MAC X The Return of Marilyn Monroe Collection Discussion (2013)

I am loving everything so far. I don't usually buy backups sight unseen (just online swatches), but I'm really glad I did! I don't have these colors in my stash (except Scarlet Ibis) because I used to shy away from red lipsticks, but that changed this year. I will have to say LG is my favorite out of the four I've tried, followed closely by SI, then a tie between CIS and DA.

I don't normally backup blushes either, but no regrets at all. Both blushes look so lovely!

And last but not the least... I was afraid FM would look ashy on me, but it actually looks nice.

Looking forward to receiving Pure Zen, Little Rock, and Phiff!

I think I might as well order the lip pencils. I know they're permanent, but I don't own any red l/p from MAC.

So my package has been sitting in my post office the whole time. I wish they would just deliver it I mean I live in walking distance of the post office.

I just want my stuff to play with. I'm not a big fan of ordering from Macy's now...

I got my package today and 1 of the 2 lipsticks i ordered came out of the packaging. I got scared that once opened it would be damaged but it looked fine. I followed Erine's advice and carefully opened both of the lipsticks to make sure there wasn't any damage and glad to say there wasn't... but I did notice that 1 of them seemed to have more product than the other (they are both DA). Anyways i'm happy they came undamaged and not melted but really am disappointed with Macy's packaging. They could've done a better job. It's just a box with paper and at the bottom of the box was the merchandise with no extra packaging for cushion which i assume was the reason why one of the lipsticks came out of the box....? Ah well....won't be ordering from them any time soon unless it's extra special

Hope you get your order soon! I've only ordered from Macy's 3x (2x for MM). Their standard shipping is rather slow (compared to MAC or Nordstrom), but I must say I'm impressed with their CS. I recently had to call Macy's regarding my last order because I received an email confirmation that I ordered 2 Little Rock when I wanted to order 1 Little Rock and 1 Phiff. I thought maybe I messed up, so I called to see if I can correct that. She said it was a known system error and confirmed I was getting 1 Little Rock and 1 Phiff, then she offered me $10 credit applied to that order "for the inconvenience". I was surprised because I didn't call to complain or anything, but I was very happy about that. She was super nice too! (I can't say the same for Nordstrom. They weren't very pleasant last time I was on the phone with them. I don't need a $10 credit like Macy's did. Just be less bitchy nice! That said, I will probably still order more from Nordstrom because I want the points and the fast free shipping.) The only thing I don't really like with Macy's (aside from their shipping method) is their packaging. Not a fan of bubble mailer when I order mid-high end cosmetics.

Hey, at least you got a box.

I ordered 8 lipsticks, 4 blushes, and 2 beauty powders, and they were all shipped in a large bubble mailer!

The items arrived intact though, so it's all good.

Thanks, I hope I get it soon as well! I really don't like how slow their shipping is. I'm extremely worried that my lipsticks will definitely be melted due to being in transit in this South Florida heat (its been 90 degrees for a few days straight). The sooner they get here, the less I will worry.

can you please stop posting the links to YOUR own listings. It's fucking annoying!


I had a bit of a freak out moment there! Then I went and searched Brooklyngirl's posts and saw what happened in Archie's!

Surely there are other sellers that are doing this but to only post the same one each and every time is very fishy!

Yes, I apologize for using the F word. It just happens for All collections, same user, same eBay account .. Same location. It just irritates me
