I did the same thing lol. I have my Nordies from the site & then my Nordies store is holding my other 3 to pick up tomorrow. Quick gratification - I can't wait! I thought for sure Nordies online was going to cancel something out of my order, but its all good.

So funny, our Nordies is making my favorite soup at their cafe just for us

They normally have it in the middle of the week, but they told us if I ever want it on Sat. to just call. Plus, they reserve a special table for us until we get there. So crazy how good they are to us. Its always such a fun time. Going to look at the new Chanel tomorrow too.

Package so gorgeous I even kept the boxes!
Right! I love the Giambattista boxes. They are so pretty and representative of the designer, but MAC could have put some more effort into the actual bullets. I like the idea of them being color coded, but I wish the actual material had more substance to it.

Same here. I didn't even choose a sample because it jumped to another screen and I didn't want to try to go back. It's bad when you buy a lipstick that u don't want because it won't let u remove it.
That's crazy that you couldn't remove it! I was lucky, I chose a sample then changed it for a different one, but I contemplated just abandoning the sample as it took a few seconds and I was worried. Ironically things went very well for me and my order has shipped, so really it was just perfect timing, and since I missed the Nordies launch, I am pretty happy!

Here is to a fun day!
I went to nordstrom yesterday but it was kind of late and it wasnt crowded. So the SA took it upon herself to show me all the new stuff. This brand is awesome, that set is a must have.......I literally ran out!! I have to go again this weekend (and make sure to hide from her)!! Anything i take to swatch, she followed around with a brush and want to apply it
nope.gif
ummmmm no thanks!!

Forgive me if someone has already asked this but is Margherita close to BBW Bermise Kiss?
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooo. Burmese Kiss is deeper in pigment and brighter (if that makes sense). Not LIGHT, but bright. And it's definitely more coral (and a tinge rosy on me) than peach or orange. Totally different color.

noo not at all! burmese kiss is more of a red coral. its closest to sushi kiss I think! just different finishes and a tad darker.
Thanks so much. I was debating and couldn't get my second order to go through yesterday so I called and had the store hold it for me today. Since it's different than BK it might be worth a buy

So how was the mac online aunch of this collection? I skipped it But I want some insight for future releases.
Absolute freaking nightmare!! The new site couldn't handle the web traffic and it was slow and buggy. Taking between 30 mins to an hour to complete the process. At one point I had 4 Bianca B's in my cart and it took me a good 10 minutes to get the cart to remove them. The site was timing out as well. It was ridiculous!
