Mac Mineralize SPF15 Foundation Loose at Nordstroms but no colors for deeper WOC!!!!!
I was estactic when I went to my favorite online department store Nordstroms to see the Heatherette collection, and to my surprise they also have the Mineralize loose powder but only 5 shades, I thought MAC had planned on having at least 7 shades, none of these will work for me. Does anyone have any information as to whether or not will expand the color range for this foundation!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Maybe it will be expanded when it hits MAC stores in April.... I just so happen to wear the medium deep shade so I guess I'm lucky I will be picking it up tomorrow with my Heatherette....

I wear medium deep and I didn't see my shade at Nordstrom.com. Do they have it in the store?

the colors that are being released are:

light medium
medium
medium plus
medium dark
medium deep
dark
deep dark
deeper dark

call down people. for some reason nordstrom came out with the collection earlier than anyone else, and they just don't have all the colors online yet. go to your local nordstrom and get your color. otherwise, just wait til it comes out at all locations. btw, these will only be permanent at stores.

my nordies only had 4 colors. the ma said there was some mix up with the shipping..that just so happened to be the last 3 shades..weird but the container and capplicator look interesting. the puff on the outside is soft and i think the MA said a regular sponge wedge was in the middle of the puff when she flipped it inside out. She said it had plenty of minerals in it and was very buildable..cant wait for the darker shades to come

apparently that artist doesn't know anything! the applicator part has a soft "sock" covering. this sock covering is what you use to apply the foundation. when you take the sock off to change it (it comes with a replacement sock), you remove the sock from a round latex sponge. DO NOT apply the foundation directly with the sponge. you CAN NOT clean or replace the sponge. there are 77 minerals to be exact, so i guess that would be considered "plenty". that artist needs to brush up on her product knowledge just a bit.

Nordstom online isn't always up to date. What you find in store might be different.

Not necessarily. You might be the same colour, or lighter or darker, in the Loose foundation. When it is launched in April, just go into your store and try it out. Best way to find your colour match. It's common knowledge foundation colours vary from foundation formula to another.
