^^Yes, there is a second kit with a full size pigment. I believe it is Melon p/g and a brown fluidline (forgot the name) HTH :)

Does anyone recall how fast things sold for previous holiday collections? (Especially Canada?). And what were the things to go first? I would like to compare it for this year 'cause I am still not sure about some things, so it may be a 2 part haul

lol. For example I wanted Hocus Focus and now I want both sets! I also might add the set with Shimpagne. No idea! *nervous*
Thanks for any help!

Actually to be honest .....Shoot me all...I do not like the mini gloss sets, supersize it please, I like quads not palettes, I am not big on pigments so the little vials never excite me.......I think I just got my 1st MAC palette and that is the Graphic Garden one....Just not my thing..so I manage to save tons of money on these sets..Also, I'm a plain packaging person...Not into all the fancy smancy

I do see the value in the sets and I love to get them as gifts but I hardly ever by the sets or palettes for myself.

we sold thru alot at my counter in the US, but then they restocked the palettes, and we hardly sold anything. we had tons of every palette to send back. the only thing that we actually sold completely out of was the mini gloss and pigment sets.

the thing that always gets me with the MAC holiday sets are the shiny packaging and the LE colors - I am a sucker LE colors for shadows

So Tish what did you think of the GG palette? I like that it double at a smoky. (Did you see/swatch Fresh Cut? There the cuttest baby pink ever in it!)

Actually my friend just got it for me at her CCO yesterday so I haven't had time to get it and try it...They have the Fresh Cut too but I did not get it...I will let you know what I think when I try it ...it should be here Tuesday..we live in the same state....But for 24.50 I thought I would at least try one of them.
This fotd made me want the GG bad

The Macys in NY still has GG. I saw it there a few weeks ago. I was going to get it, but I passed for some reason. I swatched it, though and it is gorgeous.

^^ get it from the CCO much Cheaper!!

I think I will wait for these to hit the CCO...if I decide to try any of them...they always get there sooner or later...as of late...sooner

I have no idea where the CCO is Tish. I tried to google it for the NJ area, but it's in some place I never heard of. Maybe I can catch it on evil bay and have my friend get it for me since I can't do evil bay anymore. LOL

I don’t like mini lipglasses too because they are so slim that after a few uses, I can’t get much lipgloss out of the application anymore. I have a jar of Pink Pearl and it is so huge that I can’t see myself ever finishing it and I rather not use loose e/s because of the mess. That said, I like Sexy Shenanigans but the pigment sets are boring this year.

I do like fancy packaging. In fact, I’m guilty of buying makeup because of the packaging, but I justify the purchases by using them too. However, I’m not crazy over this year’s holiday packaging, especially the palettes.
