got my Ungaro stuff today! yum! haven't tried any of it yet (except Soft Flower) but they all look delicious. i can't bear sticking my fingers in the cream colour bases (i got both) hahaha.

anyway CCBs were $130
beauty powder was $190 (were they always that expensive???)

nothing was sold out yet at the Sogo one. i think i need to go back for Lilac Touch eyeshadow, it looked amazing on the MA.

We're finally seeing the effects of inflation...

Nope, Beauty Powders used to be $180! I'm just scared the MSFs will increase in price again... with that said, does anyone know when Sheer Minerals is being released?

any news about Red She Said?

Are the release dates for MAC collections in HK same as in Shanghai?

Picked up just Wolf pearlglide today, it's beaaaautiful!

Out is also Ungaro, Manish Arora. No sign of Sheer Minerals/MSFs, though I am patiently waiting for Petticoat!!

by the way oddinary, how's the lasting power of the pearlglides? is the texture really more of a "pearl" or "glitter"?
did you get any of the shadows?

waiting for petticoat as well

but they're $220? so expensive....

oddinary · 10-25-2008, 10:39 AM #**186** (**permalink**)

^ They can look quite frosty if you layer too much... it's a hard question, it's in between a pearl and glitter I'd say :P Ooh & blushes have been $155 for a while now - I was contemplating Devil but woah, it is BRIGHT! Tell me how you like the BP though, I might pick it up!

I'm confused about Sheer Minerals because over in the Color Collections forum it says it'll be available with the perm. mineralize line internationally by October :/ No big deal really, but I am desperate to get Petticoat ASAP! My first encounter with MSFs was Petticoat and every since I missed its first release with Lingerie, I've learned to run and not walk to the counters :P

Thanks for the dates, btw! I'm going to see if I can ask the MA about Sheer Minerals again - I asked last time, she seemed very confused cause she thought I was referring to the MSFs released during the N collection :?

hmmm... i think i'm gonna save my money for Red She Said then, i REALLY want that Stark Naked Beauty Powder Blush -- it looks freaking gorgeous!

i bought the Devil blush anyway :P i would have bought Pink Swoon but i already have it, and i couldn't resist the packaging. so i got that, pink manish lipglass and the palette. i haven't touched any of it yet :P the swatches of devil looked pretty though, i think it'll be ok if you use a VERYYYY light hand

anyway are you referring to flower mist dew BP? where is it still available? i quite like it, i like it more than alpha girl (i managed to score one on eBay). alpha girl's texture would be like a satin eyeshadow, harder to pick up and with less colour pay-off, while flower mist dew's texture would be like a matte2 eyeshadow. it makes my cheeks pink, matte and smooth, i love it! ^^ it's like a lighter version of pinch-o-peach? light dusty pink. would love to get a backup but they're so expensive. i hope they last long!!!!! this is the only one i have apart from alpha girl, so i don't know how long a BP would last... 11g should last quite a while?

are MSFs very glittery? i've yet to try them :P

oddinary · 10-26-2008, 10:31 AM #**188** (**permalink**)

I'm happy you got Alpha Girl after all, because thinking about Heatherette and my whole chase around HK just to get Lollipop Loving gives me a headache! XD 11g should definitely last a while...maybe even longer! I've used my Pearl Sunshine BP from Barbie tons of times, I don't even have a dip in it yet. I'm quite keen on picking up Enough Said from Red She Said though... I've done lots of budgeting, so hopefully I'll be able to afford it if I don't get sucked into buying more Pearlglides soon

MSFs vary a lot... the ones from Flashtronic were super glittery, a lot of people hated them but the ones from N are a lot finer and smoother. The MSFs from Sheer Minerals should be like that, haven't heard people complain so far :P MSFs use to be HG for me, not so much now... I suspect it's because I own so many highlighters, my favs always vary :P

Taj · 10-27-2008, 08:33 AM #**189** (**permalink**)

got phone call from MA at elements, and was told Sheer Minerals will be out 30 Oct.

mandygrimreaper · 10-27-2008, 10:01 AM #**190** (**permalink**)

ahhhh i regret not getting Light Flush from N! hopefully i'll have enough money to get Petticoat hehe. i'm really broke right now esp after Manish. (STILL haven't touched it yet btw :P)

btw when do the holiday collections usually come out? i've never bought them in HK before. i wanted to get the 6 smokey eyes but i think i'll be too broke to do that XD they're like what, $400? and the packaging doesn't seem very attractive. i mean they looked ok in the promos but reviews on MUA say they look absolutely hideous

i want to get the 3 rose lips lip bag though!! the swatches of the lipsticks look so good!!!

Taj, WOOWW the MA actually calls you about release dates? now how come i have to hunt the MAs down to ask for them
