My blush ( Sunset Beach ) was manufactured in Italy by the way, I don't know if there are other units of production ? Mine is very finely milled, easy to build up. But some of you say it's a dry texture, and no pigmentation. The Dior blushes are manufactured in France or Italy, some Guerlain ones in Japan ( the Bubble ones ), some MAC products are manufactured in Italy too, others in the US, well

That's interesting, particularly with the shortage going on it would seem logical to produce in multiple locations and stagger the release in some. I was disappointed by T's review but alot of Specktrettes negated it so I am relieved and looking forward to getting mine. I saw the comments from T's readers and many were skipping due to her review - not me!

I too called Mac on Tuesday morning when I received sunset beach instead of ocean city and the lady I talked to was actually nice and said that they would ship ocean city out overnight and I would also get a refund and get to keep sunset beach, so then I came on here and read every ones horror stories and was completely confused. So today I called my Bloomingdales who is now holding an ocean city for me so I can go pick it up! I didn't wanna wait until Mac decided what they were doing with this mess, so hopefully they will give me a refund when I call again!

Got the same email from MAc. Since I really wanted OC, couldnt take the risk of waiting it out and then getting Out of Stock info. So called up MAC, processed a refund and got OC from MAcys. It was the last piece.

Sooooooo I called Mac Tuesday morning and the girl said I could keep the blush and she would send the correct one out as a one time courtesy. I didn't have my hopes up as Thai fiasco got bigger. Needless to say called today and they didn't ship it out lmao-- thanks for the update mac!! Anyone want to trade their OC for SB? Mine is brand new not swatched. USA. PM me :)

Yay! Thanks for your thoughts!! I did buy 4

, I was confident it would be a winner! Is it as opaque as Hoop for example? Some reviews said it wasn't a typical satin and had a bit of a frosty look- Temptalia's swatches looked abit sheer- does it feel like a Satin to you? Glad you are enjoying it and backed it up! I don't know how all 4 lippies are still available on Nordstrom.

I'm waiting on 2 more deliveries before I have it all couriered to Oz- so I'm estimating I'll be getting it all around the 5th of May. I am going to take a pic of my haul- it will be a mammoth one

Funnily enough, I saw Playland is available online here so I will see when stores get it so I can inspect the testers! What did you end up with and did you back up Red Balloon?

YES! On my lips it is opaque. Perhaps a touch less than hoop, since hoop really performs as a matte in terms of total coverage in one swipe, but pink fringe is definitely opaque. It can be applied sheerer though and built up which is quite nice if you don't want the full effect. There is a very slight touch of frost (barely there) now that you mention it, but I don't really find that it is evident on the lips. It is VERY slight and I probably wouldn't have even noticed it (at least in this lighting). It is really gorgeous, and you made a good call getting 4!

You much be so excited for your haul! YAY!

I ended up getting WAY to much! I definitely backed up red balloon many times over, along with sweet experience. Those were the winners for me! I seriously have to go on a lipstick hiatus for awhile---but I am so so happy with my new loves.

Cannot wait to see your haul and hear your thoughts!

Edit: Just did a comparison swipe. Pink Fringe is definitely sheerer than Hoop, but it is easily built up. And don't worry, you are going to love it anyway!
