so sorry you missed it hun. i'm shocked at how quicikly they have sold! perhaps mac didn't order enough for us uk guys?

I saw this collection today. Thought of getting JDV or SSSE but passed in the end. I still prefer powder blush. The face powder is pretty in the pan, but it swatched brown on me so I would not be able to use it much on my face.

Looks like i'll have a look for it in Ebay.

I adore Slicked Pink! That would be my choice.

Same here. Plus the taste is plastic-y to me. I've never been a fan of the lipgeleees for this reason and these did nothing to change my mind.

I didn't call MAC directly, but when Resort Life sold out at my local store and online, I called other MAC stores in the region. I'm in Delaware, and the MAC at King of Prussia, PA had several tubes left as of last Sunday. I had to pay $7.95 for shipping, but I at least got it.....I made the mistake of NOT getting it when Lillyland first came out, and then kicked myself when I went back and it was sold out. DOH! Learned my lesson....

Thank you so much!

That's the one I was leaning more towards

resort life was my first lipgelee and i liked it so much i ordered the rest, i like the cremeblush colours, but i suck at the application, i dont have any suitable brushes and it comes out patchy with my fingers, i will have to practise and find a way to do it!

Soooo angry!!!! Lillyland came out today but it is online only so I cant get the blushes with my Pro Discount. So if I want them I have to pay full price which is the equivalent of about 70USD for two of them!!!!

good grief!!

maybe you could just get one?

 

[aussiemacluvrrr]

^^ Just one!?!?!?!?!

But how does one chose between JDV and Optimistic Orange???

haha

If I cant find a CP then I will just get them off Ebay I think. It is a little cheaper than buying them here....

i know it sucks! i would go with JDV. but yes a cp from somebody in the us might be best! even in the uk these blushes are £16.50 each which i was shocked at! (been a while since i bought a blush from mac!)

 

[stickles]

I keep wavering on Florida, but when I swatch it at counter it just comes out so... BRIGHT! I'm totally afraid of it causing some clownface action. That being said, both JDV and SSSE blend out very naturally on my face, so I'm stillllll considering it.

You need to try it on, hun. I got my MA to apply one on each side of the cheek, and Optimistic Orange made my skin look sallow whereas JDV gave a nice bright pop of color to my cheeks.

It is just ridiculous how much they charge for MAC outside of the USA. But I'm learning to live with it, slowly

I am currently in the process of trying to bribe my mother to buy them for me in Hong Kong (where the prices are pretty much on par with the USA) and post it to me.. Wish me luck! haha

^^ I'd love to try it but it's online only here.

It's all good. I'll just buy both. They are at least doing free shipping for the collection here in Aus, so that makes it a little less painful

I will kick myself if I don't get them so I'll just take the hit this time. I know I am lucky enough to have the pro discount for when Spring Forecast gets here so I can't complain.
