It's not the first time. The 167SH from Hey Sailor was €40 on Mac's site and €37 everywhere else and the Volcanic Ash Exfoliator was also one euro more on Mac's site. If I order online I also prefer douglas, but if de bijenkorf has something and douglas and my counter are sold out I use the pick up in store option from de bijenkorf and that's free. I haven't orderd from Mac's site yet, but I will soon when By Request comes out.
Whaah, WHY?! It's so stupid.

I've got my Rocker so I'm skipping the rest of BR! It took about a week before I received my package when I ordered HC goodies from MAC's website, it took so long compared to Douglas and Bijenkorf..

 Hidden Treasure would look great on you. I have to be super light with it.

I think you should consider HT especially if it would be unique in your collection. It has this pretty shimmer quality to it that I noticed when I swatched it in store the day I bought it. It's really really pretty. I have to use a light hand with it but I really like it.

 OK I will have to get it if it's still on Nordstrom's website by next week or I can wait until MAC restocks it online.

 You think so? Even though I have never owned a blush like that before in my blush collection.

i don't have WW (...yet!) but i was wearing HT with SC....I found HT good on it's own, and it helped SC somehow too....

Oy, I didn't realize Camden Chic sold out already! 

 

Any chance of a restock? My cousin loved mine and I promised to get her one, haha. OOOOOPS! 

 

Or, if anyone bought it and doesn't like it, please PM me. Thanks!

I just noticed that the mineralize blushes of HC were/are also more expensive on MAC's website. When I ordered it I already thought it was weird that the blushes were €23,50 instead of the normal €22,50.. I'm going to pay a lot more attention to the prices from now on.

All I did was dab my contour blush brush ever so lightly in the pan and it was enough to apply the color to both cheeks! I layered HT with Star Wonder, buffed it out and used Lightscapade as a highlight! It's a great subtle rosey cheek look that's great for entering Fall! :-)

That sounds pretty! What l/s did u wear with it?

I originally I thought I didnt need supercontinental becuase I have immortal flower until i saw this...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZuhrFmWiy38  It is beautiful on her. She is probably one of the funniest bloggers I have seen.

 I got it. It was far pinker in person on my NW15 self than the bloggers pictures showed. It wasn't complete Magda lips like Mlle but it is still quite a pale pink.

Genn,

 

Thanks for posting! She is hilarious!

That sounds very nice.FF is the only mattene from this collection I am still debating on.And I would love to have light pink

mattene!Seems as if FF is exactly what I am looking for.

 

Thank you mousygiggles!

I wore SC today with a dash of pressed amber and glorify buffed on top. (On eyes I wore a nude shadow with sassy grass on the outer corner, and bit of black liner. budding beauty on lips.)

Aradhana, did you find SC powdery? I swatched it in-store with a brush and it kicked up a surprising amount of powder. :(

well, it is a lot softer than any of the other mac blushes i own. it's more like a nars blush in that respect.  i didn't find i had fall-out on my cheeks or anything however....

i suspect i'll go through the product more quickly of course (assuming i use the same blush regularly  amuse.gif)

Glam HT is BEAUTIFUL & it would look so great on you :)

post #1704 of 2088

My Eden Rouge shipped today. Yay, I hope it arrives soon. I haven't hauled much from this collection but I love everything I have gotten. So far I have HT, LW, CC, and will have ER soon.

Who's been enjoying Delectable?cheerleader.gif

 

Last year's version was too dry and chalky looking for me and I didn't get it. But this year, it's much creamier and maybe even a little less pale? It looks like a really sexy peachy nude with a brownish cast - not too light, either (it feels like last year's was whiter and lighter??). It even leaves a really beautiful smooth nude stain when it starts fading or if you blot, that sort of looks as if Salute! and Cusp of Dawn had a matte baby. I took some photos, but I had to use flash and I couldn't capture the color properly.

 

I guess you can say this is one example where the next year's batch is better than the original!

So true - best one of the bunch for me, even if WW is more unique. love.gif

I thought the texture was too chalky and flat looking, like most of last year's light mattenes. It was a nice shade, but also pretty dupeable. Double Spin is pretty similar, just a little pinker, but FF isn't as grey bone nude as Restrict.

post #1708 of 2088

Thank you liba!

 

I have Double Spin and really like it...a "mattene version" would be nice.But a "chalky look" is not nice at all!!!

If you can see it in person first, maybe the texture will work for you - it almost did for me, but not quite, especially since Delectable was plenty awesome and less like things I already had. FF didn't make my lips look bad, but that texture made my skin look tired. I think it'd work better with younger skin.

post #1710 of 2088

So I am the only one not having any luck with WW and HT? :/
