MAC Casual Colour discussion

[LV2EVOLVE]

LOL!

I wll not buy anyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy! J/K! I had to try these. They remind me a little of the Inglot cream blushes, but the texture looks different from the swatches online. I haven't seen them in person yet. Does anyone think the MAC formula is better? They need to be perm and expanded. I wish MAC would put out a Deck the Halls seasonal collection for Winter and "deck" the permanent line with awesome products like these. Hope you are listening MAC. Another idea from me to you

Does anyone know where I can get the stainless steel makeup spatulas?

You can get them from MAC Pro. But, an idea I have is just buying a good quality cuticle pusher just for the purposes of using it as a spatula. It's nice and sharp and can separate product well. Or, if you want a spatula that's more unique, you can try to purchase one from a laboratory supply company that sells products to the general public.

Hi everyone

I am having the same issue! Did someone get back to you yet? I haven't received the confirmation email either!

 

[bulbasaur359]

Hi, i just signed up yesterday and finally got the confirmation email to work. Just keep trying, it's probably something on their end.

Btw, this is my first post. Since this is the casual color board I have to mention that I ordered Out for Fun last night. I am looking forward to playing with it. I wish I had ordered another color too but ordered Sun Dipped, Sea Mist, Dear Diary, and You're Perfect Already along with it lol. I might pick one up next week tho when they hit the stores. Yes, I love shopping too much lol.

Edited to add: I caved and just ordered Weekend Getaway. Someone posted about them only being available on Mac.com so I used a free shipping code. It'll get here later than my other order but at least I won't get skipper's remorse if it sells out. Lol, I am crazy.

nope. still no confirmation email or response from the email i sent to the support@specktra address. boo.

as for melting issues, I worried about that so I came home to intercept them before they sat out very long....the one I had in my purse today hasnt melted either, but I work in an A/C'd environment so I can't say for sure whether they would get melty.

Maybe you should try to make it so that UPS holds it and you come pick it up?

 

[liesierre]

whoops, double post

 

[Baby1black]

Oh boy decided to order weekend gateway and keep it casual so that is five. I really want evening stroll but know I will not use it much. Will have to wait for more swatches.

 

[bulbasaur359]

Liesierre, I'm sorry it's still not working for you. I emailed support last night too and they haven't responded to me either. I would just keep trying but I know that it is annoying when they keep reminding you to do something you are doing. I hope it works out for you soon.

It's really only online? Not even stores?! Boooo!

That decides it then - skipping for sure if I can't swatch them in person.
It's a pity, but I won't get anything from Beth too - I love her music, but her collection leaves me stone cold.

Not sure if it'll be at counters, but the collection's already out in my local Pro store.

I don't know if it's available in stores, I was just referring to online shopping since I have to buy everything online. I have a Douglas giftcard, so I would've used that.
From what I heard it's not available on counters, but I'm not sure about stores. Maybe you can call yours and ask.

 

[bulbasaur359]

Thanks pp's for the info on whether it is in stores. I'm ok with ordering as I might get myself in trouble in store. I might look at them in store tho at some point.

update: oooh yay. finally got a verification email! *dances*

Great to hear things are working now. I think it was a general email problem as I did not get notification messages either.

hey sweetie. i am pleased that it is sorted out now. i'm not sure who gets the emails in that address but if you have any other issues just message me directly and i usually get back to people within 24 hours

this collection is out in the uk now and i think i'm going to get weekend getaway. it's such a pretty summery colour and i am desperate to try them. i shall order tomorrow. it won't make a difference ordering today because this is a long bank holiday weekend so my stuff won't be dispatched anyways

I totally forgot about this when I went to order someting off amazon last night and it said 1 day delivery would be on wednesday haha

 

[aradhana]

Well SO FAR

I only ordered Weekend Getaway. Yeah, but we all know how that goes. Love free 2 day shipping.

i only ordered evening stroll and out for fun.

but now i want weekend getaway....

are these for real not coming to the counters?

 

[lyseD]

I will not buy any, I will not buy any....

I'm saying the same thing to myself!

Last night in bed I was mentally going through my blush collection and realized I have bought nine MAC blushes since S3/C3!!! That's enough for now.

That might apply to us European girls only. From the colour story it's a regular collection for you.

 

[elegant-one]

I ordered Out for Fun, Evening Stroll and Keep it Casual. 2 day shipping. Can't wait to play with them. I wonder how much use I will get out of these since I prefer powder blushes and lip products where I don't have to use my hands, but I really like these colors. Better safe than sorry, right?

I think I want Out For Fun

here comes that slippery slope....1 by 1 by 1...
