MAC x Proenza Schouler (April 24, 2014)

[BrainsAndBeauty]

Crap, this lack of PRO discount is really throwing me!  First of all, I didn't really expect this to be up when I woke up this morning for some reason.  And secondly, since I thought the discount applied, it was a no brainer, but now that it's NOT applying, idk if I can justify spending $30 on a blush I seriously do not need right now!!  And I know I need to make a decision FAST!

I know how you feel. That caused me to hesitate, too. However, I knew that if I didn't grab the items I wanted, I would have non-buyer's remorse.

Pardon my French but thats fucking gorgeous :eyelove: I always wonder what cameras people use to get those really crisp pictures of their eye makeup.

Anxiety had me up til 7am... didn't even think to check for this.

I got the lippies I wanted. Ocean city is on backorder. I'll check the stores this week.

Ok, so I woke up at 6:30 a.m. checked my email, saw the collection had launched, placed an order and proceeded to get out of bed and take a shower. I just realized I placed an order for Sunset beach and not ocean city #fail

I'll be checking out the stores too. I'll message you if they have extras at my two counters.

Has anyones mac overnight order been processed??

I'm in Canada & mine has not been processed (it's express here) I emailed them because I'm a spaz lol I order from Mac a lot a lot lol & usually There's a bit of a delay between the actual processing and updating online. I expect to see an email tomorrow saying that my order has been shipped and out for delivery. (As previous experience recently would lead me to believe) Will update when I know my status if anyone in Canada is curious though

Thanks in advance for any help

Girl DONT BE!! what brush do you use for your blushes? a light hand also helps.

Did any of my fellow NC30's order Sunset Beach? I only ordered Ocean City so far but I'm slightly lemming SB!

Thank you

I have a smash box blush brush (standard size for blush) & I also have a Lancôme blush brush (the one that's dual ended with one side for highlighter) neither of them impress me but I make due. I'd really like a new blush brush but I haven't been able to decide on one. Which do you recommend?

Well if you want to save money. i have been loving the Real Techniques Blush Brush. its Very Fluffy. i use it with the pigmented blushes that i have. i luv it with the briar rose bp which is very cool tone and pink. im warm tone.

if you want something more expensive the Nars yachiyo brush is very Good! i have it but for now im loving the RT ones.

My response to that is that I look at my makeup purchases as health care spending. Being able to create certain looks with makeup I really like makes me happy. And being happy makes me a better friend, daughter, sister, wife, etc. I study harder at school, I work harder, I'm more likely to go to my workout. It's no different than spending money on a fishing trip or a new video game or whatever it is that makes different people happy. If you spend so much money that you're stressed out about finances, then it's having the opposite effect and you need to cut back. But little presents for yourself to make you happy are important Like my husband may not understand why I jump up and down when a lipstick comes in the mail, but I'm sure he enjoys me being in a good mood all day lol I think friends who get condescending are just confused. Like they don't understand why you do something and they don't really know why it bothers them. I'm sure she just wishes she had makeup like that too, in fact, she'll probably see how much you like it and come around, maybe even say sorry (we can hope right?) Like my family doesn't like makeup, but they get why I do, so they're cool with it. Oh and brands like MAC and UD are investments. It's better makeup and it will last longer and have more pigmentation (making it last even LONGER). So in the long run you're not REALLY spending more. If you buy a bad lipstick and have to reapply it twenty times a day, you should have saved money and bought the MAC lipstick that stays on for 7 hours and never goes bad! SOMETIMES the cheap option is the better option, but not when we're talking MAC lipsticks or the UD naked palettes!

I really love the Yachiyo but I've never seen it anywhere. I was looking at the RT brushes online today after watching YouTube reviews on them. I think I'll try the RT blush brush then thanks so much for the recommendation!

Ah okay thanks. I've read/heard about some who have had order fails and was getting scared for a minute

I wanted to skip this collection, and I tried... but it was nagging at me all day! I noticed I had some Nordstrom Notes on my account, so I placed an order for both blushes. They are on back order for 5/2, but I can wait. I just hope it doesn't get cancelled.

 

[Ajigglin]

I've got 14 pages to read! Hope you all got everything you wanted!

I was the same way. I really was not going to get a thing but after seeing swatches on nikkitutorials page of one of the blushes I knew I had to have it.
