If somethings going to be discontinued, doesnt the little triangle of death show up next to it on the MAC site? I just went there and all of the shadesticks are still listed... and none of them have the triangle,
where did you hear they were being discontinued?

Ack! I'll have to pick up another silverblu if I can make it to a mac store this week... I spend so much time purchasing various collections (eyeshadows), shadesticks go on the back burner. While I'm at it, I should finally pick up Sharkskin as well; one can never be too careful.

Re: Shadesticks to be discontinued?!?!
I don't think they're getting discontinued, some of them might be, but not all. I know MAC sells a LOT of beiging, so it wouldn't make sense to discontinue it.

Re: Shadesticks to be discontinued?!?!
i'm not a huge fan the shadesticks
but i'm pretty sure that if a color sells really well, they won't let it go. that's just begging to lose money.

Re: Shadesticks to be discontinued?!?!
A lot of people say that they don't work for them, so I can see why they would be discontinuing some.

about 3 weeks ago we finished our RTV (return to vendor) list, and all the shadesticks that i listed went out, along with a bunch of other perm. products and LE stuff.
strangely, most of the stuff that we RTV'd is still online and at stores, because as of a week ago, the stores hadn't done theirs, just counters (macy's atleast).

Really? My MAC Counter at Macy's still has ALL of the discontinued shadesticks. That's where I bought my Shimmermint the other day D:
