Definitely MAC Pro! There's also a Make Up For Ever store in Greenwich Village.
Toys R Us in Times Square is pretty fun, too. Sure, it's toys for kids, but there's a ferris wheel in there!!

My two must stops when I head home are Ricky's at 375 Broadway for beauty stuff and Century 21 on Cortlandt St. for high end discounts. There is all sorts of great shopping downtown. Little Italy has a great setup for starting out designers on the weekends set up in a school auditorium too.
Canal St. and the surrounding area is great for knock off bags and watches in secret rooms at the back of the stores and on the street. Bring cash and don't be afraid to bargain!

I agree with the poster above, Ricky's is a must! There are several in the city, just check for the locations close to where you will be. Henri Bendel has a great makeup department, as does Bergdorf Goodman. I always buy cosmetics, candles, perfumes from those two that I don't see anywhere else. Pearl River Mart is another great place, but not for cosmetics. Go down to Canal St and get great sunglasses, 2 for $10.00, clutches, hats, etc..
HTH! Have a great trip.

You are going to have SO MUCH FUN!!! I'm so excited to head back and visit my folks in 2 weeks!
Little Italy and Soho, IMHO, are the best stops for shopping, Barney's and Clyde's on Madison Ave. are also fun stops, but mega expensive.
You also must try a Gray's Papaya hot dog and pina colada (multiple locations), John's Pizzeria on Bleecker or Patsy's on University are great pizza places, and you really can't beat the Chinese food in NYC. Try and take in a Dim Sum brunch while you're in town!
PS: If you're Dutch (which I gather you are), you have an advantage! The NYC accent comes from a Dutch/British mix so Dutch tourists who learn British English always sound like NYC locals! I was a tour guide at one of the museums for 5 years and the Dutch always stumped all of us!
