just wanted to let you know that Laura Mercier is now available in Antwerp as well. So we now have MAC, Giorgio Armani, Laura Mercier, Shu Uemura & Smashbox.
Now if we could only find someone willing to bring Bobbi Brown, Stila & Urban Decay over here

I've never found ArtDéco in Belgium but I think it's available (but where?).

Anyway, I buy ArtDéco in the Douglas store in Maastricht (The Nederlands).

Antiquitease will be out at the begining of November in Antwerp (the mua told me "maybe the 5th").

I don't know if we're going to have just the part one (Antiquitease/Colour) or everything in the same time!?

We'll see...if anyone has more information, it'll be really welcome

Hi,

In this topic I had read something about a possible MAC store in Brussels. So I went curious and sended a mail to MAC, and this was the answer: (I'm sorry it is in dutch)

"Hartelijk dank voor uw bericht en de interesse die u toont in MAC COSMETICS.
Er zijn inderdaad plannen om de MAC store van Brussel in februari te openen.
Deze zaak zal gelokaliseerd zijn op de Chaussée de Charleroi - Stephanieplein.
Wij hopen u binnenkort in onze nieuwe MAC winkel te mogen verwelkomen."

(It means that there is comming a store in february, in the area of the Avenue Louize)

I am so happy

thanks for the update.
I was in the Mac Store this morning and I got a chance to try out the Beauty Powders, and it's no wonder that they were sold out. They are unbelievable subtle shimmery powders. There's just enough color and glow to them to melt into your skin. No heavy chunks of glitter. Most people rave about Mineralize Skin Finish , but I thought these were a level higher. Same goes for MetalX. Not at all sticky or grease as you might expect for eye shadow creams... and I just don't know of any pigment that has the same intense effect without the chunks of glitter. Get to the store and get there soon, that's the only solution. It's either that or starting a petition for larger shipments to Belgium

I made a mistake, it's Av. louise (in french), or Louizalaan (in dutch).
This is one of the most famous shoppingdistricts of Brussels, so you can't miss it. http://www25.mappy.com/sidrSeuYpzq1o...46744&x=20&y=5
