I went from 3 l/s to 1. I still cant make up my mind about the edes other than A Natural Flirt. I know I want Deliciously Demure and am now most likely to skip all the blushes. Smaller and smaller.....
It's like.. it's not exciting anymore? And now that we have seen the next collections... I would prefer buying Party Parot instead of Outrageously Fun lipstick!!

I might only get Dramatic Encounter lipstick, Raven khol power, 2 eye shadows. That's it! One month ago, I was ready to buy 3 lipsticks, 7 eyeshadows, 3 eye khol, 2 blushes.

Not sure if I want Mystery khol anymore.. anyone have a picture of this one on the waterline?

At my local Mac counter yesterday i did another pre-order for 2 of the fluidlines. I told the MUA that i wanted Catch My Eye and Little Black Bow. She repeated the item colors back to me and got them wrong. I told her no Catch My Eye is the taupe, silver looking one. She seemed very surprised that in the catalog they use, the pictures and names are not in the right order. She then said "uh oh this isn't good i have a feeling that a lot of customers who did pre-orders are going to get the wrong items".

I feel so bad for those who ordered judging by the catalog they have at the counter.

I think Stylishly Merry is a skip for me. Plum Dressing is a close enough Dupe for me if I really need something similar. Not as shiny... maybe reflective (I don't know the word I'm looking for) but it works for me. Yeah! One more thing off my possibility list. :)

So I have a feeling this collection is not going to pop up until Sun or Mon (or possibly not even until the announced online release date of Tue), but I can't bring myself to stop stalking. I feel like if I skip a night of refreshing the site every half hour, I'll miss it. I have a disease...
I'm afraid you are right.

Yep. I noticed that last week a Nordstroms. I cancelled my order and went back yesterday after swatching things at my pro store. So weird.

So I just did a live chat to see what story they would give me about the online release date, and I was told it goes up online on Monday. For those of you who don't have a calendar handy, that's the 22nd. Which is a different date than other people have been hearing. So the confusion continues. And when I asked if that was for both the regular site and Pro, I was told "I believe so. PRO usually launches several days before the regular site, but I don't see it launching today."

*sigh* And so I continue to stalk.

Unfortunately, the CS usually does not know much about Pro release dates.

Ya why is that?? Even when I ask about s certain collection they question it.... My girlfriend use to work for Mac and they told her it was ok to act like a bi.....tch. We are the ones who put their paychecks in hand. geesh!!!

How crazy is this? It's a good heads-up to check, recheck & confirm our purchases. Thanks!!

I'm not working full time in my licensed area right now. Not even PT but I do work special events if I am contacted to do them. My license is current and valid. That's what one of the requirements is. How would one even "prove" they are currently working on "X" number of clients a week/month? Pay stubs? A lot of industry workers are independent contractors. MAC also takes some sketchy "proof" that one works in the industry because not every state requires a license for every discipline. I do agree that they should limit quantities because obviously some pro members are not in the industry at all and just have eBay stores to stock from their Pro purchases. Seems like they are not trying to track these purchases to stop this abuse.
exactly, that's how it was the place i was working at. If i was still working there gave mac a business card from them or pay stub my ass would've got fired. So im glad mac does ask for a license because really you're a pro with a license especially in ny with out it you can't do much. I don't agree woth the abuse either.

I've actually called Pro in the past about something completely different and didn't find them very helpful either. I'm beginning to think that informed employees of MAC are mythical creatures. They must be hidden in a field somewhere with all the unicorns and dragons...

Monday is my birthday. I was hoping this collection would go up sooner. I'll be out all day Monday. I don't want to miss out. Augh! MAC. I'm still going to stalk the site. I just don't trust MAC.
Hello OctoberViolet - Monday is my birthday too! I have to work that day, I'm just hoping it goes up online before I have to leave the house - it's sooo difficult to focus on an order at work Happy Birthday!

I've just tried Dramatic Encounter, it's really beautiful ( between Musky Amethyst and Prince Noir with a gorgeous creamy texture, a very intense lipstick indeed ). I don't know what's coming next but I guess the collections are very pretty as usual.

Fingers crossed it will be released on Sunday on Pro.

I know this isn't the correct thread, but I was wondering if you got your Marilyn goodies from your mom and how do you like them? I don't recall seeing it mentioned in the Marilyn thread.
