I've always wanted one of the Le Metier de Beaute kaleidoscopes = particularly the eye kits - so was very happy to find the latest one in stock (Chauvet Pont d'Arc Kaleidoscope Eye Kit) at Zuneta just five minutes ago! And for some reason I got an automatic discount applied? A bit extravagant, but it really IS something that I'd always wanted, and never been able to get without paying the exorbitant prices on ebay :)

I've just been talking to MAC Customer Services, (having called to order a 184 fan brush) and apparently the only collection we are getting next month is Heavenly Creature, which is launching nationally on Thursday 5th.

I also found out that we have a Gone But Not Forgotten department here. I've previously been told we don't have it in this country. I'm probably the last one to know, though lol

I've not seen it on the website at all. It was when I asked the guy on the phone about a particular brush that he said was now discontinued, he went on to ask if I wanted to be put through to the 'Gone but not forgotten' department after I had finished with my order. Nobody else has ever suggested that. He put me through, and the recorded announcement said it was the Gone But Not Forgotten department, but they were busy and it said to call back later or leave my name, number and the item I was calling about.

Just been looking on the Debenhams website and they're now selling Art Deco cosmetics! Theres loads of products up in the New Arrivals section. Keep checking the Harrods and Selfridges websites, can't wait to order the Chanel gold powder, apparently the collection is out tomorrow.

I'm looking forward to the Dita Von Teese collection from ArtDeco. I'm glad there's somewhere else to buy them from when they do arrive in this country

Ah yes, 'Gone but not forgotten' that is quite a new feature to the UK site, I saw it the other day. About time I say, our friends in the US have had that privilege for years! They basically can try and locate items that might not have sold on counter, etc at least that is how I think it goes.

Do you guys mean the "Goodbye" section on the website? If so - that's been there for quite a while but I'm glad you all have found it. :)

No, this is something that the Americans have always had (or so it seems) but we haven't until now. "Gone but not forgotten" is for if you're looking for something that is no longer available online - you ask MAC and I gather they check around the branches to see if any of them still have what you're looking for.

"Goodbyes" is where you can see what MAC online still have in stock.

Ah yes - sorry I misunderstood. My brain isn't working too well (haven't been getting much sleep - clearly, it's 2am lol)

I know we've had GBNF for a little while because I remember being put through to them on several occassions. Weird we wouldn't have had it before now - I didn't know we never did. Shows how much I pay attention lol.

Just been on the phone to Harrods and ordered the Chanel gold powder and nail polish from the Bombay Express collection. Woohoo! :)

Can't wait for Heavenly Creature now, all the swirls are so pretty, hope it comes out on the earlier side and I can order from Debenhams or HoF on Monday.

Anitacska you're gonna absolutely love the powder its so pretty! I went to Selfridges in my lunch break and got one; passed on the nail polish because it was very similar to Peridot but without the green iridescence. The lady also told me that they will be getting the blue illusions d'ombre next month. I also went to MAC and got Have a Lovely Day lip and cheek colour and the new Tient Touche Eclat...its lovely and light and a good alternative to Chanel's perfection Lumiere and its better on the purse at £28.
I also cant wait for HC, there's a MAC counter at HoF near Bank which is on the way home so I'll be heading there after work next Thursday hehe!!
Anyway here are pics of the powder with and without flash!

No she just said next month, and also that they hadnt received news about the Fall 2012 collection yet. I will probably give the counter or boutique a call over the weekend and post the info!!

I forgot to mention before Dior summer mix collection of 4 glosses and 4 polishes also launched at Selfridges today but the colours were too bright for me so again I passed

No, but you can do a charge and send from either Selfridges or Harrods :) . The postage may be a little pricey but it would be cheaper than you going to pick it up in person by the sounds of things lol!!
