There's an awful lot of stuff in there actually! I'll never understand why they can't reduce those by 20-30%, not everyone can get to a CCO. I personally won't bother driving all the way to one myself.

Ohh, I really liked the Ellie Saab one!
Thank you for your tips, ladies! I'll check out the duty free on Thursday, if they will have the new Chanel stuff.
I doubt they'll ever have a sale on the Mac website. Although I had seen discounted TT eyeshadows on the US one.
HE brands are annoying like that. They rarely have any kind of sales, unless the actual store is doing some kind of special offer. It's all those price politics bs, as never having a sale makes them a prestigious brand. Even if that will mean they'll end up with lots of unsold stock from less hyped up collections.

Exactly, I am sure it's a very deliberate part of the pricing strategy for the brand. As as brand, as soon as you start to offer price discounts, it's very hard to get people to purchase at the regular price again as they start to expect or hold out for a discount... It's very difficult to go back, and your business can soon become unprofitable if suddenly consumers are only buying on discount. I often wonder how much Clinique (also a Lauder brand) sell when they offer GWP, as I imagine many of their consumers hold out on purchasing until it's GWP time.Ohh, I really liked the Ellie Saab one!

(Sorry, I can't help but always look at these things from the brand's perspective - I guess it is my job after all, so it's hard to break the habit even though I'm a consumer!)

Anita, it's always fascinating for me to learn how thee industry works and what strategies the companies use to let us part with our money quicker I'm not a big fan of round palettes or palettes without any dividers between the colours, but this Stila one does look really nice. They have arranged the colours in gradations, which would make choosing out the colours that go nicely together a piece of cake!
