I tried all the ones I could think of and none of them worked. So I gave up. I would have liked free express.

Me too.
I just did an online chat and they sent me a free shipping code. Try that if you still need one.

I REALLY don't "get" the whole "COMING SOON" crap MAC keeps doing when it posts these new collections!
IV and Dynamo taking FOREVERRRRR to post online with the Electric Cool Collection, even though every other retailer had them in stock. NOW this WAITING on a few eyeshadows and blushes to appear for Office Hours... What ends up happening is LOST interest.
How can a brand new collection not have all it's items when it launches? And other MAC sites have them (ie Canadian PRO site)?
I'm just confused. Was really ready to order several of these items when they popped up on PRO, but now I have placed 2 orders and not 1 thing from OH has been in my carts!
Guess I'll just wait for some more swatches and see what happens and how interested I feel again...

I got my order this morning, keep in mind that I haven't tested anything on my face yet.
Stubborn blush is a pinky plum shade, it's almost matte (very natural satin finish). It's nicely pigmented and the texture is very soft!
Fashion Fix eye shadow might be too similar to Coquette, but I don't have it near me right now to compare them. It's not as pigmented as I though it would be, kinda sheer. And matte.
Ever Ivory eye shadow seems to be lighter than Brule, but like I said I can't compare them. It's matte, and not very well pigmented. It looks kinda sheer and very powdery. Not really nice, so far.. will have to try it on my lids because the skin on my hands is dry so it doesn't stick much anyway. It might be similar to Blanc Type, but BT is much better.
Seriously, it's not that great so far, except for the blush. I might change my mind once I get a chance to really try them on my face, but if I was in the store and swatched them on my hands only, I wouldn't have purchased the eye shadows.

tell me about it! I wound up placing an order online and getting IV and Dynamo from my store. They stayed that way for two weeks iirc.

- Linger Softly Light frosted grey blue

Ooooh. I am so jealous Dilligaf! Those are the shadows I am aiming for. Please let us know how they are when wearing. I'm also very interested in Linger Softly.
I didn't even think of using them as blushes as well. Oooooh.

I was hoping so much that they would work as blushes too.
Now I am even more excited!!!

All's I've gotten so far is Whole Lotta Love. PrettyKitty you have me worried about the texture of Ever Ivory! I wanted a close but matte cousin to Creamy Bisque, I'll have to check it out in person to see what I think! I hope WLL is different enough from LoveCloud, though!

Duckrodeo, I think you would have loved Blanc Type! I don't own Creamy Bisque, but I can tell by looking at the swatches that Ever Ivory is no where near as opaque.

That's a good idea, you think they'll let me b2m an eyeshadow from office hours since they're going to be perm now? I want mauveless but it didn't let me add to Cart.I'll def consider that! Thanks for the suggestion. I'm also glad it's perm! I'm going to B2M for Mehr and Double Shot, I'll have to check out BT when I make the trip to my local store and maybe add that to my bag
