The MUA told me the store in SOHO and the Flatiron District in NYC. I'm not going there anytime soon. I might just skip or take my sweet, sweet time. I was only going to get Tabla for sure and the DS and Yash would be a swatch-and-see. Meh.

i'm far from nyc...but i guess since these are permanent, there really isn't any hurry. maybe they'll be popular, and other mac stores will start to carry them too....

I wonder what the other top stores are. I hope these lipsticks make it to all stores. It probably is a test of their popularity.

We shouldn't be too surprised if these are a smidgen different from the originals since that's kind of what's been happening with repromoted items.

Thanks for the info. The SAs at my store said people were asking about it but they didn't know anything. If I go to the Pro store, I will try the Flatiron store but I am definitely not running down there for this.

The original Mehr for me looked like it would be too brown but the pink/rose tones were more evident on the lips...

Maybe it is because of my skin color but the original pulls way pink on me and not brown like Offshoot does. I can't wait for swatches.

Mehr is more brown on me. There's a hint of pink, but it's definitely more brown for me. It's all about pigmentation of your lips.

I went to the Mac store in Times Square to get my Mehr and Yash lippies. I spoke with 3 different artists who told me there was no such thing and that they were limited a long time ago. I was fed up and about ready to leave because one of them was quite snotty about it. I came to the thread and saw that it said only the top 25 stores. I told this to one of the artists and said maybe that's why it's not here. She say's they're the number 1 store. A fourth artist was next to us and she asked her. She says, "Oh yeah we got them in this week", opens the drawer and there they are! Turns out she was the product specialist. I almost fell over with relief. Double Shot was sold out but I didn't want that one anyway. I ended up getting Tabla too. I really like it surprisingly!

I am so upset that MAC didn't brief everyone on this release. They had me in there looking like a crazy person. In the end they were the ones with mud on their faces, lol. Still, they should have had a demo so customers wouldn't have to go through what some of us went through. ijs

Sadly, that type of story I hear more often than you would expect. Glad you got your lippies after the hazing by the uninformed SA's. How do you like Tabla???

I love it it's a beautiful golden brown on my lips that falls between light and dark. I plan to do golden bronze-y eyes with it first.

I just opened up Mehr from the box, and it does look a little brown! We'll see how it looks on my lips, soon enough :).
