It's been a long wait for you but hopefully you'll enjoy the goodies when you find the time to play with them!

Thanks so much hun!!

And yes he's been extremely nice and helpful.

I guess that's what's made me most excited above all, I never expected the Mexico Brand Manager to answer my prayers and to be sooo nice, down to earth and helpful. He didn't search for the collection, though, it was at his drawer

. MAC sends the brand managers of all countries, the products 5-6 months prior US launch date. That's what I got. My GPS are not marked in any way, they don't say MAC, the shade nor have a color cap... But he could have kept them at his drawer, so...It's been a great surprise and an awesome experience!!

.

And yes he saved me a ton of money... that I'm to spend in MAC anyway.

Yes, I guess it was meant to be!!

I really, really wanted them!! I wouldn't have cared if I missed Pret a Papier or even To the Beach... I would have made my peace with it. I wanted Art Supplies badly!!!

So true! I think he's going to get good karma for doing this good deed.

Marked or not I'm sure you'll enjoy them all the same. I know I would!

Besides, the packaging you have is special too in that not many people in the world would have the GPS & pearlglide liners in the unmarked packaging.

And YESS! Cheers to more $ for future MAC collections!

[nunu]

That is a very sweet story Hypathia! I hope you enjoy your goodies. Your local manager is so sweet!

 

[*JJ*]

WOW. that's some customer service! lucky you! enjoy your goodies!

 

[Flaminbird]

Oh wow Eugenia that's GREAT!

. Glad you got the products

I looked to see what they had left when I got the Superglass at my local FS and the only liners left were Black Line and Industrial. THey had all the GPS though and I almost got the green but didnt. I'm hoping these show up at the CCO in 4 months so that'd be August to start checking the stores out

 

[Eleentje]

Hahaha, you do seem to get into all of kind of exciting stories with Mac, Hypathya

First Ripe Peach, and now Art Supplies

Awesome!

 

[GlamQueen21]

Hypathya: You are so lucky girl that you got your items for free! Money well saved for you! Wish that happend to me so that I don't go bankrupt every time lol

 

[dreamer246]

Hypathya: That is so amazing! I would love to be in your shoes. Sigh.

Well, yeah it is!!

But don't wish to be in my shoes too often, there's been drama in my life too.

I was at the CCO in Orlando today (Premium) and they had Charred Mauve and Dirty GPS!!! I seriously thought I was seeing things at first!

Really? Already? Wow I wish they'd have them up here the fast

 

[shontay07108]

I am so relieved. I was about to order the Dirty gps. I was kicking myself for not buying it yesterday. But then, something told me to check out my MUFE cream liners and there ya go: The gunmetal shade is JUST like Dirty. There's no justifying having both. Money saved and I can do the looks I wanted to do with Dirty.

I know! If I had known that, I definitely would have held out on getting Dirty. I'm going to go back next weekend after payday and get the purple one just for kicks. I hope they still have it.

 

[Shadowy Lady]

Just wanted to report that I use either Dirty or Below Ground on a weekly basis. These two GPS are my best MAC buys of 2010!

 

[January]

I put Industrial p/g on my lower lashline with some Silverthorn e/s on top (a silvery-blue). So pretty! I lined my waterline with Smoulder... so it's a nice contract.

 

[Hypathya]

Today I wore Undercurrent!!

 

[only1angel]

WOW, I feel like I haven't been on Specktra in AGES

! I had some personal family matters to take care of, so I've been pretty busy. Then to make matters worse, I woke up one morning last week and could barely open my left eye!!!! It scared the heck out of me! So I had to be without my contacts since then. I hadn't repaired my glasses, so basically I wasn't able to use my comp since last week- AND I HAVEN'T BEEN WEARING MAKEUP IN A WEEK (afraid of using eye makeup due to my eye)!!!!!!!

. I went to the docs, and although my eye is still bothering me a bit, I at least had my glasses repaired lol. So now back to Specktra I go!!!!!!!! I MISSSSSSS talking about the collections (and wearing them, too lol)!!!!!


I also wanted to say a HUGE THANK YOU for all the birthday wishes!!!!! I wasn't able to read them until now, even though it was like a month away lol, but reading them all just put such a smile on my face- considering all that's been going on right now, that smile was MUCH needed! So I just wanted to say Thank you so much again, that was very sweet of you all!!!!!!

Oh, and I wanted to mention, I DID get all my goodies from my Art Supplies bday wishlist

 

[Teggy]

I put on Undercurrent the other day and thought to myself, "Why does this look so dark? Why doesn't this look teal? And why is it harder to put on?"

Turns out I had grabbed Jealous by mistake. Hey, the label colors looked similar.
