Sorry, don't mean to sound smug, but I am so glad I didn't bother ordering from Mac, instead waited 2 days for Debenhams to have the collection since I've already received my first Debenhams order and the second one has been dispatched too (and Debenhams aren't exactly that fast when it comes to delivery times). Just another reason why not to order from Mac in the future. :(

Considering some people received their order last week and this week monday its abit of a gamble now about when our orders will come through :/
I hope everyone gets their orders today and MAC sort this out before the next big collection!

Looks like I spoke too soon, my second Debenhams order didn't come today. :( Also my Asos order (Nars trio) is taking forever, grr!

Sounds like there are delivery problems all over! Sorry to hear some of you still haven't received your orders.

I'm still waiting for something (not makeup) that I ordered on ebay back in February. When it hadn't arrived by April the seller sent me a replacement on 13th April. Neither have yet arrived :( I very much doubt it's a Customs delay, as it cost less than £18. So annoying as it's also too late to put in a PayPal claim. Some other things from America have arrived in just one week, so I'm not sure what the problem is.

I'm not very happy at the moment, as my internet access is limited - my modem stopped working this afternoon, so I only have a mobile dongle on my netbook, which is slow and of course has limited data allowance, so I can't be online as much as I wanted to. Hopefully the engineer is coming tomorrow morning, and will sort it out. The kids aren't very happy about it either, as they usually spend much of the evening on Youtube, Roblox or Minecraft. Thank goodness for games consoles is all I can say,

Don't forget to get your Superdrug Beautycard. I got one on my way home from dance class today - there was a lady standing outside the shop handing them out, and they're also available at the tills and around the shop. This will apparently be alongside the existing discount scheme where you do a survey and get a code to write on your till receipt, and there are bonus points on things around the shop too.

It's a handy little thing, with a mirror on one side :) Now why didn't Boots think of that?

I noticed in Superdrug that they had Rimmel Glam'Eyes Day 2 Night mascara with " a 2-in-1 magic cap" which is clearly a copy of MAC's Haute & Naughty, but only £7.99 (£2 off at present, so just £5.99) The tube is black, with pink round the wider cap hmm.

It's probably been out a while and I just haven't .spotted it, but I thought I'd mention it just in case.

I saw that in the new InStyle magazine, it's such a blatant copy of Mac Haute & Naughty.

Also L'Oreal has a new serum called Youth Code and the bottle it's in is very very similar to Lancome Genifique. So ridiculous.

I really hope MAC compensate you in some way for this. It's ridiculous! The courier had the package yesterday, so why couldn't they deliver it today?

Yes, both my kids are keen on Minecraft and I have bought the full game for both. They even like to watch some guy on Youtube who films himself playing Minecraft!! The guy's Youtube ID is jj5x5 and he gets rather carried away

i came home & found my paradise waiting for me today, hurrah! i ordered thursday so it's ridiculous i've got mine already when people who ordered tuesday haven't :\ get it together mac!

it's BEAUTIFUL though! i think i remember a few people saying they were pale & thought it would be quite orangey, so i just wanted to say in my opinion it's not! i thought it might pull orangey on me, but i've lightly swatched the dark part (don't want to upset the beautiful overspray yet!) and it actually seems like a corally peachy shade (sorry, rubbish with shades!) rather than orangey on my nw15 skin, so i'd definitely recommend anyone who's on the fence should go check it out in person if possible :)

Both of my orders arrived today, unfortunately my pigment set is cracked ! The box was very crumpled and i was worried when opening it. Nothing is escaping the little jars but still-the packaging of it was rubbish. Should i complain ? What if i accidentally drop the jars which ordinilly wouldnt matter but with it being cracked could be awful :-(

If anyone is near Westfield today, you might be interested in this.

Marcus Bentley (the voice-over man on Big Brother) has just tweeted this:

Just going through Westfield Shopping centre & it's the Pirates of the Carribean prem. Today Johnny Depp's here at 6!

Dang, I wish I lived close to it!
