what did everyone pay for their glitters? i was overcharged.

what were you charged? they are $16.50.

Nope MAC cosmetics Canada still doesn't have it available to buy just "coming soon" for all the LE stuff. Wonder what the holdup is? I checked the US one and yep its all avail. Oh well will check the store.

Does anyone in Canada know why we don't have golden olive avail? it frustrating b/c i liked one of the looks posted and I can't even order it.

We should be so lucky! /\I don't think that is what they meant, though. My take on that statement is that the colours are timeless, not that they are permanent in the line.

i got charged 19.50. i called other belks around here and they are charging 19.50. they will not return or price match my products, since theyve sold out of the glitters already.

i called the freestanding store 5 hours away and they are charging 16.50 only.

yay for getting ripped off.

Heeee! I have never bought this much MAC in a single trip (I'm poor, I only ever get one or two things at a time).

Steel Blue Pigment - OMG SO PRETTY
Clue e/s
Rozz Revival and Twig Twig l/s
Avarice l/g - NICE on Queen's Sin. Definitely better than Red Romp.
Aaaand some brush cleanser. Love Originals.

Whoops, sorry, I thought you meant up for display on the site, not availability. Sorry for getting your hopes up!

That is strange Golden Olive isn't listed. It was at the counter so it should be available for ordering.

Does anyone know how Avarice compares to Red Romp?

That's odd. I would email MAC & let them know.

WOW! MAC has redeemed itself! I placed my order online less than 24 hours ago and UPS delivered it this morning! This makes up for the frustration of waiting almost 2 days for them to release the collection online.

And yes, I'm in luuuvvve with Parrot. Also, Charred es is prettier than I thought it would be and is the deep grey I've been looking for. I thought it would compare to soot; but soot is a slate grey (matte) and charred is a steel grey (frost), so very pretty...

They don't compare to each other on me...I'm NW45. Avarice is a deep red-coral and Red Romp is a deep berry red.

I see on the website Avarice is described as a "Mid-tone yellow red".

HTH

jeez, I was excited to check out the Originals today, went fairly early to the counter and BAM was I disappointed.
Daisychain--too light like a highlight,
Clue--I thought I'd LOVE clue but it swatched on me fairly similar to copperplate so I decided to pass
Ochre Style-- looked like crap, nearly literally, egad.
I ended up liking Alum as another lighter gray option for myself (though I just swatched this against Cumulus from Blue Storm and its close enough that I prob. shouldn't have gotten it but I will keep it anyways)
Parrot--well I decided to take the jump and buy it, so pretty now I just need to figure out a good base and wear it perhaps tomorrow!!

I'm also probably in a sour mood due to my left eye being all wonky-like and a new fold seems to have developed which CREASES LIKE A MOTHER. No base seems to work (tried Paint both in the pot and tube). Do I need an eye lift at 23 already? I kid, I won't but I'm just uber PISSED. Sorry to have ranted a bit.

:S oh well at least that saves me more money for the collections
in the new year!

I hope the originals fairs better for others!

Well, Red Romp is more berry and Avarice is a little more muted. Personally, I find Avarice better than Red Romp, as berry reds seem kind of played out to me. I could take a picture of Queen's Sin/Avarice on my lips if people want. I don't have Red Romp anymore, so I can't swatch the two together, though.
