I stopped by two Nordstrom MAC counters today and unfortunately was unable to pre-order the blushes =(
However, I was able to swatch some of them and I'm glad I did. Prior today, I couldn't fall in with the hype surrounding Modern Mandarin. I'm only dipping my toe into the waters of bright blushes, and I just couldn't imagine MM looking good on me. But after today, MM is my ABSOLUTE favorite!!! Loved it so much and it blended out beautifully on my skin
I thought that Immortal Flower would be the shade for me, but it (and Pink Tea) was way too light on my skin.
Still loving FoJ, though it's a tad lighter than I was expecting. Peony Petal has moved up to a "maybe" on my list and Lovecloud remains there as well.
Ended up making (ANOTHER) appointment for a makeover, LOL. I really hope that these blushes show up early on Nordstrom.com , like the Vera and S3C3 collections. If not, then I'll just pick up the Reel Sexy stuff at the MAC store and use my Nordstrom GC for the Tres Cheek blushes.

I am still debating love cloud and immortal flower! Mac guy help? I have enough blushes to last a lifetime and am nc20

I think they have all the collections listed as a "Reel Sexy" launch. I asked specifically about the Tres Cheek collection and the MA at Nordies kept insisting that the only collection coming out was Reel Sexy. When I mentioned that it was an all blush collection, she said "oh, well Reel Sexy has A LOT of blushes".

Ugh, I hate not being anywhere near a MAC counter. Waiting for this to go online, looks like I'll be stalking this site and MAC obsessively! I'm still not settled on what I'll be getting. MM and FoJ seem like definites. PP is really pretty in the swatches on previous pages though. I know I'm getting Pink Cult from Reel Sexy too. How many blushes does one girl need? I just picked up BoA at a CCO this past week while I was on vacation too! So much for saving money!

I think I might decide to skip Full of Joy, when I want purply cheeks, I just blend Go For It Lipstick on my cheeks and put some Azalea Blossom on top, and I don't know if the orangey blushes would work on my very pale, cool toned skin so that could be more money for Reel Sexy. Now I just have to decide what I want from that...so far my list is down to...oh about 85% of the collection.

I saw four collections that are coming out April 5th at the Bay -- and they had product for all of it. Tres Cheek, Extra Dimension, So Reel/So Sexy and the skin primer and balm. They even let me put aside all my choices. You should call again and ask someone else. I'm sure if my Waterloo store is getting them all Yorkdale would too.

I'm in the Portland area, too. I went in to the Nordstrom at Clackamas Town Center and pre-ordered some items yesterday. The guy working there told me my items would be ready for pickup on the 5th. Either the MUA said the wrong date, or maybe they're getting an additional shipment closer to the 15th?

I feel so silly--- I have no problem being on top of ordering off the website... but I think this is the first time I'm going to start making the rounds at my local counters and seeing if I can preorder in the store :X I don't know-- having that sense of security of paying for it up front makes me feel better about it xD!

I can only reserve products at my MAC store, but not pay for them in advance as they are not in the system yet. It would be good though, as it gives a sense of security and entitlement, as you said.
I think Nordstrom let you pay in advance, I might be wrong though.

Cmon Mac!! Put all this beautiful collections up on Pro so I can see more swatches before the collection launches here ^^^
I still don't know when and IF Tres Cheek will launch in Italy though

That makes sense. I know the ones downtown garner a lot more business than the outer city Nordstroms. They probably get more stock, too! When the Posh Paradise collection came out, I returned an extra Paint Pot that I accidentally ordered and swapped it for Stunner blush at the Pioneer Place Nordstrom. I was shocked they still had Stunner in stock!

Just placed my order on Pro! It went up about 5 minutes ago. Hope everyone hauls what they want! I picked up Imortal Flower, Modern Mandarin and Pink Tea. Happy shopping. Oh, I had to look under individual products to find them.
