How does ebates work?

u sign up. u go to the site and they have a list of stores. you must open the link of whatever store u are purchasing from through the ebates website for you to get the cash back for your purchase. i think its after 3 months they send u a check for the money u have accumalated through purchases

I love that I can use it with Bobbi Brown!

Yes and Lancome, Laura Mercier and NARS! MAC needs to get on the Ebates train

Thank you everybody for the info about ebates this is very helpful for me because i do shop online alot and it looks like I'm the only one who doesn't know about it lol.

Wow....I did not know that these palettes contain so much less product

But nevertheless the colors are very pretty!!!

Just came across this review for the Neutral eye palette: http://www.musingsofamuse.com/2012/10/mac-fabulousness-neutral-eyes-palette-review-swatches.html.

If I have YR and don't mind the application, is DE necessary? I am trying to anti-enable myself but at the same time, prevent skipper's remorse. My list always changes, even thought I thought I was done hauling this collection! I'm going to check more stuff out later today and brought YR, but I have a feeling identical swatches won't keep me from buying it.

Well, I pretty much have all of them already. I'm more of a red lipstick person myself anyway, but the same thing applies really.

ALL of them!!!!

mrrebates.com is another option! It's not as popular but sometimes the cashback is higher there. I find ebates to be more convenient though.

If you don't mind the application, then no, Dramatic Encounter isn't necessary. However, the application of Dramatic Encounter is a lot nicer and more opaque than Yung Rapunxel. The benifit of Yung Rapunxel is that you can build up its intensity since it applies sheer. Lol, I'm no help! I'm glad to have both because I can apply them differently, but I don't feel the need to BU either one since I do have both.

Will you PM me the Ebates link? Thinking of signing up.

Those swatches show the same thing I said from the beginning about Feminine Edge. It's clumpy and doesn't apply smoothly. Using a primer did help it though. I still don't want to give up on it yet. I'm going to exchange mine for another one to see if it may work better.

Looking forward to and will await your further analysis. At this rate I doubt they'll sell out.

Were the pigments supposed to be released in stores today as well? I don't see them online yet.

TY I must have gotten it confused with the palette release date.

I've actually been using my Discover card for my Nordstrom purchases and other department stores lately. They have a current promotion of 5% cash back on department stores and online purchases, plus an additional 5% if you shop online through ShopDiscover. I'm getting back 10% total. That's main reason why I decided to not get a Nordstrom card. I feel like I get faster rewards using my Discover. I think it would take too long for me to reach the 2000 point level to get a Nordstrom note.

I got the Nordstrom card because the promotion offered an initial note at that time. I need to use it before it expires, so I'll be applying it to my GD pre-order.

Nope, it's Nov....

Dang it, I forgot the exact date again! I know it's early Nov. I need to close this forum and get back to work. It's too distracting.

Just called my local Mac store to put 2 glamour daze lippies on hold.. picking them up in a few

 

[singer82]

T's swatch of Mystery scares me. It's the only e/k I got. Did anyone else get it? Did you get the same result she did?

There are so many things coming out I still can't wrap my head around all the dates. Story of my life I'm doing payroll while browsing and I keep getting distracted.

FE looks terrible in some pics ... It looks like it applies uneven

It looks super patchy, and I'm upset because I saw it in person but I was so in love with the color that I didn't even bother to swatch it and now I regret that I'm going to pick up my order today so I'm going to try it out and if its patchy and clunky which I definitely anticipate I'll just be getting a blacktrack

The pigment sets are set to be released on November 7th I believe.
