I'm tempted to pick up the pigments, but I'm going to wait until I can see them in person at the counter. I'm a sucker for teal [hurrrraaaay being a Taurus!] and the black one wet looks really delightful.
We shall see...

That was my plan. I wasn't even going to order online. But, I realized, I pay less sales tax and I was almost guaranteed to get them if I ordered online- my MA said they got practically nothing in store. Very limited.

Ah hell, why'd you have to tell me that? Haha. Well, if I miss out on them now I suppose I can ISO them later. I just placed an order online and don't feel like paying extra sales tax for a couple of pigments. I'll take my chances, I think...

I'm sure it will be fine. My MA doesn't like me that much, so she might have just been trying to scare me
I'm sure you'll get them!

Hahaha! Your MA doesn't like you? How is that possible? You seem like a fantastic person! I've had a run in or two with a couple of nasty MA's, but they just didn't understand my sarcastic and dry sense of humor. ;D

Yes- I am quite sarcastic as well, and I could see how that may get on a salesperson's nerves. But mostly, the MAs at my store are just rude and very snobby.

Unfortunately I know what you mean. I've been to some MAC's where the MA's are very snobby. I generally dont go into MAC wearing any makeup because I like to try on products before I buy them. When I do that, the MA's [not all, but some] tend to ignore me [but if I need help I always ask]. The few times I was in MAC wearing makeup, everyone thought I worked there, haha. I wear a lot of black.

I do the same! The problem is, my store is at the rich-people mall where I live, so if I go in early in the morning with no makeup ready to try products, they make me feel so uncomfortable that I end up leaving. I prefer my Dillard's counter MUCH more.

I refuse to let MA's make me uncomfortable... Because they almost all seem to have a little snobbishness going on. Although, when I went to my counter the other day they had a new girl working there and she was the nicest MAC worker I've ever encountered. Poor thing was having a hard time keeping up with the customers though.

Same here. I tend to head to my Macy's counter and save the store for Store-only buys and I rarely windowshop. I go in with a list to the store and that's that.

When my favorite MA's are having a tough time, they let me help customers [obviously not ringing them out, but things like giving them color rec's and some application] a little bit. It's my joy to help them, because they go out of their way to be nice to me and they let me paruse the selection of collections that hasn't come out yet.
