MAC Strength Collection Discussion (December 2012)

[BriarRose]

Should I order Strong Woman?? I haven't seen any swatches yet...

If you can afford it, I would go ahead and order it now. Can always swap it if you don't like it. There's just no telling when it will sell out or when it would be restocked.

I'm sure it's a glitch, especially as Poised was sold out so fast as well. I don't think P would sell out too fast. MAC just need to refresh their stock.

Woot! I got it. Just called CS & she confirmed that my order did indeed go through. Crazy ordering for sure.

Yes I did right away. I just thought it was weird I could order it while it said sold out in the collection listing. We'll see. It says pending in my order listing.

elegant that happened to me with the 184 brush
it said out of stock but let me order it. next day i got backorder notification.

So sad that Pink Pigeon is sold out. I'll still stalk the site for a restock but gaaaahd this is disappointing.

Do you have Nubile? As Painterly is so flat, matte e/s usually do not work that well. Nubile is my preferred base for mattes as it has a bit of a sheen and the e/s clings much better to it.

i dont but ill play around with some other bases... i usually do good with mattes though that's my go to.

I have a lot of purple lipsticks too and I got a BU anyway. It's one of those colors I know I'm going to love, so I went with my instincts.

Yay! Merry Christmas hugs!!!

I thought the 287 was perm?

Nope. It's LE.

Me too! I always like your vids Crystalis007 What a stress for this collection. My guess is that they haven't received the full stock for the blushes and Pink Pigeon yet. In the past for some items it showed coming soon for days (like some of the electric cool shadows) and then they finally were available. Maybe it's the same here, but instead of coming soon it says sold out to hype the items even more?

One can hope that's the case!
