That scared me too!! I'm really falling in love with the look of this collection, but I forgot to ask about it when visiting the MAC store last week, I'll try to give 'em a call this week. Fingers crossed!!

apparently it is a problem that's specific for the fafi paint pots. it's been reported here as well as in the us

I know for sure they're expecting the collection in Antwerp in April. Will keep you posted when I have an exact date

Re: MAC in Belguim ???
Fabulous news, thanks very much. In the store they were checking release dates a few weeks ago, and Heatherette wasn't on the list. All the other collections, even Naughty Nauticals were already on the list. Combine that with the news about the selective distribution in the UK, and it made me suspicious they would be skipping it in other countries too.

I look forward to it. It's real party makeup with a crazy twist... luv it :-)

as for the paint pots, I had the same twisted wrist when I was opening Soft Ochre. I guess they want to prevent any form of drying.

Thanks Els, April is going to be a Hot Pink month, super.

Re: MAC in Belguim ???
for those of you waiting for the opening in Brussels: I just read the following on femistyle

M.A.C. Cosmetics opent nieuwe winkel in Brussel
Het Canadese cosmeticabedrijf M.A.C. (Make-up Art Cosmetics) opent half april een nieuwe winkel in onze hoofdstad. Na Antwerpen is dit de tweede vestiging op Belgische bodem die een make-up paradijs opent met een professionele en degelijke ontvangst. Net als alle andere M.A.C. boetieks ter wereld zal ook deze winkel over een prive-make-up ruimte beschikken. Zo vinden er onder meer bruidsessies en make-up consultaties plaats. De visie van M.A.C. is duidelijk: wanneer een klant de boetiek binnenstapt, moeten alle zintuigen geprikkeld worden.

M.A.C. werd wereldwijd beroemd met professionele cosmetica, waarbij het merk steeds de nieuwste make-uptrends op de catwalk onthulde.

Vorig seizoen werkte M.A.C. mee aan 200 modeshows in steden als Milaan, New York, Londen en Parijs met ontwerpers als onder andere Roberto Cavalli, Emanuel Ungaro, Bottega Veneta en Veronique Branquinho.

De nieuwe winkel zal half april openen op de Charleroisesteenweg 9, 1000 Brussel.

Re: MAC in Belguim ???
It basically is a press article that MAC the Canadian Cosmetics Company is opening a shop in the capital, Brussels, meaning that you no longer have to go to Antwerp.
There will be a private room for bridal sessions and consultations/makeovers like other MAC stores.
(Skipping all the talk) the store will open mid April at 9, Chaussee de Charleroi


I went there today just to check, and indeed, the store is covered by a black board which says "MAC Coming Soon" so I am now genuinely excited. Looks like quite a small shop though, and you know its gonnna be VERY busy because its at Louise, and well, its the only one in Brussels!

Re: MAC in Belguim ???
It true ladies!!!! MAC is indeed coming to Brussels. I just had to see it for myself so yesterday I went to take a look.





I wish it was alittle closer to the Grand Place area but beggers can't be choosers!

Re: MAC in Belguim ???
hi, Heatherette and Dress camp should be available at the end of this week. ( April 4). Maccosmetics.co.uk already has the Euristocrats online, and I believe the Euristocrats lipsticks will follow shortly after Heatherette. (btw, I already tried Saint Germain and it's a wonderful opaque soft pink, I' must not sure how similar it is to Melrose Mood from Heatherette)
