They might re-restock. which they did for many collections, including ED.

Pink Cult sold out before i gathered 150 bucks in my cart :( so..... cant get it now!
You can't wait that long. If it's restocked, you need to act fast. Why didn't you use the Pro shipping code?

Did anyone get Dynamic Duo 1? I saw someone do a look with it on their blog and it was gorgeous! IMO, Many MAC eyeshadows don't swatch well but when you put them into use they perform well.

I got it and it is gorgeous. It is definitely my fave of the 4 duos. The colors have amazing color payoff and they blend out really well. I wore it 3 different ways the first week I got it. I hate to enable you...LOL..but if you are remotely interested in it pick it up!

LOL and that's EXACTLY what you're doing, enabling me! haha.. I have Dynamic Duo 2 and 3. I actually did a look using Dynamic Duo 3 on my blog. I'll order DD 1 on Thursday along with a few other things. I couldn't get over the look that the chick did using the duo! I hope she doesn't mind me posting the link to her look but it's SOOO pretty!

LOL...it's funny but I saw her blog too when I googled Dynamic duo 1 and thought how pretty it looked! I like it because I figured you can get a really pretty look for night or day with just 2 shadows and it would be awesome to take on vacation to limit bringing tons of stuff.

But you had it, did it crack down completely? Try sign out to mac news with different address, it will work, or look for the news in the spam bin.

I'm surprized too. Everytime ED and TC are restocked I go to mac online to see if the lippies from this are restocked. But they never are

Kinda wondering when they will restock the lippies especially since Tres Chic and ED have been restocked twice now.....or did I miss it?!

OOOooooo, thanks for sharing! That's a beautiful look! I only got DD#3 so far. She does mention that the shades are close to Expensive Pink and Vibrant Grape, so maybe I'll try duping with those first... I am trying to un-enable myself! These collections beat my wallet up, and now I have to worry about Hey, Sailor!

According to this it is Expensive Pink.

And I have got a sample of Dynamic Duo 2 and the names on it are "Crystal" (permanent) and "Royale" (repromote from Fall Colour Collection) just as posted above.

LOL yes the look is soooooo pretty! I can definitely see the similarities of the first shade in DD#1 and Expensive Pink. Some bloggers gave DD#1 bad ratings but I think it's important to judge the product based on the performance and not a swatch. MAC shadows don't swatch well but once they're put into use they deliver. I have a look on my blog using DD#3!

Yea, I'm definitely gonna get it tomorrow. The look she did is perfect for night and it also reminded me of middle eastern makeup, which is one of my favorite styles of makeup. They love jewel-tone colors and purples, reds, pinks, and golds.

Woah! That is a beautiful look girl! I have Magenta blush and Pink Popcorn lippie... So, I am going to try this out! Thanks!!
I agree, I have shadows that swatch horribly that look wonderfully when used in looks. The Angel Flame Quad comes to mind. That pink shade was a nightmare, but I could always get it to look good on the eye. It just took extra effort.

I don't know if you guys can answer this question but...

I placed a Dillards order on 3 MAC Reel Sexy lipsticks (one for myself, one as a BU, another for swap), one of which I received 2 weeks ago. The other two are out of stock and they send me emails almost every other day stating how they're "searching all Dillards stores for my items and will send it to me when they find them"...basically I've been waiting 2 weeks for my remaining 2 Reel Sexy lipsticks and have not received it yet.

What should I do? Cancel the order? Or wait some more? Will MAC ever restock? Because if they do then perhaps they will give another shipment out to Dillards, Nordstroms, Macy's etc.?

Sigh, I just want my two lipsticks.

Thanks for re-sharing this info! I remembered it being listed somewhere. I have EP, Royale, Vibrant Grape...
I think I'm covered on dupes for these quads!
DD #3 is really nice though! Glad I grabbed it. I don't have either of those shades you listed for that one!
Thanks again for all the inside info doll!

Thanks! And yea it does to a little effort. Everything that swatches great doesn't perform well anyway. I don't even use my UD 15th Anny palette because the colors swatch great but they are TOO soft so when you blend them it looks like one mixed color. lol.

Hi guys. This collection is launching here next week and I was wondering what your must haves are now that you have had a chance to play with your goodies. My list so far is: Pink popcorn lipstick A couple of the cream sheen glosses (I love the formula) I think I will skip heroine cause I just bought violetta and I think I will skip the shadows too as none of them excite me and I think they are fairly dupable
