Ugh. My THIRD order this month. But I do really need some quality brushes and I want all the paint pots I can get so.... I guess it was worth it so THANK YOU!

I am so bitter about the discontinuation of Moss Scape. It was my first paint pot and I love it dearly; the colour is beautiful. Bastards.

The 188 and 239 are excellent brushes that I use daily! The 239 and 217 are the brushes you are pretty much guaranteed I will use for any given makeup application.

OOH i'd like to see swatches of each of these with the two side swirled together!

I got an email from MAC this morning. The 239 is backordered!

So I gotta wait about 2 WEEKS for it. At least I'll get to have my 188 and play with my third paint pot!

The Kitty Kouture Dazzleglass (31 EUR

) ate the money for Moon River.

And these blushes are 24 EUR here and I can't justify to spend that much on a blush. 2 EUR for the duo gimmick? No thanks!

 

[darkishstar]

Yeah, I think I would rather take the opportunity to pick up Love Thing or something instead, if I really must get another blush, which I don't feel the need to have...

After seeing more pics, I now want Hot planet too. Damnit!

 

[MzzRach]

These look really pretty, but considering how many blushes I already own (a LOT) I am going to give this whole collection a pass.

Yeah after much thought last night when I couldn't get to asleep & my mind wondered to Mac, I decided I'm going to give this collection a pass too. I really want a few things from Sugarsweet instead. Unless a product has rave reviews then it's a must.

Shocking - I decided to pass the Grand Duos. HK will be more expensive here than the regular prices

and I still have 5 blushes from Sonic Chic. I want my HK stuff and had to make a decision.

With the number of collections and the price of everything, we can't have it all. Enjoy your HK!!

But, everything is so pretty! Damn MAC, why is HK so expensive here

 

[Marjolaine]

MAC prices are going to rise here (as MUAs said) as well.. I don't get it.. Everyone is suffering from the economical crisis but MAC increases prices..

Anyway I guess I'll pass HK and buy Grand Duos..

 

[kiss]

There's no way I am skipping Grand Duos, but I have absolutely no problem skipping HK Kouture.

 

[dreamer246]

Dainty, or Moon River?

Silly me, I totally forgot to look at Dainty the last time I was at MAC. Was in a hurry to return to school. Hopefully there are still stocks!

I was just thinking, since it's been said that the MBs have poor staying power, would the MSF side of Grand Duos make the overall staying power of these blushes much better than the regular MBs? If so, I'd rather get these than the MBs. Need something that will last on my oily skin.

Ladies,

.

Although you are passing Grand Duos, will you still play with the testers? If you do please tell us your thoughts. I like to look at new collections even if I have decided to pass them.

Of course I will play with Grand Duos at the counter for you!
