Okay so I went to my Mac store today. I was just planning to check out mangrove, and sunset beach. Mangrove was a bit too bright for me. The MA convienced me to try Pink Fridge, and I loved it! I was so surprised! I dont normally like light pinks, they tend to look really chalky on me, but PF wasn't! I ended up also buying Sunset Beach. It was super pigmented! It is beautiful! Again pinks aren't normally my thing, so I was pleasantly surprised when I liked it! They only had one more SB after I bought mine, and 2 or 3 more OC. I didn't get to try the nude lipstick cause the MA said that someone came in yesterday and bought 9 of them!!! WHAT?! My guess is evilbayer! Who buys 9 nude lipsticks?! I really thought I was gonna get OC in my box today since my box was re-routed and sent back to the warehouse. It even looked like someone opened it, and re-sealed it. Lo and behold I had SB!! I was SO not happy! Now I have 2 SBs and I could have bought OC when I was at the MAC store today! ARGH :mad: SO not happy about that! The Mac store is 45 minutes away, and I don't feel like driving all the way back down there fighting a cold, & 3 kids in tow. I called Mac as soon as I got home, and she was really nice. Basically said what everyone else has been told. I will get a call back next week about what is being done. I told her I now have 2 SB's thinking I was getting OC today in the mail. She apologized for my inconvenience. At least she was nice. It just burns me that I could have gotten OC today while I was at the store!! BOO!!! :aargh:

Too bad about OC. I'm sure you'll be able to get one.

Right...9 nude ls...we know what's going on there.

THIS is one of the major problems in production.. the mattes/retromattes can come out of the tubes very easily.. Do not store upside down.. they just fall out quicker.
Totally! I'm sure the fact that it was shipped in a bubble mailer only loosened it further. I know it's wasteful to use boxes excessively (like Nordstrom does) but if the product is already faulty maybe it helps? I sent an email to Macy's. We'll see what happens...

Just a bubble mailer

yeah, those don't work with shipping makeup especially blushes. Thats really dumb. Most of the time when I get a yellow mailer, it either has a dirty footprint or something that looks like tire tracks on it. uggh

This is me wearing Pink Fringe & Sunset Beach. I apologize for the horrible lighting, I rarely take selfies. I just wanted to show how beautiful PF & SB are! I was totally going to skip those 2, I'm so glad I didn't! Oh By the way, I lined my lips lightly with chestnut lip liner.

Bubble Mailers Work when you wrap the product with Bubble Wrap FIRST! i cant believe some companies don't even know how to ship products.

If you live near a Macy's and it has a Mac counter, you can return or exchange it in store using the packing slip. I ordered Ocean City from Macy's and won't get it until Monday but I just have a feeling my blush is going to be in pieces.
