Seeing other coll from february got some restock I thinking maybe they got returs from their stores.

post #1984 of 2134

Unbelievable that they restocked the Iris lipsticks icon_eek.gif

 

I think that no one reckoned that this would happen....

Hi there! I know this thread was kinda buried, but I just wanted to share! I'm in Brazil and we got Iris Apfel this past month! yay! I was able to get Party Parrot today (the last one in store). They still had Flamingo, but I already got that one. the only downside is having to pay $40 for it :(

Me too...I have been using all of them a lot since I got them.

 

Especially Party Parrot which is my favorite out of the bunch.

For those that missed out on Party Parrot, I found a great dupe!! Pretty much identical aside of the finish.

I found a lipstick called Flamingo in M&S. I think my brain just wants them to be similar. Here's a swatch (it swatches sheerer but I built it up):

That color is beautiful!  It does look a little similar, but more pigmented than Flamingo :)  This may be a dumb question, but what is M & S? LOL

Marks & Spencer, it's a big retailer in the UK. Sells a bit of everything!

I would pay $40 in a heart beat lol

 

Sucks that they are so much though. I would hate to pay that much for a lipstick all the time.

I KNOW!!  At this point, Flamingo is going for close to $100 on ebay!!  $40 would seem like a steal to someone wanting it THAT bad! 

post #2000 of 2134

I would NEVER pay that much for a lipstick or lipglass. 

 

I usually put my l/s or l/g in my small bag or pocket for the night.  Sometimes I just can't keep up with it AND my dang phone.  LOL!

 

  Definitely wouldn't run the risk of losing it at that price. holysheep.gif

You haven't used them yet!?  Or you just mean you need to use them again?

It's Spring baby!  ROCK those bright lips!

I need to find a reason to wear Party Parrot!!!  I love that lipstick now!  It used to scare the hell out of me!

 I haven't used Scarlet Ibis on my lips yet. As for Party Parrot and Pink Pigeon, need to use them again as well as Flamingo. Party Parrot is so pretty with NYX Fuchsia lip liner! I was thinking what if MAC did lip liners of the lipsticks in this collection? That would be SO AWESOME!

Buy two, sell one on ebay for $80 and your money back.  Not that I am advocating that.  I still have not used my SI and thinking of getting scads of money on ebay is tempting, however.  At the point the e-bay price exceeds the amount it takes to dupe the lipstick at one of those custom color companies  is the point where I balk.  Can't you pay for a dupe for about $30 or $35???

to me reselling MAC is immoral. one thing is buying compulsively or then u stop using a product and then swapping or maybe here but doing it for profit....is ridiculous.

haha, I remember when you were feeling terrified to try it! 'Glad you love it - it's my #1 favorite from 2012, so far, and the competition has been so fierce too!

Wow, $100?? That's ridiculous. I'm amazed that color is so highly prized. I wear mine a lot for day time, because it's cute and convenient, but I didn't back it up and I won't feel sad when I've finished my tube - there'll be another "latest, greatest" spring lipstick next year and so on and so on.
