Oh look at that! Yesss, that was all there at the counter! I don't think this link was here on Specktra before in this thread? So it might not be new to you but the info was new to others? At least I don't remember it? So I haven't copied anything from there, I really was at the counter yesterday and saw all of that lol.

sorry for not sharing

I must have found that when I was browsing info about the trip palettes before my sister went away (or while she was overseas) and figured I must have found it from Specktra somewhere...

So sorry all!! Please forgive me!

The names of the lipsticks are Creme De la Femme (frost), Flashtronic (lustre), Eager(lustre) and I can't remember the name of the other l/s.

One of the lip glass is PRRR and I forgot the name of the other one.

Of course, that d/g set is the best among all.

How much was the dazzleglass set, Moxy? cause usually the dutyfree are a little cheaper, no tax, right?

 

[Ejka]

Thanks for the info, Moxy! I'm sure I would've misses my plane standing hypnotised at the MAC counter

Apart from dazzleglasses, did you maybe manage to take a look at uk prices of other products (especially the eye palettes)?

 

[Moxy]

Gah I'm sorry guys, there was so much going on that memorizing the colours was an effort in itself, save how much they cost!! All I can remember is that everything was between 20 and 30 pounds.

I can only tell for sure that
the dazzleglass set = £29.80
the palette that has cheek&eye combo (got that for my sis) = £20.05
and the eye palette (for a Slovenian friend) = £23.05

the rest is between £20 and £30

But yes, MAC at duty free is regular price minus 15%.

 

[IheartCosmetics]

Ok, so the Bronze eye and cheek palette is about $30? Also is there a number I can call to see where they are selling these?

Could I be your Slovenian friend

?
Thank you for the prices (I was pleasantly surprised by them

)- now I can go on harassing people who're travelling to the UK to snatch them for me...

 

[sn0wbunnie]

Okay ladies and gents, I am traveling through the Vancouver and Chicago airports tomorrow and will let you know what I find... I NEED these!

 

[dreamer246]

Hmm I'm pretty sure I saw some of these trip palettes and the d/g trio at the MAC counter @ DFS Galleria. I will be going there again soon (hopefully later today, if I can convince my friend to take a detour there with me

) to take a closer look.

 

[cupcake123]

Yay, Winnie, go get it. Everything looks so pretty, especially the cool eyes palette.

Moxy, thanks for the update. The dazzleglass is an awesome deal.

 

[SmokeSignal16]

I wish I could travel somewhere so I could get these but I'm not going anywhere

 

[dreamer246]

I was at the counter today! Here's proof that the palettes are available at the counter here (sorry for the crappy pics, I was afraid of being caught so I took them quickly):

And specially for Jeanette and Susanne and whoever else that wants the cool eyes palette:

 

[capmorlovesmac]

Thank you Winnie!

Aww how pretty the displays look! They would look so nice on my dresser.

 

[snowflakelashes]

Thanks winnie! Those pics are great! I know if I ever travel internationally to pay more attention in duty free stores! lol

 

[cupcake123]

Awesome photos, Winnie. Do you have any preferences? Did you buy anything? Looks like they have just about everything available.

 

[blinkymei]

I remember the d/g trios. eyeliners, and everything Moxy said but I thought they were always there... lol, because lots of other companies like Dior always have travel exclusives, I will be better at MAC watching out for that stuff... I wish I can travel internationally really soon.

By the way, at the SFO airport in San Francisco, California, USA... all that stuff is out now not June as reported in some beauty blogs... so yea, my 2 cents

 

[Ejka]

Winnie the pics are great! Thank you

! I'm seriously contemplating moving to Singapore. You have endless supplies of LE items & you can buy Trip airport exclusives at a 'regular' store...

I thought being excited for my weekend getaway with one of my bff's was enough to look forward too but now i'll be wide away for my 5:45am flight...as i wait i'll go and check out the trip collection and have something to play with at the airport....
