ok my love with 128 is rising! I've tried it with a mineral blush (new vibe, pink side) and it's perfect because with it I can take the right quantity of product and I don't look like Heidi! I dare say it wasn't very good with my paradise.. probably because of the overspray that with this brush looked gross on my skin... I still have to try the 128 with classical powder brush and a cream one (although I don't like to wear cream products during the summer... it's so hot here!!!!!)

Hahha, your Heidi reference cracks me up

I actually plan on using the synthetic side to pick up some gold overlay from MP. I usually use the 192 - which is nice and stiff for that purpose - but the 128 might save me from washing an extra brush.

[/quote] Yeah I am getting more and interested in the 128. You mentioned that you don't wear foundation in the summer but any chance you could try applying a little with the tip of the brush like the mua was describing, maybe on your hand, just to see effect cause I am very curious about the result

It looks like you can't check on the status via their website. You just have to wait for an email, or you could try phoning them if you have the order number

I had to forgo getting anything from this collection in favor of some Hello Kitty Vans. Hope everyone loves what they got or will be getting later on this week.
[/quote] I know it came out on the pro site last week. Does that count for the stores too? God I hope not :shock:

Just FYI - people ordering online from California, the MAC site is still charging the old tax rate (before it went down). I called to complain about this b/c every penny counts. Right? They are refunding the difference. I figured if someone made a huge order that this could be a decent chunk of change.

Gem of Roses is already sold out on the Canadian site? Is that right? How did that happen? Was there a lot of buzz for this that I wasn't aware of? (Sorry; that's a lot of questions!)

Still deciding on the rest. The main thing that interests me is the brushes; thinking about the large kabuki and the eye blending brush. I might also pick up and eyeshadow and possibly a mineralize blush and/or skin finish. :) I don't want to place my order unless I can get the lipstick though, or at least know for certain it wont come back up on the site!

I think that there may be issues with the supply of LE lipsticks in Canada this year. I got told that they had problems with all the Quite Cute lipsticks (as in, they received very few). I was in my PRO store last week the day after launch and Lush Amber was already sold out.

I received my shipping confirmation about an hour ago. I better get this stuff by tomorrow since that's what I paid for. Plus I'll be going out of town on Thursday.

My Gem of Roses is on it's way :D

I was going to go to my MAC counter first thing on Thursday morning to check out the MSFs, but accidentally agreed to work in the morning :/ I might go in tomorrow and see if they'll hold some stuff...
