All right. Ladies & gents. I just wanted to let you know & give a shout out to Maconline.com. They are re-sending my order due to the f'ing UPS error. I'm relieved that I don't have to go to this stranger's apartment to ask for my package now. If, by some chance after I receive my new package I decide to go to this stanger's apt. for my old package, then I will have bu's of the lippies. I have a feeling this person who took in my package is keeping it for himself/herself. They had four days to contact me or leave it on my door step and they didn't. I'm still pissed about the whole ordeal, but so thankful for MAC to do this for me. I just hope my future orders won't get screwed up like this one did.

The Manager at the shop where I go (65 miles each direction) is a wonderful person and she told me to call at 11:00 on Thursday, October 4th because she could not sell anything from the collection before that date. I called at 10:58. Of course. The Manager told me the store only got two each of the shadows and the beauty powder - what??? Anyway, I ordered and received the Showgirl, Preferred Blonde, Perfect Cheek and Forever Marilyn. The lippes are all too dark for me. I also ordered three brushes that I needed. Anyway, my box arrived at my doorstep today! The unhappy thing was; I had to mow for at least 90 minutes (to take advantage of the light and sunshine), then I had to make chicken enchiladas for my hubby's dinner before I could even take a peek at the box, but because I had done all that mowing, I had to shower before doing the cooking, then fix the enchiladas. It was 8:30 before I could open the box!!! But - I was finally able to sit down and enjoy my box from MAC - LOVE everything. Can't wait to enjoy it in the morning.

I cant imagine the lines and mobs most of you have had to deal with. The Mac counter I went to had one woman with a stroller and it looked like her mother and another child that was hers. I was second in line (well she wasnt in line but she was waiting first) and was willing to let her get her stuff ahead of me but she stopped to swatch stuff which surprised me. The third woman that came got in line immediately and bought one of each l/s plus an ext LG and a FM. Once she got in line so did I. I only bought FM, DA, and SG at the counter. Another woman came while I was in line and looked GRUMPY. She looked like she had wet hair so I am sure she rushed to get there.I have my blushes and LG coming to me soon I hope. The lady at the nordstrom counter said she would send them but I have no way to track it.

So idk if u ladies know this Or if someone already mentioned this but Nordstrom is doing "wish lists" At least my nordtrom mac is Basically we fill out a form asking for the products we want and if they get another shipment they will contact you and let you know I did it yesterday when I showed up and everything was sold out

So happy for you Octoberviolet. I still hope the person that took your package has a change of heart and decides to return it to you.

Anyone have an extra of Love Goddess that they'd be willing to sell? It's really the only item that I want from this collection! I got to swatch it today at my Macys MAC counter and I love it. They wouldn't sell the tester to me because I guess they have to destroy it. So weird because I know other people were able to buy testers!

I feel as if I'm the only one who doesn't LOVE Love Goddess. It's pretty, but it goes more pink than red on me. Maybe I just need to get used to it. However, I love DA, SI, PB, and the BP. PB does feel a bit more stiff than the regular VP formula, but the color is SO gorgeous and I used it with Wedge and Espresso today for the perfect Marilyn eye. I would love to find a BU of the BP, but I'm starting to lose hope. However, I use Careblend powder and Guerlain Teint Beige Meteorites regularly, and it gives me a bit of a similar effect - a bit more of a sheen, but it's pretty nonetheless.

Ahh okay, I was converting it from UK to Us dollars (I bought a back up from the UK myself). It depends on how much You think You'd use it. I almost bought a 3rd BP but stopped at 2 because I can always get the Guerlain Meteorites by that point.

That is what I was thinking when everyone was snatching up the BP yesterday here. Most everyone was way darker than me ( I am a nw15 oddity here) and I fear many of them will be disappointed if they were looking at it for a useable product or full face powder. I just hate the thought of a ton of them being returned for that reason.

Yep, I hate the thought too.

So, LADIES. If you buy the BP and don't want it - LET US PALE LADIES KNOW. We'll likely buy it off you!
