called CS again and while she could not confirm 100% she was good + pretty much said the inventory is solid and due to the higher price point she thinks a lot will not buy - she said you can cancel your order within an hour time frame so if you want to order twice to 100% get 2 day ship they can then cancel your first order - she suggested just to roll with 1st order though as she thinks that the warehouse is quite good about upgrading shipping on orders.....

I called and they pretty much said the same thing, but then she told me that they are having a high call volume as well. Maybe a lot of people are ordering over the phone to not mess with the damn site...

A girl can't say no to baby pink

...or any pink

I chose that one because while I have many many coral blushes, I do not have ANY baby/cooler pinks, and I think it will work on me...we'll see...

(I'm so excited!)

considering my username, I'm pretty obsessed with lilies and their beauty too lol

YES, I guess so!!!

 

[elegant-one]

oh water lilies !! I don't know why I think of hibiscus when I see that print

yep, their version is kind of hibiscus looking

Ordered the Beauty Powder, Zenith L/S & Red Water Lily blush. I'm excited to finally see the packaging in person!

The red water lilky blush says coming soon on the Canadian website. Does that mean that it is sold out in Canada?

I think this is true for a lot of people, but what I also think is that there are very few swatches of these products. Many people agree that things pull strangely on T, so hers are hard to use, especially for such a pricey product. And Karen is also pretty medium/medium dark and warm, so super pale ladies and WOC can't entirely judge from her either. I think once more pics start coming out (like ours) more people will jump on them. Also, ebay sellers want high profit margins...easy to get 100%-200% profit on a $17 lipstick...not so much with a $30. The ladies who buy MAC will probably not shell out $60-$90, and from comments here and elsewhere, many are not sure at MSRP. Just my

yes we are

You might be more so than others lol.

I really want something for the pretty packaging, but I'm just not feeling the products!! What to do, what to do... Maybe a lipstick?

You know, in the upper right on the actual product page where they show the swatches & its all crumbley. You may have to scroll over it to change the swatch to that version.

Aahhh, on the MAC site. Yeah, I saw that. I tend to tune those out because I have not found them very accurate, historically (for me anyway). It is very lovely, and I will be happy if it is that color.

 

[pbpink]

Lord that BP looks pink as hell. I hope it doesnt go ashy on me.

just send it back, the cost is way to high to keep if it is not perfection! i'm sure red water lily will be stunning on you! what else did you get?

 

[pbpink]

Me too!!

do you know her btw?

just saw she said she has class at noon so i would hope she got this by now! she seems so sweet i don't want her to miss but i think stock is good!

Oh I'm so dropping it off at my nearest MAC store if it's a hot mess! Their BPs are so hit and miss. I got Red Water Lily Blush, and all the lippies.

 

[Tarabotti]

Got my one lippie- Brave Red, already received a confirmation notice.

I will try to make it to the MAC store (NY) next week to check out the other items in person. Although if nothing sells out by tomorrow, I might place another order.

the only BP i have bought was the Bao summer opal and everyone in the world seems to love it! No clue why I kept it as I can't see it on my face under any lights!

You can drop off at MAC store to return? had no clue!
