My Macys counter said they are releasing on Thursday not tomorrow. They are holding Hibiscus, Surf USA and Sun Blonde for me. At least she told me she was. It wasn't one of the ma's that usually hold my stuff so I'm hoping she follows through.
i hope u get ur items!!

Did Hibiscus disappear from the Nordstrom website? Does anyone see it there?

I got call from my nordies mac saying that my stuff would be ready for pick up tomorrow. I feel so relieved.. as after yesterdays stampede, I was kinda worried.

I only got two things!

- Short Shorts ( I love how it's shine! perfect for my skin tone!)
- Stacked pigs in Surf the Ocean (fell in love with the golden and blue/green shades. I just wish it came with a less shimmer version in the stack because I think that using the 4 of them alltogether might be too disco ball for me!)

I'm considering to get saffron but I'm not sure I'd use it at all... what would you pair saffron with? I'm thinking brown/black smokey eyes?

^^ I caved and hot Short Shorts yesterday is well. Its nice and shiny, but not overly so. no idea about Saffron though, this kind of colour is tricky on me, so I stayed away, even though payoff was amazing! Quality-wise this is a great collection, I love everything I got :)

It's impressive how a color changes on different lips' pigmentation..on me Hibiscus is almost a red but today I've tried it over In Synch lip liner and it's totally a new color...it's a pink coral! (pink because In Synch is a light salmon pink)

I got Saffron and am wearing it for the first time today. I was a bit scared of it looking at the pan but it is just beautiful. I am wearing it paired with Short Shorts in the tear duct and inner corner and to highlight my brow bone and then Sun Blonde all over my lid. Then I took Saffron on a blending brush and lightly blended it along the crease into Sun Blonde and then blended it upwards so I ended up with a soft gradient of yellow-orange-terracotta. I think you could use it with blues and pinks quite easily too. Greens would work well, it could add some depth. You could also use it in neutral looks with Short Shorts or browns and beige colours. Maybe try it out in person or look up some looks using it to get inspired.

[/quote] Bloomies had it last night. Try there. Christine from Temptalia said that Dillards might have Surf Baby as well, but it's not on their site. Maybe they're saving it all until Thursday?:bouquet:

I called MAC's CS and the lady advised me to buy it elsewhere... she said it is highly unlikely they would restock LE items.

HIBISCUS IS AVAILABLE @ bloomingdales.com and shipping is 6bucks... better than going crazy, or evilbay, or even nordstrom.

I just bought mine there since I didnt see it @ macys.com or nordstrom.com and ALL Madrid MAC stores are run out of hibiscus... I'm tired of MAC, like... seriously.

The problem is... Im hooked!
