uhm here we pay more for special packaging.. standard price for an eyeshadow is 14,50 I guess, so for special packaging should be 15,50 euro (I hope it's not more!)

Is the price increase due to the special packaging, perhaps? Or is this...permanent. 
I don't know about the US, but I doubt it's a permanent price increase, because some items, like the e/s, which are more expensive in this collection, were increased over here not that long ago. It has to be the special packaging. But the pigment stacks and bronzing sticks are way too expensive I think, no matter what packaging or price increase. The stacks are 38 Euro over here, that's like 54 US $, and the sticks are 30 Euro. Even for german MAC prices that seems a lot.
I still don't have a shipping confirmation for my blush, after two days! I'm seriously annoyed, because I know of people who definitely ordered later than me and theirs was shipped already this afternoon. It's almost 11 pm, I doubt I'll still get it today.
If I don't get the blush, but people who ordered later than me do, I'm going to comlain to their customer service for sure.

[/quote] That's definitely a good idea. You can substitute My Paradise for Torrid. Just my opinion. Nars blushes are top notch.

i am contemplating getting the estee lauder starfish blush/bronzer instead of the surf baby blush, i just think cos it's more wearable i would use it more often, and i need another coral blush like a hole in the head, i dont have anything bronzy except for refined golden

Same here. I haven't been too impressed by MAC lately, so if they do raise prices like this, I'll be going to NARS, MUFE, and Illamasqua.

@Babylard- According to everything I've seen, it looks like a cremesheen. (Sorry- I couldn't quote for a second there)
And I am loving the look of Bust Out! And Mocha again. But I need to remember I can B2M for that one anytime.

I think I'll take bust out .. but I hope it doesn't turn magenta on me like Spitfire (I've tried play time and it turned magenta too!) well I like magenta lipsticks but i'd like this to be more blue based!
I'm obsessed with dupes!!!

I keep telling myself Bust out doesn't look like spitfire nor flaunting it ... it's not magenta and it's not a grey purple! ... I can take it!!! maybe ...
Here surf baby doesn't seems to be very appreciated.. maybe italian girls prefer pastels (Quite cute) well, we'll see!!

Atleast it won't sell out as quick than! To me Bust Out seems different to to Spitfire as its more purple - definitely a no buy for me as I've only wore Playtime once out of the house and have yet to try Courting Lilac!
