I think it's crazy that read make-up heads know more about the collections then the people who work there. I went to the MAC counter at Nordstrom and was talking to one of the girls about TT and she didn't know anything about it. My BF was like you're a really MAC head because you were telling her stuff about the collection...
That's so true. There is so many instances where I find myself giving them information about collections coming. Could they really not know or are they just playing dumb? Hmm..

You might not need a BU if you'll never finish the IA one. Better to save the money for another lipatick. TBH I probably don't need 2 BU. The only other lipstick that I bought 3 of is CYY (1 from QC and 2 BU from BR). Then it became a permanent shade. LOL

Thinking of going to the counter and picking up a b/u of DA. I sold my LG backup, so don't need that. Might also pick up CIS since it's the only red I didn't get. Hmmm....

That makes me feel better.  I only have 1 from Iris Apfel and 2 BU from MM.  :haha:
I'm using a MM SI now, and have 3 MM and I IA BU!
yay ordered my scarlet ibis through the phone finally! the girl was so sweet to me! thank goodness they let me because the one by my job was like no you have to have a macys card -_- since when?
Since september. Hopefully the girl that let you won't get in trouble. It's their new anti-fraud policy. If you do a phone order, it HAS to be in a macys card only, or you have to be calling from another store and actually be there with any cc and a form of i.d.
There were definitely WOC here who enjoyed it. I didn't think so for me. I found it ashy and invisible. My brushes aren't good for pale blush though so I bought a new Tom Ford Cheek Brush and the story may be different.
I agree.

Give 'em hell Naughtyp! I remember last year girls were first in line at one door only to be beat out by folks who lined up elsewhere. This seems so much less chaotic though.

omg so Macy's was having a fire drill it was all the employees lol they scared me! I was first in line but I let a girl go ahead of me she was getting alot o stuff and she asked me what was the best items lol. I got DA bu for my mom and I caved and got SI! I almost got another FM but I didn't have enough $$$. the girl got all the lipsticks both blushes and little rock gloss. there was only 4 ppl total in line lol and one of the girls working said she didn't even kno MM was coming back out lol. I woke up at 930 and only waited 10 minutes outside, compared to last time I was up at 6!and waited in line for over an hour outside Nordies. hope very one gets what they want this time!!

So I was there when they opened, and one other MAC addict was there lol. And I know this because she asked me if I was a MAC addict too LMAO. She was actually really nice, and we chatted about Marilyn and RiRi Woo and the MUA let us peek at Temperature Rising. If she's a MAC addict she might be here, so if she is Hi fellow MAC addict who was in the store buying lipsticks for her friends and asked to follow me on Instagram! :)

I bought:

Scarlet Ibis +backup
Deeply Adored
Charmed, I'm Sure
Love Goddess

And I bought Legendary blush even though I wasn't going in for it. It is too dang pretty.

I got everything I wanted.

Deeply Adored
Love Goddess
Charmed I'm Sure
Beauty Powder Forever Marilyn

There was not alot of people there actually just me and another girl. It was easy but one of the workers was giving so much attitude, she was telling me how the Marilyn Collection was the ugliest she has ever seen and has no idea why Mac would bring it back. SMH

I just called my nearest store and asked if they received a lot of stock for MM &she said they did and they haven't sold out. I might just go stop by and pick up legendary + a SI backup (even though I haven't received my first yet...it should be here next week.) There may be hope for everyone, your stores may have gotten enough stock to last a little while!

So I limited myself on this collection since I got what I wanted w/ the original release and got my very first SI since I passed on it last time & a LG for my daughter. I was really debating on TPC but I was good & only got the two lippies. I was there when they opened and there was only 1 other lady waiting for the MM stuff but when they put the display out, all the girls from the other cosmetics counters came over to look & ask for stuff for themselves lol I even saw one of the Sephora girls there getting in on the MM stuff :)
