MAC Quite Cute Discussion

[bis]

[quote name="foxxylatina07" url="/forum/thread/173299/mac-quite-cute-discussion/2790#post_2105564"] I'm going to hunt for this lipstick (CYY) down today by calling the MACY's counter and the stores. I'm going to try my luck so I'm going to keep my fingers crossed. Wish me luck
[/quote] Keeping my fingers crossed for you and hope you'll get one :hug:

Foxxylatina07 I hope you get it! x Candy yum yum,playing koi and mischivous mint are sold out in the uk website.

MAC UK have introduced the quite cute pin offer so I have willingly bought Ice Cream nail polish :eyelove: I know it's dupable but it's the only thing in stock I wanted from this collection, i bought everything else the first time round LOL I wish Playing Koi or CYY had of been in stock but hopefully I can find them at my nearest mac counter tomorrow! Fingers crossed!!

 

[nunu]

MrsB I hope you find them. I think it's silly that MAC UK is only releasing the pins now after most people have already ordered from this collection.

I would have got Ice Cream in store tomorrow as I'm going there anyway but the pins lured me in! Free p&p so only paid the instore price but still, it would have been nice to get these as a gift originally. I think the collection isn't selling as quick as they'd like so they've introduced this offer to lure people back in who would have not purchased or would have purchased elsewhere like debenhams where you get free del, money off and beauty points?

Fingers crossed!!

oh piss! well i would love a pin but have no money to spend!

Good luck on you ladies trying to track down a CYY. I may try this on my lunch break

I am not surprised all of the Lipsticks were sold out today but I was shocked to see Giggly and Bubble tea still in stock. To appease my desire for CYY, I got a Prolongwear in a lighter, more wearable (for this pale girl anyway) pink. I think it was called "Overtime". Admitted, I just did this to get the pins.

I <3 gimmicks!

[/quote] Aww I'm sorry to hear that Lou, is there no way you could hit up your OH for a couple of pennies? It does suck they have introduced this offer after most people have already bought their collection items.

[/quote] Me too! My OH tells me I am an advertising exec's dream! LOL I am so wanting CYY, I know most of my wanting comes from the lovely reviews of it so I may be buying into the hype, but hopefully I can wear it to some degree

I received my order from Macy's on Saturday. Loving the colors of the lipsticks!!! CYY is an amazing color. I also like the fact that it's a matte, but doesn't feel like it. It's quite moisturized & creamy. They need to do all their matte lipsticks like this. Playtime is beautiful! Glad I decided to buy it. QC is a pretty color to look at. I'm attracted to color. On my lips it's a little lighter than I like. It's not bad. I may just have to mix it with other colors. I honestly would have preferred QC having a just a tad more purple to the color or had it as a cream or amplified finish.

 

[foxxylatina07]

Okay so I called a few stores including macys and no luck. I've emailed several people in MUA to swap for it 2 replies saying, No and the other selling it for $27.99 only because it was already sold out, um no thank you it's not that f***ing serious. I'm not gonna resort to evilbay cuz the prices are crazy. My last resort is GBNF program and if no luck then I'm done. I can't believe MAC keeps putting us through this crap. I think that's why I haven't been investing my money on them like before. All this LE needs to slow down and they need to produce a lot because that's not fair for people like myself

End rant.



P.S I called and waited 10 minutes so I hanged up. Seriously upset right now

My order from mac website is still pending. I ordered it on 04/07

well there is nothing more that i want really so i would literally be buying just for a pin! and he actually paid for the couple of bits i already got this month so he's not likely to give me more!

[/quote] Aw I know exactly what your mean! I wasn't 100% about getting the ice cream cake polish but the pins lured me in - I'm not even sure we get 4 like the US gals - it doesn't say so since the cheapest item is £9, thats a lot for 1 pin if you don't want the item!

The email states "Purchase any product from the Quite Cute collection and receive super cute Collectable Pins", but if you add an item to your basket, the freebie shows as "Free Quite Cute Badge". It's not at all clear how many you get

 

[Naynadine]

Uh, I ordered two perm e/s just to get the pins.

Even though it's not in my budget right now. QC isn't released yet over here, but somehow you always get these goodies with regular orders before the collection comes out. I remember getting the TT booklet before the collection came out, and not getting one when I actually ordered from the collex. I heard from someone that already received those pins just from ordering perm stuff, so I'm hoping I'll get them too.

[/quote] Yeah, that is exactly what I was referring too and what I meant in saying I'm not sure we get 1 or 4 or whatever. Pins would indicate more than one as it's plural but the free badge would indicate a singular item. I guess the only way to know is to contact MAC directly and ask though personally I don't mind as I wanted the polish and didn't pay shipping

 

[VanillaCupcake]

I think it would be cuter if they were hair pins rather then the other kind because I don't have anywhere to put a pin pin lol.

exactly. and then there is shipping on top of that too!
