What time did you go? I was there about 10:30. I got everything I wanted except for a few 3D glosses and the eye powder brush. I think I will need to go back again.
Did you notice that Selfridges didn't have any of the blushes, beauty powders, lipsticks, and lipglosses from Novel Twist?

Slightly OT but I love the staff at Covent Garden, they are really nice - I haven't met a bad one yet!

Re: Release dates for the UK
Apparently none of the colour products from novel twist are coming to the UK. So that means none of the novel twist blushes or novel twist paint-pots etc will be coming. :confused:

Re: Release dates for the UK
Has anyone seen Painterly in store? My other half went to Harvey Nics today to get me a few bits and apparently they didn't have any paint pots, the SA did say something that he didn't catch so I'm not sure if they're not stocking them.
Just trying to work out whether to order online or wait.

Re: Release dates for the UK
UK release dates are nearly always the first Thursday of the Month. However with collections like McQueen that apparantly aren't getting a general release (ie, store exclusives) it could well be different.

Re: Release dates for the UK
Release dates are the first thursday of every month. McQueen collection is a Harrods exclusive collection being released on 1 October. AM will be on the website but I don't know the date though.

Re: Release dates for the UK
Hey, I just wanted to say that last week I went to the MAC counter in the Leeds Harvey Nichols. I asked about the new ranges and the MUA said they would be coming out Wednesday the 5th September. I checked that it wouldn't be Thursday, and she said that they were coming a day early.
Also that they probably would not be stocking the Kohl Power liners, as those were the only thing they had not been trained in (although she did say "Never say never").
Just to let everyone know.
(I hope she was right or I will have had a wasted trip to Leeds on Wednesday!)

Re: Release dates for the UK
Thanks for the info wintertulip. I really want to go and buy the smoke signals quads. Only trouble is I'm pretty sure I'm in early labour now, better make sure I hurry up so that I can send my hubby to HN on Wednesday with a list, lol!!

Re: Release dates for the UK
Hi, newbie here, just phoned Harvey Nicks in Edinburgh and it sounds like the new collections are in - please don't buy all the Whirlwind before I get there tonight!

Re: Release dates for the UK
That bloody sucks. I am not going to Selfridges until Friday. The only lemming I really have with this collection is the Feline Kohl Power. I really hope they have them in. It isn't on Mac website yet though.
Did anybody actually buy anything today?
