Kate: You too

Kate: Thank you for visiting MAC Live Chat!

Looks like we're getting all 3!  If so - my wallet is DEAD.

How weird. I'll be interested to see if we are getting Ruffian in the end. :) I'd like the red one, but won't cry if we don't get it.

So if that's all October, do we know what's coming out in September? I'm not really up to date with Mac at the moment.

Not sure on September.

I'm working out roughly how much I'll be spending on those 3 collections... I'm looking at about £164 at the moment.

All 3 eye shadows from By Request, all 4 from Marilyn, both blushes from Marilyn, 1 lipstick from By Request, 1 from Marilyn and 1 from Ruffian.  Geez.  I don't remember the last time I made this big an order.  I'll start saving for it now, lol.

That's of course figuring eye shadows from BR are £12 and £12.50 from Mariyln for SP, Blushes being £18 for SP etc.  Geez.

I haven't even looked at the Marilyn collection. Probably won't want much, if anything, I'm not a fan of hers (don't dislike her, just don't like her enough to care). Unless the colours are very very special, I might not get anything.

I know what you mean - I'm not a fan of hers either but I want to diversify my collection more.  I don't have nearly as much as a lot of people on here.  Of course though, my opinions may change when I see swatches.  If I dislike swatches I won't purchase anything.

Thank you for checking :)  It would be so unfair if we didn't get By Request, especially after we had been allowed to vote.  I really hope we do get Ruffian, too, as I want the gold. I don't think I'd bother with the red as I have quite a few reds now, but the gold can be used with the ones I have got, and with other colours.  Estee Lauder, I believe, have a gold lipstick to wear over others, but I think it's £19.50 which is rather more than what MAC charge.

I want:

Ruffian Gold

Moxie

Rocker (possibly)

Cult Of Cherry

Flash Of Flesh

Jete

Moth Brown

The Marilyn BP

Possibly a Marilyn blush

Love Goddess

All 4 eyeshadows (depending on swatches)

Rather an expensive month, if I can actually afford them all

Yep, very expensive.  That's what bugs me about them all being released at once like this.  I won't buy anything for months and then have a huge list all of a sudden.

I'm always buying loads of make up, lol.

Lol - if I could afford it I would be too, trust me.

Tis why I've been scouring the sales on here.  Allows me to buy a bunch of the perm items without paying RRP.  I don't mind it being lightly loved.

I'm still waiting on that package from Aus though and I'm really beginning to worry they'll arrive broken, I'll have to pay customs or they won't arrive at all.  Nearly been a month.  :'(

I went shopping today. I saw the new Art Deco Ditta Von Teese collection out in Debenhams, it doesn't interest me at all, but I know Dawn was after it. I don't know if it's online yet.

I also went to House of Fraser and was told at the Mac counter that they only had 2 colours of the Electric Cool eyeshadows (the blue and purple), the rest were sold out. Of course they're still all available on the HoF website since they priced them at £19, lol.

I wanted to see the Dior fall collection, but it wasn't out yet, even though it's on the Debenhams website. Hohum.
