I went to my local MAC store and have confirmed reports that the paints are being discontinued. Sorry if everyone knows this already, but I thought people would like to know!

Yeah I heard they were slowly going to be weeding the paints out to replace them with the paint pots.

I also have had a few chats with MAC LIVE CHAt and they say that a few colors are being disontinued but not all. Most stores will tell you that they are but i think that they are jsut assuming.....I might add that when i got married like over 2 years ago the MA that was doing my Make-up was saying that there were threats of them being discontinued. Either way I plan on stocking up on Stilife.....my total fav.
Well...here is a copy of my recent Live chat:
info: Welcome to MAC Cosmetics Online. One of our Artists will be with you shortly.
info: Hello. Thank you for your interest in MAC Cosmetics. My name is Andrea. How may I assist you?
Desiree: Hi Andrea....I was told that the paints will now be discontinued due to the new paint pots. I LOVE stilife and untitled and this would be awful. Is it true?
Andrea:[SIZE=+0] Hi Desiree![/SIZE]
Andrea:[SIZE=+0] One moment while I check on that for you.[/SIZE]
Andrea:[SIZE=+0] Thank you for your patience. At this time there is not information stating that all paints will be discontinued. There have been a few shades discontinued but Stilife is still available.[/SIZE]
Desiree: What about Untitled?
Andrea:[SIZE=+0] Not being discontinued.[/SIZE]
Desiree: Awesome. Thank you.
Andrea:[SIZE=+0] You're welcome![/SIZE]

hmm...Bare Canvas was "sold out, find stores" on the website the other night, and I'd wondered if it's real similar to the Painterly Bare Study & might be being phased out in the Paint format.
I love both, too, and would need to hoard some Stillife and Untitled, at the very least.

Do you remember what the other one was?
That makes me sad, an MA in the LJ mac_cosmetics comm said they specifically asked at update and none of the paints were being d/c'ed.

| me: are they going to discontinue more paint colors? Amy: They might eventually. However, the more popular Paints they'll keep. Amy: I'm not sure which shades those are, I imagine it being: STILIFE, BARE CANVAS or UNTITLED. |

I wouldn't say they're alike at all...I did a swatch for the two in the specktra swatch thread.

Artifact is very similar to Cranberry in color. Artifact is a burgundy/plum with red pearl, and Flamable is a more pigmented true red, and it looks more matte then Artifact does.
