After seeing swatches of the teal pigment sets, I am thinking of cancelling my pre-order. The only one I really want is the teal in the set and others were patchy in texture.

I got one of the brush kits as a prezzie from my friend, but I don't really buy travel kits coz I still prefer the quality of the full size brushes from MAC. With this travel bag... I can fit my full size brushes nicely into it and can do away with the itty bitty travel size brushes when I go travelling. I never can get used to using a small itty bitty blusher brush or powder brush to brush my face...jus feels... funny. Juz me I supposed. Too used to full size brushes

I actually got the brush kit to use the case for my full size brushes. They do fit very nicely in the bottom pouch, but I'm afraid of putting the brushes in there without any protection. I'm also worried that the brushes could stain the satin lining. I haven't tried any of the smaller short handle brushes before, so I'm curious if I'm going to like them or not.

Gah! I want my home internet back! Here I am, sitting at the office, catching up on the GD thread!

I was only going to get Impossibly Sweet and Tall, Dark & Handsome from the Dutch website, which I did (grudgingly, if I might add).

I made a big (VERY big by my standards, but this collection was right up my alley) haul when the collex was released on the US site and had the stuff sent to the address at which a colleague will be staying during her short US trip. Then I realised I needed IS and TD&H too! Evil, enabling swatches!!!

Here's my haul (which I won't have between my greedy fingers until the end of next week)
- both skinfinishes
- SV blush
- OF, Beauty & Glamourdaze L/S
- FoF L/G
- all three fluidlines
- hanging bag
- pink lip set
- RTP, ANF, DB, S.Moment & S. Merry EDES
- smoky shadow set

Plus IS and TD&H from MAC.nl.

I've been a very bad girl. Sigh...

re: CP - thank you, you're very kind

. If MAC continues to charge silly prices then CPs are going to be the way to go for us European (and Aussie) girls.
Awesome haul!!!! nice that you have someone to get you the stuff here, with u$ prices!!!

Im doing the same thing! Skipping till the strength collection comes out and the après, well hopefully I don't get sucked into getting anything in between, I kinda like the lavender sounding blush but I'd have to test it. It does seem weird waiting that long lol Btw enjoy ur birthday have a fab day xoxoxo :bouquet:

I must say Dramatic Encounter rocks! It's so lovely & silky to apply, and the vampy eggplant-burgundy shade is ever so gorggg.
I'm going on a NO BUY, I've spent wayyy too much at MAC & Sephora recently. If Sephora has their customer appreciation sale
I will get a Clarisonic face wash, another brush head or two, and perhaps a foundation. I'm tired of keeping up with all the MAC collections
they are driving me nuts.

Curse those pics of the Lavish Rose set. I keep staring at BGC. I like all 4 actually. I could see layering the top two if needed for opacity issues. Curses lol. At least it's a good deal and I could use the cute hat box for storing something lol. My husband so doesn't get it either and is all like you don't need anymore make up blah blah blah.
O yes, I am pretty sure our husbands are brothers of a different mother. I cannot tell you how many times I have heard that about money/don't need makeup from my husband. My addictions are not appealing to him, but my 15 year old niece loves checking out my armoire and drawers.
