So ladies and gents, if you missed out or wanted to buy a backup, start stalking your CCO!!! 

Yay!  So glad you found it :)  I'm totally jealous!!  ;)

Yeah, I was kicking myself because I was holding onto one on the day the collection launched and then gave it back to the SA. By the time I realized I wanted it, it was sold out everywhere. I guess it all works out b/c at least I didn't have to pay full price for it.

EDITED to add that I also found Pink Popcorn as well.

but i just did a swap for it on MUA a few days so i'm stoked for that to come.
I need to find someone in the Vancouver area to go to the CCO in tulalip, WA with me though :P

Wow that's awesome....People are selling Heroine for 100 bucks on ebay and you have found one in your CCO for 10 bucks *tears* i wish ours would have that lipstick out here!!!! *SIGHS*

I hope my local CCO has cool stuff on friday as I might have to swing by and check it out.

I almost bought it when it was out too but my friend was all that is so not your color when I swatched the tester. I'm not sure if I could pull it off but if I can wear YR then I would think so lol. I'm glad you were able to fix your skipper's remorse. May I ask which CCO it was that had all this cool stuff? Thx!

My CCO generally sucks, but I'm going on Saturday, and will let you know what I found.

Unfortunately, I was at the Fashion Outlets of Las Vegas (located in Primm, NV/Stateline). It's a bummer b/c I wanted to buy so much more than I did but didn't want to spend all the money right away. I guess it's another incentive for me to drive instead of fly to Vegas.

Lol just because i want to feel satisfied i was able to get it for 10 bucks lol

I think it depends on the CCO. I can bet that my local CCO won't get it in for A LONG TIME if at all, but the one I went to seemed to have a lot of traffic and was better stocked than any of my local CCOs. 

princess/ ohsojaded, hope you don't mind, just wonder whether you would do cp heroine (like $20-25) if you manage to get extra...., sorry if I ask too much.

p/s : pleasant, i just came back from cco, tulalip (9/30), they do not have heroine....that time. not many new staff ,which includes violetta, snowglobe....., you probably can call them before you go.

I just saw Heroine on a girl's lips and it was gorgeous . It doesn't look that pretty from the tube.. but man it was gorgeous on her! I wasn't around for this collection.. so I'm screwed. My closest CCO is around 2 hrs away... I'll call when I'm in the area in a few weeks! I'll keep my fingers crossed.

this is usually where the temptation begins (the swatches), I really admire their lips, those lipsticks when applied on look so stunning, better than what we see on tube. 

I am tempted to get one as well, after seeing how the make up is put on (as seen in xiranox's blog )

I wish I could CP one for you, but I found it while i was on vacation and that CCO is almost 5 hours away. If I run into it at a CCO closer to home, I would be more than happy to pick one up for you.

I am going to try and go this Saturday also.  I wanted to go last weekend, but stupid car needed brakes, alignment and tires.  That unfortunately took a lot of cash from the Make up budget, but maybe I can soothe that pain with some discount stuff from my CCO.  You know of course if I find Heroine I will buy as many as I can!  I am wondering if there will be Reel Sexy and some of the csg I missed.  I wonder if there as anything else that was a must have from this collection?

The eye kohls were all fantastic! I think some of them are still on the MAC website, though. Resort is particularly nice - a mid-tone plum/purple with just the right texture, soft but not smudgey. Heirloom is one of the very few light colored pencils that actually stays in my waterline, too.

Which lippies are you looking for? 

Please ignore the post. I am good on the lippies now.

I will keep an eye out for those, I think I scored a Heirloom off the clearance bin here, but I will check out Resort.  I am still loving Industrial based on your last recommendations so when you say you really like something (esp. eye product) I pay attention!  (Same with MAC Guy and his powder product recs!!!)

people are selling heroine on ebay for $50-60 :@
