    Hey everyone! Sorry if this has already been asked in recent history (I did a search but couldn't find anything). I see a lot of people talking about reserving a spot at events - especially for Fafi. How do you go about doing this? I always thought you had to be invited - hence the mailers they...

    Are Macy's giftcards accepted at MAC counters?

    I got a bunch of Macy's giftcards for christmas, so my first thought was...MAKEUP! But just in case, I wanted to ask if the independent counters at Macys (MAC, NARS, etc) accept Macy's gift cards. I know it seems silly that they wouldn't, but you know macy's, it seems like they always have...

    Hey everyone. I did a search on this but opinions seem to be different from thread to thread, plus most of the threads were like two years old. Are the lipmix compacts sold at freestanding stores, or at pro stores only? Thank you!

    What is your favourite Mattene l/s?

    So I am considering picking a few of these up today but there's a problem...I love pretty much all of the colours! Which one is your favourite and why? It would be great if you could include your complexion/colouring for reference. I'm NC20 with gold-brown eyes and very red hair.

    There is a thread like this in MAC Chat, but not one for general cosmetics. So I'm curious: about how much per month (on average) do you spend on cosmetics in general? For me personally it's hard to say. Because in the summer I work a LOT so I have a lot more money, and I'm not in school so I...
