UK Prices?

[Miss Pumpkin]

Hi dolls, I'm moving to the UK on Tuesday and I'd like to know what's the price of MAC products there, so if someone can write a brief list I'd be very happy!

 

[Sushi_Flower]

Wow, how come you're moving away from Spain to join us! (it's gone terribly cold all of a sudden today)

Well i don't know what prices in Spain are like but everything is more expensive than US prices here. Eyeshadows are £9 and lipgloss is the same i think.. I think i'll leave rest to other people cos i can't remmber prices of things!

I just pulled the prices straight off my spreadsheet which lists recent purchases! Doesn't everyone use a spreadsheet with their inventory and wishlist?

 

[Miss Pumpkin]

Thanks girls that was really helpful!!

I'm moving there because I got an scholarship to study at Liverpool Uni

 

[Sushi_Flower]

Ah! good luck! Enjoy the Scouse accents!

 

[Miss Pumpkin]

Hahaha I know, I'm actually quite scared of them, I hope I'll understand what they say

That's great news, congratulations on your university place! I hope you have a pleasant journey over here.

Your nearest M·A·C counters are in Manchester - there are two at Manchester Airport Duty Free in terminals 1 and 2 which you may be able to use on your way in but probably not.

You've also got three other Manchester counters of which the most convenient if you take public transport from Liverpool will be Selfridges Exchange Square. It's within easy walking distance of Manchester Victoria railway station.

If you want a Pro store you'll have to come to London.

As others have mentioned, there is a site with many international currencies, and their prices for various MAC products. This link is always available via the MAC international prices FAQ in the FAQ forum: http://www.specktra.net/forum/showthread.php?t=25422

I've heard lots of good things from friends who have been to the Birmingham store (It's really handy for Birmingham New Street station) but I've not been there yet myself - I've got a Pro store within range in London.

 

[Incus]

Is the only pro store in london, in soho?

Yes. There are several standalone stores but only one Pro Store. Your next nearest Pro stores are in Paris, then Rome and New York! Unless you're looking specifically for Pro products the regular standalone stores should suit your needs.

 

[Incus]

I wanted to get some quad pallettes...I assume they only sale that in Pro stores?! right?! The nearest mac to me is the house of frasier branch in Bank.

 

[caffn8me]

You won't get empty quad pallettes at any M·A·C counter within a department store. Some standalone non-Pro M·A·C stores carry them but I'm not sure which UK ones do if any. Your best bet is definitely the Foubert's Place Pro Store. From Bank it's just a short hop on the Central Iine to Oxford Circus.

 

[Miss Pumpkin]

I'll definitely go to Birmingham and London (I plan to visit those places), and I'll go to Manchester more often since it's close and I want to visit that city.

Oh and Tuesday I'm spending the night at Stansted Airport (I catch a flight from there into Blackpool at 6 am) so hopefully I will have a look at the World Duty Free store. I want to get Black Tied and I've been told they have some pigments, is this true?

Do counters in the UK carry pigments? They don't here in Spain, they can only be found at the Pro Store in Madrid

Oops! Looks like my list of European Pro Stores is a bit out of date! Last time I checked, which was a while back, I could only find Paris, Rome and London.
