Anyways, yeah I went when the forum was down and bought the HK BP in Tahitian Sand cause I want the compact lol I want the Kitty Kouture one too, but not sure if I want to drop $30 just for the packaging. I think I'd rather use that $$ towards getting Conjure Up & Superdupernatural!

I just moved out here and discovered the one in Cypress--it is a good distance from my house but soooo worth it. They had all sorts of brushes, a few I had just bought the week before. I like that they have a big selection of foundations and stuff--perfect for the makeup artist. I got the train case and the last brush roll--yay!!

I want to go back soon to get brushes and other little things--the lady said they get their mac shipments towards the end of the month so get ready ladies.
 
Re: Houston (Cypress), TX CCO (Houston Premium Outlets)

Re: Houston (Cypress), TX CCO (Houston Premium Outlets)

I just stopped by the CCO today. They had better selections of eyeshadows, surprisingly.

Eyeshadows: Solar white, silverthorn, Et tu Bouquet?, Sugar shot, Blue Flame (not from the style black), Go, Glamour Check, Femme Fi in regular and neo sci fi packaging.
No style warriors stuff. They still had lemon chiffon shadestick, and i think one more from the SS collection. They also had the 3 holiday palettes from last year, Tempting and Shadowy Lady quads, and I saw one of the Heatherette palette in a glass display.

Pigments: Milk, Blonde's Gold, Lovely Lily, Heritage Rouge, Transparent Teal Glitters, etc

Blushes: Strada, Emote, Fun n Games (No Tippy), Blooming, Harmony, Earth to Earth, Grand Duo mineralize blushes, and couple others more. No Rose Romance blushes.

MSFs: Lots of Petticoat, Refined, and one more that i cant remember.

Lipsticks/lipglosses: All three lip stains from Rose Romance, pinkarat, and the rest of their stuff were still pretty much the same as mentioned above. I think i saw more Viva Glam lipsticks, though. Oh, some Hello Kitty lipsticks were there too.

Brushes: 226(!!!), 217, and the rest are still the same as before.

Others: Black Russian & Molasses pearlglides, Perky & Silver (don't remember the name) paintpots

I'll edit if i remember more stuff. HTH!

Hi Ladies, I am planning a trip to this CCO, and I am traveling from Louisiana. If anyone has made a recent trip or goes before the New Year, please post what you find. I am trying to see how much cash I will need for my haul. Thanks!

Re: Houston (Cypress), TX CCO (Houston Premium Outlets)

I just went on the 11th and they pretty much had all the itams that jazm1n3s mentioned. In addition to those i remember

the holiday lipgloss sets from last year (the pink and coral ones)
Warm Blend, light flush and Brunette mineralize skin finishes
Deep Dark, Medium Natural Skinfinishes
Utterly posh dazzelglass

Still no Style warrior stuff
only three paint pots: mosscape, indianwood and a blue one (delft??)
Green mix, Odd couple and interview mineralize eyeshadow
Strobe Liquid
NW55 NW45 and NC55 Studio Sculpt foundations
Raven and Mystery Eye kohl
the red from neo sci fi (serendipity??)
The bronzing powder from neo sci fi (refined bronze i think)
Studio techs in shades NC55 and darker
lots of face brushes and brush sets

The stains from rose romance were all gone
In all the selectinon looked kinda smaller that what i was used to but they said that they would be receiving a large shipment very soon so they probably have loads more product at this point.
HTH

Re: Houston (Cypress), TX CCO (Houston Premium Outlets)

Hi lovelies,
I went to the CCO on the 26th yesterday. They didn't have anything too exciting this time. Most of the items mentioned were still there.
I saw:
Lippies: HK Popster TLC, two see thru lip colour from Rose Romance Collection (Secret Crush & Tender Tryst), 2N, 3N lipglass, some cremesheen lipsticks & lipglasses. I swatched the 2N lipglass, but the smell was a bit weird. Maybe because it's old. I also saw 3 of the tri-color lipglasses from Sugarsweet in the glass display and 3 lipglass from Stylistics 2007 collection (I bought Soft Pout lipglass before and I LOVE it!!)
Blushes & MSFs: Same as before, but now they have Just A Pinch Gel Blush. MSFs were Perfect Topping, Refined, So Ceylon and tons of Brunette
They had less eyeshadows, but i saw Grand Entrance was there.
Pigments: Several solarbits, including Black Ore. I've been wanting it, but when I swatched yesterday, it was very glitttery. Heritage Rouge, Blackened Red, Tea Time, Cocomotion, Transparent Teal, Lovely Lily, etc. No exciting colors.
Others: Both Graphic Garden e/s palette, Summer Crop lip bag, two of little darlings pigment sets from last year, Tempting and Shadowy Lady Quads, Rave pearlglide, etc.
Brushes: Didn't see the brushes yesterday, but they still had the list of what they had. They were out of 217.

Overall, I was pretty disappointed. I was hoping they had new shipment came in, but they had much less products than when I went on Black Friday. Btw, they had all Prescriptives and all Fragrance sets extra 20% off yesterday.
Oh and I also went to Lancôme-Designer Fragrances & Cosmetic Co just couple doors next to the CCO and they had the whole store 40% off. It was pretty packed. They had Lancome Bi-facil 40% off from $21.60, which I thought was a great deal.

Thank you so much for keeping me updated on what you are finding. My trip has been slightly pushed back until the first week of January, but that's ok. I'm just excited about going. This CCO has some really great stuff! Just by using your list for judgement I think I better bring about $250.00 with me. I usually drive over to the CCO in Gulfport, MS, they usually have pretty good stuff there too, but there are somethings that this one has that Gulfport doesn't. Thanks again.

You're welcome! I'm happy to do it

Oh, I love Gulfport CCO! I went there several times when I visited my boyfriend in Alabama. Their selections were often better than Houston's.

I actually went back to the CCO today to grab the Black Ore solar bits, because i regretted not getting it before (they have 2 left now). They had 3 other solar bits there (Sunpower, Bronzecape, and Scatterays)
Additional things that I saw:
Lippies: All 3 Rose Romance see thru lip colour, Big Bow, Viva Glam VI SE, Cosmo, Full Fuschia, Lollipop Loving, etc.
Eyeshadows: Tete-a-Tint, Shore Leave, Henna, Mink & Sable, Illegal Cargo, Dear Cupcake, Silverthorne, Knight, Sugarshot, Go, Lotusland, Warming Trend, Femme Fi, Earthly Riches mineralize e/s (LOVE!), couple of Metal-X shadows.
Pigments: Heritage Rouge, Kitchmas, Antique Green, and the rest were the same as I mentioned before.
Blushes/MSF: Blush of Youth, Summer Rose, Petticoat, Light Over Dark, Earth to Earth, Moonriver, Intenso, and the rest were the same as mentioned.
Brushes: 209, 224, 116, and I don't remember the rest.
Others: Body wash from Naked Honey collection

Re: Houston (Cypress), TX CCO (Houston Premium Outlets)

Hi All,
I went to the CCO again today. Everything was basically the same as before, but additional things that I saw:

Lippies: 3 dazzleglasses from Euristoracts II collections (Local Colour, Internationalist, and Roman Holiday), some cremesheens glosses were still there, and I also saw 4 lipglasses from Colour Craft collection in the display (one of them was Eclectic Edge). They also had Style Warrior and Fierce & Fabulous lipglass. Lipsticks weren't so exciting. I saw they had Show Orchid and Modesty. Oh and they had Popster TLC.

Eyeshadows: More mineralized eyeshadows, glamour check!, daisychain, sugarshot, et tu bouquet?, warming trend, talent pool, and they also had smoke and diamonds from Love That Look collection. (I have S&D already from the 1st release, but I swatched this one and the texture was a lot more buttery smooth than mine. I want mine to be like that too! I almost bought a 2nd one just because of the texture)

Pigments: Same as before, but they also had Jardin Aires and Gold Mode too.

Blushes: They had almost all mineralized blushes (Love Joy, Gentle, Dainty, Nuance, etc), Blooming, Strada, and a lot more.

Eyeliner: I didnt rellay see this section, but I saw they had Raven kohl pencil

They told me they receive shipment every end of the month. HTH!

Visited today!

Holy crappola, I'm so glad I stopped at the CCO today! I'd never been to one before, and while I'm visiting family in the Houston area I decided to make the hour trip since there isn't one near me. Thank goodness I did, because I found a LOT of stuff I'd been craving, and a lot more stuff I just LOVE! I am going to post a haul video on youtube soon, at which point I'll link it, but I wanted to give a brief update on the selection so far.
I didn't note every particular thing and shade, but the saleswoman who helped me, Kathy, was super sweet and told me she orders about $500,000 extra worth of MAC than she's supposed to every year (as per her supervisor's orders) so they have a huge selection!
Here's some of the things I noticed:
  • Foundation shades are seriously scarce; they have a lot of darker shades in fluids and compacts (not sure what types they all were, but I did notice they had studio fix fluid and hyperreal whatever-it's-called)

  • There was a LOT of stuff from the Hello Kitty, Dame Edna, Style Warrior, and Fafi Collections (and some stuff from the Neo Sci Fi)

  • They had a lot of past holiday pallets and brush sets

  • LE Brushes (not SE, like the holiday sets, but normal MAC quality brushes)? YES (but only some)

  • Lots of discontinued lipsticks

  • Many of the soon-to-be and already discontinued mineral e/s were in stock (I did not see any style black, but I did not look that hard)

  • Lots of MSF, especially from BBR collection and they also had So Celyon, which I hear a lot of ppl want

  • Some holiday pigment, lipglass, and eyeliner sets from previous years (including the ones from 2009)

  • A huge selection of pigments and eyeshadows, contrary to a lot of the earlier reports

  • Minimal mascara selection; no plushlash in black
    ssad.gif

  • Some skin stuff, including fast response eye cream and Naked Honey body wash

  • TENDERTONES!!!!
As for the limit... she was very lax. I paid 2 separate transactions in cash, and we split it up based on the "only three items of the same kind" rule. I ended up spending just under $429 including tax, $300.02 for one transaction and $128.55 for the other. She was super nice, and even tried to find a product in the back even though I told her the chances were slim she had it since it was discontinued in 2001 (anyone have Sound Trip shimmer powder? PM ME!!)
That's all I've got for right now, if I remember anything else I'll put it here.
Watch my haul for more products I picked up! I don't know all the collections by name, so if you recognize the packaging and want it GO GET IT! I wish I had taken footage in the store...
ssad.gif

Don't forget to check out the Lancome outlet, too! I got a great gift set there for $42 with $330 WORTH OF PRODUCTS! WOW.
And Fragrance Outlet sells NYX, so if you were looking for NYX and live in or around Cypress, TX you can find it at the outlets! They have a very limited selection of jumbo e/s pencils, though, which is what I went in looking for.

Re: Houston (Cypress), TX CCO (Houston Premium Outlets)

OMG I don't even know where to begin. They had SOOO much stuff!!! Pigments especially!!!
I just got back from the CCO, and i was so stunned and excited seeing so many pigments laying down the shelf.
th_DANCE.gif

Ok, here we go:

Pigments: All reflects you can think about, they had them all. They had rose, circa plum, mutiny, chocolate brown, lovely lily, violet, push the edge (I think i got the last one), vanilla, teal, tan, tea time, cocomotion, heritage rouge, pink bronze, pink pearl, copper sparkle, blue brown, green brown, melon, golden lemon, kitschmas, blonde's gold, spiritualize, antique green, black, red, blue, orange, jardin aires, mega rich, lark about, etc. My head was spinning! They also had 4 solarbits (No Black Ore)

Eyeshadows: 2 mineralize shadows from holiday 09 collection (one of them is 'It's a miracle), lots of other mineralize and couple of metal-x. Regular shadows, they had vibrant grape, night maneuvers, tempting, et tu bouquet, pollinator, dear cupcake, aquavert, buckwheat (LOVE!), illegal cargo, white frost, beauty marked, top knot, dreammaker, grand entrance, silverthorn, etc.

Palettes: Tone Grey quad, all quads from Make Up Art Cosmetics (Photorealism, In The Gallery, Notoriety), two from Heatherette or HK, Tempting, two from Fafi, all palettes from holiday 09.

Lipsticks: Not too exciting. The only things i noticed were Way to Love, Viva Glam VI SE, VG V, High Def, Pervette

Lipglass: Soft Dazzle & My Favorite Pink (from Dazzleglass creme), Boy Bait, Fashion Scoop, Local Colour, Stop!Look!, Like Venus, Goldyrocks dazzleglasses. They also had all lipglasses from Style Warrior,

Blushes: Didn't really pay attention to this section. I remember they had both HK beauty powders, Moon River, etc

MSFs: They got tons of Blonde, Brunette, Redhead (this one is amazing!), Perfect Topping, Refined, So Ceylon, Porcelain Pink, Cheeky Bronze, Sunny By Nature

Brushes: the only thing stuck in my head is 224 for $19.75

They told me they received like 70 boxes and still had 30 more boxes left unopened. So they should have more in the next couple of days. I know they had more lippies, cos I saw them behind the counter.

If you ladies/guys are in Houston area, definitely check out the CCO. You won't be dissapointed! HTH!
