Okay, MAC just emailed me. The distribution team have confirmed that Supersweet for Chen Man won't be coming to the UK

When I went to the mac counter they had had an extra Pink union in its place



Just come back from the counter, it was SOOOO busy! I couldn't ask anyone any questions or anything :( . On the MAC website I ordered FOL, WMS and QS (before I even went to the counter), I was scared that they'd be out of stock if they were out of stock at debenhams.

I fell in love with the vera butterfly pigments ..they were gorgeous! I didn't have enough money though to get them. I hope there's a time where I can afford it before the collection ends. :(
I ended up buying some more stuff at the counter. The sheen supreme lipgloss, imperial red which is gorgeous! It's a reddish pink, has fantastic coverage, I love it. I just wish there was some more product and the packaging didn't look so cheap. I also bought the plushglass butterfly dream. My first plushglass!! I'm surprised how tiny the sting is, there's no pain at all. It make's me feel alive :p Still waiting for the plumping to be evident but the product just stay's on my lips really well. Even after I've had dinner :p

It was so great to test out all the lipsticks! Quick sizzle and force of love are so pigmented and entirely different shades of pink thankfull. Watch me simmer is also gorgeous. I'm taking a risk with all these lipsticks because I actually have no bright lipsticks. I need to up my confidence and wear them!
I might get budding love but I'm not desperate to get it.

My counter didn't have the tour de fabulous collection which made me sad =/ I'm dying to see how famously fab looks on the lips, theres no decent swatches on the net.

Just relaying what Danielle from MAC emailed me after I'd enquired about it via MAC chat. She said that's why it's not available via MAC.co.uk or on any of the distributionist websites. Though I have no counter near me to check so can't speak for stores.
maybe they're not stocking it on MAC's website. But stocking it in other stores? :S i dunno! i'm going to MAC in HOF tomorrow, so i'll let everyone know! :)

Did you specifically ask for Tour de Fabulous? My counter had no display for the lip pencils, they just plonked the pencils in loose with the permanent ones. I only saw them by chance, the SA didn't even know they were part of a new collection. I'm not sure about the glosses though. Pretty poor way to sell a new collection!

I didn't ask...now I wished I did. I did look at the permanent collection and saw no new shades for both the lipglass and lip pencils. My mac counter is in harvey nichols so they don't have much space. Might be why they didn't have tour de fabulous out. They had everything else though. Are you wanting one of the lipglasses sosdrielle? :)

Yeah, hopefully it's a store relase. I know selfridges, Debenhams and HoF don't have it online, so you may be right about it being a store thing?

I'm sorry you didn't get to see Tour De Force, really annoying when there's no swatches of what you want. I'm glad you liked the force of love l/s, it's very tempting to go back for it ;)

I tried to mail order lucky stripes from harrods, but was told postage would be up to 12.50 when i said i wanted to kmow how much exactly it would be i was told theyd have to ring me back, i already had to wait for them to call me back once. I told her not to worry. The more i try to buy it, the more i think i don't need it

No, they didn't have it in HoF either. Id say just give it a while, I bet it will turn up. I was told they weren't going to get Rare Exotic mattene and then they did. I was also told Winterized was sold out and they weren't getting more, and they did. I don't trust what they say. ;)

Yeah, hopefully it's a store relase. I know selfridges, Debenhams and HoF don't have it online, so you may be right about it being a store thing?

As for TdF, the counter at HoF had TdF and Too Supreme at the other end of the counter away from the other collections, so maybe you didn't notice the display.

Strangely enough, Innocence Beware is the first lipstick to sell out on Mac website.
hmm.gif

WMS also came back to Debenhams now from being sold out. I am trying to convince myself I don't need it.
SNJx, I ordered around 11 am, and both of FOL lipsticks I ordered got despatched. Strange that yours got cancelled, if you ordered them early in the morning.

I got my order confirmation e-mail at 10.23am, so not too early this morning. I'm just happy they've sorted it out for me, it's not right though that they are sending dispatch e-mails and then two hours later saying it's out of stock.

No. I just came away clutching my four lip pencils. I gave up buying lip glosses a while back as I never use them!

HoF lost out on some sales due to not putting the complete collections up yesterday. I ordered the one thing I wanted that they did put up, plus a brush I've wanted for a while, to get my 6 points per £, then I ordered some more bits from Debenhams (going through Topcashback, who currently are doing 5% cashback) and of course using my HoF card for the extra 1 point per £, and the bits that neither of them had (Fluidlines, Zen Rose and lip pencils) I ordered through MAC. I would much rather have been able to get them all from one place, though.

I spent more than I had planned, though, due the large number of collections, and also hearing that the Pearlglides were not going to be permanent after all. I had planned to buy them later in the year when I had a smaller order to place.

I have already received the despatch email from Debenhams this morning!

Good thing I have Boots points and Superdrug points with which to buy the Maybelline Tattoos when they come out. I think I'm going to give the Revlon lip butters a miss though - tempting, but I have so many other lip products. Boots' website is now advertising that the Revlon lip butters will be available 'within weeks'

Just seen this code for 10% off at Debenhams: FJ32 Valid until tomorrow, so if you haven't picked something off yet, now's the time. Wish I'd known about this though, I would've ordered some bits and bobs instead of picking everything up at the counter. But then, having said that HoF has a £20 voucher offer if you spend over £100 (for cardholders), so I can expect that to turn up with my next statement. :)

They posted another code for fb members rm94. Valid until Sunday. A bit too late though. FOL l/g and all Shop Cook lipsticks, but naughty sauté are already gone.

I wish I'd known about that Debenhams code too, Anita. As regards the HoF £20 voucher offer, I just hope that 'beauty' isn't one of the exclusions they refer to in the email. They usually say what the exclusions are on their offers, but they didn't this time.

There was a big sign right by the Mac counter about the £20 offer and the SA said I'll get it with the statement, so let's hope. I've just realised I never get HoF e-mails or letters about offers. Hmm, wonder why not?

It'll be great if that's so :)

If you go onto their website, you can sign up at the bottom of the page for their newsletter.

I've just checked to see if they've got all the MAC collections up yet, and they haven't! They have added every Fluidline except the 3 from Cook MAC to the Cook MAC page, though *shrugs*
