MAC Selfridges has a bunch of the discontinued colours in stock. I picked up a couple and noticed they had half a drawer full but didn't take a note of what shades were available. Worth giving them a ring I think.
Hope this helps someone
For UK ladies looking out for a decent dupe, the Jemma Kidd (sp?) foundation brush is a good one. It's a short handle brush about the same size of the 187se. It's quite soft and cost's just over £10. It's stocked at Boots. HTH!!!
