My friend stopped by a MAC counter today and said they had the collection out to see, but not available to buy until tomorrow.  Doesn't matter to me since I already have my stuff from ordering online, but it's weird that some are releasing it earlier than others.  They do so love to keep us on our toes...

Its not uncommon for stores to change dates and to release before counters.

I was able to pick up everything at the store today. I was told by their employees last week that they would realase a day earlier at the store and thee did. Not a lot of traffic in store today.

For those of you that have seen Ripe for Love, does it lean orange? I have yellow undertones and peaches can pull orange on me.

OMG! OMG! OMG! i was just freaking out! A bit over an hour ago i noticed i had a text msg on my phone... it was from MAC... it was about Temperature Rising... and in my experience, MAC never sends msgs out early. So i immediately phoned my local MAC and asked if the collection was out today. Yes, they said, to compete with Nordstrom.

OMG! OMG! OMG! I nearly passed out! What if the stuff i wanted was already gone! But the SA assured me they'd had little traffic on the collection, so i jumped in my car and raced down there (not breaking any speed limits, though). And stood panting at the register.

(OK, OK, there's a little hyperbole in this story)

Turned out they had EVERYTHING in stock. So i got what was on my list. Whew! I nearly fainted when i heard the total $$, but i'm not planning to buy much from collections in June or July (2 or 3 from AAO, 1 or 2 from TT), so i think my bank account will recover.

I'll try things on tomorrow. I swatched everything on my arm last week, but how they look on my lips and eyes and cheeks may be a different story.

So so glad you got your stuff. I would have been in absolute panic mode. I don't know why they do this. This is why it is so hard to resist ordering online and skipping in store purchases. I would have been so mad to go in Thursday and find everything sold out because they released it early.

ok soooo i broke down n got BMS!! i can tell u off first impressions its NOT like the smoked palette!! BMS is more softer vs the SP is darker n richer!!
NO!! u dnt need both. i went in with the intentions on gettin SD but it was too light for my complexion n went with NOB!! i'd totally get caliente over SS!!

ok yall...so i went to nordies to get my stuff. funny people still thinkin the coll drops tomorrow cuz it was nice n quiet in there today!! maybe not all the counters dropped em early today
shrugs.gif
but anyhoo...this is why i like to wait til shyt drops at the counter to swatch shyt for myself. i had every intention to getFMP but i swatched it wit UTA and umm yea...they dmn near like twinsies soooo i skipped it. i got:

Caliente and Underdressed-honestly i dnt think u need BOTH but i didnt want skippers remorse n they kinda go hand in hand. if u want to be more bold then caliente is IT but if u want a softer subtle lip underdressed is it. i plan on usin UD w/a plum liner. its soooo gorgeous in person its ridick!!

RFL-a muuuust for sure!

NOB-this is my first official mac bronzer n really i just wanted it for the compact but it feel so good on the face n i noticed the subtle glow!

gold elixir-thank GAWD when i combo'd this w/NOB i didnt look like tinkerbell wiped her azz on my face!!

liquid passion-i've been lookin for the perfect nude gloss n these arent as tacky as they normally are. i wanna pair it w/peachstock or honey love!!

BMS-i really did NOT want to like this phkn $44 quad and was hopin i had somethin similar in my stash but ummm i dnt. its soooo gorgeous and pics do this thing NO JUSTICE!! if nothing else this quad is another must have. not even the green color but the light colors are to die for too.

my mua tried to get me into the pencils which...dnt get me wrong are gooorgeous!! the brown one reminds me of nars mekong but im just not a shade stick kinda gal. im REALLY happy w/my purchases and these are perfect for the summer bronze look!! this is the first time in a loooong time i can actually say MAC did a good job! nooooow whats next

I hope that people don't misunderstand and have a heart attack thinking that this collection launched early (i.e., yesterday) everywhere because it did not. It launched a day early in MAC stores, but at counters it still launches today. There may have even been a counter or two that launched it early but they would be an extreme exception and I don't know how they'd even allow that. I think someone else clarified all of this in a previous post in this thread. So, if you'd plan to buy at a counter, you are good.

Can anyone swatch Style Curve, Up the Amp and Feel My Pulse? I have a feeling that FMP is maybe a twin to SC.
